If Lucernes finishing stays the same this Thursday, Sainties have nothing to worry about...

hope (honestly) that tomorrows result will be a close one. If Lucerne wins 4-0 or St. Johstone 1-4 or something ridiculous like that, it's going to be like travelling to Scotland to watch a friendly... I guess the priorities can be shifted towards the whisky then... Bookies odds suggest that you are rubbish!? It's the first game of the season for both teams, upsets are not uncommon, we have so many new players in the squad who have to get used to the style of play... Would not be surprised to see St Johnstone leading 0-1 by half time. Game maybe ending 1-1 or a narrow 2-1 for Lucerne... But then: I am rubbish at prediting results...

Tickets sortet for the Game in Perth. Visitors in West Stand, I guess that is the "normal procedure"... Looking forward to the trip Scotland!

And why do you guys use the English Plugs??? #goingToStayIncognitoInPerth :laugh:

There's a coop at Basel Main Station ("platform" above the railway tracks). If you have time, get beer & snacks there for the 1 hour ride to Luzern. Cheapest option. Weather => as mentioned by JCBT => Best weather in a month for you guys! Enjoy it! Oh: How to distinguish between the both Blue-White St Johnstone and FC Luzern Fans? Hint: One set of supporters all have a sun burn!!!

Fantastic Translation by Bing! :laugh:

Against Genk we had under 10'000. I don't expect more than 10'000 locals to be in the stadium. With your 700, maybe 10'700. So, there is no need at all to worry about the tickets. No travelling fan from Scotland will miss the game.

I can't find any OFFICIAL information. I would guess it holds roughly 1'000, like most sectors do in the stadium. => So no stress at all.

Against Genk under 10'000 turned up. It's in the middle of the summer holidays. Unfortunately not everyone in Luzern is as excited as I am. But the crowd that did turn up against Genk made it very, very loud in the stadium! The other 7'000 only sit and watch anyway, so it's going to be great!

We only got 437 Tickets for the game in Scotland. I am sure more than 437 Lucerne Fans are travelling. Would it be a problem to buy a ticket in an adjacent sector in Perth? I guess the game won't be sold out, anyway?

Gotta disappoint you. Maiden-Whise not much to be seen there!

Legends Prices: Do not know. Drinking Outside: Mid July usually no problem temperature-whise. Time-Whise: Groups of people drinking outside after 10 PM won't go down well with the local residents. Before 10 PM should not be a problem... As JustCantBeatThat already indicated: The "Polizei" might have other plans...

Yes, in the city centre the prices are horrific. There are cheaper options, though. This is not too far from the centre, costs under 10 CHF (£7) per day http://www.eiszentrum.ch/home/page.aspx?page_virtual_url=Langzeitparken There is one possibly free (not 100% legal I guess) option I am thinking of... PM me for information.

40 CHF (~ £25) for Swiss Motorway sticker needed, too. Can be bought at the Swiss border. https://www.ch.ch/en/swiss-motorway-sticker/

Same price if you buy in advance or on the day of travel. No need to book in advance, really... PS: Really looking forward to the trip to Scotland. Sounds like it's going to be a good one!
