    Not totally sure about.
    When the draw is made the play offs will still have to happen.

    So, I am pretty sure A2 = pot 2 team
    C3 = pot 3 team <team>

    Though i have read elsewhere as you suggest that may not be case.
    Moot point now - as like most I didn't get UEFA tickets.
    On 10 points (go to every home game) but wont be enough for me or the kids.

    I am in exactly the same boat, also, I went to Cyprus, no STC Ticket for AWAY game.

    I hope the SFA read this and share the tickets out equally, like, Top Pointers get 1st choice of Game. Next Highest gets their choice of Game and 3rd Highest gets the Tickets that's left. That would be the fair way to do it.

     

    It would royally screw those that have harvested Points.

    it's strange to me you're being asked to apply for tickets you have no idea who's playing.

    end up with tickets you probably don't want and then have to start swapping.

     

    Except, you can't swap, because you are reliant on someone mailing you the ticket. Who is going to Mail a Ticket to someone else 1st?

  3. Fair Enough, For Us we Got the final Game in Group A, A2 v A3 in Stuttgart.

    Game will KO at the same time as the Germany game that Day, so assuming a 5PM KO Maybe? It's the only games on that day so I reckon a KO time not too early or late.

    I applied for 7 games x 3 tickets. Got lucky and was successful for a Friday night game in Dussledorf. Scenes if it's a scotland game.

    The times of the games are not decided yet. Apparently they only allocate KO Times when they see the draw.

  5. Regarding what tickets We applied for. We applied for 144 Tickets. All a mixture of 150€ and 60€ Tickets.

     

    3 Scots applied for 75% of the 144 Tickets. German Friend applied for 25% of the Tickets.

     

    German friend won 4 Tickets to 1 Game. I'm just thankful we got something but I was hoping for 3 Games.

  6. FFS, 3 Scots applied for 4 Tickets each for 9 Days. That is a total of 108 Tickets we applied for, won.......ZERO

    M8 in Germany done the same, He applied for 36 Tickets. Won.........FOUR!

     

    Match 26: A2 v A3

    Germany's Group, let's Hope Scotland Draw Germany!

  7. I read somewhere that you might get the result on the Ticket Portal before you receive the e-mail due to the amount of e-mails going out and some being later in the process:

    THE TICKET PORTAL

    I'm going over to check now, just in case...........Nope, nothing for me as yet. Still just showing my application.

    Worth while checking it throughout the day if you ain't received a mail. Also @TicketsUefa on X/Twitter seems to be making announcements on the Topic!

  8. The Results of the 1st Phase of Ticket Sales by UEFA, aka The Ticket Lottery are announced tomorrow at the latest.

    4 of us have applied for 32 Tickets each. Meaning an application for 128 Tickets covering the 19th - 28th June. None of us have heard anything yet.

    This is a thread to let us all know which games you got tickets for. Also, would be a great thread to arrange for swaps of tickets, etc depending on where in Germany you are staying and travel plans.

     

     

  9. I booked up in June!...And Thank FU*K!

    Me and the Boy (18 and going to his 1st Finals - living the F'ing Dream!) heading to Frankfurt as we have German Friends in and around Frankfurt so can hook up with them there. Heading out 19th June and there until 27th (Last 2 Group Games).

    Purely for getting around Germany, Essen would be a good base. It's very close to loads of Host Stadia although it is not a Host City itself so possibly you will get better value digs. Plus it is a major Train Hub, it'll be much simpler to get pretty much anywhere in Germany from there. Plus, loads of TA stayed there when Scotland player Germany in Dortmund years ago.

    Just to add, I was in Germany for the World Cup in 2006 and everywhere I went absolutely ROCKED. So it doe not matter where you go, you will have an AMAZING time!

     

    One last Tip, if you see any Markets dotted about. Go into them, even the regular Markets have Beer and Wine Tents right in the middle of them! They ROCK!

  10. Ty Romantic!

    Like I said, I hope we win our last 2, putting us in Pot 2. My preferred draw based on the FORECASTED finishing spots.....

    Pot 1: Belgium / Germany

    Pot 2: Us

    Pot 3: Slovenia

    Pot 4: Slovakia

    I'll have a go at adding in 3 Play-Off Winners tomorrow and see how that looks! Crucial part of the above, I think Germany would be delighted with that Draw.

    And after our Goal was chopped off V Spain, I am highly skeptical of UEFA! - I hope I am wrong though!

     

  11. I made a Topic on this, but should've posted here. I agree with pretty much everything that has been said. Here was my Post on the Topic:

    Win our last 2 which is very achievable and we are in Pot 2!

    Although, the difference between Pot 2 and being in Pot 3 is probably going to be minimal. Maybe we will even be worse off. The link below shows the CURRENT Positions for Seeding. And then it covers the PREDICTED finishing Spots.

    Worst 3 Pot 2 Teams to get: Denmark, Turkey, Switzerland (It'll be like a HOME Game for Turkey and Switzerland)

    Worst 3 Pot 3 Teams to get: Croatia, Czech Rep, Netherlands

    But you know what, MOMENTUM is everything. So I hope we go on and win our last 2 regardless of the permutations. I reckon we will beat Norway easy at HOME, and as ever, Georgia AWAY is the Banana Skin!

    When I was looking at the possible teams we could draw in the finals, that was one that stuck out (they are in with a good chance if they win their 3 remaining games, and think they may also have a Nations League play off spot in reserve)

    I did exactly the same, it would just bring a slight downer to the occasion for me if we draw Israel. Plus, Israel are forecasted to qualify as a Pot 4 Team! Analysis here, Current Standings and Forecasted Standings:

  14. CALCULATION ERROR - If not a Draw, we want Spain to win 100%

    If Norway Win, a Draw v Georgia would not Guarantee us Qualification.

    Can anyone suggest a pub to watch game tonight in Glasgow?

     

    May be traveling back north tonight but really want to watch game en route 🙂

    The Rhoderick Dhu is a cracking pub.

    1 Minute walk from Central Station, Smoking bit INSIDE the pub, It's where WEST meet (when they are not in Spain).

    Outthe side entrance onto Hope St, straight across the crossing and go straight on. Walk for 10 Seconds, it's on the left hand side. NJOY!

    The Rhoderick Dhu
