  1. Hi I have one away end ticket for sale. Section 123. Face value. If anyone is interested.
  2. We are staying in madrid on the Wednesday. Some hotel called 8 rooms. It's meant to be close to the train station. We are on the 11-10 train on Thursday morning. It was earlier but has been put back 20mins. I can't wait. I'm 62 and it's my first trip to watch Scotland abroad.
  3. Try looking at the away games thread
  4. We are Scotland and so are the Lassies. Its the only name we need
  5. I don't think what's happening with the Saudis is too much to worry about. If all these players had gone to the Spanish or Italian league most folk wouldn't have batted an eyelid. In Scotland the gripe was always that Celtic and Rangers were hoovering up all the young talent stifling the opportunity for the rest of the club's to grow. Now Aberdeen, Hearts and Hibs have started blood some young guys and sell them on and hopefully get a sizeable add on bonus. Quite a few of Europe's League's Portugal,belgium, Spain and France have benefited from signing young talent from South America and Africa. The time to worry is if the Saudi's start recruiting the young talent before it gets to Europe. Every club outwith the elite hope to find a young talent and sell them on. It could be beneficial for scottish football really. If say a club in Scotland has a talented young right back and an English or Italian club comes in and signs him for decent money and then flogs their 28 year old right back to a Saudi club for big money what is wrong with that. The hard bit is hoping the Scottish club chairmen don't undersell the talent.
  6. Alex Jones off the one show. Her voice goes through me. Kevin mcleod used to be OK but the more popular the show got the bigger his head got.
  7. Anderson should be asked to join the squad get together in Spain prior to the games in June. If he doesn't want to go then forget about him. If he accepts then he might get the feeling of being part of something special and nail his colour's to our mast.
  8. I have always loved sport. I have had a go at Football, Rugby League and Cricket and I loved playing them all. Unfortunately I was absolutely shite at each and every one. In fact the only thing I have ever been good at was Hurling. And that was Hurling abuse.
  9. John McGovern Ken McNaught Alan Evans Two never capped and the other only 4 I think. Maybe they just peaked at the wrong time but all three were English first division and European cup winners. If only we had guys like them now.
  10. I was thinking the same on Wednesday. When Austin Macfee came in our set pieces improved so well done A Mac. But surely defending set pieces should be part of his remit. Unfortunately for us our defenders are better known for how they bring the ball out of defence than actually defending. All our game plan seems to be about when we have the ball so when we come up against teams who are good at closing down we are stumped. All three of Ireland's goals were down to poor defending two individual and one as a team. It is obvious that there is something missing in the squad whatever it is it needs to be forgotten for now. The next couple of days is where the coaching staff must earn there corn. If any of the team are either physically or mentally fatigued they need dropped. We need 11 fit hungry players who are willing to burst a gut for 90 minutes. It doesn't matter what team or what division they play in. They are all full time professionals so should be fit and skilled enough to take on Armenia. A win on Tuesday and then come September they can come back fully fit and recharged and show the Irish that yesterday's result was a fluke.
  11. I got the bus up last week. There was a bit of a queue this was more down to folk paying and tossers just going straight to the front when a bus pulled up. They filled one and off it went then another came down. It didn't take long to get to Hampden and there were plenty buses waiting after the game. I haven't seen anything about today's game though. I have emailed first Glasgow but haven't heard from them as yet.
  12. Thanks for that. I had tried a couple of times but got nowhere. I tried just now it it has worked. Whether I get a refund is another story.
  13. Hi guys. Has anyone ever dealt with Trainline regarding refunds for cancelled train. I am not really Tec savvy so I am not sure whether I am not doing the process correct or if they are just making it too complicated so you give up. Any help will be very welcome. Thanks in advance. Ian
  14. I can't see it being the fifth it would screw up all the nations league games in June. Armenia on the 4th would be off. Ukraine to accommodate the final which would presumably be on the 8th or 9th. Ireland away is meant to be the 11th so that would have to be pushed back and also Armenia away. It should be played on the 4th with the final on the 7th. The two postponed games can be fitted in in September/ October.
