Is JCS going with his kid? No, not according to his post. He said he's going with his Mrs and mates Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Children shouldn't be at this match. It's during term time.

People taking it upon themselves to sit with minors who they are guardians of is a world of a difference from selfish arseholes showing a complete disregard for fellow fans If people weren't taking their kids out of school during term time, a crucial term time for pupils of a certain age, then maybe we would still have the finest education in the world Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grim Jim Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 I thought it odd that 2 pretty random seat numbers came up when I purchased. (A reason for this delay???) Anyhow, looking back on SSC site, it just says 'general admission'. If 10 folk turn up together, I don't think there'll be much of an issue: It's just small print arse covering. If hundreds of folk start bitchin' about what seat they want, then the queue may get a bit tetchy. In-out, back-to-the-pub (or bathhouse) will be just fine, cheers.

DoonTheSlope Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 From the SSC Twitter page HUNGARY | Contrary to information being circulated on social media, only a handful of Hungary tickets have been cancelled by members. Unfortunately due to ticketing restrictions we will be unable to re-sell these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kumnio Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 I assume that's when the SFA will be there, we were up that way and just chanced out luck. Saw several other scots there as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDFH64 Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Picked ours up at 17:00, one or two others looking for the pick up point, wasn’t the easiest to find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamiltonnil Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Picked up at 1 minute passed 6 after the SFA staff arrived. They have a thankless task ahead of them given what I seen from the Hungarian ticket office staff! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcs Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 When we arrived we got the lift straight up from the underground platform which brought us out onto the street 2 minute walk nobody else collecting couldn’t have been any quicker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe a fair number of them were congregated in the stairwells and along the barriers at the front because they couldn’t sit next to friends? Got speaking to a few kilts in a bar and the word on the street the day after the game around Budapest was there was only a small few cancellations before the trip and only 8 were uncollected at the pick up point. Just a rumour, but judging by the photos I’ve seen I’d be surprised if this wasn’t close to the truth I think we can put this harvesting shite to bed once and for all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tartanmartin Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 It was 100% pickup so no harvesting could take place. Unless someone picked up their ticket and then flew home. The buyers of the uncollected and cancelled tickets won't get points allocated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At all? There were a good 30-40 empty seats where I was. (See below) Saw plenty others. Would say at least 100 empty seats in the Scotland end. There were a few people standing in the stairwells that I could see but a handful at most. Personally I'm quite happy for the SFA to make it 100% pick up from now on unless the away allocation is a particularly large one. You do that and you stop harvesting.
