Change to Netherlands kick off time

Wednesday, 02 September 2009

2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa™ Qualifier
Scotland v Netherlands

Hampden Park
Wednesday 9th September 2009 Kick Off 7.30pm

Due to FIFA's wish to encourage a fair and sporting conclusion to our qualifying group, they have requested that the final matches next Wednesday night kick off at the same time.

This request was based on the possibility that these results could ultimately decide the final placings in the group.

Following this request, the Scottish FA entered discussions with the other teams involved and have agreed to move the kick off time from 8.00pm to 7.30pm.

This decision was made before the results of Saturday’s matches are known, to ensure that our supporters have as much advance warning as possible.

Therefore, no matter what stage the group is at following Saturday’s results, the kick off time for the Netherlands match will be 7.30pm next Wednesday.

Your current tickets are still valid for this match and will be accepted.

Please note that there is no change to the kick off time for Saturday’s game with Macedonia; this remains at 3.00pm.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.
