If people don’t vote with their feet tonight and the attendance is over 150 I’ll be extremely disappointed. Really I would love it to go sub 100 but that won’t happen. Prior to the announcement I thought anything over a tenner and people would be raging but to over £15 is disgusting, £12 is the maximum I would have (begrudgingly) paid for this, to charge more than it was to watch us play Premiership opposition is insulting. Why's your game on tonight, not Saturday? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Accie1 Posted September 3 Share Posted September 3 Don't think anyone knows. We moved one midweek game to a Saturday and now have moved a Sat game to a midweek. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A millionaire owner who has no idea what it's like being a normal person with bills to pay and families to feed. And he never learns. The Kelty Scottish Cup price was crazy and fewer than 500 Accies fans turned up. The prices for the League Cup were steep but £15, 10 & 5. I noticed it just says £8 for U18s so not even a price for under 12s. How can this game be dearer than the League Cup? Dare I mention the cash challenges or is that insensitive of me? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only assume it may be that Dundee United B may have expected to lose some players to u19s/u21s duty maybe? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laid-back Accie Posted September 3 Share Posted September 3 Have they finally listened, or will it be £25... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamntg Posted September 3 Share Posted September 3 As a United fan in the vicinity of Hamilton tonight I fancied popping along until I realised me and the boy would set me back £32. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
accies1874 Posted September 4 Share Posted September 4 I'm honestly annoyed that as many as 308 folk turned up last night. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theaccie1 Posted September 4 Share Posted September 4 I think most that turned up were in the age category for the £8 entrance fee. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moysterclass Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 That's Jamie Hamilton away, confirmed. Massive loss given how much he contributed last season and to our trophy win the season before. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Accie1 Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 Would have liked to see a fully fit Jamie and Fergus centre half pairing but not to be. Thought he might struggle to get tied up after he refused our offer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got a 3 month deal and been papped out to EK to see if he can lay off the sausage rolls and avoid getting injured for more than 5 minutes. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he stays fit then we’ve got a good defender with a good bit of potential on an 18 month contract. If he gets injured again or comes back in poor shape then we can cut ties with him for nothing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can get the Jamie Hamilton who first burst onto the scene in the top League, you would have the best defender in this League as he was fantastic as a teenager. Question is whether or not his potential has vanished for good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That "good bit of potential" is dead and has been for about 6 months. He hasn't played in about 2/3 years. EK is his level now. He just might be a good championship defender in about 5 years. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Brown didn't think he was good enough he would never have bothered to get this deal over the line. I think it is a case of 'go and prove your fitness' rather than ability. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Mcleod Posted September 13 Share Posted September 13 (edited) Centre half from St Johnstone signed until January. Not expecting good reviews from St Johnstone fans however hopefully he does well in the championship glad to see we've went for a younger guy as we did need a center half with a bit more pace hopefully he can form a good partnership with McGinty.

My St Johnstone source said he is a big, tall lad who can't run, can't head and can't defend . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We definitely need to give the guy a chance there's a big difference from Premiership to the Championship so hopefully he'll be fine in the championship. You look at Connor Smith who was comfortably our best player 2 seasons ago now hated by a lot of St Johnstone fans. This signing probably means we'll see Macdonald go back in the midfield which will improve our midfield as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
