Well that's not true. We were split over the two stands in more than one occasion recently. Also, we only started getting punted into the main stand maybe 10 years ago so no idea where you got 20 years from.

Yes at home. Our away form is far, far different.

We've not steamrollered anyone away from home in about 2 years except a rank rotten Dundee Utd.

Ah, i'd expect them to open another one later in the week.

Two sections

North stand open

North Stand about to be opened.

Hope so as i'm gambling on the stand behind the goals being opened up! Otherwise i'll be going undercover with you lot! Not sure why Killie would have told them that all we'd need, we've carried a very good away support in recent years despite our away form.

So was i as we almost filled that main stand area midweek this season.

Aye only 40 or so tickets left in the main stand. Most of my bus just holding off until they open behind the goals.

Aye it is. We have Rory McKenzie who'll likely have 400+ appearances for us when his deal expires next year but it's rare.

*League game

We've maybe 150 tickets left out the away section of the main stand. I assume they'll just open behind the goals when it sells out as it defo will in the next day or so.

You need to do better than that, terrible fishing.

If teams can get fines and thrown out cups for minor rules breaches and covid breaches than you surely must be fining Dundee given their inability to keep their park in even the slightest way acceptable. It's like they've just fucked off any maintenance on drainage etc as they are moving (believe it when I see it) soonish. That goes with the full stadium actually.

Do they the normal away end in the Moin and the two others behind the goals? At least you've stopped punting all your fans into the main at least.

We give them one end. The same as you do. We've only ever given them over 2 stands once (the above mentioned title game that was a dead rubber for us) and have only given them one stand since 2019. We've literally put in safe standing, a family area, corporate boxes/offices in the other stand they used to get and are in process of building a community area out the back of it. They'll never get that stand again. If somebody had told me that 10 years ago i'd never have believed them but the board took a gamble after listening to the fans and it's paid off. That's why it's depressing to see others just take the money and run and happy to let these games turn into an away game.

You can talk about history all you want, was the chairman, not the fans. Fans were far from happy about it. The fans got rid of the chairman, got a fan on the board and are reaping the benefits as the club now takes the fans into consideration. Meanwhile you've lived off the same family for 30 odd years and are happy to sell them 3 sides of your stadium every time they come calling. Our previous chairman gave Celtic 3 stands for a title deciding game. You give them it every single season. Least we've grown a set, doubt you ever will.

The same Killie who give the OF the same amount of tickets as Hibs do? Okay then.

I was at the Hibs Hearts final as a neutral in the Hibs end. Some unbelievable heads gone scenes.

I'd take that club statement with a pinch of salt.

So you are happy to just see your home games turn into away game in these games for ever, without even trying to reverse it? How does letting Celtic do Tifo's etc make you money btw?

Eh? Our home crowds have increased probably two fold since we did it, not sure how much more evidence you need that it works? Fair enough i get why you are rubbishing it given you give the OF tickets in 3 stands and probably always will.

Relying on away fans to sustain your club is an even bigger risk.

No, we changed the board around then and started properly engaging with the fans. We reduced the Old FIrm allocation 5 years ago.
