I said to guy at counter that the stadium will be empty but basically rules are rules. Hungarian fa have apparently said no Scots will be allowed in unless they are in Sfa section. I can only encourage all SSC members to complain to Sfa who should have known better than to agree to a friendly game unless they can secure enough tickets for all our travelling supporters. I know they only had 400 replies to their survey but alarm bells must have been ringing as we always take around 2000 fans when games are in Europe.

Just been back to the stadium & stadium manager has came out to say no tickets will be sold to anyone with UK passport due to segregation laws. Probably around 50 guys up looking for tickets at same time as us

At the stadium just now in the stadium bar having a shandy. Ticket office is closed until 10am Tuesday so no chance of tickets today. Guy here said good chance of tickets tomorrow as ground will be empty.

Just arrived & got yellow taxi to hotel in city centre cost 7000huf roughly £20 but passed a couple of the airport busses on the way in, probably a better option cost wise. Busses were all full though. Taxi was quick but for the sake of 5 min it will save you a fair bit.

Sfa should announce a 100% pick up now as it would definitely free up tickets for guys that are travelling. Harvesting has been a problem for years but as it doesn't affect Sfa employees directly they don't give a fcuk. Surely when they only had 400 replies to their survey they must have thought that was not an accurate number & sent email to every member not just the ones who clicked on the link on their account, i recon if they re surveyed members they'd get 1200 - 1500 replies. It's been a shambles from the word go. Most members like myself try to book the trip as early as possible to get cheaper deals on flights etc so waiting till now to see if you get a ticket can possibly cost an extra £200 for last minute flights. Hopefully the Sfa can secure more tickets but not holding my breath.
