st Tommy Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 Not long now to our trip to hampden and im guessing tickets will probably go on sale within the next couple of weeks! It had been mentioned about asking saints for a block booking at hampden (similar to Dundee i guess) so that we can all sit together. Are folk keen for this? If so, how many are planning on going through? There was also some chat about heading through early, on a mid-afternoon train (half day at work may be needed!), so we can get a few pre-game beers on the go, either in the city centre or at church on the hill. any thoughts on this? Whos in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nold Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 The block booking seems a good idea. Definitely up for the half day that will more than likely also necessitate the next day off as well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geoff was right!! Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 Yeah i'm up for this one, who knows it might be our next game the way the weather is going. I'll probably go into work at 5 and finish at 1 then take the next day off. It'll let me have a couple of beers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whos in? Block booking would be good. Not sure if I will take a half day or just work from Glasgow then meet in town somewhere. Next day off would probably be a good idea though. I'm not fussed where we sit although the 'cheap' seats may be where the vocal fans go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kilgour Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 Wife and I deffo going.Would like to sit with like minded fans so block booking a good idea. Not too bothered about seats but £22 for preference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st Tommy Posted January 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 Saints werent keen to take a block booking where i wasnt buying for all the tickets up front. However, a limited number have been reserved in the £22 seats, so just mention youre with Edin Saints when you call up. If we sell the initial block set aside then we can ask for more (or maybe just ask to sit near the block booking), although we have to be confident of selling them all. i.e. they dont want to book 30 seats and then we only sell 15 - they would prefer to sell 15 and then have us ask for another 10 or so if needed.

Kilgour Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 Just phoned without checking and was politely told that as I no longer have a season ticket I could not apply until the 19th.Could understand it if briefs were tight but I would have thought all sales would be appreciated.

Strange. I'm not a season ticket holder and wasn't even asked if i had one. Just said i wanted one of the tickets for the edinburgh supporters section.

I mentioned the Edinburgh block booking but the lady sounded as though I was talking double dutch.I have no doubt we will get tickets but I would have thought £44 sale would be welcome.

Same for me, they must be worried that season ticket holders will miss out crazy but nothing more than I expected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nold Posted January 14, 2010 Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 Had a look for potential prices for the train and the cheapest I found was £10.60 on raileasy.com. Seems to give plenty of options for times of travel as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sm still to try and sort out a holiday with my work - if i get a half day ill probably just meet you in glasgow (go from Claires) but if i have the whole day off then ill probably get the train, maybe mid afternoon-ish?

ryangordon86 Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 Anyone getting the train through straight after work? I think thats the only option i'm going to have. not decided if im going yet but if i am, i'll either take the train or drive through after work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nold Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 Only 2 of the original 15 tickets left. They didn't keep any more tickets near the 15 so Dougie, Barney and I are in Row Y whereas I think you guys are in row F. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
