Oh well done.

 

We might have got a crowd for that one.

You are fucking kidding me on!

 

Nice one AFC.  Bunch of wanks.  I was looking forward to this one.

 

That's an automatic 1,000 knocked off the attendance then.

I'm not sure what the situation is but can the club do anything other than comply with Setanta/The SPL?

We've just to bend over and take it.

Once again the dictators that are the telly folk move football from it's traditional Saturday time meaning that real fans have to move everything around to suit too. Swines!

 

When the SPL signed the telly deal they knew that tv would take it's pound of flesh from the clubs, but taking it from the fans as well is a total liberty. No wonder crowds are dwindling.

 

FOOTBALL FOR FANS!

On the upside, us cyber fans will get to see the game.

 

Every cloud and that.....

It's the ten days notice that pisses me off.  I'm up the road anyway that weekend but other central belt dons have already booked their train tickets specifically for the game and it's happening with too much regularity these days.

Fuck

off

AFC.

You are fucking kidding me on!

And the rest. Would have thought Falkirk would have brought a big support (for them) if it was to decide top 6 finish.

 

Little chance of making this one now. Thnakfully I held off from booking the train last night.

Thank you very much you bastards

 

Had already made plans to get up for this one. As others have already said anticpated a half decent crowd for this if still possibility of getting into top six and vouchers being given out for potentail cup final appearance.

 

Guess its a half day off work or sit in the hoose and watch it then

While it is a shite move....

The 80k that Setanta gives the club would account for 4000 fans @£20 each.

 

Would still be better with more fans at the game though.

Forgot to cancel my Santa from the Bayern game. Might as well keep it now. I'm happy

What a farce, I was actually going to make the trip up for this one. Football for fans? My arse...

I'm fairly sure we don't actually get any extra money for having our matches on Setanta. The tv money each team gets is purely based on league position and not the amount of matches of theirs are on.

 

Or at least thats what I am led to believe.

As long as it's a better showing from the Dons this year than last year on my Birthday.

 

Maybe we should complain as QoS will have a week to prepare for semi final and now we won't? It's a conspiracy!!!!

Fuckin disgrace this has been moved, especially at such late notice.

 

Cowie ..... the club don't get anymore money for this.

 

Edit: Sorry Penfold, didn't notice your post.  That's my understanding of the situation as well.

Shite decision. Could have been a good atmosphere at that game.

The Ultras will still be there to create our famous atmosphere.

Excellent news, will get to the game now.

 

 

 

 

Well in that case they are cunts!!!!

Must have been thinking about cup matches..

This is pish.

 

End of message. Short notice and usual short termist shite making a complete mockery of the Scottish game yet again.

Will it still be a 'vouchered' game for the final

hope so - should keep some of you exiles away!!! 

 

Real Aberdeen fans live in Aberdeen 

 

If you can find any. 

fuckpigs owe me £60 edit actually it's £80 edit2 aww for fuck sake it is £120 :hammer:

 

that is all

Doesn't bother me since I'll be able to make it, but it does seem like ridiculously short notice.
