Roker Rover Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 Still not got up to Ayr and I have been waiting for the league cup draw and games to see if I can knock it off then. Sunderland also have a friendly apparently on either the Saturday or the Sunday up in Scotland against opponents yet to be disclosed, so now thinking of a double header, taking the Friday off and heading to the derby. Question is, will we get tickets or because of it being a derby will they a) sell out or b) be restricted to people with a purchase history or c) turn up and pay on the door as game will not be close to a sell out? A visit to Ayr would just leave me with Brechin City to complete the 42. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume we could just ring the club up and book them over the phone for collection on the night? We will wait to see who, where and when this proposed Sunderland match is. As it stands at the moment it will either be one of the Euro sides who are not in the league cup, i.e. Celtic, Rangers, St Johnstone or Aberdeen. It could also be against one of the league cup teams who sit out that first weekend which would be Forfar, Hearts, Dundee, Arbroath, Dumbarton, Edinburgh City, Albion Rovers and Airdrieonians. There are also rumours that we will be playing Celtic at home on the 29th of July to celebrate 20 years at the Stadium of light and that would rule them out. Our chief exec has long term links at Rangers, so I am thinking that is highly likely but they may have a European match on the Thursday night which could be anywhere and may not want a Saturday home friendly and the same applies to St Johnstone and Aberdeen.

The attendance will undoubtedly be affected by the decision to show it live on BT but I'd be keen to hear your thoughts on the intensity & atmosphere of a game that we all hate to lose.

Ayr v Killie from the Somerset Road End will be as close to recreating Roker's Fulwell End as you'll get up here, if you can make one match in Ayr this season, make it this one.

They're also up playing Livingston and one other team as well. I'm guessing it's the third team that he's unsure who Sunderland are playing as neither the Hibs game nor the Livi game are on the weekend he's talking about.

We are also playing Livingston that midweek and then the St Johnstone match on the Saturday after your derby match. 3 of us are confirmed as coming up now and it might be 4 if my eldest daughter can get a shift changed. Looking forward to it and just hope we can get tickets. We will be wearing our red and white stripes as we always do at Scottish games (as it gets people talking to us) so feel free to come and say hello if you spot us. We will also be supporting Ayr on the night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roker Rover Posted July 6, 2017 Author Share Posted July 6, 2017 This visit is confirmed now. Three of us got Friday off and heading up to Ayr then going to St Johnstone v Sunderland on the Saturday. Tickets secured via your very helpful ticket office and just need to collect on the day. Really looking forward to this one and having done Brechin v Spartans last Saturday, this will be my last of the 42 Scottish League grounds.
