Have to agree, we were pretty impressed with ticket prices to members over the last 2 years ,even if the team have been poor . Holding the memberships to £40 is a good deal when you add in your £5 discount for every match ticket. The playoff prices are brilliant , allows us to go for the the Norh Stand, normally it's the cheaper West we go for .

Thanks Stitch.

Sounds cheap Stitch, where are you flying from?

Sounds interesting, but going to be a logistical nightmare confirming the destination with 4 days notice . Think we need Davie Provan involved!

It's a one off final so surely we have the right to get a 50/50 split like any cup final (not that we need that amount) Still think it should have been a neutral venue.

Don't fancy our chances if the final is in Belgrade but optimistic if it's in Norway . Didnt find the stadium in Oslo to be very intimidating last time we were there, even if we did get gubbed.

You're a total "Dafty", I think there are only 2 Russia and 6 Belgium tickets for sale on this board and they are all for South or North stands , why would a harvester buy the dearer tickets if they may not be able to sell them on . Also , how do you know that these tickets were bought by members ? Bit of an insult to the few guys selling the tickets.

Automated turnstiles using bar codes on tickets are being installed at Hampden for the Euros , but there is no way you can check passports or membership cards at the same time, that is a silly suggestion . With no bars allowed in the ground thousands of fans turn up at the ground 15mins before ko.. I think Cathcart is a bit worried about a problem that barely exists, you have to be a true Scotland diehard to buy tickets for some of the recent Scotland performances, these people deserve a reward for putting their hands in their pockets and turning up ,not massive delays getting in .

Very much in favour of the point for home games , bit of reward for turning up on a cold Monday night and might help me to get a ticket for Euros, if we qualify .

I don't get the moans about pricing, we paid £22 each for our tickets which is £2 cheaper than the last Premier League game I attended at Easter Road.. I think kids are about a fiver and I know schools got free tickets for previous games . So the SFA seem to be trying their besr as far as pricing is concerned . Looks like close to 20000 sold so hopefully over 25000 at the game, not brilliant but I dread to think what it would have been had Eck still been in charge .

Brilliant news, he's been the standout for the job for almost 2 years, mystified as to why we wasted £1000000 on Big Eck . He might take a couple of games to get the team to play the way he wants but am sure better times lie ahead. Thats 12 tickets just bought for Cyprus game .

Does Ian Maxwell not own a mobile phone, can someone show him how they work and get the call in to Steve Clark ASAP? What he has done at Kilmarnock taking them from bottom of the league to Europe in 18 months is pretty impressive , as is the style of play which would suit the Scottish team . There is no excuse for not at least sounding Clark out , why do we need interim managers when the club season is almost over ?

I don't understand why the SFA didn't at least sound out Clark a month ago when they knew McLeish was on his way ?. Clark is the standout candidate when compared to the others who have been mentioned and seems to have the backing of most of the TA .If Ian Maxwell doesn't contact him soon it is just going to piss Steve Clark off and he will tell them to stick it just as happened with Michael O'Neill.

So what's worthwhile about pensioner Bruce Arena, Erzat? And by the way I would rather have had Bruce Arena than Alec McLeish after Strachan got the heave , I would probably rather have had ErzatThistle come to think of it . That's how highly I rated Eck .

Who's this guy 67 year old American Bruce Arena who the BBC website are saying is now a favourite with the bookies? His knowledge of Scottish football and our players must be zero, how does that qualify him to get the job ??

Clark is the standout candidate from the list.

Steve Clark says today, he might be interested but hasn't heard from the SFA. Why hasn't Ian Maxwell sounded him out , or has he got to wait for the next board meeting in a months time to get his masters permission ,by which time it will be too late .

Steve Clark for me, he has done brilliantly with a group of bang ordinary players, no offence meant to Killie fans. Scotland have some pretty decent players who just need proper tactics and organisation, similar to what has brought success to Iceland and N. Ireland . Clark fits the bill .

Have to agree with everyone ,bar that UKIP guy who wants to keep McLeish on into the summer. McLeish has to go NOW, he has no redeeming features as Scotland manager, he has been a total disaster . I feel sorry for the players who don't understand his system or tactics ,if he has any? We actually have some quite decent players, but Eck is never going to get the best out of them . He should have gone a month ago,, what has Ian Maxwell been doing ? I can't see more than 15000 at the Cyprus game if he is still in charge . With a new manager and a Saturday game the crowd could hit 25000 to 30000.

Patrick v Hearts in the cup at Firhill, of the 18 in the Hearts squad only 3 were Scots ,McLean age 35 , Berra 34 and Soutar. What happened to all the promising young Scottish players we saw at Hearts last season?

Was with the Rob Duff squad on bus 8, many thanks to the 2 bus stewards and of course to Davie, a super slick operation..

Well said Edinburgh TA, our members are 100% behind your demand that Alec McLeish and the board at the SFA must go now .

Any ideas what the fanzone consists of and will it be licensed to sell beer , because Davies bus arrives 3 hours before kick off, could be a long 3 hours if not ? I read somewhere that bars near the ground do not sell alcohol on match days . Ted's gig could be the best option ?

Looking like tickets will be sold out by Monday, leaving hundreds who have booked up pretty frustrated. We have about 20 going in our 3 groups, about half havent got enough points for a ticket. I don't blame the SFA but think they have underestimated numbers going, perhaps they should have spotted that Davy had almost 30 buses booked even before tickets came out and I think another 5 going from Bologna. Shouldn't be a problem however as the stadium holds 6500 and has never been full, typically only a few hundred locals turn out to matches. Northern Ireland got an additional allocation when they played there so the SFA is bound to have an option on additional tickets, the last thing they will want are lots of ticketless supporters outside the ground .
