If they had no intention of sticking to handing them out in order of season ticket purchase date why not just wait for councils decision on capacity? I've waited just short of 2 hours (and probably about another hour) to get a ticket for a game I've technically already got a ticket for You've got to appreciate there's no easy answer but there's no danger the club haven't made an arse of it.

Netan Sansara Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 That’s the increased capacity through. Doesn’t say what number, but confident that all season ticket holders who wish to will be able to attend. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spikethedee Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 I seem to remember the season where we gave the Bigot Brothers the Derry, our season ticket had an alternative seat for the Main Stand on it for those matches. Not sure why they couldn't have done that - whatever the capacity for the BC stand is, the first X season ticket holders get one of those seats allocated to them if it's needed, the next X get an allocated seat in the Shankly etc. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludo*1 Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 So is there a point in going down today? f**k waiting 2 hours for a ticket I already have. Ivano Bonetti in that BBC article saying that we could have had Esteban Cambiasso for £1m, Diego Forlan for £1.5m and a 16 year old Maxi Lopez on a free but was told no by our board. Also says we slapped a £7m price tag on Caballero. Celtic were sniffing about and willing to offer about £3m. As usual with Bonetti, a lot of pinches of salt need to be taken but imagine we had Cambiasso strutting his stuff at Dens. Oft. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
locheedee Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Interview with Bonetti on the BBC website about his time with Dundee. Some mental names mentioned that he tried to sign - Cambiasso, Forlan and Maxi Lopez & supposedly Celtic wanted Cab but would only pay 3m when we wanted 7m... https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/57515640 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ludo*1 Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Whoever is in charge of communication and posting on the official is absolutely rancid at their job. Basic information to give people here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there's a way of making an arse of it, we'll find it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpiderDee Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Think I will just avoid score all day and watch the full coverage on Alba at 6pm. Shambles! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludo*1 Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Just drove past Dens. Queue is the biggest I've seen it. Just going to chance it on Thursday after work and hope there'll be tickets left and a lot less busy. Absolute shambles considering I technically already have my ticket. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mev Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 (edited) 3 hours ago, Mr. Alli said: Out of towers guaranteed a ticket if they email in. Fucks that ah aboot. I think it's about season ticket holders who live hundreds of miles from Dens and can't drive or walk to Dens to stand in a queue. I for one am fed up of folk who live in and around Dundee getting preferential treatment just because they can make it to the ticket shop more easily. I'm not a season ticket holder any more but can understand out of towners complaining about the way this was set up. I stopped purchasing a season ticket because of it and I would imagine others have been contacting the club threatening to do the same.

RossBFaeDundee Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Well now that there are more seats avaliable than ST holders, I suddenly don't feel so pressured to get in that massive line today. Saw the pictures from Cran, went down the length of the Cox, wrapped around all the way up the wall and around, down the Provie road. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stu2910 Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Anyone confirm what’s happening with streaming league games for Season ticket holders? I’m assuming it’s continuing like last season but don’t think the club have said anything about it.Waiting for clarification but think I’m going to have to isolate until next week so can’t make the game now. Thankfully hadn’t been up today yet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm certain it'll definitely be continuing, especially with no away fans allowed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dundee announcement said that they would get the same level of occupation in the Shankly as they will in the Cox, which is around 2,000. Roughly 4,000 space for 3,000 ST holders going by that logic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RossBFaeDundee Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 24,500 Celtic fans allowed against us the following week, no away fans. Not that I'd be wasting my time going to that game tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
