daytripping Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Kinda plays on the living in the past myth, don't like it all. Good to see the youth initiative though. Link to comment
Byrne Baby Byrne Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 These pish slogans for the new seasons are getting beyond the joke Link to comment
NorthernLights24 Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 A good slogan would be 'Meh'. Link to comment
Foster14 Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Terrible slogan. Believe in the Future would be bad enough, without the first part. I also see that you have until 2 weeks from the end of the season to guarantee your season ticket seat for next season, a whole 9 weeks before the season starts. I am pretty sure the early bird will end up being extended, but that does seem ridiculously early this year. Link to comment
looksgoodinred Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 i checked but see no sign of being able to donate tickets this season. does anyone know if they'll have that again? Link to comment
tightbreeks Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 sounds like the lyrics to an anthrax song maybe "I am the law" Link to comment
dave_min Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 i checked but see no sign of being able to donate tickets this season. does anyone know if they'll have that again? If you paypal me £314 (+ fees), i'll head down to the ticket office and buy me a season ticket for you if you like? Link to comment
scoutman70 Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 i checked but see no sign of being able to donate tickets this season. does anyone know if they'll have that again? You can easily donate a Concession ticket for the South Stand to me Link to comment
jassb Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Would be nice if they announced a certain number of free tickets each week for schools and clubs. Anyone know if they do that? Link to comment
The Boofon Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 I was going to buy a season ticket but that slogan has put me off. We're red, you're dead, we're bouncing on your head. That would get me buying. Show some balls AFC. Link to comment
stirlingsheep Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Would be nice if they announced a certain number of free tickets each week for schools and clubs. Anyone know if they do that?Jesus. That would be engaging the youth of the city and interesting future generations in seeing the club. Both positive and forward thinking. Reported Link to comment
Foster14 Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Jesus. That would be engaging the youth of the city and interesting future generations in seeing the club. Both positive and forward thinking. Reported Or based on recent form, putting them off forever... Link to comment
Kilkito Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 The idea of forking out that kind of money in a few weeks to guarantee my seat to watch pish doesn't have me to excited, but I'm sure I will in anycase. Actually, anyone got a ST in the Main Stand? My ST is the end seat by the fence in the SS, and I really only have it there for some gesturing action when the huns are in town, but thats not going to happen for another couple of years(and I'm getting a bit old for all that, although a man should never tire of letting the huns know what he thinks of them), and the toilets and the queues for the catering are terrible, anyone recommend the Main? I've been in a couple of times, but not in the last few years, and you feel really close to the action, but of course, you can hear a pin drop. Link to comment
Karl Fletcher Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 The Main yi say? Great view, but that's about it. Expensive and by and large surrounded by precious, middle aged men who gasp at the slightest swear word. Link to comment
Byrne Baby Byrne Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 The Main yi say? Great view, but that's about it. Expensive and by and large surrounded by precious, middle aged men who gasp at the slightest swear word. I sat in the main for a couple of seasons, near the tunnel, and was surrounded by old mannies constantly shouting "BASTARDS!". It was ace. Not a fan of the view though, you are either too close to the pitch or have a massive pillar in front of you. Link to comment
tommo1903 Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 I won't be renewing, can't be arsed. Link to comment
fifesheep Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 I was going to buy a season ticket but that slogan has put me off. We're red, you're dead, we're bouncing on your head. That would get me buying. Show some balls AFC.Seriously !!!! . I am going to renew mine and the young lads, and have to admit that the product on offer from Aberdeen is pretty sh1te a lot of the time and the fact that I work every Saturday till 12.30 making getting up the road quite tight , this makes me think sometimes I might just give it a miss , but hey ho I still find myself renewing .. I just cant imagine ( and I totally agree about how bad the slogan is ) thinking of not buying a season ticket because of a sh1t sentence . Although I suppose you could start a topic on " What slogan would put me off buying a season ticket !! " . For a start -- Buy a season ticket and we will donate 10% to save the Hearts fund ;-) Link to comment
Westhill Red Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Terrible slogan with connotations the fans are living in the past and need to move on... However this wont stop me renewing, what else is there to do on a Saturday in Aberdeen? Link to comment
sheepiekev Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 I don't see the point in folk moaning about a slogan FFS. It doesn't affect whether you renew or not. Just put the slogan down to the inevitable marketing spin....whether you like it or not is not relevant to whether you go to Pittodrie or not. Moaning for moaning sake. Link to comment
Ke1t Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Slogans are great, and all, but what I want to know is will Milne be backing McInnes financially? This team needs yet another complete overhaul, and doing it on the cheap will see us go nowhere. Link to comment
Redstar Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 The only slogan that would make me renew would be "Clangers binned , Rae released and Hughes paid off"....that said the young loon will give me a majorly hard time if I don't...if nothing else the banter and shouting abuse at the hopeless wretches will see me £300 light by August.

This team needs yet another complete overhaul, and doing it on the cheap will see us go nowhere.I think the budget is the same as last year.What leaves the club in wages can be used to bring in new players.With the right recruitment and management, we SHOULD be top 4 at worst.

jassb Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 I'm with Westhills Red on this one. Nothing better to do on a Saturday. Enjoy the lunchtime pints and the walk to pittodrie better than the game sometime, but they're my team and they'll get my cash. Hope for good sales, some good new names, some of the youngsters breaking through, some old names gone and forgotten, and some optimism for the new season. Link to comment

ollie1903 Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 I take it the price for the 12-17 year olds is the same as a concession? Link to comment
Liam Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Really dont think there is anything we wont moan at. Link to comment
The Boofon Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Terrible slogan with connotations the fans are living in the past and need to move on... However this wont stop me renewing, what else is there to do on a Saturday in Aberdeen?They've done up Ramboland and renamed it Smuggler's Cove. Link to comment
Henry Posted May 6, 2013 Author Share Posted May 6, 2013 Terrible slogan with connotations the fans are living in the past and need to move on...
