Gaz FFC Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Well that's Dundee sold out for Saturday. Will be pretty embarrassed when we run out to about 3500 on Saturday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The club could advertise, put the prices down and do nye on everything they could to entice people to come on Saturday and we still wouldn't get a sell out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep. Be lucky to get 4500 with any of the above. We are slipping towards Inverness and St Johnstone territory. Sad times 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately the cuntishness from some of the "support" really is pathetic. The TEAM need the support, whether they like the board or the hangers on that say they are trying to help the club. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are done with football just get on with it. Don't tell me about how you aren't going back until mr x is away. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gav-ffc Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Yeah why reduce prices to allow fans who come as they please get to a game. I work 3 Saturdays out of 5 so go as much as possible but willing to pay full price as often as possible . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshmallo Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 The club could advertise, put the prices down and do nye on everything they could to entice people to come on Saturday and we still wouldn't get a sell out. But could we add 500+ to the gate? Of course we could. There a serious lack of graft from a lot of people at the club. What I find pathetic is how shit their promotion of this game has been when we were told in November that a fourth round cup tie was "the biggest game of the season". I'm actually getting angry thinking about it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEEJANGO Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Probably this, maybe some changed details. Not sure what the away kit will look like though. Very smart. Wouldn't mind the Dundee one being similar to this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Master Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Well that's Dundee sold out for Saturday. Will be pretty embarrassed when we run out to about 3500 on Saturday. But I'm sure your embarrassment will be forgotten at 4.45pm if results have gone your way. If the roles were reversed, and you needed to draw to win the league and we were relying on two teams slipping up, we would be running out to about 4,000 and you'd have a near full-house. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToonBairn Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Why are we offering Luke Leahy another contract? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andreas Kelevra Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 I think Leahy is a decent player, can play a number of positions on the left or off the front man, I thought he was harshly treated at the start of the season, he played well in the opening games. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we do win the league on Saturday it will be a giant f**k you to the many so called fans who cannae be arsed. As for your 2nd point, I'm not so sure. The home end (west and South) is just under 6000 seats and I sometimes wonder what it would take to fill it for a league match. I believe our only sellout was the July 2009 game with Vaduz, out 1st and only ever European match. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz FFC Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Leahy rarely seems to get a chance. Playing 2nd fiddle to Roberts must've been embarrassing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gav-ffc Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Good to see we have offered new deals to McGrandles, Sibbald and Loy even though they are not out of contract. Leahy im unsure as to why. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshmallo Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Your notion that there is a lack of graft from people at the club is utter bollocks No everyone of course. I remember going to one of the FSS fan meetings (the one with Pressley). The boy who told us all that the main email address never got read started off with a story about how difficult a day he'd had on the day we loaned Jordan White to Stirling. It basically involved him driving to Glasgow and being quite busy from 9-5. Good to see we have offered new deals to McGrandles, Sibbald and Loy even though they are not out of contract. Leahy im unsure as to why. Yeah agreed, good initiative to go after these guys when they've got time left. I'd have thought we'd be waiting till we knew what league we were going to be in before we tried to keep all these guys. Obviously some like McGovern should be kept no matter what. Dave McCracken I love and think has been absolutely phenomenal this year, but could he step up to the top flight? I'm not so sure. Duffie hopefully is just being offered a deal as a means of guaranteeing compensation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have thought that could be too late? If we go up through the playoffs it'd be the 25th of May before we know what league we'd be in next season. By that time other clubs could have come in for some of the guys worth keeping. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
