Nowhere in the SSC membership T&Cs does it state that accruing more points will give you access to cheaper tickets. Sales always open to points brackets determined by how many tickets have been allocated. If the SSC had decided to tier the sale further where would they draw the line? Would UEFA even allowed them to do this? I suspect they wanted the tickets gone ASAP.
Changing the terms of SSC membership at the last minute to suit “the elite” would not have been fair on people with 12-22 points as they may have went to more games if they had known the change was going to happen.
If the SSC decide to change the rules then we will all need to accept it but until then “the elite” will just need to suck it up and accept that going to more or less every game only guarantees you a ticket and not a cheap one.
Surely “the elite” would want a better view at these games anyway rather than slumming it behind the goals?
For context I have quite a high number of points but do not consider myself part of “the elite” and I do not think I should have been guaranteed a cheaper ticket ahead of a 12 pointer.
Well said 👍🏴

Buy to sell them on. Non TA members are chomping at the bit for tickets.
And what about the members on less than 11 hopefully waiting on a glimmer of a chance further down the line! 🥹

A lot of folk have to take time off for games at Hampden as well, there has to be some system that rewards effort, cost & time watching Scotland & it’s as fair as it can be now.
Correct I’m on arran and havnt missed a home game in years even back to the dark days of 8000 or so there on a pissing wet November night getting roundly pumped as per! Also live on arran so every home games an away game, 2 half days, ferry fares, train fares hotel etc etc etc oh and a couple of blue lagoons!!!!
wasnt that long ago there’s was no reward for homes games so I’m all for rewarding loyalty sorry! -

Booked this morning Edinburgh to Munich on the Thursday before opening game back on the Monday due to work 🥲 hotel 15 minutes outside Munich centre and next to rail station £800 all in so not too bad, just need tickets to go to 11 pointers on Wednesday as opening game would be awesome!

How solid is this guy! Positioning is unbeleivable, I know he’s not had too much to do since he started but my god what he’s done so far Is faultless! Spreads confidence…

Just looking at possibilities last night, anyone else looking at ferry from hull to Rotterdam then train to cologne as a base! Cologne lovely and not counting the ferry price about £120 all in!!

Just wondering after todays events what’s the chances of either the Ukraine or Ireland games being postponed, maybe annoy some for asking but with ferry’s trains n hotels booked it’s worth considering

A lot of talk about Clarke leaving or staying.. should he go, who would you like to see step in?
Obvious candidate for me looks like McInnes..
Anybody got a left field suggestion?
You can’t be serious surely! Major backward step!

The love in with Clarke is bizarre. McLeish got us to the Euros playoffs and Clarke got us over the line. Other than that he's fucked the euros, fucked the last nations league, fucked the Ukraine play off and fucked this tonight against a team that has only ever scored 2 nations league goals.....with a better set of players than any of his predecessors.
If that was McLeish tonight everyone would be up in arms, but apparently we're making progress 🤔
You forget strachan!? Up in rankings and a calender year undefeated and got sacked! How many countries would do that!!!
-
Similar to euros no doubt, if ur not on 14 / 15 plus points you’ve nae chance!

Not sure best thing to do but usual gash problems at 10am!!!!
total waste of time trying, same every time. 😞 got the package but be nice to have got an extra one for my boy.

Me n my mate going from Edinburgh via Paris booked it a while back on the Thursday, £400 each to Munich n got digs for £300 each in nice hotel 15km from city centre, train 2 minute walk from digs into centre, just staying 4 days in Munich so didn’t bother about other games and hassle of transport, tickets to opening game purchased, work won’t allow weeks away I’m afraid!
canny wait.
