Just incase you missed this on a previous thread. I don't care if this is a plea from an AFC-Chat regular, he has the best interests of Aberdeen Football Club at heart. I can't make it due to geographical issues ... but I urge anyone from Donstalk interested in helping create a new Red Ultras-like supporters group to read on ....
Dear DonsTalk,
A few weeks ago I wrote to the support asking for your opinions, ideas and support to help improve the atmosphere at Pittodrie.
The response has been excellent and heart-warming, with many responses from all sections of the Aberdeen support, which is fantastic as we can achieve so much more if when we are united in a common cause.
Recent events make it even more important. We, the fans, must stay together as at the end of the day it is OUR club.
The cast of players and management will always change, but the generations of us remain and hopefully always will there to back the team through thick and thin.
I firmly believe we can make a positive difference to the current atmosphere by bringing more noise and colour to the stands, and from the response shown by you to our call is that you feel the same.
Time to get down to basics- I would like to invite you all to a public meeting in the Broadhill Bar (Upstairs Lounge) on Saturday the 20th March at 11am, The day of the Dundee United game at Pittodrie.
Everyone in the support is very welcome to attend.
The aim of the meeting shall be as follows;
1) Decide what we feel the most important basic changes are that have to be made to improve the atmosphere at Dons games.
2) Appoint a group of people, drawn from all of us, to help further those aims, who will liaise with club with regard to organising displays and towards getting the changes required made to make the atmosphere better at Pittodrie.
3) Decide when and how we will approach the club with these aims before next season begins.
To help with this, as many of you need to attend as possible, from all sections of our support.
Season ticket holders, supporters clubs representatives, groups of fans both official and unofficial, message board regulars and irregulars, the committed, the occasional and the disillusioned- anyone who is Aberdeen needs to have a voice with regard to backing the team positively on a match day.
Obviously to help with the running of the meeting, and for those who cannot attend, it will help if you have considered a lot of the issues beforehand and let us know your ideas, and what help you may be able to offer. To do this, I’d like you to consider the answers to the following three questions and e-mail the answers back to me.
Which three off the field changes would most improve the atmosphere at Pittodrie?
Who do you feel within the support can best represent these views?
What are you prepared to do to help make these things happen?
We have an opportunity here to speak with one voice and make the future in the stands at Aberdeen a brighter, more vibrant and independent one.
It’s up to us to make it happen, so I hope to see many of you at the meeting.
Thank you for taking the time to read this letter.
