Perth - Can We Rock The Joint?

[Billy Campbell's Ghost]

Pay at gate - just up the road...time to show the team we care and we wish them to succeed.

[Mr Gandosaur]

Sorry but can't see anything but the lowest Dundee crowd in Perth for years here. 

Sunday 12pm, TV, Unable to score goals and winless in 8, £23 entry etc etc...

I would expect a similar crowd to Hearts, about 750. 

We really need the fans to get behind the team, no point in bickering. 

That said, after asking boys to pay a lot of money and an 8 hour round trip to watch a comedy 4 1 2 1 1 1 formation at Inverness, it's amazing we took more than 200 to Hearts.

4 hours each way to Inverness and back? Were you on horse and cart? 

In all seriousness our support on Saturday was excellent in terms of numbers and noise.

Including game time and journey from Edinburgh. It was over 8 hours!

Good numbers at Tynecastle, very little noise thought. Quietest I've heard us through there.

Said to my mate that the whole crowd was subdued. Hearts fans expected to turn us over I think and we were all dreading it! 

Always love an Albert Kidd though

Coming up for a time of year where I need to start looking for savings. 23 quid, on the TV, Sunday lunch time makes it an easy decision to miss unfortunately. Usually do go through to Perth but to be honest it's one of my least favourite away grounds.

Maybe you should get a third horse that isn't lame

I can't see many travelling for this game, esp that it is on TV and at mid-day. Plus, we never do well with 12pm kick off's.

I'm in Dundee for the weekend and was hoping to go to this game as I haven't been since I was a Student 20 years ago.

I had a look on line and it appears there are no trains to Perth what would be the best way to get to McDairmid Park?

A quick look on the National Rail Journey Planner suggests you can either go really early (0845) or get the 1100 getting you in for 1130, if you book a taxi from the station in advance it should be able to get you to McDiarmid Park in time. 

Saying that, you might be able to cadge a lift off a supporters bus giving you a bit more leeway.

Taking the missus to her first competitive dundee game. Hopefully she is a good omen.
