blythswood Posted 30 August 2015 Report Share Posted 30 August 2015 I didn't expect it to be quite so low, thought we wud scrape 5k. I think it reflects just how bad a result it was on Tuesday. Especially after Hartley had made a big deal about the Cups this season. Poor crowd though, no doubt about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
123dfc Posted 30 August 2015 Report Share Posted 30 August 2015 7 games in August mind, could be a lot to do with it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobra Posted 30 August 2015 Report Share Posted 30 August 2015 I think it reflects just how bad a result it was on Tuesday. Especially after Hartley had made a big deal about the Cups this season. That was a mistake and it probably made the defeat harder to take for the fans. You can't just announce that you've decided to take the cups seriously and that's you off to Hampden. If anything big talk in the media probably damages your chances because the opposition get an extra incentive to get a result. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deefiant Posted 31 August 2015 Report Share Posted 31 August 2015 It reflects the increase in prices for me to be honest. We've not announced our ST sales - we usually do. Why? I guarantee they are lower than last season - possibly sub 4k. Pensioners will be annoyed, students will be annoyed and a 100% increase in the kids tickets was a bit of a boot in the stones. Couple this with last seasons poor home form and hard choices need to be made. If it wasn't for financial support from my old man I couldn't have afforded to retain my 4 season tickets this year. Slightly off topic but is there an option to pay up a ST? I know my DAB mate does that over the road (although he missed the first home game of the season due to the credit lender ballsing up ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PH played down the importance of the last derby, following the Hearts game and got absolutely slated for it on here. Seems like he cant win.

Isn't advertised well enough for me though, and you not knowing it existed has proved that theory! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tayportdee Posted 31 August 2015 Report Share Posted 31 August 2015 I thought that maybe 8 years or so ago, I'd look at the crowd and 'guess' how many, me and Mrs Root had it as a sort of competition. From one season to the next we seemed to be constantly over calling it, even when it looked the same as the year before. Now, I've got no idea any more. could you enlighten the forum members on other fun guessing games that you and mrs root partake in, please ?

Seems like he cant win. I don't agree with playing down derbies. They are hugely important. I also think it's unwise to be talking about cup runs when you should be focusing solely on the game. Dunfermline may well have taken his comments to mean he was looking beyond our tie towards the quarters and semis before we'd beaten them. Wouldn't say he can't win. He's excellent in his interviews. Usually I think he's spot on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
islaydarkblue Posted 31 August 2015 Report Share Posted 31 August 2015 There were 6,006 Dundee supporters at the Hearts game and assuming there were 100 ICT fans at last Saturday's game 4,667 home fans. Where have the 1,339 Dundee supporters gone since the Hearts game. I realise that some may have been at the Hearts game because it was the first home game of the season but it was also all-ticket which often deters people from attending. I have managed to attend the Hearts, St Johnstone and ICT home games but my next home game will probably be on 7th November. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chomp my root Posted 1 September 2015 Report Share Posted 1 September 2015 could you enlighten the forum members on other fun guessing games that you and mrs root partake in, please ? We used to play a game called 'guess which hole', not so much these days. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
