Just found an updated list, cheers. Will be on 6. Be quite annoyed if I miss out on a ticket, but hey ho.
However, you're assuming all above will take a ticket, think 6 will be fine, hopefully.
Where is this updated list?
The only list I can find on the SFA website says last updated 25 April.

No it's not!
Work beside a few P00fland supporters and it's not the norm.
According to this, it says "as per all England away matches, all tickets will be collection only in Slovakia...."
Maybe it's a new thing from now on?

There game confirmed for Ljubljana? I know Ukraine got a allocation of something like 1,200 for their play off game in Maribor, and from the UK based Ukrainians I know who went, that was effectively half the stand (including a spill off from the official away section)
Yes
-
People saying a 100% pick up isn't possible.
Maybe not for an allocation this high, but England are doing 100% pick up in Slovakia. Apparently that's the norm for all their away games.
-
Could be relevant to us (although chances are demand from home support will be higher v England than v Scotland), but the FA have been allocated 2165 tickets for their match with Slovenia in October.
Tickets priced £35.

I'm completely lost as to what you are moaning about here, you know the reason why you don't have enough points and its because you don't go to enough games.
You said so yourself, only you can fix that, quit trying to blame the minority who harvest an odd point here and there. In your honest opinion how many people do you believe will be harvesting from this match? I reckon about 30ish,especially with demand so high. That really isn't enough to have an effect on all those saying they missed out because of harvesters.
They missed out because they never gained enough points despite plenty of opportunity over the previous games.
You're having a go at him for not going to enough games, but defending harvesting.
-
Friend of a friend was in our company one night moaning about harvesters, which then descended into a rant where she was getting so angry about it. Harvesters to her were worse than anything in the world.
Two years on and she currently has 1 point, gained from the Gibralter game. A match she never went to.
-
Missed this article at the time, but according to the Daily Record the SFA have struck a deal to get 7200 tickets. (Article from last year).
-
People saying they've received a mug with "this time" on it.
Where's mine?
-
SSC tweeted at lunchtime to say 2500 sold.
It'll definitely go to 2 points. 1 point maybe. Think 0 points may be pushing it though.

I would take Ferguson over all of them. McAllister would be a contender for sure but I'd have Barry. Neil McCann are you serious?
You're saying Barry Ferguson is our best player for 25 years, and yet asking if I'm the one being serious!?

Stuart McCall
McCall was a cracking player for club ago country. Not the most skillful but got from box to box, winning challenges, and was a bundle of energy.
Basically a good Scott Brown.

just an opinion........thought Albania showed enough to worry us.....and Russia were poor but were playing a decent side and scraped a draw, so aye, I stick by my opinion that we would have lost to everyone so far.
The Scotland in Strachan's first year - the one which beat Croatia, beat Poland in a friendly, drew in Warsaw and gave the Germans a game in Dortmund - they would do well at this Euros.
Since then though we've regressed. Snodgrass was injured, Brown was playing with an injury, Whittaker, Hutton and Fletcher weren't playing at club level, but we kept picking pretty much the same team anyway and ignoring others on form who could have come in and replaced them.
If Strachan was able to freshen things up and go to a plan b, we would be good enough. I refuse to believe we don't have the players to compete at Euro 2016. We have a stubborn manager and that's the reason we're not there.

Surprised at that. For people who have had to buy tickets for the home end, they're entitled to ask why they don't get a point if someone who went without tickets has got one.
Also the SSC are essentially encouraging ticketless fans to travel.

Easily the best and classiest Scottish player of the last 25 years or so. What I'd do for someone like him now.
25 years? Wow.
Just for starters I'll name you five midfielders we've had in that time who were better than Ferguson.
John Collins, Gary McAllister, Neil McCann, Stuart McCall, Paul McStay.
You could also argue Darren Fletcher at his peak was a better player.
-
If you turn up without a ticket, and the SSC sell you one from the tickets that haven't been collected, do you get a point?

I'm not even in the SSC anymore (wc2014 campaign was a £50 scarf and pin badge, so chucked it).
I'm kind of assuming that I'll be able to pick up a home end ticket fairly easily, even if I have to pay slightly over the odds...
It's a bigger game for us than it is them...
I managed to pass myself off as Macedonian a few years back, so reckon I can pull off English.
They've sold out for the friendly with Holland on Tuesday, and there's big excitement over the England team now that has risen after beating Germany and a good Euros will raise it even further.
They believe Russia 2018 will be their time.
I reckon they'll sell out.

"Robertson and Mulgrew have the position sewn up."
Yet Robertson tends to be dropped for many of the big games (Ireland away for example) because Strachan clearly doesn't trust him, and has he ever started Mulgrew at left back?

The Dont Take Me Home song was sung for ages in Faro pub after Gibraltar game...but i hear England singing it all game v Germany so probably counts that one out.
They've been switching between that and "cheer up Gordon Strachan" all night. Typical English, obsessed with Scotland.
Kinda glad they won tonight though, I like it when they whip themselves into a frenzy before a tournament.
(now totally going off topic from new songs) England aren't scared to try loads of new caps and it pays off for them. Let's be honest we're playing for second place in this group.
-
Wasn't impressed with Andrew Robertson in Prague and in fact he hasn't had a really good Scotland performance for a while. Think Georgia at Ibrox was the last time he really shone.
It seems to be accepted that he's our first choice left back but I would like to see a few others tried out, namely Shinnie and Wallace, as Whittaker and Forsyth were both poor replacements in the last campaign.
-
For the uninitiated, it went...
everywhere we go, everywhere we go, it's the Scotland boys making all the noise, everywhere we go.
Aberdeen fans been singing similar for most of the season so presume it came from that.
Also "No Scotland, no party" but that started in Faro so newish rather than new.
Any new chants are welcome and made for a good atmosphere.

Sbragia should be no-where near that job, but Strachan/McGhee don't give a damn about the U21 side. McGhee said the other day he can't remember the last time he spoke to Sbragia.
The u21 team is an after thought. We have a team because UEFA would probably ask questions if we didn't.
