Tamhain Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 15 hours ago, Father Barrys Sign (Top Half) said: Not that it really matters, but the order of the fixtures is pretty disappointing besides that wee February Arbroath/Stranraer away double whammy. Always prefer a nice wee August away trip, plus some decent away action over the holiday period. We have none of that and on the surface a tough run in. Pretty much what I thought, a bit meh really. The away day highlight is the first game in Dingwall. Plus when your derby day match is Queens Park you almost miss the Binos. Albeit mainly for the 12 points they guarantee us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normally the Binos give it the stuff about us not being important enough to be rivals. You've got Stenny next season, at least. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye we do have Stenny, which means trips to bloody Ochilview [emoji53] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Father Barrys Sign (Top Half) Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Stennys a brilliant away day though. Warriors Club, Station Hotel etc. Always decent behind the goals as well if you get a reasonable crowd in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The stewards are complete arseholes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it doesn't cost £16 to watch Pollok. McCluskey will probably be really good at that level. On the form he showed last season he was an option as an impact player from the bench, but never looked likely to be a regular starter. Good luck to him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
printer Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 McCluskey.......was an option as an impact player Especially if you were looking for zero impact. [emoji6] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Father Barrys Sign (Top Half) Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 Another Q & A with Jim Goodwin looks like going ahead Friday 7th July, night before the St Mirren friendly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know our ticket prices keep coming up, but I wonder what our attendance would be if we resorted to £6/£3, like Pollok? Obviously it wouldn't go up to the 1800 or so that would be necessary to cover the lower ticket price, but I can't imagine it'd add more than a couple of hundred to the average gate, even over the course of a whole season. Maybe more away fans would come, considering everyone knows how expensive we are now. 3 hours ago, Father Barrys Sign (Top Half) said: Another Q & A with Jim Goodwin looks like going ahead Friday 7th July, night before the St Mirren friendly.

I do. I don't stay away completely, I pick and choose my games. Paying £32 for a midweek game and a game on Saturday doesn't represent value for money for me personally. I work shifts with some weekend work so I wouldn't get any value from a season ticket (I gave mines up a few seasons back). Trying to persuade your mates who don't usually go to Alloa to take in a game is also pretty tough with a £16 price tag. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What price would be the defining amount for you to attend more games though ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
