OneZanderDiamond Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 The Scottish Football Association is asking the Tartan Army if they are prepared to pay top ticket prices to bring Argentina to Hampden. A match scheduled for 19 November is under discussion between the SFA and agents for the Argentine FA. Top price for a competitive Scotland match is Link to comment
Dynamo Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 frigg them. Nice of the SFA to do this though Link to comment
vanderark14 Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 i' dont normally got to alot of friendlys but i reckon i'd go to this one. Would be good to see a team as big as this. as long as they ensured their top team and OURS was available but i could see the likes of Messi pulling a barry ferguson 2 days before hand.

Guest LondonScottish Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 What do we think? Absolutely no problem. Good idea. Link to comment
OneZanderDiamond Posted July 8, 2008 Author Share Posted July 8, 2008 I've gone for "same as a competitive match". I'm impressed with the SFA for doing this though. Good to see a professional football organisation thinking about it's fans for once Link to comment
Westhill Red Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 frigg them. Nice of the SFA to do this though Agree totally why should they charge extra when its only a friendly? Link to comment
Dynamo Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 I should maybe of said I wouldn't pay more than Link to comment
Jute Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 I voted tell them where to stick it as I will be in the US when game is being played so do not want mates sending texts reminding me that they are there and I am not. Link to comment
Virgin Don Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 Its a good idea that the Sfa has asked the fans. I just dont believe we should be getting ripped off just to play a friendly. Paid Link to comment
gypsymuffin Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 I voted yes, but no more than Link to comment

OneZanderDiamond Posted July 8, 2008 Author Share Posted July 8, 2008 With the poor quality at Aberdeen its great to actually cheer on real football players from the OF. Worth every penny. Link to comment
Site Sponsor RTYD Posted July 8, 2008 Site Sponsor Share Posted July 8, 2008 What do we think? Not for me. I couldn't be @rsed travelling all that way for a friendly. However if people are willing to pay it then bring it on. Link to comment

Sheep#1 Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 No such thing when Scotland play them Indeed. The SFA could charge a ton for a game against them and it could still sell out 3 times over. Link to comment
Holyjoe Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 I'll be back living in Scotland when that game takes place and I'd happily pay silly money for the game... but then I've not seen Scotland play since they were trounced by Korea back in 2002, so that opinion may change if/when I was to fork out the money.

At The Border Guy Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 The Argentinians are charging millions for this, so I'd tell them to stick it. I can't see us selling out a friendly at that price, and I certainly wouldn't want the SFA to piss away more money on a non-competitive match. And anyway... Scotland are well rehearsed in 4-5-1 defensive formations. Can we not just play an American/Asian/African team that we could actually have a go at? Link to comment
minijc Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 It is a good idea to ask the fans, i doubt i;d get a ticket but i think they should move it to Murray field just for the one off occasion, charge everyone Link to comment

Stuartini Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 been canned by the SFA http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/i...als/7506083.stm good on them for listening to supporters! Link to comment
OneZanderDiamond Posted July 14, 2008 Author Share Posted July 14, 2008 Got to say well done to the SFA again Link to comment
