Peterhead V Aberdeen (3 - 2)


Recommended Posts


12 quid for a friendly in Peterheid. Jesus fuck.

 

This :laughing:

 

Absolute daylight robbery. Standard SPL games should be £12, let alone friendlies up in Peterhead.

 

Just hope we get through the final pre-season games injury free with some more goals to boost confidence.

 

3-0 the Dandies.

Its a friendly........

 

£12 to watch a training session.....

 

I sincerely hope the players and manager take it a bit more seriously than a training session, seeing as we only have two games left before the season kicks off. Players should be making a stake for starting positions.

Friendly and Peterheid in the same sentence. Jesus fuck.

Hemmin, I'm fae Peterheid and a friendlier cunt you couldna meet so wrap the fuck up! ;)

 

Joking aside, the hospitality packages at Balmoor are excellent and worth paying the extra for if they're doing them tonight. Harry Fraser does the catering and it's really good. They couldn't give me enough drink the last time I went. I was very well looked after. :hypno::cheers:

 

Unfortunately can't make it tonight, the one night all summer that I have something else on.

This isn't the time or the place for BBQ puns.

 

And £12 for a friendly is taking this piss. I would have considered going if it was a fiver or something like that.

 

I'm not gonna lie, getting soaked going for my lunch today has really put a dampener on my plan to possibly attend tonight.

 

I may save all my excitement for Friday night.

Are you going TWL?

 

I was planning to, but the wife put the shackles on that as it's our anniversary. She may love me, but she certainly don't love the Dons.

Yes (don't get me wrong) I do agree that Scottish football as a whole is over priced & a blanket decrease should be brought in BUT as prices are right now. £12 for a friendly is ok when one side is from the top tier.

 

£12 for a third div game would be quite normal, so the third division fans are getting to watch THEIR team competing at a higher level in preparation for their opening game (in just over a week) in the league cup.

 

HL games are not far off that.

 

Speaking about league cup though. How come Partick Thistle (being top flight now) still have to play in the first round. One round before all others in top league except those in Europe begin?

Friendly matches are about as generating money off mugs as they are about fitness (or anything else for that matter), see also Wembley in August.

Friendlies whilst being about fitness, are also about favours to the lesser sides & for testimonials etc.

 

£12 is the normal price for a peterheid game, so just over a week before their first competitive game of season & against a side which is three divisions above them. £12 is pretty much normal & fair for them to ask that of their fans.

Good money spinner for them & fine-n-handy (see what I did there?) for us because it's close & will be a decent tempo.

The sick thing is I'm still going

 

So starved of live fitba :(

 

I've been watching the Dazzler light up the USL during the break.

He hasn't scored yet, but sooner or later, just by the law of averages, he has to get a goal.
