The merchandise missed opportunity is brutal. Scotland is about the only country where it is virtually impossible to buy a jersey before the game (or at all). This JD deal is a feckin joke. How about some nice plain cotton polo shirts with embroidered badges? Decent beanies or baseball caps? V neck sweaters again classy and subtle. Instead we get low stock, no input and cobbled together nylon polo shirts. J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flora MaDonald Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Game confirmed and SSC confirm that all season ticket holders will get a free ticket for the game as a "thank you" Oh, hold me back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killie97 Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Game confirmed and SSC confirm that all season ticket holders will get a free ticket for the game as a "thank you" Am I reading the SFA email correct - I don't see any mention of ST holders getting a free ticket. I read it as, if you are a SSC member and you buy all 3 home tickets by end of January, you get the NI ticket free. As ST holders have already bought all their tickets, where is their free NI ticket ? To paraphrase - SFA - buy a season ticket and save a couple of quid. NAW SFA - OK buy all your home tickets at once. NAW SFA - OK buy your home tickets just prior to the games. OK SFA - Buy the 3 Home tickets now and get a NI ticket free.

First one out to ST holders saying they get a free ticket as a "thank you". Later a 2nd one followed to other members saying that they get a free ticket also if they but all the remaining home games in a package for that. If you do not take that then it's £15-25 for a NI ticket on its own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't need to apply or anything, tickets will be in the same seats as ST & will be posted out nearer match.

Langtonian Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 why do the sfa just not come out and say we made major Cnut of our ticket pricing in the first instance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runningtings Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 I think it's as close to an admittance that they got it wrong as we'll get. We'd be going to all home games anyway, so 90 quid is no bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kumnio Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 NI on a Wednesday night, nah, no thanks. I couldnt think of a less appealing game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eastiebeastie Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 It's not appealing at all but it's fair enough in terms of preparation for Gib and Ireland in June. Happy to trust wee Gords friendly selection so long as the June one is tasty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmcca5 Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 I think that it’s a good gesture by the SFA, I have a season ticket and will get the free ticket but living down in England can’t go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1ANDYP Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 it is a good deal £90 for 4 games, I will be getting this. No doubt the moaners will still moan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deecie Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 It's only a good deal if you can easily get to Hampden on a Wednesday, Thursday and Monday night. And want to see Gibraltar play international football. And like sitting with families. They would be my only problems with this deal.

No doubt the moaners will still moan It's not a good deal but it does put the prices closer to what I think is acceptable and will probably buy one.

wanderer Posted December 17, 2014 Author Share Posted December 17, 2014 TBH it was the England ticket forced on to the Season Ticket sales which made it look worse than what it really was. Take that one off (and to be honest, it should have been optional) and ST prices were a little bit more acceptable. It has just been one big balls up from the start and one hopefully the SSC will have learnt from.......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robroysboy Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Agree that this is as close to an apology over the ticket pricing that we are going to get. I hope that they have learned their lesson and price the next campaign correctly, heres hoping 1. Wee gordon takes us to France 2. The SFA realign their pricing policy to an affordable rate. 3. We get full houses for the next campaign, even against the smaller nations such as Georgia or Gibraltar. We are on the verge of getting the opportunity to qualify for a major tournament, the last one being 1998. Please don't f@ck this up SFA. In GORD we trust Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wanderer Posted December 17, 2014 Author Share Posted December 17, 2014 I really doubt prices will fall..... if we qualify for the finals, they will stay the same across the board, if we don't, I expect vast majority of the games to stay the same, with probably the pot 6 team priced more accordingly (to me that is the biggest kick in the face.... all the other games I am happy to pay what they are offering.... some more grudgingly than others).

I think 25-30 is a fair (ish) price for Germany, Poland and arguably Ireland. Gibraltar and Georgia 15-20 max. They could have sold out the stadia at those reasonable prices. Overhyped freindly against england shoehorned into the season ticket was not popular. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
