Donaldo87 Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Shocking. £3 more than I paid for the home game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debian Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 SFA confirmed it won't be a 100% pickup already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaid Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Might well turn out to be a 100% pick up yet. Ticket sales could conceivably go on until three weeks before the game, then they have to get the tickets from Georgia in time to post them out. Now that might sound straightforward but the sticking point there could be getting the tickets from Georgia to Glasgow in time to send them out. That's what happened the last time and why there was a 100% pick-up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EIFA10 Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 (edited) 2000 collections is maybe a bit much for the SFA to plough through (although I haven't experienced a collection so can't comment on the efficiency or lack thereof). Maybe cropping it to 50% would be a good number? A 50% chance of being asked to collect would help discourage the harvesters. Has anyone tried sowing that seed with the SSC?

Has anyone tried sowing that seed with the SSC?There wont be 2000 collections though as there won't be anywhere near that number travelling. I would say around 800. Saying that I expect all 2000 to sell. They have done 100% pick ups before for a lot more than 2000 anyway.

Geed Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Hoping it will be 100% pick up as there only 2000 allocation and gaurentee at least 400 will be snapped up by harvesters which could leave some people that have forked out a small fortune will miss out on an official point This game i hope it is pick up to which i am sure it will be as it would be easy to buy a ticket for this game at £3 and not go and pick up a point. Hope SFA have pick up point and anyone who dosent pick up there ticket in person dosent get a point, be to many folk that will chance it buying one for this game and unfair to fans who spend money travelling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully mate, i am not going to the game just too much money for the flights for literally lucky get a day in the place. Just think there will be a lot folk chancing buying a ticket and not going. Hope SFA insist on pick up to ensure folk arent getting a point if they are not genuinely travelling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biffer Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 2000 tickets is less than 4% of capacity is it not? Fair play on the pricing, but it's a poor allocation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donaldo87 Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 I reckon it was therefore 10GEL a ticket so we're being swindled out of 15-20p Multiply that by 2000 and it all adds up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

calum83 Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 i have to wait until next week im only on one point if im number 1999 out of the 2000 i will be happy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cranna Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Whats the liklihood of non SSC members getting tickets for this one in the official away allocation? If 2000 tickets have been allocated and say 1500 take up tickets will 500 go on public sale or be returned? I have been to 4 away games so far without applying through SSC and wondered what the liklihood would be of getting a ticket in away end this time.

kumnio Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 The SFA quite often sell tickets to non members at the collection point at away games. You might get lucky and get one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tartanpar Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 2000 tickets is less than 4% of capacity is it not? Fair play on the pricing, but it's a poor allocation. The ssc had a poll asking members if they were intending to travel. 1600 replied to say they were. The sfa probably only asked for 2000 tickets as that is plenty to satisfy everyone travelling. I am sure if the 2000 sell out the ssc will be able to get some more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SY Cove Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Haven't been to an away game for ages now, I'm on 0 points, if I'm able to buy a ticket next week I need to make sure I can pick up in Tbilisi cause I ain't in Scotland, what's the best thing to do, phone them up????
