@Scotlandteam Possibly Garioch RFC’s first ever full Scotland cap?

[Fergus Smail @fergussmail]

@juza_23 It’s certainly far from the days of Leighton and Goram in their respective pomps

[Fergus Smail @fergussmail]

@tailso1988 He’s actually been ok. One of few with some credit today.

[Fergus Smail @fergussmail]

@Geotweet7 @Official_T4O There are countries with players from far worse teams doing better than us in the WC - that’s got to be on the coach. And we just extended his contract 🤦‍♂️

[Fergus Smail @fergussmail]

@rangersrabble What about only making subs at 80 mins? That’s on him and we’ve been 3 down since 60 mins

[Fergus Smail @fergussmail]

@cfc1888_ Why has he made no subs? We need fresh legs and should have brought them on ages ago.

[Fergus Smail @fergussmail]

@soldier1691 @RFCNUFC23 And yet still Clarke doesn’t sub him. We’re going out and he’s sticking to his no subs until 75-80 mins rule. We’re probably going to lose 5 or 6 nil at this point so at least have a go.

[Fergus Smail @fergussmail]

@soldier1691 @RFCNUFC23 Didn’t understand the folk who wanted shankland starting. He’s never a solo striker and he can’t run - we need someone to chase every lost cause.

[Fergus Smail @fergussmail]

@EoghannMoi @scotball_ Yeah - he was not good against Haiti and that was with ankther striker alongside. I get ‘he��s a natural goalscorer’ but we need someone who can run all day and chase every lost cause - has to be either Dykes or Adams.

[Fergus Smail @fergussmail]

@OwnGoalHatTrick @StubHub Honestly - given I’m now waiting over a week for refunds for tickets never delivered I wouldn’t be that confident of getting a refund either.

[Fergus Smail @fergussmail]

@IcemanAthletic And as a Scotland fan I’d say the same for what I paid to watch us play Haiti having missed us in our last World Cup in ‘98. Doesn’t make it right necessarily even if it benefits me as I can access tickets I might not be able to if they were non transferable.

[Fergus Smail @fergussmail]

@TheRockOracle1 @1marklester @StubHub @ScottFriedman3 Or at least be honest and be entirely clear that it’s a one way bet - you’re just giving them your money for a ticket which you’ll only get if the price is at or below what you agreed to pay. Funnily enough no one would use them if they did that. So we should stop using them

[Fergus Smail @fergussmail]

@ScottFriedman3 @TheRockOracle1 @StubHub I’m starting to worry about the financial strength of the business given how hard they are fighting to pay clearly owed refunds. I wouldn’t rely on any ability for them to go out of pocket to cover for their charlatan sellers failing to deliver

[Fergus Smail @fergussmail]

@ScottFriedman3 @TheRockOracle1 @StubHub They deliberately hide behind a terrible user experience and impossible to navigate customer service and hope to get away with more than they get called on. Only way to resolve is through legal action / class action

[Fergus Smail @fergussmail]

@ScottFriedman3 @TheRockOracle1 @StubHub But they’re not doing this. They’re not even paying refunds. I’ve been chasing a refund for a fail to deliver and they keep blowing me off.

[Fergus Smail @fergussmail]

@TheRockOracle1 @StubHub @ScottFriedman3 Everyone using this shitshow of a platform should understand it’s a complete one way option. You give them money - they earn interest, and you will get the tickets if the price is at or below what you paid. If price is above you get no ticket and maybe a refund if you’re lucky

[Fergus Smail @fergussmail]

@CleGuardians330 @StubHub Basically if you buy from them you are buying an option on a ticket. But it’s one way. If price goes down they deliver, if it goes up they won’t. And they get to keep your money and earn carry on it in the intervening period.

[Fergus Smail @fergussmail]

@CleGuardians330 @StubHub Never using them again after this. And already worried about Harry Styles tickets I bought from them months ago for my daughter’s 13th birthday as have zero confidence on whether any tickets will ever be delivered for any event and customer service is nonexistent

[Fergus Smail @fergussmail]

@CleGuardians330 @StubHub Probably worthless as they’ll hide behind their T&Cs but we should do what we can.

[Fergus Smail @fergussmail]

@CleGuardians330 @StubHub Everyone who has been wronged by them should request chat transcripts to be provided for future legal action. Request at [email protected] but also screengrab or record all interactions where possible.
