moray1903 Posted June 14 Share Posted June 14 I had a season ticket for 25 years until I had to move to Dunfermline. My daughter is now 11 and wants me to take her to watch the famous. She wants us to get a season ticket. Which part of the ground would be best for her these days. I used to be the Beach End Link to comment
strachanmcgheegoal Posted June 14 Share Posted June 14 Used to take mine to first 3 rows of the Main. At least they can see. 1 Link to comment

JojoJuan Posted June 15 Share Posted June 15 You could take her to a game in each stand before committing to a season ticket and see what she enjoys most. My son prefers the Main Stand as he likes a side view more and then we went in the South Stand he couldn't see for folk standing 1 Link to comment
moray1903 Posted June 15 Author Share Posted June 15 Thanks, yeah I'll try that. Main stand maybe a good option. Link to comment

I used to be the Beach End Under 12s can get a free Season ticket in the RDU. My lad is 11 and didn't have to pay for him. 1 Link to comment

The rdu is fine if you want to see the whole pitch and are interested in the tactical side of things but you do feel a bit detached from the action 1 Link to comment
strachanmcgheegoal Posted June 15 Share Posted June 15 Hated the upper. You can see opposition goals coming a mile off. It’s like it’s in slow motion extending the pain some more. Didnt know that about the U12s thing though. Fair play. Link to comment
Dandys1983 Posted June 15 Share Posted June 15 Main is full of old men and tartan rugs! ( Well that's how I remember it) hated it as a youngster anytime my uncle took me. South never been a fan of it Merkland or Red shed now, shit view but if I was a teenager or early 20s that's where I'd be! Always been a fan of the RDS like the lower ( I've just got a season ticket back there again ) but the top is great for pointing out players movement.....or lack of last season to the kids. I think their free U12 season ticket is a fantastic idea ( I've no u12s now ) and the atmosphere wasn't that bad up their towards the end of the season, I can see what the clubs doing though get them in young make the top deck of the RDS the breeding ground for the next lot of Ultras for the red shed, I think on a few years they might have to looks at other areas for the ultras, just my opinion as I can see it getting bigger and bigger and bigger. I hope alot of family's with U12s take up the offer as it's great seeing so many youngsters following the dons nowadays long gone are the days of the glory hunters at school in the 90s we their Hun tops! 1 Link to comment

Ramandu Posted June 15 Share Posted June 15 RDU is the best view for watching the game imo. There are usually plenty kids there, which can be a pro or a con as you see fit. Only real down side is it can be a bit more sparse for quieter games. 1 Link to comment

Betty Swallicks Posted June 15 Share Posted June 15 Main is the best stand by a distance. RDU good for kids. Red Shed for bigger kids. South is fucking freezing. Link to comment
Roberto Posted June 15 Share Posted June 15 Tynecastle is better. We are being left behind... Link to comment
RUL Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 I reckon one trip and she’ll be saying I’m not doing that again. Link to comment
