  1. Here’s my video of the Tartan Army Children’s TACC presentation and visit to the FINE foundation Day Care Centre in Kraków with a donation of 25,000 zł, when they were in the city for the Ukraine v Scotland game on 27th Sept.  

    The donation will be used to support the 100 Ukrainian refugee kids who attend the centre every day 

    The kids had a great time trying out and listening to the Ukrainian National anthem  on the bagpipes, with a few having a go on the pipes.

    'Thanks to the Tartan Army who support TACC and help to make wonderful moments like this possible.  Huge respect to all involved.

  3. Depends...
    Transport from where? to the game?

    It's an easy 18-20 min walk from the Main Market Square.

    There are also buses which pass directly by the stadium, stop 'Stadion Cracovia' and a single tram line which passes nearby, just across Błonia park

    I've mentioned the app 'Jakdojade' in the guide, the very best for planning public transport routes.

  4. I’ve posted previously about tours, as I've been getting lot's of PM's and questions.  Since then I've done lot’s more research and wanted to update the previous information.  

    I ended up contacting 15 tour companies, 7 replied and I've selected the top 4.

  5. Krakow TA T-Shirts
    I had a T-shirt printed for the game, and it occurred to me that perhaps some of the TA may be interested in having one as a keepsake. The design is the Kraków City Banner, which just so happens to feature the Kraków City Emblem, superimposed on a saltire.

    The T-shirts are 90zł (Approx £16 at todays rate)
    If anyone is interested in having one, please email me:-  david.mcgirr (at) gmail.com  
    including: name - size - colour - preferred payment method

    They are ‘Malfini’ unisex heavyweight 200g cotton.  I received mine last week, and the quality of the T-shirt and printing is very good. I’ve added a pic of the actual T-shirt alongside the design graphic. (I guess the graphic could be tweaked a little - within reason!!, if you think it could be improved, please PM me) |

    My plan would be for them to be collected at Klub Pod Jaszczurami on the main market square, the same venue as Tam & Ted’s pre-match gigs, and the Sunshine Appeal collection hub.

    I’d rather not post any as this will add to the costs and thanks to another Brexit Bonus, you’d have to pay import fees, though I can look into this to get actual costs etc.

    As the T-shirts will be made to order I need to insist on payment in advance.  And will need to put a cut off date once the supplier confirms lead time & delivery etc.

    I realise that most of you don’t know me, and may be suspicious about paying up front, feel free to google my name & Kraków which will show I’m a real person, not a scammer. Also, I have been helping out several of the TA and charities with support for the visit to Kraków, including composing the TA Guide to Kraków, which you may have seen.  

    I’ll share my Revolut GBP account, my UK Bank account and a Paypal account to offer a choice of payment methods.

    First time doing this, so hopefully it goes smoothly!!

  6. Hi folks

    David here.

    Really appreciate the comments above.   I genuinely want the TA to have the best time ever in my adopted home, hence the guide, which was intended to be a 2 pager, but I got carried away.  Took more time than I expected, but it was a labour of love 😉 

    I'm from Tilly in the Hillfoots, the Wee Coonty.  Then Stirling.  Been coming to Krakow for 23 years lived here for 11.

    If you have any questions please do send me a message, on FB https://www.facebook.com/david.s.mcgirr or email david.mcgirr@gmail.com

    I'm regularly updating the guide, recently added a message to the TA from the President of Kraków, and edited the Tours section as I found a better deal for Auschwitz.

    Look forward to seeing some of you in Kraków, I'll be at Ted and Tams gigs.  

    And hopefully at the match - desperately searching for tickets (along with hundreds other TA 😉 )- but if you hear of anything please do keep me in mind!!

    Slàinte
    David
