Breaking News - New Stadium and Training Facilities

Aberdeen based fans claiming it'll be fine getting a bus have a cheek. Every game at Hampden there's post upon post about transport. Subways, several nearby train stations, taxis galores and a regular bus service.

Different thing altogether. Those complaints are only ever about getting to Glasgow for a lunchtime kick off when first train doesn't get into Glasgow on time. Nobody complains about getting to Hampden once you are actually in Glasgow because as you say there are multiple options

Please explain how getting from Bridge of Don (If I Recall Correctly) to Dundee for an away game is easier than getting to Kingsford using the same transportation methods.

I'm open to differing views, but you've yet to articulate a plausible justification.

You don't know where he works and he stated that an evening game will be a bigger pain in the ass than getting to Dundee. So he may have a point

Those complaints surface every time we have to play there.

It's a long standing "complaint". That and where to drink.

I still remain unconvinced.
I await the clarity of how you can get to Dundee and back quicker than to Kingsford, even for a midweek game.

Even the restriction of a midweek evening game will have seen the rush hour disperse before kick off and would be far easier than before the AWPR and getting to Pittodrie for many supporters.

Put together a coherent argument and convince me.
Thats what a debate forum is for.
It has been done before, but mostly on hear is just people spouting noise with no backing.

I'll be happy to concede if the data can back it up.
I reckon even working to the south of Aberdeen (say Stonehaven), it will be quicker getting to Kingsford than to one of the Dundee teams midweek.

From Cove or Portlethan, I'd say photo finish depending on traffic

No way min. Cove to Westhill is now 15 minutes on the AWPR to whatever queues at Westhill, whereas it is 50 minutes to the definite queues at Kingsway
