Bring Back Paddy Flannery Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 I'm hearing plenty Pars fans are giving this one a miss due to costs? I'm told it's £22 for this game? Add in cost of travel, food, drinks, then the bloody traffic it makes it quite a costly time consuming game. It's 20 quid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pleslie99 Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 It's 20 quid. Come on BBPF don't let that get in the way of the weekly moan about prices at our Lego brick stadium. I think we should move to a 4000 seater all singing all dancing stadium in the middle of nowhere to solve this issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should all be charged the same price for the league we are in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P475 Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 I have to be honest here. I'm a season ticket holder and don't really pay attention to our pricing. I've read that we charge many teams less than they charge us? If there is a two pound difference then I'd rather give it to charity than a hard necked, greedy, money grabbing club to get into their miserable cauld grund. It wouldn't be so bad if you lot had a half decent stadium but, it's a bloody hovel min. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are covered from the weather and in a fairly comfortable seat. What you hoping for? Toilet attendants to wipe your arse for you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Vojáček Posted January 4, 2018 Author Share Posted January 4, 2018 It's a fucking disgrace that Dumbarton is so far away. Count me out. I remember we were playing Falkirk on Alba a few years ago. It was set for a 17:15 kick off on something like December 19th, and their fans were all hitting out with patter like that.Can we just use this thread to highlight our favourite Falkirk fan moments actually, it'll be more fun than the game.

Shandon Par Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 It's deceptively far. You see the rock and think "almost there". Then the road keeps going, and going, and going. You should think about relocating somewhere further east. Then there's the whole Dumbarton/Dunbartonshire issue. You do have a drive-thru Costa though.

Was staying in a hotel by Loch Lomond last week (not the burny one) and had the pleasure of going through Dumbarton. If you could move to Currie then I'll happily give you £22.
