“I don’t know the club stance, but if you take me out of the club at this minute, just being a Celtic supporter, I would want all the tickets we can get – the allocation that’s available to us under the rules.

“I assume that would be forthcoming. I thought that the Old Firm fixture lost a little bit in the sense that the full allocation was not given, for whatever reason.

“I don’t know historically what it was. I’ve got kind of an idea, but it doesn’t really matter.

“That did lose a little bit of one of the great fixtures in European football, if not the world.

“But at least there’s some fans coming back and it makes a bit of a difference.

“To get the full allocation as we did, going to Ibrox and having the side to the left full of Celtic fans, was always gratifying.”

Meanwhile, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain could make his debut against Livingston on Wednesday and key defender Kieran Tierney could be fit despite a suspected broken nose.

“He’s looking pretty good,” O’Neill said about former Liverpool and Arsenal midfielder Oxlade-Chamberlain, who signed as a free agent last week.

“I haven’t picked the squad yet, but there’s a possibility of that.

“Kieran came off with a suspected concussion [against Dundee] – I think he broke a bone in his nose. But he’s OK and I think he wants to be available.”
