Kiwidoug Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 I know we always say the next game is vital but a defeat against Airdrie would be catastrophic imo and a draw almost as bad. We must win and win well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tenaciousdandy Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Off that weekend, so might take the wee one along if still plenty tickets left on Friday, £19 for 2 tickets in the main stand is decent, first and last game she was at was the st Mirren game, so might even be a lucky supporter lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJGJ Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Give it a couple of days then time to bang the drum Worst case scenario is we will have almost all our injured players back for this one and that in itself is great news If we have a signing or two then all the better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The team and bench will be really interesting too and I would bet heavily that Stendel and his staff will have them jumping out of their skins to get on the park. I'm sure it would be a huge encouragement to the staff and players if around 15,000 turned out but I acknowledge that history is against this.

Kiwidoug Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 I expect to hear that these tickets are flying out the door over the next few days. This really is the start of the new dawn after the nightmare and I would love to think they will get a rousing reception from a big crowd. If it's accurate that least 1,400 are coming from Airdrie, surely we can make the effort. It will not be a Levein performance. We can be certain of that.

The Treasurer Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 The 1400 figure may be accurate given the fact that prick Murray is the Airdrie manager so there could be a few "Airdrie" fans coming from Leith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gashauskis9 Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 (edited) On 06/01/2020 at 15:39, been here before said: Theres been a few times recently theyve done Family Kids Club thing. Sounds not bad and my wee man would pribably love it but they always announce it too late, after the tickets have been on sale. We've already got good seats for us both in the centre of the Wheatfield so we'd be essentially be paying another 15 sheets for 2 crappy seats in the Gorgie stand that we'd never use. The family package is crap, doesn’t make any sense. The tickets for the game are £12 for adults and £3 for U13s. The family package is £30/£20. Given that the family package is most appealing to kids under 13, it’s essentially costing the kids £17 to get their face painted, get a wee bowl of spag bol and have some diluted juice. Very poor value imo, should have been £20/£10 for the package as mentioned earlier on the thread. Also feel that it devalues the match ticket as well having such a big pricing discrepancy.
