Old Wing Stand Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 I don't think letting a newco huns into the SPL will affect our crowds in anyway, IF we get off to a good start in the league, fans will always come out and watch a winning team.A lot of these guys saying they wont go back are rarely through the gates of Pittodrie anyway.

I dont get how you could do that Link to comment

How can you draw that conclusion other than the fact that most have given up already? Bury your head in the sand all you want but it will be an absolute disaster for Scottish Football and Aberdeen FC if Newco Huns are allowed straight back in. Attendances will plummet to new lows. Let's try and make the club see sense and ensure that it doesn't happen. What was the email address again? Link to comment
King Street Loon Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Aberdeen need to think carefully about how they vote. They could potentially play in an empty new stadium. Link to comment

You can't even see who's voted. Yes there are naive people that are diehards, but a lot of us are taking a great deal of interest in this case and will not return if their punishment is deemed too small. Link to comment

I'm not saying it right that a newco get straight back into the SPL in fact it would be completely wrong, just that if we have a decent team people will still go and support them.We and all the other teams in the SPL signed up to a TV deal that gives the OF the lions share of the money but there are still a diehard few that go every week and imo will continue to go along regardless.

Henry Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Right then. I want to send the results of this poll into the club. Who do I email them to? Dons Supporters Trust along with Dave Macdermid? Link to comment

It used to be that the diehard 'core' was 10K, What is it down to now? 7k? This will only get worse if a newco are allowed in. TV money is fuck all compared to what will be, and is already being, lost at the gate. Link to comment

We will just have to wait and see what happens I'm sure a few will vote with their feet but a lot are keyboard warriors who as I've said will go IF the team gets off to a flyer Link to comment
Bobby Connor Posted April 13, 2012 Author Share Posted April 13, 2012 Think you are massively under-estimating the depth of feeling. By the time we 'wait and see' it will be too late! Link to comment

I know feelings are running high but in the end how many in the end will actually stop going ? I remember the JMG protest feelings were running high but only a dozen or so turned up ! Link to comment

But I'm happy to vote otherwise online. Its only the internet after all. And you need to go with the flow. Its not like anyone will take it too seriously. Link to comment
fatshaft Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 If the newco get voted into the SPL before the Scottish Cup Final (if we get there) will everyone still be going ?This season is as it is imo and remains to be played out, we've come this far. Of course it would be physically impossible for the Hun to liquidate and reform, then re-apply to the SPL and get voted in in the next 5 weeks, so your ridiculous question is irrelevant. If they are liquidated in time for 2012/13, and subsequently get voted back into the SPL, I will simply not bother ever again with Scottish football. Link to comment

Are you just a meek little boy who does what the big boys say? Christ almighty.It appears, yet again, your half brain cell hadn't kicked into gear. If you understood my point, it was that I wasn't agreeing with the vote on here and was demonstrating independent thought (I wont bother explaining it, you wouldn't understand). If you don't understand what people are talking about don't comment on it. You really do come across like a silly, silly little man. Link to comment
