adamntg Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Just been on to buy my tickets for Norn Iron and Gibraltar matches. Paid £81 + P&P for two adults and a child to sit in a three quarters empty Hampden and watch Scotland run up a cricket score against a team of amateurs. Judging by the map you'll be very lucky if the attendance breaks 15,000 for either game, particularly Gib. There'll likely be more Scotland fans in Faro than will be at Hampden. Somebody wants their arse kicked for that pricing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redstevie007 Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Giving both games miss. They can get tae at those prices. Next time I'll be at Hampden will be for AC/DC in June - similar price but far better value Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next time I'll be at Hampden will be for AC/DC in June - similar price but far better value That's fair enough. How many times does a band tour?? Say every 2 maybe 3 years or so. The $FA are charging those prices about 4 times a year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZoltanBuchan Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Won't be going to N.I, but really looking forward to the Gibraltar game for some reason. Maybe to experience the novelty of watching a Scotland game without a crippling sense of anxiety? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirk Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 NI can gtf. Will be full of scumbags like last time. I'm also working Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squirrelhumper Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Was it the last time? Big time. Pubs were horrible before game. I was in Florida Bar and left as my sister hated it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jagtag Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Was it the last time? It certainly was in Dublin. A very intimidating crowd around the ground. Didn't see too much of it in and around the centre. Most were bussed in and out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robroysboy Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 There was 8k northen ireland fans at the last freindly at hampden. It will be closer to 800 this time, the majority of genuine fanstravelling from northem ireland will be good natured. The home based northen ireland fans may not. That certainly was my impression when ireland were at celtic park. The boys from ireland were really shared some really good craic and cant wait for dublin. I also met a few with glasgow accents and i got the impression they had a chip on their shoulder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bzzzz Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Its always the way,I've always had a great time with the Irish Irish. It's the OF "Irish" that have a problem with themselves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
