Lalo Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 Carson won't (or shouldn't) start. McCracken hasn't put a foot wrong and it'd be suicide to make Carson's first game this one, imo. How big is the away allocation at St Mirren? Google says the stand holds about 1600 but do we get the whole stand or is some of it sectioned off? Was in picking my tickets up today, was a decent queue and was told there is about 400 tickets left so hopefully we can sell them by Saturday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve_Wilkos Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 Dear Glasgow Saintees and Scumpee fans, Just popped into this thread to remind both sets of fans that Aberdeen FC are bigger than your two clubs combined and always will be.

Big_Steve Correct. Aberdeen are one of Scotland’s bigger clubs. I’m devastated to learn that fact. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed tickets are selling well for this fixture. Hopefully Dundee bring a good support with them, in which case I predict a crowd of ~7,000. Great but we shit the bed when a big crowd turns up 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was in picking my tickets up today, was a decent queue and was told there is about 400 tickets left so hopefully we can sell them by Saturday. Yeah away end holds 1600. They will probably hold off on selling the section nearest the home end (N1) until last, but since you've already sold 1200 I imagine you're going to sell the whole lot so that bit will be open. You can see them doing that for the Motherwell game in the cup which we are selling ourselves. N1 is not currently for sale as it's right next to W7 which is where the North Bank are. https://www.stmirren.com/awaysupporters.shtml 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A week to get to know the defence, he’s a fully signed Dundee player, he’s the Doc’s number 1. Harsh on McCracken but I see no other way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe mate, don't think he had a pre season with St Mirren so I'd be surprised. Guess its a good problem to have having 2 competent keepers 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess its a good problem to have having 2 competent keepers He got part of a pre season but he missed the first 3 or 4 weeks as he was apparently asked to stay away. Not sure of how involved his training schedule was afterwards as he only trains Monday-Wednesday anyway and he wasn't available for selection on matchdays. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's bizarre he only trains Monday-Wednesday, is there a valid reason for that? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's because of a knee issue. A bit like ledley king used to have. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
