Tossers of the highest order Interesting someone else has notified this and not just me. Has happened quite a few times to our group. sitting/standing in/at your own seat seems to be unreasonable in the eyes of some of these folk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks as though all sections in B,C,D and F are all fully sold out(plus A&,6 and 5). G1, I3, I6 and P4 look pretty much sold out too- so if anyone knows the Hampden section seat numbers and can be bothered to work it out then you could make an educated guess at the "at least" number of tickets sold. That is of course if all those tickets were on sale in the first place and the folk turn up.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even those in full gear and feathers are generally a good laugh and keen to watch the game. There's folk on zero points who are also complete arseholes. Last campaign was horrendous for being beside idiots. 3/5 games we had folk beside us who were complete d!cks. I don't mind folk who go to every game, even with the money I wouldn't be able to devote my time to it but each to their own. The feather cap/3000badges mob are past their sell by date though. Smacks of 'look at me' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RenfrewBlue Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 How folk dress is immaterial. it's how they behave that's the problem. Too many pissed up halfwits staggering about at games who think they're special in some way. I only go to the Family Section as I have my 3 boys with me and the language and behaviour is generally poor. It also appears to be acceptable to stand for the 90 minutes and block the view of children because "I've followed Scotland all over the world". Cretins. The folk wearing kilts etc have been the ones doing the least harm in my experience although I'm glad I'm not sitting facing any of them. ?

I said something once and almost got punched so for the last few times I have crossed to the auld fart side in the south stand (William hill stand? Aye. That'll be chocolate). Nicer facilities. Everyone sits doon. Fewer arseholes. And I'm not trying to see the game through 20 foot feathers and listening to bam pots singing about Engerluuuuund. Ach. Maybe I'm just getting too old.......

Return of Yermaw Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 (edited) the perceived increase in arseholes attending is probably related to folks/society increased lack of tolerance of behavior that doesnt conform to their own views as to what is acceptable. for instance those that like to sit in their seat for 90 mins consider those who stand and jump about to be arseholes. Those who stand and/or jump about consider those who ask them to sit down to be arseholes. Some folks consider those with feathers in their hats, kilts or big flags to be arseholes. Those in kilts consider those in no colours or without TA standard issued attire to be arseholes out for bother. and so it continues. As for those attending pished, well, lets just say that it would reasonable to say there would be far more folks attending more pished 20-30 years ago. All in all, if you think there are more and more arseholes going to Scotland games, then i suggest it is more a reflection on your own narrow views as to what is acceptable behavor and dress at a football game or indeed a Scotland game. As for me, i alternate my behavior and dress from game to game. last home game i was in my kilt sitting quietly throughout studying weaknesses in Poland's formation and shouting out helpful tactical hints to Strachan at opportune moments. This time will be in jeans, pished, louping about with the football a mere distraction. Edited October 8, 2016 by Return of Yermaw struggling to spell behavior the same way twice.
