  1. Totally agree the SFA are shafting the supporters who supported Scotland through the hard times. I am attending the game today with my son but its the heart over ruling the head.

  2. Away and bile your heid.

    If it was you or me who did this I'd be saying the same thing.

    He's stated he did everything else bar the ticket return as he tried to harvest.

    Nice to see though you'll take your hatred of Rangers to any thread.

    I tried to harvest....aye that's right lost £340 and didn't get a point. Seriously their is more important things in life than away points mate.

  3. Sorry but you had time to organise the sale of flights, hotels and tickets but not to reply to the SSC which would take a matter of minutes.

    You're moaning because you got caught.

    I empathise with your personal circumstances, but the SSC have to keep it fair.

    Hi Debian, I am not moaning because I got caught, the purpose of the post is draw the attention to other supporters who may need to sell / pass on match tickets due to change in circumstances. I have deliberately held off posting on TAMB to allow SFA to reply to my letter but suffice to say after 3 weeks they have failed to do so. It did take a matter of minutes to advertise flights, hotels and tickets but I certainly did not have time to drive to Hampden with my tickets.

    I appreciate all comments made tonight regarding my post.

  4. My son and I booked to go to Germany on 18 March, flights and hotels in Dusseldorf & Dortmund all paid for. We were both on 3 points so managed to secure “away end” tickets through the SFA.

    Due to a family bereavement we were both unable to attend the game and I did advertise what was available on the TAMB i.e. flights, hotels accommodation and match tickets. I was able to sell on the accommodation in Dortmund (thanks to Willie from Dunfermline) and the match tickets to Louise from Livingston.

    My point is that after I posted on the TAMB I was hounded by the SFA by way of texts and emails demanding I must return my match tickets. Sorry SFA but I was arranging a funeral and comforting my wife who had lost her mum and my kids who had lost their gran. It got to the stage that I stupidly replied back to the SFA saying I was going to the game and they replied my son and I would need to make ourselves known to the SFA in Dortmund.

    On Tuesday after the game I received an email form Anne Marie Bannon Customers Service Manager saying I wouldn’t receive my away point as I never made personal representation in Dortmund.

    I put in writing my disappointment and would they consider the circumstances surrounding my and son’s non attendance. I provided conformation emails of flights and accommodation and the amount of money I had paid out and subsequently lost…...£340.00

    I received a reply from Anne Marie Bannon within 48 hours and was astounded by what she had written. I quote “I am disappointed to note that the tickets allocated to you were sold on”. Because of this I have a caution placed on my membership and my son’s membership for 12 months with the threat of membership being terminated. There wasn’t any compassion or sympathy shown despite being a SSC Member for 19 years.

    I accept my honesty has been my downfall after all I could of used any other mobile number on the original post than my own and the SFA could not trace me. I do accept that I did not attend the game and am I due the away point….open for discussion…I can see arguments from both sides….to have an official caution put on my and my sons membership….totally out of order.

    I spoke directly to Anne Marie for around 40 minutes on the phone and she is adamant her original decision stands. I have subsequently wrote to her line manager David Thomson, Commercial Director nearly 3 weeks ago and I am still waiting on a reply from him.

    It’s great to think the SFA have plenty of time to scroll through social media websites investigating anyone breaking the Terms & Conditions of SSC Membership.
