Anyone received their match tickets yet by e-mail (as opposed to post)?

Got an email last night suggesting I turn up before 1.30pm to help with crowd flow. I like hanging around before a game to sample the atmosphere but 90mins before is a stretch too far. See you 2.30

Thanks.I mailed them and got a nice reply-though the tickets had arrived by e mail five minutes earlier!
Not received anything suggesting we have to arrive particularly early though.

Appreciate these are just suggested arrivals to meet Edinburgh Council rules but I got 1300 for my ST, i wish i had the time to arrive 2 hours early for an 80min match.

No mention if there are limitations around food and drink stands, Lions had bars close at HT.

Wonder what time folk will be asked to arrive for the Autumn tests?

We are 1.20-1.40pm. I really hope if they are going to have people arriving early there is plenty of food and drink. Good opportunity to make a few quid more.

it does feel like a long time given its a relatively small number of people and there are multiple points of aproach and plenty of room around the ground.

I havent heard of this happening at football stadiums, given they have much larger crowds and often more tightly configured.

It is ironic we managed to build a stadium just at the point everyone wants to spread out!

Went tot the Glasgow games and the early entry was the same. Wasn't the easiest to get there for 5.30 (for a 7pm KO) but there was no issue with arriving late. Most of the usual (not the best) eateries and bars were open. It will be interesting to see how they set out the new stadium.

Can only presume these areguidelines and no one will be tturned away for being "late"
To be fair though part of it probably being driven by the fact this is a totally new ground/stadium so whilst we are all no doubt familiar with Murrayfield no one-apart from those at the Open Day last saturday-has ever been before so bound to be a bit slower.Also as its the opening of the new stadium reasonable to presume there might be some sort of, albeit brief, "opening ceremony" before kick-off?

We too are 1.20 -1.45, normally just leaving home around then, just what we need hanging around from an hour plus before the ko, not so bad in fine weather but normal Scottish conditions might mean hypothermia. :lol:

interesting to read that most understand the reasons for being asked to stagger arrival, yet one poster who can't be arsed and wants to swan up as if it didn't apply to him, hasn't recanted not has he been called out.

No-one turning up late will be turned away, but surely to god everyone can see the reasons and try to get close at least to complying?
