No. Basically told "tough" by the FAI. Get yourselves on the SFA site.

Can't see how they can promise any tickets other than what's on the website, as they must have sold tickets to home fans in virtually every section, unless, they are going to somehow move all of them to another block. But then that would also include lots of Irish fans too...
If 50k people have to pick up their tickets on the night, I predict disaster on that score...
And on the list of punters, are Danny, Sean & Bonnie all still looking?
I'm not as previously stated.
I'm not fit to take Paul's spares even if I was next in line. I'm a sham.
Need to edit yerself 'out of existence' on this one then...
Im sorted.

My Celtic season ticket is close to here. Quite often the 'restricted view' is if you are in the front two rows and you have a very low rail in front of you which does not in the slightest impede your view or sometimes it refers to the hand rail at the entrance to a gangway of steps going up or down to seats. Again, minimal impact on your viewing - The only possible issue here will be fans up and down, arriving late, going for a slash, getting food, that sort of pain in the ar$e stuff.
Long shot I suppose but if anyone has any ticket/s available of any description hit me with a PM.
There are loads available all around the stadium on the SFA site, TOWK, but I'll put you on end of list for two if you like? I'm gonna remove myself too as I'm sorted for some. I was initially hoping for some away section ones maybe turning up but I'm content enough with block 115 tickets as it sounds like there'll be a significant number of Irish fans outside of the designated away section now anyway and especially in blocks 115-117.

So the people in the Wanted list aren't buying off the SFA website because they want to be in the away section, that how it works?
Yeah. Leave me in the Wanted list for now anyway.
Cheers.
My 'FAI contact' tells me more away tickets are unlikely...at this stage...depends on whether the SFA, depending on whether they've created a market of scarcity value...by just selling certain blocks and whether they've kept any blocks back.
Our hunch is No?
Not a chance there will be more tickets from the FAI. During the meeting with representatives of YBIG they pretty much confirmed this and said source your own tickets from SFA.
Notably whilst lots more blocks have gone on sale, it tends to be the first 2 or 3 rows quite alot. Perhaps these were never going to be sold due to advertising restrictions, like in the Champions League where you can't sell seats directly behind the advertising hoardings - The SFA may have got some kind of dispensation? or perhaps they just always hold these seats back until all the others are sold as basically they are the worst view and you are more exposed to the elements etc...
Just guesswork on my behalf but it is bloody strange the way the SFA have gone about selling these tickets. We will be all over the place - Irish in every single block on three sides of the ground by the looks of things but whether that dilutes the impact we can make as a 10k+ support only time will tell.
will the FAI learn the lesson and restrict home tickets going to our fans only for the return match? probably not and our home support will be diluted by 20,000 scots all over the stadium. would be madness if this is allowed happen for the home scotland and poland games
Their way of dissipating Irish support I reckon, bassas...
On the plus side, it looks like there's some really good tickets available now, if you don't mind being away from the official away section.
Section FS1 on the South Stand (Front) are there now, would be an excellent view I'd imagine. I'm pretty torn with what to do but should really just suck it up I suppose.

Its a funny one alright. You see, the SFA might actually be very pleased with this. Not sure Strahclyde Polis will be but the SFA would (I imagine) rather the 10k Irish were scattered all around the ground than taking over the whole of the LL stand in its entirety.
So when it comes to the game at the Aviva, would our preference be to have 10-15k Scots behind the usual goal + a couple of blocks at that end of the West or East Stand? or to have them scattered all around. Its not like the Irish home support is an intimidating experience for the opposition team is it? ITs not even that much of a motivating one for our own team these days, though the SS has improved this somewhat in recent times.
I imagine the FAI will treat it just as the SFA have done, and the Scottish fans will just have to go an source tickets for themselves wherever JD sees fit.
Thanks. I've four seats together in there now if I want them... not sure what to do though. Don't think I'll have any way of getting rid, in the off chance we do end up getting sorted with the away tickets. The thought of collecting them is a pain in the hole also, as AB said, but hopefully they have a decent system in place.
