Surely thats their problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iainmac1 Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 (edited) Is the SSC not normally at or very near to capacity? You would imagine with the England home game most would renew. There can't be huge amounts of new members? Edited March 9, 2016 by iainmac1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wheres the pies Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 I think the demon drink has kicked inn at some point hence the post it can happen from time to time ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haggis McBasher Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 (edited) So he's annoyed that people are joining the ssc because of the England game? If he's already a member then he'll be well ahead of them in the queue. Maybe those same folk are following club football on a weekly basis and therefore contributing to the national team rather than sitting in the Black Country planning their next Scotland away day and looking for pre match parties.

blackcountry jock Posted March 9, 2016 Author Share Posted March 9, 2016 ??? yes the demon drink had a lot to do with the post so came across bit wrong my point is why are most folk creaming themselves over the England game it isn't our biggest game of the campaign... Fair play anyone is entitled to join the ssc but a fair few are only joining because of this one game that is all I'm saying ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very simple I sat in the away end in Germany and in the neutral bit in Gibraltar so I only have 2 points and my sons one has one point the other two are new members so I gambled on it goin to zero points and it didn't pay off but that my fault no one else's my point was very simple why is there a large number of folk creaming themselves over one game when it actually isn't the biggest/most important game of the campaign Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cove_Sheep Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 How did he have 0pts ahead of the Gibraltar game if he was in the away end in Germany? Did he get a ticket from a harvester? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rory Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 There is always gonna be a lot of folk going on about the game down in Wembley. Its a massive game for us, with it being years since we last played competitively but we've still got plenty of games before hand to worry about. Those that deserve a ticket will get one so don't worry about that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haggis McBasher Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 The same reason Celtic and Sevco will have 50k at Hampden for the semi final when they wouldn't otherwise have. Loads of people only turn up for what they feel are the biggest games. It's disappointing but nothing new and certainly not exclusive to Scottish fans.

You lost out on tickets to people who had points, and therefore were existing members? Good night though was it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaryWood34 Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 I'm pleased more people are joining for the England match. Very pleased. More new fans the better, they'll get hooked like I did all those years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
