How many Aberdeen fans actually attended the last match ? I guess that was the first time folks were at the top of that banking.

Just over 800. Everyone is in top that banking which if you was 2 or 3 ahead of you it was difficult to view the match. You also had a bbc cameraman behind the goals so there was a restricted view as well.

Ffs. Disappointed we have agreed to this pricing. Somewhere in the region of £12-15 should be the max to stand in that away end.

You realize that the pricing for these matches is determined as follows:

Until the semifinals, the two slides shall agree upon ticket prices.

If the two sides cannot agree, then the standard fixture admission of the home club shall be charged.

As I doubt Darvel charge £20 per game (looked it up, £8), Falkirk agreed with Darvel to jack the rates up…if Falkirk simply said no, it would have been £8.

 

“28. Minimum Charge for Admission
28.1 All Home Clubs shall ensure that the minimum adult, non-concessionary admission charge for Matches in the Preliminary Round(s) (if applicable), Round One, Round Two and Round Three shall be £5.
28.2 All Home Clubs shall ensure that the minimum adult, non-concessionary admission charge for all other Matches, excluding the Semi-Final Matches and the Final Match, shall be £8 for all.
28.3 Subject to the terms of this Competition Rule 28, the charges for admission for Matches shall be agreed by the Clubs competing in that particular Match. If the competing Clubs are unable to agree, the charges which are normally made for the regular fixtures of the Home Club will apply.
28.4 Except as provided in Rule 28.5, a Club which is the Home Club for a Match is prohibited from charging higher admission prices to accommodation designated for supporters of the Away Club than for broadly comparable accommodation designated for use by supporters of the Home Club at the same Match.
28.5 The prohibition in Rule 28.4 does not apply to any: -
28.5.1 element of discount in the admission price per Match integral in the price of a season ticket or season book for all of the Matches of the relevant Club for the complete season in which ground access is permitted by such season ticket or season book;

28.5.2 concessionary admission prices for the relevant Match charged exclusively to persons who are senior citizens, children and/or disabled and who qualify as such; and
28.5.3 concessionary admission prices for the relevant Match charged to individuals comprised in groups of two or more persons, at least one of whom must be less than sixteen years of age, for admission together to a bona fide family enclosure exclusively used and designated as such for the complete season in which the relevant Match falls.”

Yep, that is why I am disappointed we have agreed to it.

Our board will be well aware this game comes after 4 straight away games and I would have expected them to have had a more reasonable approach to pricing.

You can’t hope that Falkirk make some money from this Cup on one hand and complain that we charge too much on the other. There’s only 900 tickets and they will get snapped up at £20 irrespective of your complaint……

Fair enough, but with £18 for the previous round, this was a given. Now, for a little math…at an average of £17 per ticket versus perhaps £10 if they cheaped it, 3500 x £17 = £59,500 versus £35,000. The difference is roughly £24,500 x .375 = £9,187.50 extra for Falkirk, versus just £13,125 in total the cheap way. Not bad for that tiddly little stadium.

Imagine posting that long, boring reply and you hadn’t even read the post properly.
