See Players on Arrival

Recommended Posts

I'm taking my son to his first Scotland match on Saturday.  He's looking to see the players before the match - mainly Andy Robertson to be fair!  I haven't been to a football match in many years, is there somewhere you can go to see them arriving before the match, a players entrance or something like that?  And if so what sort of time do they arrive beforehand, is there anyway of finding that out?  I'm not sure he would ask for an autograph anyway but is this time that they would do it rather than after the match?  Do they still do autographs?!  I'm well out of the loop!

Unfortunately the team bus enters via the underground roadway so no chance of meeting them before the game.

Not sure what the current arrangements are but the players normally spend the night of the 1st game of a double header with their families before meeting up again the day after, so you might catch some of them leaving after the game via the main entrance, but can’t guarantee that is the currently the case.

Depending on how feasible it is your best bet for meeting them in at the training base at the Oriam in Edinburgh, think they stay at the Courtyard by Marriott across the road from the Oriam.

That's really helpful. We're actually in West Lothian so the Oriam is a possibility at some point, just not a school day! But if they have a match on a Monday we can try and catch them at the weekend. Much appreciated thanks 😊

Last time for the double header last year while training at the Oriam they were staying in the Marriott on Glasgow Road in Edinburgh (5 mins from the airport, opposite the Maybury Casino). I took the wee man along and the players were all sitting about the lounge and were happy to chat away and get pics, sign autographs etc.

If I find out they’re staying there again I’ll let you know on here 👍🏼
