2-0 down within half an hour. Not the best of starts
-
Wouldny feel left out; I never got one either. Unless your on the blacklist alongside me?
I'm surprised they still let you into the stadium, Joe
-
The Steel membership is probably as far as I could push it at the moment. Hoping to do my bit though.
-
A harsh decision by the SFA in my opinion. A one match ban would have been more acceptable.
-
Considering it's a game against one of our rivals for 3rd place I would think it's a decent deal for any fan who can get along.
If I could go I certainly would.
-
Surely we have to appeal this? A two match ban for touching Goodwin on the face? How does that rank alongside an actual punch to the stomach?

How does one Nominate and/or Vote ?
Pretty much what Cakes said. Just remember that whoever you vote for 1st in each category will get 3 points, your second nomination gets 2 points and so on.
You don't have to nominate three folk for each award though.

I know what you're saying Kmcalpin but I don't agree that we 100% need to improve our home form in order to stay in 3rd. I think as long as we are doing what we are doing just now. I think we're averaging about 1.8 points a game (something like that) and whether we win at home or away as long as we stay round about that average we will walk 3rd place. If our home form was better we would be challenging for the title.
So aye let's improve our home form so we can get in to the champions league
Plus last season we were losing these games by the odd goal (St Mirren and Kille at home spring to mind) so every little helps as the say.
I don't think we can maintain our away form throughout the rest of the season though. We've been quite lucky thus far regarding suspensions & injuries, but that'll change at some point. The size of our squad will come into play eventually this season.
I just hope that when it does, we haven't thrown away too many home points against the likes of Kilmarnock & St Mirren.
Saying that, if we beat Hearts on Saturday I should be resting somewhat easier

Can non-supporter association members use the buses? Or do you have to join?

Right, now is the chance to recognise the very best (and worst) that this forum has had to offer over the past 12 months.
Everyone can vote for up to three forum members for each category. Your first place nomination gets 3 points, 2nd place 2 points, and 3rd place 1 point.
After voting closes I'll tally up the totals and we'll see who our winners are. Voting will close at some point on January 1st.

This is only meant as some lighthearted forum banter, so let's try to keep it friendly if possible.

Hopefully no more snow tonight. I'm looking forward to a 3pm kick-off tomorrow.

We're seven points clear of the side in 4th place that we just humped 3-0, and we're eleven points clear of Hearts in 5th with a game in hand. If we're serious about challenging for 3rd this season, we just need to keep doing what we're doing. We don't 'need the 3 points' in the slightest.
I disagree. We need to win games at home against sides like St Mirren if we want to finish 3rd. We may be seven points clear at the moment, but it's only December. We will lose games along the way, and wins against the lower league sides are vital, especially at home.
I would view anything other than a win on Saturday as points lost and a disappointment.
-
If we're serious about challenging for 3rd this season, games against the likes of St Mirren at home are ones we simply have to win.
Be it a great performance and a 3-0 win, or a piss poor showing and a 1-0 win, we need the 3 points.

Bottom line everyone 'should' have had a voucher and should get in no argument.
It's gonna be a huge financial hit anyway
But if every season ticket holder gets in using their book again - they can then give their voucher away for nowt (some might say fair enough) which then inflates again the ammount of free tickets in circulation.
Its catch 22 granted and I'm not saying that the distribution of tickets was perfect - some got none, some got one, some got a couple. And I'm all for folk getting in for nowt or reduced prices. But like I say the club are going to be stung by staging two games with drastically reduced income.
I'm just playing devils advocate saying that entry to game potentially should be - by voucher, PATG, or voucher 9 (because you are a ST holder that didn't make it first time)
The fact that I never got a voucher (later heard that there was one girl handing them out to anyone who asked, and giving multiple vouchers to one person on most occasions) is not my fault though, is it? It was bad organisation by the club, and as such it should be them who sort it out.
I'll be going to the replay with my season ticket, and I'll expect to get in without problem.

A dip in form and a run of bad results was always on the cards, especially considering the size of our squad.
We've been playing less than great yet still getting results. If we can continue doing that until Lasley returns, Hughes hits full fitness and Murphy sorts himself out we'll be doing just fine.
A Europa league spot is still the aim, and we're on course for just that.
-
I couldn't hear the announcement, I just assumed that they would use another voucher for season ticket holders so just left.
Me neither. If I show up for the replay and my season ticket isn't enough to get me into the game there'll be hell to pay.
Unless they reschedule for a pissy Friday night, in which case they can forget it.
-
I'm hoping the weather has improved slightly by Friday night, although I doubt it will have.
A scrappy, unpleasant affair, with us winning 2-1.

Christ, how did he get landed with that gig?

Is that one of those rare instances caught on camera? A steward actually doing his job! He appears to be watching the crowd, keeping an eye on things in case anyone needs help!
I see people standing! Yet he remains in his position!

But you can't draw a comparison when prices are pegged at a tenner and numerous freebies are being handed out. Do the same for a Saturday fixture and I'm sure you'll see a sginificant rise so any comparisons drawn will be void
It'll be interesting to see if the attendances at these Friday night games will be wheeled out without mention of the freebies involved.
Didn't Aberdeen play a Friday night game? Did anything similar happen there regarding ticket pricing and the like?
-
At present they show highlights of all of our games after they've been played. They seem to have the goals from our games before the BBC highlights go up as well, which is quite good.
-
I thought it would be a statue personally but not too fussed at the outcome.
The current memorial is fine in my eyes, but if the club themselves wnated to put up a statue at the front of the O'Donnell stand I doubt there'd be too many complaints.
-
I think if it delivers what the family were looking for you can't really ask for much more.
Well done to all involved.

Centralise tickets sales via the league, centralise shirt sales and league merchandise,cap wages and distribute the wealth more evenly.
An advocate of the Socialist Premier League then?

Of course they wouldn't, and nor should they. Such a plan would have to be well thought-out, and would have to take into consideration the punters who currently reside in the area to be converted.
