  1. I will have a look and see. if I am fit enough after the Friday I might just do the parkrun.
  2. I'm training for the London marathon at the moment, you are not the only one who likes running. I would of ran part of it with but I don't get there until the Friday. Hope it goes well and you should definitely do it for TACC.
  3. Bzzzz, it does make you think what would be enough money to sell your ticket? I'm not sure what mine would be, as I have travelled a Hell of a lot over a lot of years to finally get to a tournament.
  4. Thanks. We have match tickets. Do we pre book or just take our chances at the station?
  5. Hi I'm another one staying in Mannheim. It looks like we are not on any of the free rail travel lines. So it's best to book return train to Cologne and Stuttgart or is there a way of using the free lines, then booking the train for part of the journey?
  6. Cheers Noctonjock, had a busy and a bad day yesterday and thought it was Thursday.
  7. What channel is the draw on?
  8. I looked at this and thought not too bad. We are going for 12 nights and paying around £1000 but not staying in Stuttgart or Cologne. We are also flying to Vienna. If we got direct flights to Munich and different hotels then it would be another £300 to £500. Saving the money allows us to go to Amsterdam and a few £ in the beer kitty.
  9. As much as people including myself complain about players changing their nationality, nothing will change. Even some of the current squad are what I would say not Scottish. I have decided just to support all that play for us and leave what is right and wrong to the ones who make the rules and pick the team.
  10. We all know SC is saying one thing but Carver is saying the opposite. I don't think SC will care what people say if he does pick any of the none Scots and drops squad players. We might have a moan but if they do well at the euros then nobody will care.
  11. I hate to say this, but being realistic there might be a few more options with players, if the few that are rumoured do change and want to play for us. I'm not saying I agree with it, just saying if they did, it would put Shankland and a couple of others further down the pecking order. The next few friendlies will be when we find out.
  12. Watched the Brighton game and that was the best I have seen Gilmour play for a while. When not on the ball, his tracking players in the middle and breaking up play was spot on. When he had the ball everything he seemed to do was the correct decision. If you get the chance have a look at the nutmeg he did in the first half.
  13. Fly into Zurich then train to Munich. Staying 3 nights in Munich then 8 nights in Mannheim. I thinks it's around 90 mins from cologne and 40 mins from Stuttgart. Not booked any trains yet or flights home, but think I can get flights home from Stuttgart for £90. So far around £750
  14. If people or what you call the elite are complaining about not having first shot at the cheaper tickets, why have they never complained about the sale of home tickets? There is a different price between stands and not everyone gets in the stand they want. These tickets go on sale to everyone at the same time, so a person on high points could miss out on the cheaper stand tickets if all the low pointers got in first. As a lot of people have said the only thing you are guaranteed with your points is a ticket if your point total is high enough, not the right to the cheaper tickets. The blame is definitely not the SFAs (I don't think I have said that before as it usually is) but totally down to uefa.
  15. I haven't read all of this topic, so I may have missed it. When it comes to sitting together, can you put in for individual games. I got the same price ticket for 2 games as my mate but not the 3rd game. I have looked but not seen anything.
  16. How are the tickets priced? Are all tickets for the supporters club members £50 or is there going to be a mad rush to get the cheapest tickets. I read they can go as high as £700 but hoping all tickets through the SFA are £50.
  17. Hi we are travelling from Munich on the Monday. Where is a good place to stay close to cologne and also easy to get to from the game. Thanks for any help
  18. I have been wondering if our coaches are good enough at youth level. We seem to have had a few players that have played youth level for us but not stayed with us. We also had Hicky turn down playing for the u21 to get more time with his club. Are players like Anderson turning us down thinking our setup is rubbish. He maybe a bad example but just looking at him as he is the latest one. I know a lot has been said about Gemmill not being good enough and holds the players back, plays the wrong formation,players in wrong positions ect ect. Are the coaches good enough at our other youth teams? Let alone the performance schools...
  19. Looking for 1 ticket for Norway game. Anywhere in the ground.
  20. Not a bad interview, I wonder how long he will stay as a coach? He did mention that he wants to go back over there. It would be nice to know who the players are from the MLS with a Scottish connection. Does anyone know who he was talking about
  21. Best comment on this topic. We all grew up playing football in the street/field and you played knock out football with your mates. You knew what player you wanted to be, what league team you supported and what country you supported.
  22. I bit I don't get is Clarke saying he has not spoken to him. It makes Clarke's statement about him leaving the last squad with an injury a lie Now from Anderson's point, if he is undecided and is waiting to see if he gets into their team, then sorry its a no from me. Before anyone makes a comment on we already have a couple of players that Scotland were not there first choice (we have had loads over the years). I will support every player when they play for us but they will not get the same respect if I met them in the street compared to the other players.
  23. OK I've had a few days to think about it. Personally I didn't go to the game (no holidays left) and saved them for the qualifiers. This game just didn't interest me. Now I was hoping what should of happened, is we didn't play them we should of played the current world champions. We could of used this game to say the inventors of international football against the world's best team. Used this to promote us not our ugly neighbours. On the game I still think we did everything on Friday to make sure of the win and some of our players just didn't get up for this friendly. It would of been better to rest some of the starting 11 and give some of the subs a game.
  24. It's a shame maguire isn't starting, would of loved to hear the abuse he would of got.
