fringo Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 Maybe some folk can make both games so they chose the away one and combine Scotland game with a trip abroad? What's wrong with that ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just seems utterly bizarre to organise a trip to an away game, which could turn out to be meaningless, which means you miss the biggest game we've played at Hampden in a decade. Hence my comment that they are more interested in having a holiday and a party than the actual football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I missed most of the first half as I was in the queue to collect my ticket. I really enjoyed that experience.

Travelling from down south or abroad takes up holiday time and costs extra money, neither of which is a problem for you given you live within driving distance from Hampden.

Travelling from down south or abroad takes up holiday time and costs extra money, neither of which is a problem for you given you live within driving distance from Hampden. I think you're missing the point. The point is that there is Scotland based fans, flying away from Scotland and thus missing the football tomorrow, yet bizarrely will be in attendance on Sunday. If you're outwith Scotland that's a different set of circumstances isn't it. To emphasise my previous post, seems bonkers logic to me, but each to their own though.
