gillsjambo29 Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 if i'm being perfecly honest i could have got the car tonite and went to the game, possibly with others but chose to watch it in the pub with a pint or to. just want to say. fair play to the people that went and that i could hear the rendition of the hearts song at kick off and you were a credit throughout the game cheering on the boys. not an atempt at a better fan than you post but rather a thank you for the fans that the players could not give on a forum such as this.

PTBCAL Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 Disappointed that only around 400 could make the effort to cheer on the team.

loveofthegame Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 Drove 2 of us through, worth every penny! Not a huge support but fair play to all other Jambos who travelled through for this rescheduled match 11 days before Christmas that was being shown on Sky. The result that we all deserved!

My personal view is that I've been to these matches before, the ones that COULD / SHOULD cement a good run, and all to often we've simply never turned up or else the ref has gone and done us over. Fair play to people who go whether we're in form or not though............but isn't that a bit like traipsing along to a chic flick when you know fine well the burds got the painters in and you'll be 'getting' zilch when you get home :santa1: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bungalow Bill Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 Was a poor turn out considering the run we are on. We are now 3 pts behind Celtic and we're almost at Christmas!!!

joe.gausden Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 Wasn't a great turn out but you'd think Motherwell could you have dropped the prices a bit to encourage the fans to come. Even their own support was feckin' horrendous. Chick Dung reckoned on the radio after the game that there were 200 more at the Dundee v Cowdenbeath game last night.

mahgrassyshoes Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 only 400 Really ? looked more from where i was sitting and many other boards reporting more I thought it was a bit closer to 700. And I guessed the attendance was 3100 so the 700 estimate it's as good a right Thought it was a pretty poor turn out considering the run (as others have mentioned) but the boys that did show up made some decent noise.

Definitely a stewarding issue. No people in lower tier = no chance of people running onto the pitch = less money paid out on unnecessary stewards.

JP1874 Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 Good on the 400+ (or how ever many there was you). Couldn't make it lastnight as was working, had to listen to it on the radio.

No people in lower tier = no chance of people running onto the pitch = less money paid out on unnecessary stewards. I see Motherwell's point, but it looked pretty shit on TV TBH. I was there last night and I resent being put in the upper stand. You are so far away from the game it was hard to see what happened at the Temps goal, the PA system was just a mumble and I had to ask my neighbour who was checking his phone to see who had scored. Poor treatment of away fans will come back to bite them. Look at Tannadice for instance. We used to get the area behind the goals as well as the "fair play" stand. Now we get packed into the fair play stand while a tiny number of United fans roam the wide open spaces. I go to a fair number of away games but I get mighty pissed off at the off hand treatment and it makes me pick and choose a lot more for away games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamboJen Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 How pointless was the "catering", if you can even call it that. Apparently no steak pies left ten minutes before half time.

portobellojambo1 Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 only 400 Really ? looked more from where i was sitting and many other boards reporting more I think 400 is a reasonably close estimate. Only the top tier was open and it was very sparsely populated. Even taking into account the time of year I thought maybe a few more would have made an effort to get along. It would have been different if we were in the middle of a horrific spell of results and sitting near the wrong end of the table, but given how we have been playing of late and the relevant importance of last night's fixture I thought more would have pulled out the stops to get there.

Heartbeat Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 t I'm with you Macc, wasn't a big support but I was to the left of the goals and looking over looked slightly more than 400. Would have posted earlier but just thawed out must admit although not great thought there was more, however the weather and it being on TV made a massive impact. Dont underestimate what it does for the team you could see that at the end the appreciation. Me well I did the biggest ****** up in my Hearts supporting career. I was in Tenerife and due to come home last Thursday before the Dons game. Having not missed a game apart from Celtic away I was gonna miss Rangers away but it was postponed. I decided to stay in Tenerife as had something to sort out and I then missed the drubbing of the dons. Since then have had all sorts of txs about it being the best display for 90 mins in years and we were awesome. I decided by hook or crook I was going to well and landed at 5 at Edinburgh airport and headed straight to game. Must admit after coming back fom 80 degrees I instantly regretted it and was frozen after missing the worst of it while away. BUT and there is always a but a win anywhere any especially at that $h!t hole puts a wee glow on you and I was glad I made the effort. TV is ruining attendances IMO as its really a no brainer on a cold miserable December evening just coming up to xmas when money is tight so well done the rest that made it PS there tannoy system must be illegal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
