sheepiekev Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 Know what you mean...looking at the pricing for the tickets I think the penny has finally dropped that AFC can no longer take the fans for granted...Broon is drinking in the last chance saloon and is looking down the barrel of abject failure in his last appointment...I'm hoping that something kicks in and he finally gets his act together... So you think CB will change his approach at the age of 71?!You actually think he'll attack teams and motivate the players to go for the opposition in an aggressive way from minute 1 of games?!....It's not as if he has the incentive of working for a new long term contract - it's up in the summer and surely he'll retire at the end of next season?

ollie1903 Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 Failed joke, about your son advertising U12 tickets whilst being an U14....sure I read he'd been promoted.Ah, gotcha :thumbs: He's had a couple of games for the 13's, his team is the 12's, but is young enough to play for the 11's. Clear as the nose on yer face! The under 12's for free is a cracking deal and should be a staple of all future ST campaigns. I'm very much in the "wait and see the sanction" boat that most will find themselves in though. Link to comment

MightyDons Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 Football in this country is massively overpriced.Compare it to the prices of the far superior Bundesliga for example.Laughable. Factor in the dire entertainment offered by the current Aberdeen team (mainly due to the managers approach to be fair to the players) and I can't see me bothering with one this year. Depends on the signings made. As someone has said, if we're signing "stellar" players like Chris Clark, then they can fuck clean off!! As I have stated in a previous thread a few weeks back, outwith the "fanzone" areas (usually safe standing areas of max 5000 tickets) which are Link to comment

Understand what you are saying & agree with it also but if we really are serious about going after a more exciting & attacking type players like Jonny Hayes then maybe just maybe Broon can actually accommodate this type of player in his game plans (& allow them to play the way they should be played) & when I say serious I mean actually putting in real offers that he has to consider & not just BS offers that Hayes has no intention of even considering, so our management can say "we tried" but (as we wouldn't find out) we didn't "really" try to sign him.

RUL Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 I'm on the online ticket shop, I've chosen my seat and going to get one for my son, how the feck do you get the U12 ticket for free from it? Can't make any sense of it. Link to comment
The Highland Don Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 I don't think the Hun will be demoted...perhaps if the other SPL clubs came up with something slightly more realistic...along the lines of a 25 point deduction penalty for next season reducing by 5 points a year over the next 5 years...we would get some satisfaction and the Hun would get some just desserts If they were hurt badly with points deductions and heavily sanctioned, plus if we signed some good players then I'd be tempted. Gutted there's no late night train back home to Wick though, I'd be stuck in Aberdeen or Inverness. Link to comment

Well if his views that we are improving are anything to go by, then I can only guess it has something to do with him wearing the old 3d cinema glasses at games cos he's grabbed them by mistake on his way out the door instead of his own ones, so accepting a lift from him may not be such a wise decision Link to comment

Tord31 Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 Starting to see less and less incentive to buy a season ticket. Would have been nice to see a free league cup match or pre-season friendly thrown in. Link to comment
tommo1903 Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 Do they still do the direct debit thing? First year of not being a student so I'll have to pay the full whack. Actually, my card runs out in September....might get away with it after all! Link to comment

muttonhumper Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 Broon: "I stand accountable," said Brown, who was launching a new season-ticket scheme in a bid to win boost crowds. "We must get bums on seats here and not by talking. We'll do our very best to bring them back with positive results. "I hope it is not going to be a hard sell for season tickets despite our disappointing season. The fair-minded fans see there are players who will brighten the team. "Remember, we have been hit hard by injuries this season. Without our injury problems we would have been in the top half of the league. "We never had a consistency of selection because of injuries. "The fans should buy season tickets because they are Aberdeen supporters, and we will do our very best to provide a good brand of football to encourage them to come back with an all-round improvement." Brown has told fans to expect an array of new arrivals in the summer. "We need new signings and have three or four in mind and while I'm not confident I'll get the players I want, I am optimistic," he said. Lost it. Link to comment
