DoubleSC

Been on it a few times. Could have been doing with leaving half an hour earlier for the Germany game as just got in time for kick off (missed anthems). Like above - could not for the life of me find my way back to the bus so got the train.

I'm sure the Germans wont relax as they will want to win the group especially with Poland only 2 points behind. I would rather have our games left than Irelands so 3rd place very much alive. Roll on 8th October.

Yeah - there were 4 of us walked down the road. Me and the Mrs, a chap from Wick and you. Good night had by all.

Ted on about doing something in Scotland like before the Georgia game. Could it be possible with links to see it or has he got dvd's that could be part of the party? Regardless - 4 of us up for a do.

Me and the Mrs also outside after closing time Sunday night. Managed to get some chips across the road as well. Great fun.

A draw with Poland and a win out there will get us to playoffs provided Ireland lose to Germany and Poland. If we beat Poland and Gibraltar, we will be in playoffs as Ireland can do what they like as we would then have a better head to head with Poland (should we and Ireland beat them). The ones that have not yet made their minds up whether to go or not are no further forward. Too late if waiting for Poland result so let's get out there. Hope my facts are ok as I have been drinking.

Agreed regarding it being a big game. 3rd slot very much alive still with us having the better chance if getting positive results in the last 2 games.

Been out of stock of home top XL for at least 2 months now. Spoke to a store manager who admitted JD hab made a right mess of the Scotland gear.

There are still ssc tickets left - why? Everyone saying 8000 was too low and that zero pointers would not get a chance of an official ticket. I know a lot have bought direct from gfa, but it's a great opportunity for folks on low points to get on the points ladder.

Me and Mrs travelling up from the south on Saturday for a long weekend. Will have a look in. Wish we were travelling back from Georgia though.

In the same boat. Me and Mrs flying up from Luton on Thurs for Poland match then flying back down Fri morning to wait for the Faro flight at 1835 (I think). We are meeting another couple at midday and will venture out for some food and more beer. Our car will be at the airport from Thursday but with beer, it will stay in the car park till the following Friday when we return. You're more than welcome to join us.

Tickets purchased - no problem at all.

Would have loved to have went. Annoying as we can afford it cash wise but not time off work wise. As previously said, could do with the point but won't harvest.

This is the only only away game of the campaign me and the Mrs have missed and will miss (also missed Georgia at home due to travelling to Poland early doors from Bristol). We could have done with the point each but refused to buy tickets as we do not agree with harvesting.

What euro rate are you getting to the pound out there just now?

Just printed two tickets for friends (non ssc members) for section S13. Looks like it's filling up nicely just above the official away fans where I will be.

After the ssc members sale there is usually a general sale for tickets left. If you buy one, you have to give your details which is registering. This is free and allows you access to home games tickets after paying members windows are over. Also, as ssc membership is full, you can register by giving your details. You will receive these emails and get offered tickets if any left. Either way, if ssc have your email address, you will get email from them. What the ssc didn't say was that this was really a general sale as you were able to register there and then and buy tickets for the two games.

I know what you're saying because I done it for Dublin, but only because the tickets were sold in a way that made it easy to do so i.e. Abbey Travel and so on. I thought the SFA were trying to limit the opportunities the Germans and Poles had to get home end tickets. If the above is true with the Pole registering now and buying tickets, the email from the SFA should have read general sale and not a unique opportunity for registered supporters as it seems to be a free for all. In fact, registered supporters may not think they need to hurry as they think they have a bit of time to buy.

Something not quite right. If it's allowing fresh registrations, it may as well be a general sale.

IF you have bought tickets before for games in a public sale, you must register (do not need to join the ssc). You can register anytime so as you are set up to be able to buy tickets after the members sale. Germans and Poles could have set themselves up weeks ago. Hopefully not too many though.

Not so much a member sale then. This means that anyone who has registered before today can buy the tickets. Its better than nothing, but I'm sure lots of Germans and Poles have already registered. Am I right in thinking that you must be registered with the SFA to be eligable to buy a ticket, and that no one new will be able to register until noon next Monday.

Sol Aqua Albufeira. Fri - Fri with the Mrs as she goes to all the games and another couple.

Whats up with the SFA. They want to keep away fans to a minimum - we all get that, so they allow 4 days for a relatively small amount of people who did'nt buy their tickets first time round. We get that, but 4 days, and how many were actually sold in these 4 days. So to keep away fans out of the home end the SFA's way of doing this is to 'secretly' let members know there will be a public sale? As said above, the Germans and Poles will be rubbing their hands right now and wondering what they were worried about the past few weeks. There are plenty tickets left - why not a member sale for at least two days and the SFA would be working towards what they are aledgedly trying to achieve.

I'm sure there's more than me that's been at Hampden in crowds that far exceeds the current capacity and it being full of Scots. Surely for Germany and Poland games there are enough scots hungry enough to get any general sale tickets. Come on folks if we can't sell out for these games! What will it take?
