Senegal is spoken as the "away" game in March and Costa Rica the "home" game. Plus what happened to Argentina in Morocco in March. Looks like i'll just have to lie on the beach instead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really cannot see us playing two back-to-back friendlies. Apart from Italy and France 2 years ago, which was in June (end of season), when was the last time we done that?

They'll be not much time for an early bird offer, then full price offer, then new members before March. There won't be an early bird offer. They need as much cash as possible for the new managers release fee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still to come is Iran, Georgia and Faroe Islands to complete the great kick in the Scottish football history baws memorial games in 2018.

DoonTheSlope Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 If the Senegal game gets the go ahead on the reported dates then I'll definitely be laying on an extra night in London and take in the Australia v Colombia game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pittodrie usually sees a game every 2-3 years or so. Reckon that's them had their whack. Intercontinental fixture I reckon they could justify Hampden under normal circumstances although obviously we can't be playing there at the minute.

DoonTheSlope Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 Why the need to make an announcement about a forthcoming announcement? They seem to enjoy making a big song and dance about nothing. Holding major events for strip launches and past qualifying draws etc. It's friendly games we're wanting to know about asap Just tell us who we are playing as soon as the contracts been signed. Us, the fans which keep them afloat have a lot of organising to do in terms of getting our holidays from work then there's the travel Why do they have to make a big deal about things which other nations just announce without any fuss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Le_God_4 Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 Costa Rican press saying that they have arranged to play us in Scotland on Tuesday 23rd March. No stadium or city mentioned yet though. Hopefully be at Easter Road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoonTheSlope Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 If ever you needed proof that the SFA cater predominantly for the west coast fans then this confirms it. There'll be an announcement on the same day of the Edinburgh derby, meanwhile everyone else gets the opportunity to bag the cheap flights while us followers of the capitals club get shafted while we are supporting our clubs Id bet that if it was the New Firm derby tomorrow then this announcement would be announced at a more convenient time, on saying that most of them support England and Ireland's two sides Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Costa Rican articles don't mention our other games, just that they are also playing Tunisia a few days later. Looked at a few different sources but none of them mention a location for our game yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
