Scenes on here.

Any stato remember the price for the Real Sociedad game?
 

Club have messed up here with this pricing for the 3rd tier European tournament against a team no one really heard of before we played them. Hopefully those who have coughed up this round get a % off next round if we get there

It was £24 for that game. Admittedly it was 7 years ago and not following a year and a half without being able to attend football.

Cormack had better be planning on dipping into kitty for players now. You can’t rip the fans off like this without a return 

 

Treating us like Yanks

Missing the main point, it’s the first proper game back.

Its piss poor and purely down to the pricing. Own goal by the club.

Spat my tea out when my mate said I was due him £32 quid for my ticket. That is scandalous pricing from the club.

What stand is that though and that's obviously non-season ticket holder prices?

So,what some of us have to travel 150 miles to support the dons at home ( 300 round trip)

yes that’s my choice but to hear some folk moaning about probably £9 differential from normal prices = 2 x pints in pub or a fish supper 

I know its all relative but come on guys put it into perspective  not everyone has the option of realistically making a season ticket viable

I think it's the principle though. 

First game back after fans buying season tickets etc despite not being able to get to games and they've hiked the price miles up from previous seasons and it's also a fair bit out of kilter with how other clubs in our league have approached their pricing for euro qualifying games this week. 

It feels a bit like a short term money grab. 

[Redtaz2]

Fair point

£25 is plenty methinks

Offer still there to get you tickets tomorrow. How much are you prepared to pay to go and i'll get the difference.

[starryfish]

Can this go to extra time and penalties? Possibly more likely now away goals rule has been binned.

See my post above.

11,000 sold as at about lunchtime. 

We’ll maybe get 14,000? 

Sensibly priced and would’ve been a minimum of 18,000 I’d think. 

 

On 8/10/2021 at 7:29 PM, Tord31 said:

I'm not having that 4,000 extra would have turned up if we'd charged the prices of 2 years ago. 

There will be other games, and I'm sure before too long, when we charge a tenner to get in or BOGOF, and we won't be getting 18,000 then either

 

22 hours ago, WesthillWanderersFC said:

So you don’t think we’d have significantly more in if we’d charged £20? Or even £25 as top whack?

Think you’re wrong Tord. 
 

It looks like we are going to end up with RDL, Merkland and Main sold out and under 1000 left in each of the RDU, South Home (X and Y) and South Away (Q and R)

So your 4000 number is looking wrong at the moment.

I agree wholeheartedly if we were giving away tickets cheap we'd have sold out easily but I just dont believe at all that if we'd charged burnley/ rijeka2 we'd have thousands of extra fans turning up.

[North_Andy_Dandy]

Cheaper pricing should have been used and could have had us with a sell out. But we’re still around the same amount we’d normally sell for playing a team of this calibre.

What?

Makes absolute sense. Under the away goals rule, only a 2-3 score line would have seen extra time and possibly penalties. 
Now 0-1, 1-2, 2-3, etc. would all take the game to extra time. 

[aberdeen1970]

Yeah there's still work to be done. 

Hopefully we have a good start like we did last week to settle everyone down and avoid a nervy night. 

[G31DON]

Aye the first goal is going to be a big one,  either way.
