    Dens and the morgue like atmosphere nowadays

    lets throw this one open.
    is there an appetite from the fans to improve the atmosphere?
    how would the fans achieve it?
    and very importantly do you think the club will now listen?


    from personal experience iv had barriers put up in front of me even when i was trying to get the derry sold out for the st mirren game last year,thats is just wrong on so many levels ranging from,customer service to common business rules.

    i agree with several others on here that we may have passed the crossroads to do anything about it,such is the apathy that is oozing from dens at the moment.

    the minute people start not giving a fcukk about the state of the stairs/hoses/trees growing oot o places they shouldnt be or even the white spot on the red wall that eventually got coloured in within the tv interview area,then its slippery slope time.

    some people are obviously ultra confident that they are in a job for life,well they aint and they should start doing their job or get another one,quite simple.

    Dens is an absolute disgrace at the moment and the paying public us are putting up with it,or are we?after the crowd on saturday.

    its high time some people got their fingers oot their arses and took a bit of pride at their work.

    Starts at The TOP.

    If the man at the top don't care, neither does the stadium manager and other staff, don't answer e mails, become closed to new ideas, don't fight for what's important to the club.

    This seeps down to management ( ach it's just another pumping), players (**** putting my head in there), ****ing ball boys stewards everything.

    Said on another thread it's just a job to some of these paps who have not become rich working for dundee but the soul of the club has been rotting away on their watch.

    A desert of passion, pride, hunger and desire.

    but surely its in some of their remits/job spec to report back to their boss so its either
    they aint doing so
    or
    the boss aint listening

    the pitch is usually in tip top condition and i believe the groundsman aint slow in keeping his standards high if someone walks on the surface when they shoiuldnt,your right thats called pride

    Did anyone see Aberdeen’s “Red Shed” on Saturday, they gave the Paddock up to young boisterous fans, cheap entry and encouraged to stand and sing, it’ll be about 5 years before we catch on to this, yet it’s a simple fix for the Derry, I’d give over the Derry to under 25’s, or at least let people know what to expect, ie people standing and trying to create an atmosphere, it won’t happen over night, but get around the schools with the tickets now

    Nothing will happen until we start winning at home...you can dress it up any way you like but until the team starts winning especially in this league people aren't coming back

    Can't create an atmosphere if only 500 fans turn up

    Hadn't realised you were so touchy over here tbh. But no worries I'll leave, but I'll be right back if I read any Dee posts on our board? Is that fair enough?
