So not only am I gutted I have lost out on the game, I have lost hundreds of pounds on hotel and train fares which are non refundable. I am fucking fuming and as an Aberdeen fan for over 45 years I get treated like a piece of crap. Perhaps my money wasn’t good enough for the previous tickets bought, the two granite sets I bought for the century celebrations, the hundreds and hundreds of pounds I have spend on merchandise and memorabilia. I bought tickets under a legal contract that was honoured by AFC I am not letting my club do this to me, our club has unilaterally changed the rules, and this is in my opinion illegal and will be addressed accordingly. I’m so bloody annoyed. Oh I fucking despise the cunts Horrible Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Significantly bigger capacity, atmosphere, fan experience, transport links, facilities.... Can both be shit, but even then Hampden loses by a landslide. Plus for a cup final 15,000+ extra bears in attendance lording it over the sheep shaggers compared to Hampden. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

VanVeenRangers 2,546 Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 I'm 904 points on CCCS. Likely tickets will come down to that level in our end? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m around that as well. Think it’s unlikely tbh. The semi did obviously, but the sheep will bring more than Hearts did. There’ll be more corporate and hospitality too because it’s a final.

Even us alone it would be carnage. I agree with you. But what a spectacle it'd be. Footballs the national sport of Scotland, yet Hampden is what we have to show for it, and the SFA want to stay there. It's embarrassing when you consider Scotland's 2nd sport has outclassed footballs national stadium for 3 decades. It's a failing on the SFA, especially given the substantial higher funding they have than the SRU. If not Murrayfield, then there has to be a direction in the SFA to deliver something better than Hampden in the mid to long term. Sadly there isn't. Either way don't think the unwashed have to worry about travel arrangements for a final this season. Albertz85 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
