The very reason that i was so angry in the age it took them to confirm Seville was because i had already taken the gamble and splashed the cash. So happy days. 👍👍 😂 great. I thought you were getting impatient as you were desperate to get something booked. I wasn’t being entirely serious. Lets hope this isnt another rumour.

I was just really frustrated for the folk who were for understandable reasons having to hang on for at least confirmation of the general area it was going to be played in. I had already burnt my bridges on that score regarding flights and hotels. For once it paid off. 😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah.Unfortunately wouldn't have been the first time i had taken a gamble on following Scotland(especially around covid)and lost out financially.Wouldn't have been happy but that's the gamble.My issue was that all the other venues for the group games had been released including games after ours.Anyway my gamble paid off this time...so happy days.😝 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristolhibby Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 I took a punt on Seville today. £118 return BA from Gatwick. Went from £102 to £118 in the space of a couple of hours. J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thesaint Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 Slightly surprised that the supporters club haven't confirmed the venue in an email. Would have thought they would have been onto it in a flash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

runningtings Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 They sometimes do a poll to gauge numbers, maybe they don't need that now we are popular again 👀 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintsparky Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 The last game in alicante was a pretty easy home end ticket...and they were world and euro champions at the time.... This stadium is twice the capacity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will likely send out an email when the venue is officially confirmed by UEFA and advise that news on our allocation will follow at a later date once it has been confirmed by the Spanish FA.

This stadium is twice the capacity. Yep was in home end for that. Funny looks from the locals when we celebrated Goodwillie's pen. They looked at us as if to say "You know it's 3-1??" Seem to remember we had to pick the tickets up from a local bank and ended up trying about 6 branches before finally finding one that could print them off. Brilliant trip and as you say they were world champs. Kept the ball from us for 6 minutes before scoring the opener! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
