Thanks to those who've posted, including those who were considering the idea but have left the way clear for the Sunshine Appeal to take the lead on this I've created a dedicated thread in the Charities section and have noted the interests from those on this topic - any new notes of interest, can you PLEASE post on this thread HERE Thanks Paul

DEDICATED THREAD TO POST ANY NEW NOTES OF INTEREST As we begin to look forward to brighter days with some hot places to visit in 2015 including Tbilisi, Faro and maybe even Dublin and Hampden giving us some sunny days as well ................ With all this sunshine, that we’re not used to and never mind any holidays you’ll be enjoying in the future, surely a must have purchase for any Scotland fan, with the added feel good factor of the profits going to the Tartan Army Sunshine Appeal ....... would be a Scotland bucket Hat So its for this reason I'd like to draw your attention to the opportunity to purchase some TASA (Tartan Army Sunshine Appeal) Scotland Bucket Hats ....... design is being confirmed and we’ll share this shortly but in the meantime, anyone interested, please leave your note of interest on this thread (I've noted those from the original thread, but for any others, please use this dedicate thread to post any notes of interest) Thanks in advance

Hi everyone ....... not looking to step on anyones toes on this but we (Tartan Army Sunshine Appeal) are currently investigating based on a couple of designs. We have been looking at this over the last couple of months, however there is a minimum production run depending on the intricately of the design. We are happy to share the design if that helps but most suggestions to date follow the ideas we have but would would ask for an indication of potential orders before we would commit to a production run Thoughts everyone Are you happy to support TASA being those who'd supply the Bucket Hats and without you making a non-binding commitment, how many would think of ordering one? Thanks in advance of your views

A few of us on the Friday teatime flight (16.40 I think it is) but back to Luton on the Monday as better connection's north from there We are about £95 return

We booked ours the day they went on sale and found the price was less than the seated service

John, to be honest, lying down is the only advantage I'd say over a seated coach We used it after the Georgia match down to Birmingham - its ok but not great Depending on which bunk you're allocated, you might feel a bit claustrophobic - on one side of the walkway is 2 single bunks above each other - they're fine On the other side its 2 singles on the bottom with one single above - if you're in the lower single, there's no much of a clearance between you and the bunk above, whereas the other has masses of clearance between you and the roof! Temperature and noise wise, it was fine. When you get on, they'll offer you a bottle of water and a prepacked cake As I say, its ok and probably still beats a seated option but if you can get comfy in a seat, then maybe that's the one which better suits?

Just downloaded the Android version but all the places are north of the river and most of these being a fair bit north

Stayed there for 2 of the 3 Celtic cup games ............... nae worse than a trip to Glasgow

Did we make it ........ yes or no ?Probably nearer no than yes eh but learning a new song was a bonus ? Thanks again for arranging the Sunday night and yes you were a tad Lady Gaga ?

Still on it - in Wroclaw just now but on the early flight tomorrow ......... Im sure it'll be fine!

Getting back to the OP Unfortunate circumstances meant the trip was cancelled ………….. however the timelines suggest it was possible to sell on the travel elements and the match ticket but not enough time to advise/return the ticket to the SSC?? When caught – they then lied and said they were going to the game. At this point they were asked to make themselves known to the SSC whilst over there Results in a warning due to a no show If you take the unfortunate personal circumstances out of the equation, doesn't this make the circumstances as follows: Not going and sold on the travel and match ticket (knowing resale of the match ticket is against the rules) SSC finds out and the OP tells them they are going SSC asks them to see them in Dortmund No show equals a warning, based on them not making contact ‘face to face’ Based on the latter, what’s the issue with the SSC? If you separate the personal circumstances from the warning, its pretty clear there’s a discrepancy between the timelines – they had enough time to sell on, which would have been the same/less as to contact the SSC. The SSC don’t appear to know of the personal circumstances until after the event but as the OP is has lied, why would the SSC act differently? For the record, I've also been "called" by the SSC as it was me who posted the test link to the Wembley tickets, which resulted in them getting bad press cause of these who'd 'bought' a ticket before the link went live. At the next game (I'd requested pick up) as soon as I handed over my card, I got the ... so YOU'RE *************** and since then, I've been a marked man (but in a good way ............. I think!)

Tam, the stop closest is "Biblioteka Narodowa" and there's loads of lines that use that stop Trams from this station, 1, 9, 15, 17, 25, 26, 31, 33, 37, 41 The Metro stop is called "Pole Mokotowskie" and its the M1 line For anyone not sure, here's the transport link We got a taxi from just near our hotel (Gromada Centrum) and I think it cost under a tenner for the 4 of us (If it wasn't a tenner, its wasn't much more tbh!)

Exactly the same happened with us - we'd asked the police and stewards and got no where, so like you, took what looked like the quickest way round ................ ended up cutting over the grass round the other side but seemed to be walking forever!

We are a late arrival as well - on the train from Krakow. We stayed there for the March game and whilst we didn't check in late, its a 24 hour reception, so you should be ok If in doubt, here's the email address to confirm with them - they do reply pretty quickly rezerwacje.domchlopa@gromada.pl

We got a decent place via booking.com If you use the app (I'm using Android) you can book for September 2015 as the Web one is only till August 2015 I've booked 2 twins and an apartment (for the 8 of us) with breakfast in the old town for just over £800 for 4 nights

True dat

No please don't ............... I've heard you sing

We are but staying over in Istanbul that night and continuing to Tbilisi the following night

Totally agree with John (Irnbruman) about Sphinx and even without the deals they have, was great value for money and the food was all freshly made Think we averaged about £12/£14 each for steak or pizza etc and 4 or 5 pints Well worth a visit imo

But Robert .................. people will still be needing a bus

I've booked my lot 3 rooms (for 8 of us its 2 twins and an apartment that sleeps 5) in a decently rated hotel, incl breakfast and the total for the 4 nights is about £830 I booked via booking.com - if you use the app (I'm on Android) you can book September, whereas the web based version is only till August

I get where you're coming from but outside of my immediate group and/or those I know, I'd not be broaching the politician subject. Its too raw and as I say, outside of my group, I'd not know how others have voted and how strongly they feel about it ............... best staying clear of the whole thing I'd say!

For the first one, I took a half day off work (Perth) and flew from Edinburgh Got the 15.50 flight out and the 06.30 I think it was the following morning (we had a room at the airport hotel) Actually got into work earlier that I would normally have been in at!

Says it all ................ coming fae you

Sorry - yeah same return flight
