DoonTheSlope Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 (edited) the english fans and londoners in general couldnt have been nicer to me even the old hoolies in the boozer before the game were very pleasant Agreed. Never seen an ounce of trouble and they were all sound down at Wembley Never seen an England fan in Glasgow till I was in the stadium Edited January 23, 2016 by DoonTheSlope Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottincarlisle Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 4000 settle down! England will give us at least 9000 tickets and I reckon between 15 - 20,000 Scotland fans will make the trip south! If the SFA play hard ball like they did with Poland, 5% is what we'll get. Cant see 20000 travelling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jagtag Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 If the SFA play hard ball like they did with Poland, 5% is what we'll get. Cant see 20000 travelling. Agree. We will only give England 5000 tops and don't expect them to give us much more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ByronLoon1986 Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Agree. We will only give England 5000 tops and don't expect them to give us much more. It will be the same as the 99 playoff! We'll give them 5000 and they'll gie us 9000 (maybe more) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Scotland's police force will want the minimum amount of england fans in galsgow, MET may have similar idea. The Met could police the game with their eyes closed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaid Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 The Met could police the game with their eyes closed. That's true. I think that one Sunday last year in London there were sell-out games at the Olympic Park (Rugby World Cup), Wembley (NFL) and the Emirates. It's only the former Strathclyde police force that are seemingly unable to multitask when big football games are on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Usually 6 home games every Saturday with hundreds of thousands of home fans criss crossing the City and tens of thousands away fans arriving via bus, car and train then again criss crossing city.

Squirrelhumper Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 The game will be a sell out. I would imagine England will limit us to about 4,000 tickets. If they do I hope we give them 2000. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squirrelhumper Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Agree, the england "fans" that came up for the freindly were a different bread than the home fans when we went down there. More neds and up for a bit of aggro. I thought our home support were also up for a scrap. Lots of jeans and casual tops ( burberry ) in both supports. Imagine wearing jeans to the football. We're not all wanting to look like we have fallen off a shortbread tin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orraloon Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 The Met could police the game with their eyes closed. And their pockets open. Just like any other day of the week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orraloon Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Imagine wearing jeans to the football. Aye, wearing jeans to the football, that's a sure sign of somebody looking for trouble, right enough. And, if both sets of fans were wearing the same gear, how did they know who they were supposed to be fighting with? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stewart_Aberdeen Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 I know, the cheek of wearing jeans to the football eh! I wore shorts & t-shirt to the Aberdeen game in Groningen. Could get used to that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squirrelhumper Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 I wore shorts & t-shirt to the Aberdeen game in Groningen. Could get used to that! I've worn shorts and t-short to many a Scotland away game. Wembley, Alicante, Skopje, Prague, Dortmund to name but a few.

We'll give them 5000 and they'll gie us 9000 (maybe more) The play-offs they got 6,500 up here and we got 7,500 at Wembley. Of course, we had a much smaller SSC membership then. I may be wrong but I think everyone who applied for a ticket got one. It was also a different stadium of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
