fringo Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 The 10,000 thing could have been handled better. IMO, there should have been the ability for each SSC Member to add a child's ticket to their purchase. Then give the rest away. J Yup.

1ANDYP Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 4 games for 90 sheets, including the world champions and people still moan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobta83 Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 I would always be going to the 4 games so to get them for £22.50 i think is decent. £80 for the 4 games would have made it just that wee bit more attractive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rootingtooting Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 17 in our squad and 3 bought season tickets for £90 8 bought Gibraltar tickets and 6 not bothered.. Normally got non-members biting our hands off for tickets. Total shambles but overall a good deal on the season ticket if ur planning on seeing all home games in my opinion.

RenfrewBlue Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 I won't be going to the Gibraltar game. I'm not paying £30 to see that standard of football when I can watch my kids team for nothing. Also not interested in the NI friendly as that'll be another turgid mince game. Utter waste of everyone's time and will help Strachan in no way whatsoever. With Poland and Germany to play we need much better opposition to prove anything. The SFA are doing their best to put everyone off following the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John_B81 Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 4 games for 90 sheets, including the world champions and people still moan The Northern Ireland game is free so it's 3 games for £90 for behind the goal seats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deecie Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 I finally purchased tickets yesterday and it worked out at £41.50 each. Bargain. I'm also designated driver for this game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McVinceSCT Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 (edited) 50euros for a ticket in north stand. My season ticket at FC Sochaux costs me only a few more coins. Edited February 16, 2015 by McVinceSCT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1ANDYP Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 2 massive games 1 other important game and a friendly for 90 quid is good value. A lot of u whingers look for the slightest excuse not to go, better off without you I say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of u whingers look for the slightest excuse not to go, better off without you I say. Read the SFA promotion. They are advertising "buy 3 qualifiers and get Northern Ireland free", therefore it is NOT £90 for 4 games but £90 for 3 with the friendly free. So you are still paying £30 per game for behind the goals at Hampden for the qualifiers, those in the sideline stands (North and South) are paying £40 and paying the same "value" for Gibraltar and the World Champions. Commercial ripoff, has been from day one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1ANDYP Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Whatever way you want to put it I am still getting to watch 4 international matches for £90, how much is it to watch pishy spl or championship matches, around the same I would imagine. I agree the sfa made a total balls of things , but for a Scotland fan to go to 4 home games , it is a decent deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John_B81 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 1ANDYP, Scotland are in the best position for a number of years to qualify for a major tournament so why would people want "any excuse not to go"? The fact is that the SFA have shafted the fans with this ticket price hike and the fans are 100% correct to be up in arms about the issue and the softener of a free friendly doesn't work for a lot of people. Given that not many people are receiving a wage increase whilst the cost of living keeps going up, people have bigger priorities to spend their money on than a football match so the 30% ticket increases is a perfectly viable reason for people not to go and isn't "any excuse not to go". Hope you enjoy the games but you choosing to go doesn't make you more of a fan than people who have followed the team for years and are making a stance against the SFA for their ridiculous pricing.

1ANDYP Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 I get your point mate, but do you still think £90 is unreasonable for 4 home games. I think the 4 game package was a climbdown of sorts by the sfa, even if they don't admit it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes because it's not a 4 game package, it's a 3 game package with a free friendly added on as previously highlighted. The reason Northern Ireland was thrown in was a sweetner to the SSC because they knew they messed up the ticket pricing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lion Rampant Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 I see the problem. I've missed the deadline for SSC members and the sale that is open now is for folk who bought the 4 match package to buy extra tickets. Will need to wait for the public sale. Hopefully there are still tickets going in the family section as I wanted to take my daughter to her first game and i'm no paying £40odds for a 3 year old.

There's still loads in the West Stand, and they're doing kids' tickets in both there & the East. The East hasn't been on sale at all that I've seen - I'd imagine that's where the 10,000 free tickets that the SFA have given out are located. I'm taking my nephew to his first game but need to wait for the public sale - I'm not worried about getting a kids ticket though. Anyone know when the public sale begins?
