Jan Vojáček Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 What are the prices for the Dumbarton vs Motherwell game next Saturday? Cheers £10/£5, though I'm not sure we should be letting a Rangers fan in for a game against Motherwell 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fitbawofthescottish Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 Lol I have a cpl of family members that are season book holders that go to Dumbarton. Hopefully that gets me in then? Decent prices and I'm always being hassled to come watch Dumbarton 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We lost by that score at East End Park in our first division meltdown season under Jim Fallon on 20/04/96. Martin Mooney scored for Sons. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PWL Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 We lost by that score at East End Park in our first division meltdown season under Jim Fallon on 20/04/96. Martin Mooney scored for Sons. Might be a different game but I remember us going 1-0 up with Stevie Dallas scoring. Only for us to get tanked 4-1 in the end. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Socks Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 It seems utterly mental for the games against us to be all-ticket, when games against Falkirk and St Mirren (clubs with a similar fanbase) are not; obviously it's a much shorter trip from Paisley than from Dunfermline as well. One of the games there a few years ago was quite busy in the away end, but generally our away crowd for run of the mill league games in the West has been about 400 - a bit higher last year for most games, but that won't last when we're not winning most weeks as we were last season. And £20 as well - great. Ticket games when necessary are fair enough, but for games like this it just seems an unnecessary irritation. Completely daft to make a game in April all-ticket with no idea how the two teams will be doing at that stage as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bring Back Paddy Flannery Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 Who would the two be that got sent off? Over to you so8 I think that may have been well before his time 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably talking about the 4-0 gubbing a few years back when Shay was dismissed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sons'r'us Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 (edited) I seem to remember a game at East end park when Murdo mcLeod was manager that we got beaten by a similar scoreline and if memory serves me right there may been a sending off or 2. What's sticks in my mind for that game circa 1994 was Calum Campbell became our record transfer for £65k a couple of weeks prior. It had previously been Charlie Gibson for £50k I think. Anyhow whereas Charlie was a legend Campbell hardly started. This game was one of his few starts. I think we may have went 1 up then imploded or equalised then imploded. Anyone remember this game?

sons'r'us Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 Just done a wee check there and we did indeed get beaten 4-1 by Dunfermline in Oct 2nd 1993. I think this was the game I recall. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Moonster Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 Presumably you have information that this is a club decision. I can't understand why the club would do that when it leads to lower crowds. Baffling The club asked each club to let us know how many they expect to bring. Dunfermline told us a number that meant tickets would be a safe idea. Why does it lead to lower crowds? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why does it lead to lower crowds? Walk up will attract a bigger crowd on the day over all ticket in the majority of circumstances. Anything which makes it more difficult for a supporter to attend, means that the chances he/she will are lessened. Simples. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Moonster Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 But anyone who uses the walk in prices will see that you need a ticket for the Dunfermline match and surely get one before the game? Unless we're talking about fans who don't ever attend our games and might just show up on the day of that game but I'd guess that number is pretty small. If anyone is put off by having to phone the club to get a ticket sent out then I'm afraid there's not much the club can do. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BallochSonsFan Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 The walk up crowd is a small part of our overall gate so shouldn't have a particularly big impact on crowd numbers. The biggest issue with this for me is convenience. Having to pick up tickets is annoying when I've got a wee book in my wallet that does me perfectly well for every other home game. On a similar note - anybody received their season books yet? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
