That was a proper qualifiers, so I imagine their will be even more polish folk this time. (I know i will be purchasing a few for my polish family members). Hopefully the June send off match will be reasonably well subscribed. Great.So good to hear that.😪 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bag of Bombay Mix has gone up fookin 45% . Based on these prices it’s a fair price!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best players our country has. I could understand folk moaning a few years ago when we were honking , in the same way every fan would moan about the price of tickets if their team was shite, but we are doing ok just now. And it doesn’t bother me paying for friendlies either, the national team dont get together that often , they need every opportunity to test themselves collectively against players other than their squad mates .

Can't see the friendlies being that popular though. Game a week before we go to Germany? It;ll be a sell out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct - i pay £25-33 every second week for away games watching Killie. Paying £30 to see Scotland is hardly sky high. You'd be guts of £15 these days to go to the cinema before you've even bought any food or drink. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be really good if it was, but I can't see it. If the loyalty point counts towards the round of 16 game, then they might sell a few more tickets, I suppose?

As i've said before, anyone who is in the SSC and wants a last 16 ticket will get one. 37,500 in it. Lots of them won't be going to Germany (kids/folk that can't afford it/elderly etc) and out those who do go, i'd be surprised if 6,000+ can afford to/can get time off work/family commitments allow them to add on an extra week/another weekend trip at the drop of a hat.

Willie64 Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 I'm happy with pricing structure. From memory, an additional point was given to those buying the home match package in the past. No mention of that this time round, with no price saving, the only benefit of buying the package is an earlier choice of seat, am I reading that correct?

Rawlinho Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 My brother in law follows Northern Ireland home and away and just bought his ticket for the game next month. The NI fans are being charged £35 (probably not helped by Ticketmaster being their ticket agent) and more interestingly they are being housed in block G. I can't remember there being many occasions where the away fans were anywhere other than block A but maybe the SFA are noticing the week day schedules and predicting lower numbers of kids so putting the away fans in the West Stand?

Rawlinho Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 Aye sorry meant East stand, had a mare there. I've got a vague memory of some countries with very few fans being put in that corner but I think NI are bringing around 4k fans. With the other teams in the NL probably not having big numbers of away fans (apart from Poland) maybe it'll be the same for all teams? Alternatively maybe it's just for NI and the police have requested it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(and were removed by someone else's 😄) I do remember them getting kicked out but thought they were the ones who had got tickets in the east stand next to the official away end but in with the home support. To be honest it was a long time ago but seem to remember at that time the west stand was only for home fans. Don't seem to remember away fans in there at that time.
