    What times your flight?

    Unless you check with the airport beforehand then your best bet is Platform 5 opposite Haymarket as their is a team stop right outside and it’s 15 minutes to the airport

    If you have lots of time then Ted Christopher is holding a soirée down the Grassmarket for like minded people, there’ll no doubt be other people doing the same 

    7.25pm we fly to Milan so would have time to watch it in the centre then head to the airport I suppose.

    A guy in work recommend the Western Bar for watching it but have since found out the daft cunt was sending me to a strippers🤣

    Sky Sports Football / Sky Sports Main Event

    Cheers. So there should be a Bar in Edinburgh airport showing it then hopefully.

    Will this mean sky has all the games of the campaign?

  3. In the past week I've bought the home top we beat Holland wearing in 2004, the diadora home top from 2005/6 that we wore when we drew 1-1 with Italy and a white Scotland collection t shirt from eBay for less than £20 for all 3. So far I've received the t shirt and 2005/6 top and both were in perfect condition.

    Always worth having a look on there first

    Quite bad, they officially do not sell tickets to others than San Marinese or Italian passport owners: "We will sell tickets only to Sammarinese or Italian supporters. The only chance to have tickets is to buy them through Scottish FA."

    As I am a "newbie" and afraid that all tickets allocated to the SFA will be sold before March 2st (what do you think about it?), is there any chance to get my ticket in another way? As I already booked my trip to San Marino, could maybe someone here buy a ticket for me as well? Thank you!!

    Nobody will be able to buy a ticket for you unless it's with their own membership, and if they're making the trip then obviously they'll be using it themselves.

    Don't worry about it too much though, I would imagine anyone travelling will get a ticket eventually. Official or otherwise. 

  5. "Funny" story from when me and the missus visited Belfast a few years back.

    Went on one of those open top double decker tour bus and the woman doing the speaking spent an hour telling us how much things have changed in the north, pretty much suggesting that all sectarianism had disappeared, then we turned up to some loyalist area and the locals made the bus re-route as they were out for a Sunday afternoon orange walk. We did get some magnificent views of the bonfires with effigies of the pope and flags of the ROI on our alternative route though. I assumed they were also fans of the barmaid from EastEnders because they had KAT written everywhere as well...

    I did think that was strange but I think he was reffeting to the abuse he gets and some of the songs, he's never heard them in either Ireland. It was from Thursday's podcast after the Celtic v Valencia match. Pat Bonner said the same.

    Ok well if he means he's not had it personally then I suppose that could be true. But sounds like he's implying that it's worse here than over here, which simply isn't true.

    I also don't believe it's as big a problem as here as some people make out. Other than having songs sung at football, and the odd run in with an orange walk, being Catholic in Scotland hasn't affected me much and I'm 33.

    Ideally the songs (and the orange order) would go away, but i don't think Scotland is this hotbed of sectarianism that some people hysterically make out after a few chants by morons at a football game. I doubt most of them even care outside the football either tbh.

    I assume you're talking about sectarianism? If so, Sutton is talking shite. As much as I like him sticking up for our game, almost everything else he says is garbage.

    That'll be the issue swept under the carpet again for the year.

    Celtic and rangers in the spotlight for it again - check

    Blame society and get politicians involved - check 

    Issues statements (huns and SFA) with no substance or real intent to them - check

    The deflection tactics always works and now we've completed the cycle because it's a Scottish society problem. It's really not, apart from some isolated incidents, where I'm from nobody gave ir gives a fuck about whether you were Catholic, British, protestant or of Irish heritage, most of us had to wait till we visited the west coast or experienced the old firm being in town to know what the fuck it was all about. 

    Tom English and Pat Bonner had to come to Glasgow to experience this nonsense, Tom English spent years in northern Ireland too. That tells you a lot in my opinion.

    Celtic and rangers are the vehicles used, to be honest the huns have a far bigger problem but both clubs Imo could and should be doing a lot more but they don't want to, especially rangers, they actively encourage it.

     

    To be fair, if Tom English said that then he's either a lying bastard or must have been in a coma when he was living in Northern Ireland.

    To answer your questions, the amount of posts or my attendance at football matches has nothing to do with it. Debian is know on here for being the stereotypical hun who takes offence at any criticism of the hun team or its support. He sees everything through hun specs.

    The original post which seemed to upset poor debian and apparently spring him into making up stories was a dig at the hun supporter statement, he somehow confused my laughter with rage and obsession. If anything it was his first response to me which showed rage.

    Strangely I thought we'd be on the same wave length when it came to huns and their statements but you seem to want to have another go at me. Why? You've also got a strange obsession with me being unable to attend games of football. 

    Perhaps I just don't get you and what you perceive to be football banter and rivalry. 

    Have a good night SEM

     

    I didn't have a go at you.

    I just asked you a question. I couldn't care less how many games you go or don't go to, I just suggested that it may be the reason you think we're all sad cunts for following a football team, and you're so much cooler.

    I sometimes feel sorry for losers like you, it must be really shit to have your life revolve around a football team.

    You've used that one a few times.

    What is it specifically that means others have their life revolve round a football team, but you don't? A guy who also has thousands of posts on a football message board.

    Is it because you don't go to games and other people do, or something else?

    Edit to add that this was another raging post, so Debian was indeed correct about you

    Wow, so the home club can tell the away club they're getting no tickets at all?

    I had 5 -10% safety allowing in my head too....

     

    Spfl rules state that there must be a "reasonable amount" set aside for visiting supporters but not a percentage. I was under the impression that the cup was 20% though. 

    Anyway no sympathy for the club who reduced our traditional allocation because they couldn't handle us coming there and lording it over them. Fuck them.

    Have you any proof?

    😛

    Probably do, seem to try and run a bus to anything, just popped up on my news feed and thought it was an indicator of the apathy, even given our form.

    Really crap away day. £28, shite view (or £26 for a really shite view), stewards are awful.... and we usually get pumped.

    Being mates with the guy who owns the pub and several of the members means I see a lot of their stuff popping up on Facebook, not YouTube, but close enough😁

    I've always said that if I was an away fan then I wouldn't pay to go to Celtic park. I always thought we should move them round a bit when we hadn't sold as many season tickets. With the obvious exceptions of course...

    I’d been given a free pass for Saturday too, then realised it’s Sunday.

    Wife actually said “is there football on Saturday?” As she’s having people over.

    Probably just Celtic TV for this one.

    Club 100 (old fir park club) have been running buses everywhere this season and saw they’d cancelled Sunday’s. Don’t get me wrong parkheads easy to get to yourself, but that’s indicative of the attitude to a trip to parkhead. Reckon we’d have taken a really healthy crowd anywhere else in central belt. Probably be about 200 ‘well fans there.

    Club 100 have cancelled a few buses this season to be fair.

    Celtic a bit unlucky last night from what I saw. Red card killed their slim chances. 1st one was daft, 2nd one unfortunate.

    Damage was done at parkhead.

    (insightful stuff)

    Was hoping for a 2-0 win and defeat on penalties, but playing 60 mins with 10 men might help for Sunday, we need all the help we can get going there!

    Sunday will be a good competitive game I think, with Motherwell's recent form and the reasons about us playing on Thursday that you mentioned.  Just a pity it has to be a Sunday, as it usually kills the atmosphere for various reasons.

    I'm not a GIUY kind of poster, however, given the 'look at me... I know next to nothing about football and I'm a big fish in a wee pond' superiority of certain Celtic supporters on here (and in the interest of learning and growing) and using the example of the shoe being on the other foot... lolceltic.gif

    (You see... that's not very nice is it?)

    Please try and be more considerate of the other fans of other teams in the future.

    (Your team buying domestic trophies doesn't make you personally better than anyone.)

    Thank you. :)

    "That's not very nice, please be more considerate"  hahaha fuck me man. 

    Your post above is what football rivalry is all about. We take it on the chin and don't cry about it.

    All your post highlights is that you're perhaps too sensitive to be watching football.

    Sad but true, plenty glory hunters around still. I wonder how many years of winning nothing it will take before they return to the levels of the early 80s? I imagine it will begin to drop off post 10 in a row.

    Yip. 10 in a row is going to absolutely shatter them. Same when Celtic overtake the dead club's titles. Expect tears, snotters and plenty of bear on bear violence.

    It's going to be fucking beautiful
