Mutual acquaintance Junior, told me Tues, our allocation was still 3.6k, though wouldn't surprise me if the SFA 'somehow' increased that and sold all those tickets to Ireland fans as well...as in they're only interested in flogging all the tickets and don't care if there's a glut on any black market...
Do we know what date the FAI is going to let us know about the away ticket allocation? I know they left it late enough for the German game.
They are supposed to have confirmed by now, but often they don't tend to until they receive their tickets from the other FA. Maybe they are still hoping for more (see above)?
Ours were confirmed, but would give them a ring...
Hopeful of getting tickets officially but no harm joining list I suppose?
Will remove myself if Successful.

I think that's the updated list? Sorry if I missed anyone.

Think some of those are sorted...if the FAI get more, there will be loads of spares, even presuming it's sold-out. If it's not now, it's unlikely to be?
AB; our tickets are as close to block 116 as is possible without actually being in it, so what would you recommend in terms of trying to get our hands on official away section ones as well and then trying to get rid of the block 115 ones we have? If we could get block 116-120 tickets, do you reckon the logistics of having to collect the block 115 tickets in person and then get rid of them again would be difficult? Might we be best just sticking with what we have and saving a lot of needless hassle? I'd take myself of the exchange list if so. Presumably, there'll be some form of segregation between blocks 115 and 116 too? If I'm not mistaken, it's usually two human barriers of stewards doubled up on either side of a selection of empty seats during Old Firm derbies and the like; do you expect similar security to be in place here and do you envisage there to be segregation outside the stadium pre-match?
Apologies. My info was based purely on one or two posters on YBIG stating that they'd been on the site last night and there were no tickets left in any of the sections that had been open. Might the SFA have opened another section today? Or maybe those fellas were just blind, ha...
If anyone has any spares for this I would love to hear from them or go in the queue.
Yep it's me on the scrounge again
I thought you were off the drink Ronnie?

Everyone get sorted?
I'm in two minds about getting over... Gah. Stoopid college.
DID YOU NOTICE A SIGN OUTSIDE MY HOUSE...?
Anyway, stick me down for 2. I'm working on the logistics as we speak.
DID YOU NOTICE A SIGN OUTSIDE MY HOUSE...?
Ack, there'll always be repeats, but there'll certainly be no replays.[/terrible advice]
Yeah they've been becoming available all day in blocks or rows of seats at a time.
Anyone still considering this game **cough** should get on the sfa website and get sorted ASAP.

That green section in the South Stand Lower has seemingly had tickets on sale the past few days, but when you click into it, there are none available.
Cheers Danny - myself and the lads tried to get 4 in that section last night - but to no avail
Which makes me wonder - will the SFA open up other blocks for sale of tickets in and around the lisbon stand area ?
Or will we have to purchase tickets bang in the middle of the scotland fans further away from the Irish end? ....which Ideally we dont want to do
Have no issue sitting with the scots - always found to be a friendly and welcoming bunch but we want to be with our lot for such a big game.
Have the flights booked for Glasgow, so if the SFA dont open more seats in/near the lisbon end .....looks like we may have no choice
The SFA have had a few blocks in the Lisbon Lions Stand open for public sale over the past few days. I'm not sure what's left at the minute, but I don't envisage them opening up South Stand blocks or further Lisbon Lions Stand blocks. That's purely my own suspicion, but the public Lisbon Lions Stand tickets were promptly bought up, and by quite a few Irish fans as well, it seems, whilst I suspect the South Stand is or has been reserved for their own season ticket holders and regulars. To be honest, unfortunately, the best you can probably hope for now are tickets in the middle of Scotland fans. You might well have Ireland fans scattered around you as the tickets are on public sale, but, as I say, that's probably the best you can hope for right now, unless you can manage to get some from the FAI's official allocation.
Here's a photo of the away section in Celtic Park:
I'll be right along the wrong (left) side of the line of stewards. I'm hoping a rogue one might let a fella or three in green slip across a few seats to be at home with their brothers...
