If it wasn't for last season and his 1 in 5 game worldie performance, I'd be thinking he wasn't cut out for this level this season. Some of the goals he's let in have been ridiculous and I've never seen/heard him communicate with his defence. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His value has certainly diminished this season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hk blues Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Post split games are going to be absolutely massive and i'm really not looking forward to that. Especially given our results after the split in the last two seasons. T.B.F. we were already safe on both seasons with nothing to play for. Except relegating Utd of course. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be really interesting to see how many we get into this game to see if prices really are keeping people away. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludo*1 Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 That's an absolutely cracking deal and it'll confirm one way or the other whether lowering the prices = much increased attendance. And Hamilton fans will rightfully be punted to the Main Stand. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only downside is it might sound like Tannadice. Edited March 16, 2017 by tree house tam 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Hamilton fans will rightfully be punted to the Main Stand. It's a great deal and something we should certainly be applauding. I only wish they'd do this for a more interesting game against the likes of Aberdeen or Hearts — I think that would be a fairer test to see if it works or not; try get Dens to a sell-out. Those that would go regularly would probably go to those games, pay less and find it easier to hook friends/family with the cheaper ticket. Conversely, many regulars might be tempted to avoid watching us play one of the worst teams in the league, albeit at a reduced cost. I suspect our crowd for the Hamilton game will be marginally higher, but roughly the same as when we played them earlier in the season, which was 5,287. Out of interest, how many fans would need to turn up for us to consider this a success (in terms of getting extra bums on seats)? Above our average gate (which is apparently 6,181 this season)? Or simply more that came to the first game when we played them? ETA: Assuming I'm right, in both scenarios (after factoring season ticket holders), we'll definitely lose money on this. We'd need to roughly double the amount of pay-at-the-ticket-office (not gate) attendance to break even, which I really doubt we'll do. Feels more like a cheap trick to try convince folk to come to a low-attendance game that, if we're being brutally honest, is against a shite, uninteresting team with a terrible away support where we'll likely put in another lukewarm performance ourselves. It's still a nice idea, but I don't think it will make very much different either way. Thank you. Edited March 16, 2017 by LiamDFC 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
