DoonTheSlope Posted April 10 Posted April 10 Someone was on one the fizzogbook pages saying that this game could knock last weeks Côte D’Ivoire points out if the last 10 games come the Euros ticket sales That’ll be a bit of a sickener for the ones saying that it would be a cheap and easy 2 points for the Euros Quote
Exiled ICT Posted April 10 Posted April 10 Including this game, that leaves 4 away games left for this year. Would need 6 away games next year for it to be knocked off. I'm going to say we'll be a minimum of a 5 team group for the qualifiers next year which gives 4 away, and two away friendlies is not inconceivable. Quote

The fifa calendar dictates how many games will be played. 10 each year, assuming equal home and away it will count. Tickets will go on sale before the march 2028 window so they won’t count… Quote
ThistleWhistle Posted April 10 Posted April 10 In 94 I remember watching Trans World Sport or similar that had a special on South American qualifiers. After watching it was convinced Bolivia would take the World Cup by storm. In the Italian Championship Manager kept signing Etchevery, had him in my fantasy football team you used have post in and told all my mates he’d be up there for top scorer. Off the bench v Germany and sent off within 5 minutes. Legendary mullet though that the world never really got a chance to admire . Quote
saintsparky Posted April 10 Posted April 10 I was at South Korea v Bolivia at World Cup 94. Very boring 0-0 draw... The game was at Gillette Stadium. I jumped on a train in Boston, got to the game, picked up a ticket outside for $20, and then got the train back. The good old days.... Quote

As I say highly unlikely.....but this is Scotland we are speaking about!! Quote
jamboman Posted April 11 Posted April 11 any idea when tickets go on sale? i am guessing it will go to 0 points? Quote
McToot Posted April 12 Posted April 12 I believe tickets go on sale to the general public on 15th April. Not sure if prices have been advertised. I’d imagine it’ll comfortably go to zero points. I noticed England have just released the ticketing details for their two games in Florida. They got about 3700 tickets for both games, which were both priced about £35. Hopefully similar for us.

Contrarian Posted April 14 Posted April 14 Tickets $82.30 from Ticketmaster, about £63. I'm guessing the official SFA allocation will be about the same, but who knows? Quote

I'd imagine so, no doubt we'll find out soon. Surely this will go right down, points wise. See you in Times Square! Quote
ceudmilefailte Posted April 15 Posted April 15 (edited) Not sure there should be points awarded for away friendlies Do the players or Scottish Football gain anything out of it? Just means that supporters with less disposable income won’t get tickets for important games. Keeps the tourists happy I guess Edited April 15 by ceudmilefailte Quote

Keeps the tourists happy I guess I’m not convinced points should be awarded for matches played outside of FIFA match windows ie Curacao at home Is it classed as an official match if it’s played outside the FIFA calendar? If so players probably won’t be gaining a cap by playing in it so why are supporters being awarded a point? Quote

The game in Liverpool? Why didn’t they just come out and say. Couple of cheap points if you live south of Perth. Alternatively if you want to climb the ladder for points and can afford to how about America the week before the World Cup? Quote

TunnocksTeaCakes Posted April 16 Posted April 16 That's a ridiculous price saying that the cheapest wheelchair ticket which I need is $114 if I knew it was this price I wouldn't have booked a 4 hour return train ride and accommodation for it Quote
jamboman Posted April 23 Posted April 23 Nope. Getting a bit worried about it now. Its 6 weeks until the game and no indication on tickets/allocations. Nothing Very Strange situation Quote

They got a row for chasing up an unanswered email Disgraceful way to treat card holding members that are literally keeping you in a job really Quote
Lisa G Posted April 29 Posted April 29 Does anyone know where the supporters section is for the match v Boliva? Quote
