    It's been explained to you on here several times so I'm not doing it again. I reckon one would be justifiable and probably enough though.

    I wud doubt it says it on certificate but the certificate wud have been issued on that understanding between council and club.

    Strangely all surges��, standing on seats�� and encroachment (luv that word) is either at all tic games or in the case of encroachment from the bobby cox.

    Its surely time patg was looked at again from the deer but with so many Celtic, Utd and women councillors in Dundee I doubt this.

    Been a bit of crushing apparently at the last two concerts at the waterfront.....that will be ignored though.....cant have anything said aboot the waterfront.

    You're spinning that and we both know it, I've never said I thought every game should be all ticket. I said I agreed with the club's ticketing policy after having the reasons for its implementation explained to me. I do however now believe that one cash turnstile in The Coxy would be justifiable.

    The Bobby Cox was all but full against United last week, if we get them at Dens in The Scottish Cup it's likely to be there again.

    At Dens it does.....more unsafe with a ticket.

    Tickets do nothing to alter the safety of a stadium in a positive way, fixing stairs, tannoy and exit might though.....shud employ a stadium manager that's my suggestion....with all due respect.

    No spinning anything

    You argued that you were happy that every stand was all ticket, and today you have again said fans are using it as an excuse not to go to Dens...

    Shaded has said he went home because of the queing situation already this season (how many more are like that) ?

    If the Bobby Cox is full to capacity for any league game this season it will be a miracle

    Again il ask

    Why not cash gates at every turnstyle in Cox rather just one?

    Do you think the club shud approach dab council re Derry?

    I think having to get a ticket wont put off most that post on here or Pravda but I think if you can be bothered to post on a fitba forum then dfc will mean a bit more to you than the boy in the pub at half two whose swithering about going.

    I've honestly got Dundee supporting pals who go to 3 or 4 games a year who wud get over it in a weekend if dfc shut the doors.

    We are making it easier and easier to stop these boys going instead of the opposite.

    Of course they should approach the council. But given the stuff that's gone on during the derbies with people standing on seats I don't see the council, DAB or not, being happy to relax requirements.

    As I've said before if it wasn't the double queue that puts people off going it would be something else, I want to go and will always find a reason to go - opposite applies to those that don't really want to go. Anybody that goes to the effort of getting to Dens and decides against going in because there's a queue at the ticket desk probably shouldn't be going to public events where queuing is normal. I've queued longer at ASDA checkouts than people have to queue to get tickets for Dens.

    Would these guys be happier queuing for five minutes at a cash gate rather than the shop or would they about turn as soon as they saw the queue?

    Do these guys remember queuing at a cash gate on Dens Road whilst there were season ticket holder only gates with nobody queuing at them? Did that stop them going? Same question to anyone that thinks ticket only turnstiles at Dens are new. I remember queuing for fif**** minutes to pay into Dens in the seventies - nobody complained, stamped their feet or went in the huff and walked away back then.

    I think some people would only go if they could walk right in the exit doors and straight to their preferred seat unimpeded by anyone or anything.
