Scots reject tickets
NZPA-Reuter Edinburgh
Scotland has decided against taking their allocation of 1000 tickets for supporters when they play Belgium in a European soccer championship qualifying match at the Anderlecht stadium, Brussels, on April 1.
In the wake of the 1985 Heysel stadium tragedy, the Belgian authorities wanted Scottish fans to travel together and leave the country immediately after the game. The Scottish Football Association said it could not accept these conditions.
