Plenty folk get caught out with the ticket collections but nothing ever happens other than they have to collect at the next away game as well. Harvesting is going to be a problem for Albania as well, probably Israel even though only a few hundred will travel.

Do you think people will risk their memberships to harvest a couple of points? I agree that the SSC couldn't care less about the harvesting but if it's a half-empty away end, then it reflects badly on them as well as the harvesters.

I remember having to send boarding passes through the post to get a point! And they don't have to check them all, just a few dozen or whatever, same as the ticket collection checks, it's a deterrent, not a catch-all. What do the SSC staff do all day when there are no games for 6 months, anyway If people do fake up a boarding pass, well done them. Fraud isn't very clever, though.

I think in games like this, proof of travel should be provided before points are allocated, which is a simple forwarding of an email confirming flights, for example. If the away end if half-empty, what a joke that will be.

Someone commented that the SSC only got 400 positive replies to their survey on who was going. This appears to be largely due to no-one receiving emails so not knowing about the survery. Anyone who wants to go but didn't get a ticket should be contacting the SSC to put pressure on them as seems to be a big enough stadium to accommodate another 1k Scotland fans. Can't believe we are that big a draw for the locals.

Still no email from the SSC and tickets on sale in an hour. Shambles.

No email for me, although I only ticked the unknown box about 5 hours ago so maybe their system is taking its time to update because of the snow.

I'm going to check my account every day to see if anything has appeared, only safe thing to do.

Can I book 3 seats on the bus, cheers.

o/t this post but rather than start a new thread, I'll just ask my cringe question here... on Sunday night in Metz, there were a few Scots sitting outside the American sports bar/Tipsy Beef, we were drinking with a french copper (ahem) and some french people?? one of the Scots had a big plaster on his head (ahem again), was just wondering if anyone reading this forum was part of that group??

I'd be interested in 3 seats if you're still looking to fill this bus?

There's an option on the 'My Account' tab of the SSC members website to update your email address, then there's a 'use to contact me' button, must be that.

hi, watershed, can you stick me down for 3 seats, cheers zander, I'm on your reserve list, so if I can get sorted with watershed, you can take me off that, yeah. cheers to you both. top men.

Brilliant mate, cheers.

I'd like to book 4 seats on this bus if still available, cheers.

I'd be interested in 3 seats if game is not in Bratislava, cheers.

Have to agree with Gala, why is this thread about buses to Faro, which hundreds of TA are perfectly happy with, being hijacked over something that seems to have went on over on Facebook. I'd like to say thanks to Robert for getting this done, christ knows what hundreds of fans would be doing after the game to get back to their hotels, otherwise.

The US and UK FAs haven't killed anyone in the middle east, think you're getting politics mixed up with football. This 'friendly' is an absolute PR nightmare, and no surprise it's being played at Easter Road, given Rod Petrie was part of the delegation over there. After all the nonsense with Rangers, are we now to bankroll Hibs in the lower tier. Honestly tae flock. By the way, I'm not going, so not bankrolling anyone.

That's my party of 4 booked up, thanks again, Robert.

Robert, I'd be interested in 4 seats to the game, cheers.
