Fairbairn Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 I'm not paying 40 odd quid to go and watch Gibraltar. If that makes me a glory hunter then so be it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it makes you a glory hunter. I didn't pay £40 to watch Gibraltar either. I paid £40 to watch Scotland. It was at least £25 too much.

Ormond Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Get a squad of at least 40 like minded lads wearing proper terrace clobber and waving pyro in the north stand and the rest of the stadium will follow whatever they sing. Skull and cross bones over a saltire and we're good to go. We could call ourselves the mount flo ridas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tartanhamish Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Not convinced a 'Welcome to Hell' sign would have been worthy of a game against Gibraltar The atmosphere was never going to be that good & there has been a residue of resentment at the ticketing prices which has not helped. I clapped loudest at the Gib goal & to witness a hat-trick. 2 full houses against Poland & Germany will welcome the real Hampden Experience back, We are all Scotland by the way.....

ParisInAKilt Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Why? My first reaction was to laugh and then clap. They deserved it after the start they made. Typical they scored their first goal against us. Guess it's easier to clap a goal like that when you know you'll go on and win the game easily.

tartanhamish Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 A good goal by a plucky opposition with a decent sizeable travelling support in a game we were going to score loads of goals with my mood not helped by morons behind me & having paid too much too watch. Not sure I clapped, but Estonia scored their first major goal in competition against us at Pittodrie 1993. On the way to the game we passed a Trabant near Stonehaven, a squad of 5 or 6 were in the main stand & when Bragin scored in 57 minutes one lad invaded the pitch to shake all the players hands. Definitely laughed. We won 3-1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirk Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 not read it all but as far as best shout of the day goes, guy behind us in the south I4 when Gib got the corner near the start. "Oh for sake, thats their first corner EVER, they dont even know what to do" probably had to be there but the way he said it was brilliant, people all around were pissing themselves. Heard the rainbow chant too and thought it was quite funny. Atmosphere was dead as we knew the result already. I also clapped Gibs goal, they deserved it from a good move and it was nice for them to score. We have been the awful team for years and you can appreciate how good it would have been for theor fans to see a goal. The big games will be fine, but we do really need new songs/chants Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jock strap Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Sorry, but this is absolute pie-in-the-sky stuff - There is no way that any area in an all seated stadium will be, even unofficially, designated as "predominantly standing" And as for any governing body allowing any sort of"no hassle from stewards" policy, again, even unofficially ? Absolutely no chance... In principle the idea is fine, and IF Fifa / Uefa allowed so called "safe standing" areas would be worth looking at Hence why I said it would be good. I never said it would happen, but the idea would accommodate fans wanting to be in the 'noisy' area and those who don't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They played some good stuff at times and had a couple of skillful players. probably wont be as bad as they are permanently. If that makes sense.

tom1172 Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 (edited) I clapped when they scored, it was a good goal for a bunch of posties and semi professional players. Good on them. Never clapped Scotlands opposition goal before. On the upside also said to all the boys "at least we witnessed history today" The atmosphere, even if full would have been flat. Normally is v the smaller teams. Poland and Germany games will be absolutely rocking. Aye me too.. We were never going to lose v them and they deserved their (decent) goal for their fans who i thought were excellent - Especially knowing they were in for a gubbing whatever happened! Seeing Gib score their first 'serious' goal and Scotland score 6 wisnae a bad day oot at all! Edited April 1, 2015 by tom1172 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thankfully was just me and the dug in the house at the time but I let out the loudest "ForFvxkSake" I have done for some time. Certainly loud enough to make the dug yelp and head to another room. F**k this notion of sporting fair play/applauding the opposition when its Scotland playing. IMVHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
