  1. We missed the boat with the bing last time in premiership it we did not own it then so hypothetical. The best hope commercially is to maximise old firm and hearts dollar like clubs like Motherwell and give them a decent allocation that does not piss everyone off. This is not attractive to me personally but brings in cash and we don’t sink or swim on these results anyway. Converting the bing into a safe standing lightweight stand would take 2000+. We would need a sustained period in top flight to cover it however. And to add a decent digital screen not that stupid scoreboard that’s the most pointless addition to the ground in modern times.
  2. Warriors were playing yesterday at same time as us. They got a full house. I know some folk follow both so would most likely have picked the rugby yesterday.
  3. Been posted elsewhere, reakoning it's Dundee Utd
  4. Xmas eve and hogmany fixtures were the perfect opportunity to have double headers against your local derby team, in our case probably killie. Can't understand why this has not been muted as it would reduce travel for supporters over the festive period and create a lot of interest to encourage folk along.
  5. I'm not that bothered with the old firm games at foothills but it's unfair if not discussed with the club's upfront. The biggest thing for me is the fact there is no regard for trying to make the game easy and accessible for fans at midweek games and over the festive period. Also the "FU" message the Septic sends to the SPFL by postponing a Saturday game as quick as its announced makes a mockery of the whole establishment.
  6. Same happened to me in the JHS and I had renewed, looks like they were prepared and no fuss at all to get in.
  7. Been to some baseball games when over in the States. They have got the customer experience spot on, football could learn a lot from them in that department.
  8. What an awful night to play a game of football. I think the pitch done us all a favour. Would playing tonight on plastic really have been a better option ?
  9. Joyous when we win, depressing when we lose,a forum for everyone...!
  10. Ill be surprised if we play with the 3 on Saturday, I think he will defer back to a 4-2-3-1, Hearts play with more width than United. Will be down to the personnel to give a big performance to get anything.
  11. I like it the way it is now. particularly like the last 5 games post split. hope it does not change, we need to keep improving year on year. Having a larger league will take the edge of it mid to bottom of the table.
  12. They appear to be picking up the email and mobile number from the sign up account for tickets etc and using the ones that have ticked to receive info from club. I did wonder how my kids were receiving stuff and I never until I checked.
  13. Tag will only start to pay dividend if it has something extra worth having. I've said all along it should have exclusive streaming of U20 matches,it would then be worth extra.the games are recorded for tactics etc anyway so couldn't be that difficult or expensive to implement.
  14. our main problem is not anticipating the second ball. Our success rate from picking up possession from this is poor.Higgy for instance wins almost all flick ons but we rarely capitalise from this by a runner overlapping. There are examples of this all over the pitch.
  15. Having had a look at tag its not really worth anything as the stuff on it is not marketable or value add. If for instance it had live streaming of the under 20's games, id buy the top up to season ticket access in a flash as im not going to go to these matches, but would happily stream them and im sure others would do he same, brining in a few bob. At least the infrastructure is there now to make more interesting content available in future I suppose.
  16. Most improved player this season be a mile.
  17. St Mirren played a high line first half to prevent us from playing out so even giving the ball to the fullbacks they would have been closed down quickly and would have to punt, also kept three up when we had a corner. They had to change the two players early second half as they were knackered. We pushed wider in the midfield second half which made the difference and created more space, it was obviously discussed a half time or we would have got stuffed..!
  18. pick and choose away games and ill not be picking this one..! Shit view, stuffed in a corner of a hollow stadium behind a pole is not for me. Stick us all behind the goal and ill change my mind however. Wont be back at Dens for the same reason.
  19. The whole squad coming onto the park a few minutes early and do a cardio arm up is a good idea. Its amazing how many goals in general are scored and conceded by teams in the first 5-10 mins of the second half. Setting a high tempo is important especially if your a goal down. Im not too bothered about the subs at half time as they keep warm generally all game behind the goal.
  20. Was hard to get hold of a medium in that top. I had to buy a large at the time.
