I have to say, having a firestick has actually led to me putting more money directly to the club. I've decided to go to fewer away games this season and the firestick has played a role, but it's led to me renewing my DeeTV sub (despite not thinking it's value for money) and being able to purchase more at the club shop for christmas.

I'm also a ST holder.

Just out of interest, does the club get any money directly from the shop, or is it a case of the guy who runs it has a franchise on it, where he pays Dundee X amount every season….

Just asking, cause I genuinely don’t know.

I know of at least 4 “dees” that you hear from daily, that don’t put a dime into the club.

Thats who my beef is with.

The 4 guys in particular have a very nice income.

So not wrong.

Just don't get the local supporters who don't buy a ticket  if they can afford one, yet watch  home games on IPTV.

Me neither, football is a live entertainment sport, players, manager and owners want as many in the ground as possible.

Streams are great for people who live miles away, genuine out of town fans.

Not so much, for these “dees” that watch on an illegal stream, a stones throw from dens.

There are no halfwits throwing flares at the players on a Firestick

Edit - Had to edit to halfwits from w@nkers - these people are w@nkers, there's no other word for them

imo any home games at this time of year should have a greatly reduced admittance fee...if you dont have a season ticket your highly unlikely to be able to afford a game of football especially if you have a young family.

Semantics. Flare / smoke bomb, near players / not near players one is as bad as the other.

End game is that objects were thrown onto the pitch endangering player safety and that's how the authorities woud describe it.

Did you see Fir park the other night, 100 times worse and more dangerous than anything going on at Ayr, Ibrox too the last few weeks, if authorities aren’t looking at these two clubs, then the odd smoke bomb at Ayr won’t be an issue.

These young boys have been brilliant for our club, they took that support to new levels on Friday night, two days before Xmas on a horrible night 3 hours away.

They are in the main young kids, they aren’t saints, but 99 percent of the time for me they have been so positive for the club, they sometimes get a wee bit overexcited, a 3hour bus journey having a few drinks probably contributed to that.

Happy Christmas to all dees on here

The players are delivering on the park for now and that should maybe drive more through the gate
