Robroysboy Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 Many people are happy to go to a tournament game whoever is playing (not for me personally). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottincarlisle Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 I think they said today that there had been 4 million applications received. Think it finished at over 11 million applications Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goozay Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 The tickets will be dirt cheap wont they? Why the need for points though? If we get to the Euros there will be plenty of tickets going around. No French people in Bordeaux with tickets for the Scotland v Iceland group B match will give a flying f*ck about going. We haven't qualified for a play off since 2003 and we haven't qualified for a tournament since 1998. If we have to go through a play-off both legs will be over subscribed. If we manage to qualify demand for tickets for the 3 group games in the official Scotland end will be unprecedented. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eastiebeastie Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 I have had to pick up on 5 occasions since my first one in Iceland 2002. Pain in the backside and an uneccessary task in this day and age when a postie can deliver for the price of a stamp....or 3 stamps in the case of the SFA. 45 min q in Kiev. Middle of nowhere in Iceland & Moldova Return train journey in Amsterdam. No thanks in Tblisi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kumnio Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 Moldova pickup was in the centre of town, and Iceland pickup was 5 minutes walk from the stadium. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cove_Sheep Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 Kyiv was down to morons in the queue ignoring the fact they were told they would only be given their own ticket and arguing with the lassies at the collection point about it.

Shotts56 Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 If we get to the Euros there will be plenty of tickets going around. No French people in Bordeaux with tickets for the Scotland v Iceland group B match will give a flying f*ck about going. The Scotland-Norway game in Bordeaux in 1998 was the hardest one of our three games to get tickets for. Two of my mates had to buy tickets out there, and the Bordeaux one was by far the most expensive of the three matches from the touts, such was the demand. I think more Scotland fans ended up watching the game in the city's World Cup Village than any of the other venues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squirrelhumper Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 If you take the time to watch the after match clips in Dublin and see how many Scots fans stayed back at the end when most of the Irish fans had left you will be surprised at how many Scots where in the stadium.I would 20,000 easily in Dublin that weekend. Most in the ground and quite a few thousand watching in the pubs. Nowhere near 20k. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham of Montrose Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 (edited) Nowhere near 20k. Doubtful if half that. Edited July 20, 2015 by Graham of Montrose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khana Lagur Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 I was told by one of the security workers at the stadium the day after the game that the estimate for Scotland fans in the away sections was 3-4k, which when added to the official Scotland allocation would give a total of 7000-7500. I'd say that was about right. By the way, the last time we played in Tbilisi the attendance credited to Scotland supporters was 1400.

Gothenburg83 Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Similar to Macedonia where it was the perfect game, yet only a small number were asked to pick up...... And they still managed to lose my ticket! Imagine if it was 100% pick up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eastiebeastie Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 (edited) Moldova pickup was in the centre of town, and Iceland pickup was 5 minutes walk from the stadium. I wasn't staying near pick up in Moldova hence the hassle and the stadium in Iceland was a half hour walk from our hotel. A simple posted ticket would have been far simpler.

wanderer Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 I wasn't staying near pick up in Moldova hence the hassle Neither were we, but the hotel was just off the main drag and a stones throw from most the main bars and restaurants that everyone was gathering in.... plus the stadium was just around the corner.
