GLOSTA Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 Given the lack of segregation or organisation and we were spread everywhere who knows but probably yes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sneckiebairn Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 No problem for folk with home tickets to get in the away end, so who knows? Electronic ticket recognition though so harvesters who didn't pass their tickets to needy real fans could be in trouble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easy excuse to say your ticket wouldn't scan & you were let through. One of our tickets didn't work at the Poland friendly & they just let us all in through a side gate.

Tartan Docs Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 spoke to a few people who were there over the last 48 hours and most seemed to think that there were approximately 1200 Scots in attendance. Anybody else disagree? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kumnio Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Id guessed at between 1200-1400, I think we had 800 there last time, and there certainly seemed to be a good bit more this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rory Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 There was us thinking we only had 1,200-ish. A local came up to us after the game... "Everywhere i look i see Scotland, there must be 10k of you!!" Locals thought we had the biggest away support that has travelled to Tbilisi. Even without the Harvesters attending Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wanderer Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 (edited) Was hard to get a clear picture, as were we sat down by the corner there was a gap that anyone could walk through from the home section.... noticed a number of guys in Mexico shirts just walked through.... also a fair number of Georgian flags went up in the away end when Georgia scored. Was funny when a girl walked in to our section wearing a 4/5 year old Rangers top and could not understand why she was getting "boo'd" and banter directed her way.... was only when she turned around to show that it had Arveladze on the back it clicked that she was Georgian.

Same thing happened on the same street as the KGB bar. A boy with a real Rangers top came down, at first he looked proud as punch expecting a warm welcome but as soon as he was spied he was hounded and after about 20feet you could see he changed his mind too just get the heid doon and get out of here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wanderer Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 I think i heard that the lassie was Shotta's niece.. or maybe that was the drink from my trip on HMS Loony Alba.. She was wearing a blue tartan kilt/skirt.... we actually thought she was Scottish at first, and she did walk into the Scotland end with this look on her face of being proud and almost "I am one of you!"...... She then started flirting with a group of guys who were sitting on the wall watching the match and taking some photo's, then just walked off.... she did seem to be really proud of the shirt.

She watched the 2nd half next to us in the front row in the home end at the 1/2 way line behind the 2 saltines,nice enough lassie sure she said she was related to Arveladze Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackcountry jock Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 Yes I did was very easy I counted 11 football players and 11 spectators watching them and now and again chasing the footballers around trying to get autographs I presume as the certainly weren't after the ball ??

Bristolhibby Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 Witnessed that at the KGB bar as well. Total bangers booing the lad., no need for it. Saw that. I assumed he wasn't to know the baggage that that top would bring. Felt a bit harsh IMHO. J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goozay Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 Saw that. I assumed he wasn't to know the baggage that that top would bring. Felt a bit harsh IMHO. J When he get past the row of bars up to where the mad wifie was throwing water, a fella in a Scotland top and kilt stood up, shook the Rangers-top wearing Fella's hand, kissed him on both cheeks and gave the vicky to those that had booing. Everybody laughed. Guess you missed that bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bristolhibby Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 (edited) The lad was clearly Georgian, not that it should make any diiference.Oh yes, I assumed that. Saw similar but the other way round in Kaunus back in 2006. Lithuanian lad with a Celtic top getting rocks off a completely coonted Scotland fan (presume Rangers). His mates were holding him back. Thought that was extremely poor form at the time. Thing was the Celtic top sporting Lithuanian was built like a brick shit house. Must have been a bouncer by profession. The Scottish lad would have gotten his teeth in his hands if he had managed to land a blow on him.

Do you not think that it might provoke some reaction Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
