Dear Footie fans,

An appeal for help - my knowledge of football can roughly be summed up
as "there is a ball and two sides, right?".

We have friends visiting 8-10th April (10th being a saturday).  They are
most keen to visit a football match.  Glasgow / Dundee / Edinburgh or
similar venues, preferably something in the top league (or top - 1).  Is
it just "first division" up here?

I don't know much, but they know even less about how we'd get tickets.

So .. any pointers?

Mine mostly comes from the Billy the Fish strip in Viz, but I can use
Google :-)

There's a Scottish Premier League
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scottish_Premier_League).

Here's a list of 2010 fixtures:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/scot_prem/fixtures/default.stm

I'd imagine that tickets are (a) as rare as hen's teeth, (b) as
expensive as a gold sandwich, though.

Good luck!

Miles

Hi Murray,

Fixtures that Saturday include;

Partick Thistle v Dundee (in Glasgow)
Celtic v Motherwell (in Glasgow)
Dundee Utd v Rangers (in Dundee)
Hearts v Kilmarnock (in Edinburgh)

All kick off at 3pm.  The top league here is the Scottish Premier
League, followed by Division One.  The Partick game is Div 1, the
others listed above are Premier games.

Regarding tickets for the above, you should be able to buy tickets
directly from the home side club in advance without too much trouble.
Take a trip to each web site, there should be details there on how to
buy.

For atmosphere and a one-off experience I would recommend the
Celtic/Motherwell game. I have no vested interests in any of the teams
:-)

Cheers

Rory

Hi Murray
I'm no expert either but I have some knowledge.
The hierachy of leagues  is:-
Scottish Premier League(SPL) - comprising teams such as Glasgow
Rangers,Celtic,Hearts,Hibernian
Division One - comprising Dunfermline,Inverness Caledonian Thistle
Division Two -  not very entertaining play by less skilled players  on often
mudbath pitches
Division Three - As div 2 but a more depressing 90 minutes.( 2 x 45 minute
halves)

SPL is all seated, maybe div 1.
For a fixture tickets and costs  call  one of the clubs of the match you
intend to go to. I know the Dunfermline Chairman and I think a ticket there
is ?19/game, so by the time you add parking, the pub and maybe a meal, and
possible getting drooked, it adds up to an expensive afternoon. BTW Remember
the *Offside* rule.
I played for the local Boys Brigade where I lived, only because there were
only eleven boys in the club.  Also, I had customers who were shirt sponsors
to Dunfermline  and St Johnstone.

As well as the leagues, there is the knock-out Scottish Cup.    You may not
be able to get match dates so far ahead. Select a club, and call their
office.
Report back.

For a regular league match you will always find tickets available.
Although your weekend is around the time of the league 'split' - which
could prove to be quite 'squeeky bum' for Motherwell (or who knows,
Celtic) and thus might make it a more attractive game and more likely
to sell out.  Maybe.

If you chose this game I'd phone the club now and ask see if you can
buy tickets.  The online site they use don't offer tickets that far in
advance.

Think tickets are about ?28.

Cheaper than I'd thought! More of a gold amuse-bouche. Andrew's right,
though, you have to allow for match-related incidental costs.

NB: it is not actually necessary to understand the off-side rule, merely
to be able to argue about it in a loud voice :-)

At the next Git Appreciation Society^W^W^W Edinburgh.pm meeting, remind
me to explain the off-side rules of the Eton Field Game, which make the
Association Football version look positively rational...

Hmm.  Should we introduce an off side rule for edin.pm meetings?  Anyone
using MS without a linux kernel ahead of it in the stack perhaps?

ps. thanks to all for the advice.  Much appreciated!

Hi everyone,

Just a heads-up about this Thursday's Cult Film meeting, which will be
held at 8pm at Dan and Chris' flat, 10/5 Teviot Place. We'll be showing
the classic 1988 post-apocalyptic anime film Akira. There has been talk
(much of it from me) about adapting the Roxanne drinking game to this
new medium[1], but I don't think it will be compulsory to play :-)

Yeah, sounds good.  Probably can't quite make it by 6pm, but I

Oh no! Though with the weather as it is today, I can't blame you.

We shall miss you.

To make the game more interesting, I think we should also penalise false
challenges. Hence, you have to find ways of using the syllables "I pad"
innocuously - "I pad column-structured data with whitespace", for

Which made me wonder : will twitter eventually (re)produce the works of

Bots reposting the original not withstanding.
