Sfa Delegation Visited Skopje - Tartan Army Message Board
Acording to a post on the TAMB, Scotland have requested 2,000 tickets for the Macedonia V Scotland qualifier for the 2010 World Cup.
The SFA’s Richard Simpson and security advisor David Kirkwood visited Scopje and inspected the facilities.
Macedonia are advising that the game will probably be an afternoon kick off as the stadium does not have flood lights.

TartanArmy.Net | Scotland Football Match Programme Guide - 1920 - 2007
This guide is compiled by Andy Mitchel who some will remeber used to be the SFA’s Communications Director. While working for the SFA Andy was able to gain an invaluable insight in to games gone by.
I ordered the book via ebay and it turned up 2 days later. The book is a wopping 79 pages long covering every Scotland game from 1919 till then end of 2007. The book is broken down in to the type of tournament such as Internationals, B Internationals, under 21’s, Wimens games, and then per season.
The book lists out the date, oponent, venue, score and if a program was available. It also lists if there were multiple versions, large print, or press only.
