ToadKiller Dog Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 The sheep often take around 3,000 to 4,000 to tannadump as thats sort of a derby, cant think where else they have taken more.

Doc Rob Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 Looking at some of the Pittodrie attendances last season, Aberdeen must be unique then in having a larger away support than home It's not actually impossible. There are a lot of 30something Aberdeen fans in the central belt who attached themselves to the sheep in the 1980s when they were winning titles.

rossthejambo Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 I was under the impression that Aberdeen referred to us as their biggest rivals, yet they seem to struggle on a yearly basis to sell out the roseburn stand (or even 2 sections for that matter) Me thinks he's pandering to that crowd from up the road. Don't really blame him. A bit more tact required perhaps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spellczech Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 That old chestnut - lots of Aberdeen fans are leftovers from the early 80s and live in the central belt. Their problem is more about getting fans to go to home games and actually funding the club they "support"... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New Dawn Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 Worth remembering our support at the 1986 cup final and 1996 semi finals at Hampden too. We had over double the support of theirs in 86 and more than treble their support in 96. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The People's Chimp Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 It's not actually impossible. There are a lot of 30something Aberdeen fans in the central belt who attached themselves to the sheep in the 1980s when they were winning titles. Having said that, I don't believe the 5k figure for a second. A lot in their mid to late 20s as well. I know about 10 zoophiles in Edinburgh alone. Some are Aberdeen ex pats and some are gloryhunters who, despite their bullish assertions to the contrary, must spend every waking hour rueing their ill informed choices as young and easily influenced children.

stirlo Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 While on the subject of Paul Hartley. Graham Spiers in this morning's Times writes: "Paul Hartley has never been a world-beater, but he has got better and wiser with age. McGhee should get two good seasons out of him, before Hartley goes home to Heart of Midlothian at the age of 35". Can someone explain what he is on about?

Le Chat Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 Well if they get a full stand how much does the School end hold? And have they ever filled it? When we played them in the cup a few years back they got the whole of the Roseburn. They about 2/3rd's filled it meaning they had about 2,400 there. Their forums were filled with shite saying they had 5,000 there. The Roseburn only holds 3,600. Absolute throbbers who almost give the Hobos a run for their money in the slavering stakes.

heartsfc_fan Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 Ach, it's a footballer doing the usual "these fans are the best etc etc" "this is the only club I wanted to play for..." The man is still a legend in my eyes, but if he is meaning what he said then he clearly has a short memory...a certain team that he played for a few years ago took 5,000 to Dundee Utd, Livingston, Dunfermline and 40,000 to Hampden for the big cup final.
