Dozens of buses flying up it during the rush hour to try and make a 7:45 kick off is just asking for accidents to happen IMO. who gives a fuck Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Escobar 13,676 Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Hate the early kicks off, never enough time for a beer before the game. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is not possible to get a train from Glasgow to Aberdeen on Sunday that arrives before the 1230 kick off time! Earliest arrival is 1242. Six hours in a bus in one daywould kill my back for a fortnight :-( I know that TV schedules dictate when games will be, but is there any input at all from anyone who gives a shit about supporters? Does the club have any say at all in when the kick off will be? Are any of our fans' groups involved or consulted at any point at all? We've no chance of 2nd place - that ship has sailed without us - but we now need to cement third and guarantee European football next season, so the match is far from meaningless and I want to be at every game I can to back the bears. 1230 starts in Aberdeen on a Sunday don't make it easy though............ 5:30am start and 10 hour round trip for me from Dumfries! fans who follow are the authorities last thought.

TheCutch 4,340 Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Date of this game is perfect. I work Sunday nights and 2 of my holidays pencilled in every year are away trips to Sheepland and the Sunday of The Masters. Both falling on the same day this week is superb. 9.00 - Leave for Shittodrie with Cargo of Cider. 14.30 - Back on bus for remainder of said cargo on trip back down the road. 17.30 - Back in Larky for a few pints in the pub. 19.00 - Pizza bought on way up the road. 19.30 - Settle down with more Cider and hopefully watch one of my bets win The Masters. A win for The Gers and a winner at the golf would complete a Carlsberg Sunday. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst I'd normally have little concern for any grief they have, as a football fan it's actually justified. Football cares not a jot for the fans, it's all about the TV money. The club doesn't really care either, nor do authorities etc. Fans groups? Meh. Alternatives are to get someone to drive - will speed up the journey, or stay in the shit hole on Saturday night. Alternatively if it's still too much and you're looking to get rid of that ticket.... Ross County and ICT can take a fuck to themselves, they dont even turn up to their home games never mind their shite away crowd at least Aberdeen have a decent away following and their complaints are justified.
