Unless there was only a couple of hundred left and they sold them after that tweet?
Either that or we’ve had to send unsold tickets back to Belgium?
I’d be surprised if we couldn’t sell out 4,200 tickets for this game. I know home support has dwindled and our campaign got off to the worst possible start but half the guys you see on away trips are there for the swally and don’t seem to care about the football that much.
There was circa 1000 left when they went on sale to 0 pointers. Unless there are loads of new members who want to go on their first away trip, most of these will have gone unsold.
Even given the general apathy i'm pretty surprised we can't sell 4200 as well.

What are you basing that on and why would they do that?
I am basing it on this.
I'm assuming they have stopped sales in order to process and send out tickets prior to the game, but who knows.

Only got back from work yesterday to find the 4200 ticket allocation has now sold out after speaking to the SSC 😭😭. Looking for three tickets for the Scotland end if any avaliable so please keep me in mind 👍🏻
In failing that is there a preferred section to buy in the Belgium end?
Cheers
99% certain they didn't sell out, they just stopped selling them.

I need to pick up pre-bought tickets up at Hampden which I have never done before (always had delivered). Planning to be there around 5ish. Does anyone done similar before and know if the queues are likely to be quite big by this point (longer than a 30 min wait)? Hoping not so I can squeeze in a pre match pint! Cheers.
There will be minimal queues at 5pm for picking up, definitely not longer than half an hour so you should be fine.

Same for me - that irritates me (I'm being polite) - two pick up times no where near where the game is actually being played and only one right before the match in the town where the game is being played !!!! OK I know loads are flying to Tirana but there's also a fair few flying in to Podgorica and surely there'll also be a good crowd wanting the be in Shkoder the day before the match.
I try not to have a go at them (that's too easy and it's not the people on the ground's fault) but could it be that the SFA weren't as clued up as the supporters and had Tirana arrangements and hotels booked up before the actual venue was announced ???? Nah, surely not !?

Don't know if you're joking but i will roll with it... by playing Robertson in holding midfield (a position he has never played, btw) you take away his single greatest attribute. His engine and ability to get up and down the outside and cross the ball would be utterly wasted.
If you were to play one of the fullbacks there it would be Tierney, although i would argue that would be pointless as well.

Food:
- Mediterranea (laid back tapas/mezze affair as G-Man says sometimes has live music and stuff)
- Brea (bit more upmarket but decent value for money)
- Green Gates Indian (best in Stirling)
Drink:
- Settle Inn (wee bit out the way, old fashioned pub...fire on and dogs at your feet type place)
- Nicky Tams (live music on a fair bit, plenty locals outwith the summer)
- Curly Coo (owner is a bit mental, loads of whiskies though)
If all else fails just head to the Fubar.

Anyone have any idea what the difference in seat is between the £8 and the £4 tickets? Other than about 5 pints!

The way i read it is that all tickets are now £4?

Yeah, I'm a bit of an optimist, but I'm getting to the point that I think it's time to give up on following his career. Very sad.
The lad is 22, has played over 150 games of professional football, has stuck it out in Portugal when it would have been easier to come back to Scotland, has learnt the language, by all accounts loves his life there and still has 2 years left on his deal with Sporting. To say it's "very sad" is a total overreaction. It wasn't long ago that people were writing off John Souttar because he wasn't physical enough for Scottish football. Give the lad a chance...he might not go on to get 100 caps and play for Barcelona but i'll stick my neck out and say he'll still have a very decent career.

Perfect, cheers!

Davy, apologies for being a pain but our flight time has been changed meaning we won't be needing to go straight back to the airport after the game.
Is it possible to move Hawick TA x3 from bus 18 to a normal one going back to Tirana?
Thanks again!
-
Heads up for anybody flying Blue Express/Panorama from Milan to Tirana that they have changed the flight times going out on the 15th and back on the 18th (Email notifying of the change went into spam).
Completely buggers up our return flight from Milan.

Was speaking to Matt Phillips' Grandad in Central Station on Monday before the Albania game, apparently he was getting an injection on his ankle during the week.
Whether that was enough to keep him out the Scotland games is up to you, suppose it comes down to his priorities.
-
Davy,
Would it be possible for the HawickTA x 3 to be on the airport bus?
Thanks for all your efforts btw.
Cheers!

Absolutely. Though McGeady and McCarthy turned up ultimately to be no loss to us, we don't want anymore nonsense just in case.
Could argue that they were a huge loss (both qualified for 2 tournaments in the last few years while we stayed at home).
Extremely fine margins, hypothetically could have made the difference...(personally wouldn't want either in my team mind you).

Hey Davy,
I have one more joining me in Albania. Can you add him to your bus list.
p.s. I am no bus #14 if that is doable.
CheersDavy/Brummie - My 4 on this bus has just become a 3, if that makes it easier to add your extra?

Hi Davy
Any chance of 4 seats?
Cheers

Just been to the Balna centre to try and get tickets. Asked where we were from and said they have been told not to sell to anybody from Scotland.

Just now, The Bunnet said:
I would think the D4 section will be a buffer. Their will probably be 10,000 empty seats. SSC have had no cancellations, which is unusual. Tried the hospitality route but ended when it came to payment, card has UK billing address. Looking forward to Budapest and will be fine watching game in a boozer, though will try nipping along to the stadium on the morning of the game and see if their are any options.
They were selling tickets in D4 up until yesterday though, with a handful already sold in there.

Section D4 (closest to the away section) now showing as sold out. Possibly keeping back for Scotland fans?
Scotland u21 vs San Marino u21

Gilmour is about 3 levels above everybody else at this age group.
Always looking for the ball, picks the right option and spraying it about off both feet.
If he isn’t in the full squad by next year I’ll very surprised/disappointed.
