Rich NATA Posted March 2, 2023 Share Posted March 2, 2023 20 hours ago, thesaint said: Seville would seem the obvious. Totally agree. Seville, the biggest city in Andalusia and one of the biggest cities in all of Spain. The most obvious, blatant, staring-you-in-the-face, host city in all of Andalusia. The fact the Spanish FA haven't announced somewhere so bloody obvious now leaves me thinking it won't be there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps the SFA have asked them not to announce it until they can confirm our friendly a few days later to make our travel plans for an away double header easier! 👀 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doubt it, as that is where they will be playing Norway, and would be surprised if they play two games in the same ground in the same campaign.

They have a good record in making it easier for us. england at home just after the Cyprus away trip had already been booked by many for a weeks break which takes in the date of the england game. Certainly made it easier for us there. 🙄🙄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saintsparky Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 The Spanish have moved their Cyprus game back a day from Sept 11th to 12th. I didn't know you could do that. I thought the dates were set by uefa. I'm following three Spanish official Twitter accounts waiting for our confirmation to finalise booking...

I believe that's to do with elections in Norway being held on that date - UEFA want all matches in a group to be played at the same time, so both games in the group have been moved back a day.

The Lowlander Posted March 9, 2023 Share Posted March 9, 2023 (edited) Just noticed a ticket site is selling tickets for Scotland V Spain in Valladolid. But it says the stadium may change in the future so we can probably ignore it. https://www.biletwise.com/en/spain-vs-scotland-european-football-championship-2024-qualifiers-tickets/ Edited March 9, 2023 by The Lowlander Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clyde1998 Posted March 9, 2023 Share Posted March 9, 2023 (edited) Reading this article from a few weeks ago:https://alicanteplaza.es/tebas-responde-a-rubiales-pretende-darnos-lecciones-un-gestor-ruinoso-que-ademas-miente It appears the RFEF are contracted to play two matches in Andalusia, with their game against Norway being the only scheduled in that area so far (with only our game to be given a venue), so the game shouldn't be played in Valladolid. Edit: This article backs up the game will be somewhere in Andalusia: https://www.mundodeportivo.com/seleccion-espanola/20230214/1001941234/espana-jugara-santander-valladolid.html Edited March 9, 2023 by Clyde1998 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still no exactly a stones throw for someone who gets travel sick in any car journey of 90 mins or more 🙂 This could be my biggest cock up since booking Bucharest instead of Budapest.
