After what TAC said on another thread, it might be worth establishing exactly how many people on the board would go to this game so we can look to get a block booking and a bit of discount.

So put yer name and email down and lets see what the real interest is.

Right I'd go...who else?


-- Posted by TA Ealing on 9:23 am on April 24, 2002

I'd definately go +1 - email address below


-- Posted by mikeygloves on 9:26 am on April 24, 2002

I'd go.  We've now got enough for a dinghy


-- Posted by Tartan Army Casualty on 9:26 am on April 24, 2002

Me and my better (?) half


-- Posted by scott7 0 on 11:27 am on April 24, 2002

Me too. i will go


-- Posted by marthacleaner on 11:39 am on April 24, 2002

I would be a 50:50 on going depending on when full cash due, cost etc and would be travelling with the other half


-- Posted by Fenris on 11:41 am on April 24, 2002

Aye, me & the one with wheels (missus) are considering it...

george@georgeandsheila.net


-- Posted by tartan tiger on 11:42 am on April 24, 2002

reckon myself plus 2 are 50% depends on work etc


-- Posted by Sacks on 12:05 pm on April 24, 2002

Depends on cost/missus etc.  Cannae commit 100% but may be able to thrash out a deal.


-- Posted by Craigos on 12:10 pm on April 24, 2002

3 of us 100%.


-- Posted by dave the bankie on 12:48 pm on April 24, 2002

-- Posted by HebridesBarEdinburgh on 12:48 pm on April 24, 2002

Me plus 1 - definate.


-- Posted by Rampant Lion on 12:52 pm on April 24, 2002

Me plus 1 probably. Got a stag doo in Barcelona in January, the wedding in Croatia in March and of course Lithuania in April, so just need to see how the time off and cash is.


-- Posted by Ally Macabre on 12:58 pm on April 24, 2002

Yep. (Two!)

Noticed on annanova today it was saying that Berti was wanting to play either Brazil or Argentina away.

So mebbes it would be Buenos Aires instead of Rio...
(Both fine by me).


-- Posted by wonderkid69 on 1:55 pm on April 24, 2002

Sweet talking the mrs at the moment GG. Canny see me getting there without her though. It would be dream cum true.


-- Posted by Andy Cowe on 8:17 pm on April 24, 2002

I'm interested, pity I'm terrified of needles though, you need 1001 innoculations to go there.


-- Posted by burst balloon no2 on 8:53 pm on April 24, 2002

me and another 3 or 4 would be definites.


-- Posted by steviefalkirk on 9:45 pm on April 24, 2002

-- Posted by The Kilt on 10:56 pm on April 24, 2002

count me in + 4


-- Posted by ReekySporran on 11:16 pm on April 24, 2002

I'll be there, might rule out Lithuania though, but Rio sounds a lot better place to be than Vilnius.......


-- Posted by Tartan Army Casualty on 11:40 pm on April 24, 2002

Right, by my reckoning, that's roughly 39 definites and about 13 definite maybes, SO FAR.

As soon as this game is confirmed, I'll mail everyone and get their departure dates etc, and we can take it from here.

Didn't think there would be so many folk interested. Must be the thought of scantily clad women in Rio. :biggrin:


-- Posted by Ali Beveridge on 12:25 am on April 25, 2002

would love to go . Depends on costs as i don't want to miss Lithuania trip, If around £600 i'll be up for it.

Me + 1 or 2 at least.

It would give me great pleasure to see how the Brazilians have adapted the skills we have shown them on our previous encounters.

Would we be expected to drink.......? :cool:


-- Posted by youngned on 8:45 am on April 26, 2002

bit late on the message board on this but myself + 4 others would definitely be up for it.  anyone have an idea as to what month it would be ?

It`s no the Rio Bingo there talking about Brian...............................it`s Rio,Brazil.


-- Posted by jersey jim on 11:29 am on April 26, 2002

3 of us form the sunny channel isles for definate.


-- Posted by Livy on 1:11 pm on April 26, 2002

I'm pretty sure that there's going to be about 3 or 4 of us , the numbers might drop if the game is not played in the Maracana ?

Is it still Feb ? that they're quoting as the preferred date ?


-- Posted by Tartan Army Casualty on 11:12 pm on April 26, 2002

Just makin' sure this doesnae drop ontae page 2.

Your not too late youngned.

Anyone else is welcome to add their name, and when it's confirmed I'll set the ball rooling


-- Posted by Shotts56 on 12:15 am on April 27, 2002

Definitely up for me (me and my siginifcant other).

Have been all over the world with Scotland, but ever since the day I started going (15 years ago), the dream of seeing us in the Maracana has always been there.

As soon as the game is confirmed I'll book - it's the one game Scotland could announce where I honestly couldn't care less what it costs - nothing in the world could make me miss it.

PS - magoo'd, but I still mean every word !


-- Posted by The Burst Balloon on 10:54 am on April 27, 2002

Valintines day in RIO my better half would have tae go ,bang goes the ISA ,BUT WHO CARES


-- Posted by MacDuffer on 7:06 pm on April 28, 2002

Anybody else?????????????????


-- Posted by alanmcgregor on 4:16 pm on May 5, 2002

Put my name down, although to be honest if I can get a cheaper flight direct from Moscow to Rio then I might go with that option.

Bonkers! :cheesy:


-- Posted by CraigieBrown on 10:49 am on May 6, 2002

I would certainly go tae Rio.  We would get lots of tips and other info in advance from a TA regular who has been out there for a wee while.  I wonder how many he could fit into his diplomatic residence in Brasillia!?!?!?!?!?


-- Posted by Tartan Army Casualty on 11:16 pm on May 11, 2002

just bringing this back to the top, in case anyone missed it

-- Posted by C Mc on 12:59 pm on May 14, 2002

Mr Goal,

Are you thinking about a 2 week trip, or shorter?

If it was 2 weeks 2 of us would be interested.


-- Posted by Wullie Anderson on 1:12 pm on May 14, 2002

2 here as well.


-- Posted by Tartan Sheep on 1:19 pm on May 14, 2002

Mebbes aye, mebbes naw - depends when it is and how much it would cost. Keep me posted, though.


-- Posted by Janco on 4:06 pm on May 14, 2002

Me + 3 others are definitely up fur it. No many games I can think of bigger than that. :)

janco@thetartanarmy.net


-- Posted by Gemmills Goal on 4:07 pm on May 14, 2002

C Mc - dunno, is the answer to your question. Might be worthwhile pointing out that I didn't have the intention of organising a trip when I started this thread. it was only to guage the numbers of people who'd be interested in going.

Mr Shepherd, your status as The Daddy is not in question. You have read THE book - you'll know how to deal with any situation that arises :hit:


-- Posted by Andy Gray on 1:33 am on May 27, 2002

Ethel says MOOOOybe!!


-- Posted by BOBBY MR BEAN on 9:50 pm on June 11, 2002

Started to save for this one !

Definately...no question.


-- Posted by Broony on 5:33 pm on June 16, 2002

According to today's Sunday Mail, the game is no longer taking place.  Can someone (anyone) please tell us what the pheck is going on?


-- Posted by Gemmills Goal on 8:58 am on June 18, 2002

Broony - don't think anyone knows what the final version will be. Apparently any game in South America was scrapped and the idea was then to play South Africa over there. Fuq knows what's going to happen. There's talk now of dumping the S/Africa game (probably cos we'd all get mugged or murdered) and playing Portugal instead.


-- Posted by The Kilt on 8:23 pm on June 22, 2002

i think berti has one of those spinning globes and just spins it and puts a pin in it!!


-- Posted by WillfaeSwindon on 1:10 am on July 4, 2002

"just spins it and puts a pin in it!!"

I cant think of a better way to pick friendlies.... aslong as it doesnt land on england, or Lebanon, or Afganistan, or Saudi arabia, or...................
