It looks like the Merkland, Main, RDS Lower and South home section will sell out so it's gonna be a cracking atmosphere. Probably fall short of selling out RDS upper and away section.

I think there is rows at the back of the rds not up for sale yet.

that won't be the whole difference so must be seats elsewhere too

to be fair to yourself those numbers were from early yesterday so obviously a fair number of tickets sold throughout the day

They've fucked up either the date or the day as Monday was the 9th, this is the 10th ?

[StandFree1982]

Ojo definitely out for the game on Thursday?

No word on injuries to Kennedy (allegedly has a back problem), Devlin (not so much allegedly but just so injured we are embarrassed to announce his signature), Ferguson (was he even injured), Hayes (went off injured) and Ojo (pulled out in the warm up).

Couldn't find the huns info, but here are the ticket prices for the other Scottish teams home European matches for this round:

Hibs v Rijeka
Adult: £23
Senior/Student/Youth: £14
Child: £11

Celtic v Jablonec
Adult: £19
Under 16/65+: £12
Under 13: £10

St Johnstone v Galatasary
Season Ticket Holder: Free
Adult: £25
Concession: £15

 

For whatever reason ours are the highest by some distance.  I actually think we've done pretty well to sell 11k so far given the high cost, but if it doesn't sell  out I hope they reconsider for future rounds.

I agree I think the prices are very steep but I dont know anyone who is not going because of the price. Folk are either going regardless or their not going regardless.

The high prices can shore up the missing tickets from Hacken H and United H and get us on an even keel for the season

There will be some people who would have considered it who wont go because of the price. I would have been hopeful we would have had a glut of sales with it being the first game at full capacity - but maybe us Aberdonians just are right miserable bastards.

Maybe if it was a tenner instead but folk really deciding whether its £25 or £30?

[Betty Swallicks]

So the club have fucked up either the day or date and there is either 3k left or 7k left. 

Amateurs!!!!!! (Love Ian Brown).

I think it would be more on point of principle.

If they are a couple of K short of capacity then they will clearly have mad a cunt of it.

Not that I'd give a fuck personally, but those prices are taking the piss.

Clearly trying to take advantage of the circumstances. Arseholes.

Especially as it's not exactly a glamour game.

It's a game against some Icelandic team most have never heard of and we won the away game.

The opposition doesn't make a difference for this game. It's the first proper game back.

I think you are over estimating the occasion to fans who only go to bigger games.

[REDRODDIE]

Pittodrie is going to be pulsating. 4-0 the dons by HT against these volcano cunts. 6-0 full time. Happy days.

It's a competitive game.

It's an evening game.

The pubs are back to normal (sort of).

 

What's not to like. 

The club have worked out all the numbers. It's better to ride the cash cow (hardcore home fans) than attract a 1-2 game per season fan.

A handful of fans will save themselves for playoff round because they are a 1-2 game person not because it's £30

[Betty Swallicks]

How many folk will be out off paying an extra fiver?

How many folk would a fiver less attract?

 

Its first game for yonks that we can all get into. Its a European game so something different. Its likely to be a fine enough night weather wise. The pubs are open to get a pint or two. Bring it on! COYR! 

[aberdeen1970]

Can see both sides of this one but it seems slightly overpriced, especially when you compare it with the other clubs' pricing. 

£25 feels like the right price point.

This needs to be pinned up in the changing room. Not as bad as the comments about how Aberdeen didn't go there to play football after the first leg. Hope we absolutely steamroll them now.

Pretty much what you'd expect any manager to say

Maybe unpopular but imo we were outplayed first 45. 

Breidabilk are a decent football side, quite technical. 

Second half we nullified them mostly but they are dangerous opposition. The positive is they make mistakes, which means it's likely we will score but we need to dominate the ball more this week. 

I suspect we will go

mccrorie Gallagher Considine 

Ramsay brown ferguson hayes

That's them just touched down.
