I read it as if he said the caller from Aberdeen was having a dig at Rangers’ incentive to renew. Either or, a bit of an odd flex considering Aberdeen offered nothing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aberdeen have not decided on theirs yet but think it's a bit shitty of Rangers to offer a blanket "take it or leave it £20 club shop voucher". It's cute to see roaming the threads to jump in to Rangers defence as usual though. That's why I made sure to post it.

coprolite Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 If the club thinks that it is appropriate to have baseless unjustified digs at Rangers and Celtic just for the sake of it then they have my full support. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodhull Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 (edited) God forbid if a club employee did make a harmless joke though eh? Clearly the SFA/SPFL must look into this and sanctions be imposed! Edited April 8, 2021 by Rodhull 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingjoey Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 20 hours ago, Merkland Red said: the club called me today as I'm a season ticket holder. Expected a hard sell but (as per Daves q&a) said they weren't in a position to sell season tickets without having a better idea of when fans will get back in to the stadiums. Said they are looking to offer an incentive to renew. Had a wee dig at the old firm (Rangers offering a take it or leave it £20 club shop voucher and Celtic offering nothing) but did add that it's a bit more understandable as both clubs have waiting lists for season tickets. All in all it was a call making sure I was keeping safe and healthy and to expect another call at the end of the month. That sounds like great customer service, and look forward to my call, hopefully. The club has phoned my five times since last March, and only one could be classed as a sales call. And even that was offering me a much reduced AberDNA monthly payment as I had already renewed my season ticket and had bought the new strip. Certainly going to renew my season ticket again no matter what and keeping the AberDNA at the full price this season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t believe Rangers have issued renewal forms for 21/22 as yet (I certainly haven’t received it) or have advised what their plans are so I don’t know what incentives (or lack of) there will be for renewing so I’m not sure how Aberdeen know what we are offering. The £25 voucher was to renew for the current 20/21 season and supporters were also able to claim a refund on the matches that were not completed in 19/20. It just seemed odd that Aberdeen would criticise teams for offering renewal incentives last year despite having offered absolutely nothing themselves as yet.

DukDukGoose Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 1 minute ago, AJF said: Normally the kind of response someone gives when they grudgingly agree but don’t want to admit it Nope. Aberdeen are still working on what incentive they are going to offer. This was also discussed by the Chairman at the recent Q&A. He thought the token "here's a club shop voucher" was a bit shit. Aberdeen are going to announce something at the end of the month but hope they can come up with something better than that. I'm not sure why you're upset about this but here we are. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you’re comparing two different seasons. For 20/21, Rangers offered a £25 voucher whereas Aberdeen offered nothing. For 21/22, we don’t know what either club will be offering so how can we compare? I said I found it an odd flex for Aberdeen to make considering they’ve currently offered nothing. I can call out hypocrisy without being upset. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
