Orraloon Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Sounds like it's Alex Salmond's idea. Maybe he has given the SFA a telling aff for ripping off the Scotland fans? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbcmfc Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Unfortunately the SFAs greed is paying off at the moment with just over 100,000 attending the games in the last week at an average price of £45-50. They'll take the hit on the Gibraltar game knowing they'll sell out hampden for Germany and provided we are still in the hunt, Poland could sell out 3 times over.

hannibal smith Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 The figures don't add up anyway. Hampden has a capacity of roughly 52k, if there are 30000? SSC members guaranteed a ticket, including 10000? season ticket holders due an extra 2, the debenture seats at Hampden that are due a ticket, the corporate sections plus 2500 to be offered to Gibraltar where are these 10000 tickets coming from? dont think there are 10,000 season tickets, was the number around 7000? 33793 members according to the latest points table Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glasgowmancity Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 (edited) dont think there are 10,000 season tickets, was the number around 7000? 33793 members according to the latest points table Using those figures, that still accounts for 47k tickets of the 52k available. Add in debentures, corporate, away fans and it seems impossible for them to give away 10000 tickets.

Gala Tartan Army (Borders) Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Are people just speculating that there will be a price cut for all ssc members or is this going to happen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orraloon Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Are people just speculating that there will be a price cut for all ssc members or is this going to happen? Seems to be. I think it will just be another hat. They still have the small ones to get rid of yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigfoot Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 They should give the members an opportunity of a free kids ticket, rathe than randomly giving them to youth groups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iainmac1 Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 As much as I don't agree with the ticket prices this is the last home game I will be able to attend so I am going to go and will just have to suck it up and pay the prices unless there are plenty of free tickets kicking about.

Jordanovic Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Rather than give 10K tickets to kids I'd rather the offered the opportunity to buy tickets to those non SSC members who payed exorbitant prices for the Ireland and Georgia games first. How lovely! Screw the kids, i want a freebie instead...? Bore aff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SSC members will all get a ticket The article says up to 10000 tickets have been ringfenced, so that does not mean it will definitely be 10000.

I'll accept that. Why doesn't everyone just wait and see what the SFA do for members etc before lynching them?

ParisInAKilt Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Would this mean the sfa are admitting they got the pricing structure wrong? 35k for the first home game of the campaign and on a Saturday must have been an indication that something wasn't right.
