doulikefish Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 Looking at the current points table it's a guaranteed ticket for two pointers and a scramble for those on one. Still praying they sell them before the Slovakia game as that would guarantee me unless there's a really weird shift on points based on the Malta game going on and Poland coming off. They shouldnt/wont sell them before Slovakia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie_B Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 Judging by the SSC's Twitter feed they'll be on sale post-Slovakia. There's only 1877 tickets for Slovakia, but we had 6200 at Nigeria - the game that will drop off - so there's going to be a huge number of people dropping points you'd expect-probably a fair chunk of those on one and two points.Pre-Malta there were about 9,250 members on points, approximately 6,250 on 2+. Even if those numbers doesn't drop and just stay static there would be a minimum of 1,350 to share between the 3,028 one pointers, and that's making the rather large assumption that every single person with points goes to Wembley. The allocation guarantees 80% of those currently with points a ticket, including almost half of those only on one.Still worried my flights and hotels are going to go to waste of course!

ScottR96 Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 So should I be alright on 2 points? Also is the allocation we received the minimum allowed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoBNob Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 You'll 100% get a ticket on two points. As far as I'm aware there isn't a "minimum" allocation anymore, it's just upto the two association's to fight it out. However 8% is above the old 5%, good going by the Sfa tbf.

Hammer Jag Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 I've bought a ticket for the England end. Just need to hope the FA don't block it because of my Scottish address. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pie Of The Month Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Points Table updated. 2+ guaranteed with 6587 on 2 or more points, leaves at least 1000 odd for 1 pointers. Correct as of 7 September 2016 Total Members: 28,130 Current members by number of points: 10: 2039: 2978: 4347: 6456: 6875: 8454: 9903: 1,1362: 1,3501: 3,044 0: 18,499 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie_B Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Assuming the Slovakia points (I think allocation around 1700?) are to be added and Nigeria subtracted, 2+ is definitely guaranteed, and at least 8000 people currently with points will lose one. Most of them will be 1/2 pointers dropping the Nigeria game. There's actually a fairly good chance that 7600 tickets will virtually guarantee pretty much anyone with any points a ticket. Approx 9600 people on points just now - if you lose 1500 one pointers from the Nigeria game, for example, you'd be very unlucky to miss out on a ticket.

ekfootball Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Great News! Everyone on 2 points guaranteed a ticket and at least 1000 folk on one point could get a ticket. This is all assuming that every single person buys a ticket which is highly unlikely. They'll no doubt be plenty tickets floating about come the game as well with supporters groups buying tickets but folk not being able to make the game. Can't see how anyone can argue with this as there have been plenty games over the past ten that people could have got to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eh,no supporters groups can buy tickets,you can bulk buy for friends/ family if all have enough points through there membership of the ssc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moo Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 Aye that's what I do as you get your seats next to each other if the money paid for the tickets come off that same card. Pain in the arse though as I'm on 7 and my other two mates are on 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBA Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 I'm on 6 points but will drop down to 5 after Slovakia. As mentioned, assuming the points are calculated after the Slovakia game, the Nigeria game dropping off will mean a lot of people moving down in points. Anyone on 1 point should get a ticket if they're quick enough! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
berwick-the-unbeatable Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 Got my ticket for this one yesterday, though in the England end. Look forward to getting it right up the lot of yous. Maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As mentioned, assuming the points are calculated after the Slovakia game, the Nigeria game dropping off will mean a lot of people moving down in points. Anyone on 1 point should get a ticket if they're quick enough! Think that's likely to be the case. I suspect anything up to half (who knows, maybe even more) of those on one point will be dropping Nigeria and they won't be getting a Slovakia ticket to replace the point. That would leave only about 8100 people with points at all fighting it out for 7600 tickets. You'd be very unlucky to miss out given you'd expect that, despite the appeal of it, not every single member will be taking up the opportunity of a ticket.

Pie Of The Month Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 Allocation increased to 13,700. Everyone on 1-10 points guaranteed with a few thousands at least left over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul-r-cfc Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 Delicious. Means the three of us can get them at the same time. On top of the home end folk, you're gonna have the best part of 20,000 Scots in there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lanky_ffc Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 Three of us travelling down with one guaranteed a ticket and a mate working on getting another two. We're all lapsed SSC members with 0 points as it stands, so that's welcome news about a bigger allocation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IainMorton Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 I'm on zero points and really hoping to get to this one. Only problem is I will be working at 10am on Monday 17th and I imagine they will sell out ASAP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mizfit Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 0 pointer, quietly confident, you can expect a few harvesters will be caught out, a majority pick up so people will bail, and at least 4000 for 0 pointers. The bad news? 18000 are on zero points [emoji23] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forameus Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 Ooft, might actually get a ticket now. Had planned to go down and visit a mate and watch it down there, but if I can pick up a couple of tickets I'll be delighted. What sort of timeframe are we looking at for when the sales start? Particularly for the diddies like me on no points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
