KirkieRobRoy Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Yup - I'm East Dunbartonshire and our cases have risen in the last few days, too (jings, I wonder if there were any spreader events just over a week ago, errm...). The ScoGov are working on the basis of those levels by June but they're not guaranteed and they'd be dead wrong to raise everybody's expectations the way the London Government have. And, yes, as stated above, the papers are trying to pile the blame on the ScoGov. Hardly a big surprise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjm007 Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 Seems incredible that part of the Europe with the 2nd lowest covid rate and the highest vax level and the fastest roll out - having worked so hard to host matches in the first major tournament they have qualified for in decades is not pushing hard to add games never mind not lose games. All efforts seem to be on looking for a football club to blame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAVIDB46 Posted March 17, 2021 Author Share Posted March 17, 2021 Whilst yesterday’s news was encouraging from SG , I am still doubtful we will see games at Hampden its just a month till uefa need a decision no fans or delaying a decision means they take the games elsewhere . SG will blame rangers fans if that is the case . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should be adding games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAVIDB46 Posted April 2, 2021 Author Share Posted April 2, 2021 This is topical again as UEFA want communication from host cities by this Wednesday 7th April what the plans for fans are. I assume it still means no fans means no games , although appears that we may get 3000 tickets for wembley even in a 10000 limited crowd . I think it’s touch and go whether NS gives the go ahead even for some crowds 2 months before . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lion Rampant Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 Jason Leitch on BBC saying that he thinks there will be fans in Hampden for the games in June, assuming we all stick to the restrictions in the mean time. Get the feeling that the government will propose the bare minimum number of fans that Uefa will accept. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Black Bra Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 Does anyone know how many tickets have been sold already for the games? I’ve got 2 tickets for the last group game against Croatia, applied in the ballot in 2019 before we actually qualified on the off chance we made it. Wondering how it will work, if for example they limit crowds to 5000 and 15000 tickets have been sold. Hopefully, the crowds will be fans first rather than suits/UEFA pish...

I fear this will be the case. It said Wembley will be able to have 10,000 domestic fans though the rest of that third of Wembley capacity will be made up of corporate/sponsors.

bisland boy Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 Does anyone know how tickets will be allocated if restricted capacity is allowed? As UEFA have already had a general sale will all original tickets be voided and new restricted capacity tickets allocated to SFA/FA to sell via their supporter clubs or will UEFA have a ballot between those that already have tickets for the games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I’ve tickets for Czech game and Croatia v Czech via UEFA ballot. I hope these would be honoured for domestic fans although I’ve got enough SSC points to hopefully get them that way if that’s what happens.

AlfieMoon Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 I think if games are approved for Hampden then UEFA either: 1) Void all tickets already issued and distribute tickets to host FA’s to distribute. 2) Honour a certain percentage of existing tickets already issued. All foreign ticket holders would have their tickets voided. A ballot could take place between the remaining ticket holders. Or a combination of both. Would be good to know what’s happening soon anyway. That’s a fair amount of time that UEFA have been sitting with money in the bank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottincarlisle Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 3 test events at Wembley The Carabao Cup final between Tottenham and Manchester City will have 8,000 fans in attendance after it was confirmed as a pilot event to test the return of big crowds. A proportion of tickets will be made available to both clubs for the game at Wembley Stadium on 25 April. The rest will be given to local residents in Brent and NHS staff. Rick Parry, chair of the English Football League (EFL), said it was an "important milestone". On 18 April, the FA Cup semi-final between Leicester City and Southampton will have 4,000 fans while the final on 15 May will welcome 21,000 spectators. "This is an important first step towards getting fans back, with the end goal of full stadia - hopefully by the end of the men's Euros [in July]. We would like to thank all authorities for their support throughout this process." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
