Can't say I am impressed with that. Should be on 7 after Lithuania. Suddenly worried about how good 6 will be for getting one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glasgowmancity Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 I should be on 8 after Friday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arbroath55 Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 Just checked my SSC account and I've got 4 but one of these is Poland which should drop off and be replaced by Lithuania. So, do I apply as a 3 or 4 ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glasgowmancity Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 Yeah, just had a reply on twitter, not going to argue with them but pointed out it was disappointing that they are changing their own rules for potentially our biggest away game in years.

Let down by them again, suited themselves to shaft a few, Guys on the likes of 4,5, & 6 points who went to Lithuania could now miss out on what could be our biggest game in a decade.

DoonTheSlope Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 Will they make the next away game over an 11 game period to compensate? Or as they've changed the whole system as off next year is it a case of them saying ye's? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BMan Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 That's an absolute disgrace. Makes a complete mockery of the system. If you have earned a point you should be granted it straight away. How out of date is their system? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not that you won't get it, you will get the point but your not getting it added until after the sale period for Slovenia has passed. They're saying it takes two weeks to add, which means it will be on before the game date but not in time for the sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if it's just for the 3000 odd who got tickets. How hard is it to change a 3 to a 4 for example ffs!!

captain Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 Disappointing to be receiving only two thirds of the allocation England received; looks like we need better IT systems, more resource and better negotiators. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd hazard a guess that Slovenia are reluctant to give the same allocation out as they could be looking to beat us to qualify for play off's. However unlikely that may be.

j b lyons Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 Does not seem fair not to add the Lithuanian point but that said like someone else already mentioned, Poland should have dropped off with the addition of Lithuania - I was on six before Vilnius so would have remained on six with Poland dropping off. I would imagine this would apply to quite a few but it is wrong. I would imagine that all on 7 points + will get a ticket and a good proportion of 6 pointers but beyond that it will be a struggle I think as I suspect 2000 plus travelling for this one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shocking. They have had 1 game to deal with since November 2016 and unable to get this updated. Feel for the folk who are on 6 points that are now on 7. There the ones who will miss out here. Looking at the table it looks like about 50% of the 7 pointers are able to get a ticket if the 8-10s snap up their ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tartan_McCole Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 It's pretty lazy that they can't get the points table updated. Surely they could have had this provisionally done once the Lithuania tickets were sold? Only really had to tally up the people collecting tickets in Lithuania.

This game could be every bit as important for Slovenia as it is for us. They've gave us a low allocation as they want to create an atmosphere to spur their team on and rightly so IMO Imagine the outrage if we'd given Poland 10,000 tickets two years ago Its unfortunate for folk who will miss out and the situation is certainly not being helped by the SSC not adding on earned away points Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

captain Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 Agreed. Would obviously be the ideal world situation where people knew likelihood of getting a ticket before they booked up, not the cheapest of trips this one. At least with Hampden, the tickets available for away fans, much like many other grounds, is a section that rarely changes, so you know better beforehand. I took a stab at 1800.
