The Sunday Masons take on the StJ 3 stand malarky.

 

“Are StJ exploiting old firm fans”

 

Oh my fucking head!

[For Fecks Sake]

I would pay more to ensure they get less seats.

How much more and how many other regular visitors to Pittodrie would be willing to do the same - not many I would reckon.

[NEM]

I disagree NEM. It't the effect of being associated with Perth which has never been a Football town. How many St Johnstone fans have you met in your life? i don't know a single one.

They’ve never had huge crowds but they didn’t hand the old firm 3/4’s of their ground when they were at Muirton

[King Street Loon]

That was a one-off. That's pretty much established and accepted.

AFC have a core support of 10k.

Totally was.

I think the opponents enhanced the support as I think most of us expected to wipe the floor against a non OF team. Was only Celtic who were credible opponents back then.

Instead we toiled and participated in perhaps one of the worst finals in a good while.

[Shinniesta]

There were loads of non dons fans there, I know a group of folk travelled from Shetland, out of the dozen or so there, only about a third were dons fans.

That's true. Some weren't Dons fans and others claimed to be but had probably never been to a Dons game in their life and wont have attended any since that day.

 

Had the 9000 unsold seats above the ICT fans ever gone on sale we had enough demand to sell them all so we could actually have had 53,000 fans there that day.

 

I still say had the huns or Celtic been playing ICT that day that those tickets would have somehow been made available to them.

There has been Celtic fans above us in the South Stand at the last few finals we were in.

Exactly. Just another example of how fucked up Scottish football is.

[RUL]

I dont think the regulars would drop at all if that happened

I think your wrong

[shut up meg]

Really keen to see the maths you used to work out a third of the 40k were actual Aberdeen fans

 

Go on, this will be good...

 

The numbers were the numbers, out of the dozen folk down on the ferry from Shetland, from memory, there were 4 dons fans, at least 1 hun and 1 tim fan. The rest only ever went to Scotland games.

 

As for the rest of the crowd, I saw a lot of families with and old folk, whether they were dons fans or no, I couldn't tell you.

[afc1903mad]

sorry, but you’re going hell for leather to advocate more tickets for them.

 

Im a season ticket holder in the south stand and if I had to move again to accommodate them then I’d definitely make my opinion known and may indeed tell the club they are disrespecting our fans.

 

You mentioned an additional £100k (you’re maths are not correct but let’s go with it), we’ll I’d happily pay the additional £25 or so per season on my season ticket NOT to give the bigot brothers more seats

[strachanmcgheegoal]

Ah yes son. The Caley final. Wasn’t that a rare treat?

 

Fuck off Dad. We’re 3-0 down to the filth after 20 minutes due to managerial incompetence on top of being utterly shite. Fuck this, I’m off back to my Xbox/birds/hard drugs.

 

Wonder how many times that conversation has played out in the last 8 years.

Never having been to a game MM, how the fuck would you know?

[Arabian Knight]

[tightbreeks]

Away from home we're number three, hibs m hearts can bleat all they want. We are the juventus of scotland, outwith thrm two.

[tightbreeks]

A youtuber called fusionjosh went to the 2-2 at Pittodrie, rated our left back that day very highly. Im sure he said he bossed the game, who was our left back that day?

[tightbreeks]

Considine?

[WesthillWanderersFC]

Aye.

He was left back & scored the equaliser.

[tightbreeks]

G'an yersel andy. We are lucky to have him, if he had more pace he'd be playing with mclean in the epl. He reads the game which makes up for it, willie fishnchips miller.

[Misers Hill]

Yeah and where we dont, sell them to the other team

 

4000 more at 25, an extra £100k?

 

No brainer

Fuck off..

And the bill from Nazi police state Scotland..?

Go and watch Partick..

[maryhilldon]

So the "third of the 40k were Don's fans" CANT be substanciated?

 

Shock horror

He never said only a third of the 40k were dons fans, he said about a third of the dozen from Shetland were dons fans.

Exactly MHD, it's not really a surprise that mongotime didn't read my post prior to jumping in and spouting pish.

That final was a one off, lots of neutrals and fair weather fans out that day.

[Fridge]

Despite the win and the excitement of pens what a load of pish that game was.

 

Bet there were’t many first timers ever returned.

 

Probably a few guys took their wife’s and got accused of having an affair as it would be impossible to watch that shite every week.

[strachanmcgheegoal]

You forgot the collective FFS as Clangers dropped the inevitable simple cross and Russell bailed him out?

[Tyzo_1903]

Russell hit the post ana. Would of been fitting for him to score the winner.

[The Oxford Don]

Perfectly obvious that there were a load of daytripper / non-regular fans at the LC final, there were so many families there who were treating it as a day out. And why not? It didn't have any of the rancour or hassle of a cup final against either half of the filth, it was a national cup final and a guarantee of a huge Dons support. 

 

Subsequent finals against Celtic have given a truer reflection of our potential away support number - around the 20k mark. 

 

As for giving the OF more tickets at Pittodrie - GET RIGHT TAE FUCK.

Spot on, I took mine and was the first and last game she has ever went to

[Don Fonte]

Why the fuck would you take your missus to a cup final? Bizarre.

[Dons79]

Short answer is she wanted to come as she has no affiliation to football, as I travel myself to Pittodrie she feels sorry for me going aw the way up there masell,so she found out it was in Glasgow and jumped on the bandwagon!, there is no fellow don were iam

[Fridge]

So are you having an affair or not?
