Fucking no happy There was a queue of about 20 after I got my tickets, they said there was only row A left in the Shankly and the Cox was full. They were asking folk to group up with other folk in the queue as 1 single ticket takes up 5 seats. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netan Sansara Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 We’ve managed to make a complete arse of this whole thing to the surprise of nobody. I’m going to be pretty pissed off if I miss out on this game, despite the increased capacity and buying a ticket ridiculously early. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I'd actually go with McGowan central as I love the look of McCowan. Mullen up top for me for his work rate with Cumdog coming on to bag the winner. For me: Legzdins Christie Ashcroft Fontaine Marshall McGowan Adam McGhee McMullen Mullen McCowan Thank you. It's not so much that I'd pick Robertson over Anderson, just don't think Anderson can do Byrne's role of screening the defence. Not sure Robertson can either mind you. McGowan is a good shout. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should have just put blocks of 15 seats with green ticks then 2 with red crosses, then 15 green and so on.... and let folk work it out themselves when they get in.

jakedee Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Only row A left in the Shankly, I don't think everyone is getting in boys.Emailed them yesterday to request tickets.Still not had a reply.Will be mega pissed if I miss out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludo*1 Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 I'm trying to cheer myself up with what ifs. Reading the Bonetti article again, imagine we had been given the go ahead just for Cambiasso. Don't even need to bring Maxi Lopez or Diego Forlan to the table. Speroni (Rab if we're specifically going for the 2000 team) Smith - Zurab - Wilkie - Marrocco Carranza - Cambiasso - Nemsadze - Artero Caniggia - Caballero Subs: Roccati (He was pish, but his GK coach for Speroni would be needed) Beghetto De Marchi Rae Bonetti Sara Falconer Manager: Bernd Schuster Chief Scouts: Bonetti Brothers. That team pishes all over that Rangers side that won the league just there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ludo*1 Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 'Club feel they've done the best they could' is rage inducing. Releasing statements saying they confidently expect all ST holders that want a ticket to get in, expecting fans to go in groups of 15, and panicking about out of town fans after they've already started the selling process and releasing a hastily prepared statement to say, 'give us an e-mail and we'll get you sorted' which was published after one of my mates had already started on his 120 mile round trip from Aberdeen to pick up tickets isn't what I'd consider anywhere near decent nevermind the 'best' they could do. As an a side, they've also got a 'red zone' for media in the Main Stand. Is it a requirement for the media to get a certain number of freebies? I'd have thought that ST holders should get priority in circumstances like this if that were at all possible. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossBFaeDundee Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Have to admit I was fucking raging upon being told as I arrived at the club shop that they 'don't know' if there were seats available, and then hearing this news. Absolute shambles from top to bottom. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakedee Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 If I miss out on getting a ticket for this game, after missing out on the previous games, because I can't get into the shop in person to get a ticket. Next season will be the first since 1979 I will not purchase a season ticket.Raging doesn't come close. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dee Bliss Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Fucking marvellous. If you work during shop opening hours and get away from work or live out of time you just get shat on. The club have fucked up here with the Twitter announcement saying all fans with season tickets should get in. Should’ve just fuckin done a ballot 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieDee Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Can't believe the council have said that we can't use South Enclosure. Will be raging if they don't open this area. Should have been part of the initial plan! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wearedarkblue87 Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 I know this is really frustrating for everyone but this is not an easy situation for the club to deal with. I have no problem with supporters being angry that they might not get in to the stadium on Saturday but people need to remember there is a pandemic going on at the moment. The club would never intentionally stop supporters from going to the match on Saturday but clearly mistakes have been made but the council have not made this easy for the club at all with such short notice to let us know if we could open another stand etc. Hopefully things will be back to normal for the next home match. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netan Sansara Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 I understand there’s a pandemic etc., but the reality is that Dundee have made a much bigger arse of this than any club I’ve seen. I’m pissed off from a personal point of view. Last 2 seasons I’ve bought season tickets in the first couple of days of them being out and have so far had 0 tickets. I’m also pissed off from the point of view that plenty of things we do as a club are a shambles. We’re operating in the 20th century. The fact you have to queue multiple times for a ticket etc. is a joke. Why in the 21st century can’t you buy a ticket online and have it on your phone? 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's their naievty, their shocking communication skills and the appalling logic of thinking ST holders will sit in groups of 15 that's pathetic. We all make mistakes, but I don't think other clubs are making quite as big ones as these for their games on Saturday. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
