Kingswells Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 2 hours ago, Rudolf said: That'll be the usual sheep exaggeration. 1,550 or so for sections L & M and around 450 for K. We're selling H & J so there will need to be segregation in K hence the lower figure for that section. All good though, around £60,000 from the sheep. Only L and M were ever available on our ticket site that I saw. There was a tweet from Aberdeen which stated over 2000 fans would be going to the game but as far as I can see that is only 1500 tickets roughly.

When we gave the Old Firm three sections of the Roseburn, that accounted for 2,100 tickets. If if you’ve only got two sections, then you’re getting around 1,400.

Lord Beni of Gorgie Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Either they have got it wrong or we are not letting on there are no sales in K. I'm not a moaner about the club but really if we have gave them K, they should be letting people so know so they can have a choice of different seat. For weeks people have had that option to wait and they will be expecting it again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they'd announced Aberdeen had been given 3 sections, folk on here would've been moaning about less seats for Hearts fans. As it is, the amount that wait on section K opening is negligible and we still have over 800 to sell (which we probable will taking the crowd to well over 18,000). Job done.

Not if they have already sold them?????? Which is the case if the Tweet is correct. Then waiting for K, which is probably around a couple of hundred at leas each week are going to be proper scunnered. If we have sold those 3 sections I think its best to make people aware.

Fair enough but I don't know where you're getting the couple of hundred that wait for K to open from. There's still over 800 left and I've not read any posts on this thread from punters waiting on K opening. If Aberdeen have sold over 2,000 then there can only be a two seat wide segregation barrier as L & M hold about 1,488 and K minus the two rows nearest J holds 528. Bottom line is it'll be good to have the stadium almost full on Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

innerjambo Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Bit surprised we haven't sold this out yet, and I don't think we will either. What with the seats taken away for segregation, and Aberdeen having sold out their allocation, it's not a great sign considering we're top of the league. I must admit I'm a bit baffled as to why this is the case, but it seems a few fans aren't on board yet with this season. I know there's still 3/4 days to go, so we will see I suppose.

Think the pricing for this one has put people off, including myself. £36 for a ticket in the main or wheatfield stands and £32 behind the goals, is ridiculous for aberdeen. I don't mind paying that for hibs and rangers but Aberdeen hardly the same standard of fixture. I go to Newcastle games now and again and it is £34 to watch man c, Liverpool, arsenal etc for a far better standard of player and football.
