Much the same as Budapest, you need to buy a membership but as long as you have your passport etc you can do it on the day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easy to get tickets? when are you there? cracovias ground is on the estern edge of the centre,next to the national museum,wislas is in the same direction but a wee bit further out for any top division game in Poland you need to have your passport to get a ticket,theres a process to go through-for cracovia,i had to show the passport then they took a photo which was some sort of recognition software thing-to get in I held ticket under a scanner while looking into a camera.because of this process you don't want to be turning up 5 mins before kick off without a ticket-go day before or earlier in the day to get them.unless your visit coincides with a derby game I doubt youll have an issue getting in and even then I doubt it.tickets are cheap as chips,prob £5-£8,itll break your heart when you think how much of a rip off Scottish footy is. don't sit in with the ultras,or photograph them Edited August 14, 2019 by highlandcowden 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19QOS19 Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 Just copy and paste this:- Pollok 5 - 1 Kilsyth Pretty remarkable game. The first half was 0-0 with little happening and any Junior football critic would have been loving it so dire that it was. The second half was outstanding and demonstrated why Junior football is so well supported! I thought Kilsyth edged the first half without creating any clear chances. Pollok didn't look a division above, that's for sure. They must have been roasted at HT because they came out a totally different side. After taking the lead, Kilsyth's No. 3 scored an absolute rocket of a goal. Worthy of winning any game. But Pollok just ran away with it with a couple of really good goals themselves. The boy who scored the cracking FK managed to get himself stupidly sent off. First for the foul (a guy standing next to me reckoned it was a straight red as he kicked out. I never saw it). So he got away with that then started mouthing off at the ref and was rightly sent off. Kilsyth then got a man sent off for a second yellow and a penalty, leaving No. 10 with a chance of his (deserved) hat-trick. He failed to take the chance though. The game fizzled out from there. A cracking second half of football. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DiegoDiego Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 for any top division game in Poland you need to have your passport to get a ticketNot strictly true, unless things have changed this season. For Lech Poznan I inputted my passport details online when buying the eTicket and there was no check at the stadium. I could have entered any old nonsense. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DiegoDiego Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 so you did need your passport to get a ticket,then?No, I didn't. Ignoring the logistics of getting to Poland, I could have gone to that game not owning identification of any kind. At no point during the process was I asked to show id or send a photocopy/scan. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

19QOS19 Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 Craigroyston 1-8 Haddington Athletic last night in the East of Scotland League. Crowd about 70. Do you drive to all the games you go to? I've been going to games because I get free rail travel. You must spend a fair bit getting to the games? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually just take the car QOS unless there’s booze involved. It just takes too long by train or bus. This was easy last night just a nip across town. Longer ones down South will take the train / fly if I can. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've now visited all current junior grounds in Dundee. Do Coupar look any better than last season? Yes, despite today's result not suggesting that. They are better organised and definitely looked stronger. The first 30 minutes the game was pretty even. After a silly foul led to a penalty they let their heads drop and it was 5-0 by HT. In the second half it was pretty even again. Other results so far this season also suggest they have improved.
