How to kick your own support in the teeth.

[arabian_ian]

Ive been saying that to my son all season, why the phuck is Kashmir getting played before we run out??

Maybe trying to spice up the atmosphere.

Thompson sold all our best players, you never batted an eyelid.

Thompson hired a string of less than useless managers that have taken us from bad to worse, and you never batted an eyelid.

Thompson alienated the fans, told numerous lies, creating divisions amongst the support that will take years to mend, you never batted an eyelid.

Thompson managed to take in roughly eight figures in player sales, yet still somehow turned us into the financial basketcase you see today, with every last remaining asset the club has left mortgaged and held as collateral against the club's survival, you never batted an eyelid.

Thompson appointed a number of charlatans and yes-men to run his business for him so he could go off gallavanting to Bondi Beach several times a year while still drawing a six-figure salary, you never batted an eyelid.

Thompson dragged the club's name through the mud with all of his sleazy, sordid personal affairs, you never batted an eyelid.

Thompson almost single-handedly took a Club from perennial top-4 finishers, with regular cup final appearances and European nights to the renowned footballing colosseums of Glebe Park and The YOUR Radio 103FM Stadium, in a time that Usain Bolt would be proud of, you never batted an eyelid.

But.....Thompson refused to let you come and do everyone's tits in with your drum, and it's merry phucking hell for Baldy and co. Demanding resignations, leading the rebels down Tannadice Street, pitchforks in hand, yellow scarves over the shoulders chanting sack the board!

Knew you'd snap one day Smedka.

This FAF as FAF !!!!

For a start, filling the ET and GF as much as we can especially getting as many in the ETL every home game as possible, so shutting the Jerry Kerr for patg unless it's necessary

Agree with this and I also think that the singing section, with or without drums, needs to be encouraged more by the club. Why they're not doing more to get a better atmosphere is baffling. For the size of crowds we get compared to the rest of the teams in this league, it's terrible.

The ET Lower used to be where most of the singing started and the younger fans had a bit of a carry on but the stewarding at matches these days doesn't allow standing or any kind of nonsense so the energy is lost and people sit on their backsides with their mouths shut.

A section where people are allowed to stand up, jump around and sing without getting told off or stared at from other fans is what is needed to get the atmosphere back.

When I was young, I sang along with every song that got started in the Shed, it was a big part of the match experience. If we don't get the atmosphere back, everyone's (youngsters especially) enjoyment of the game isn't what it should be and gives people less of a reason to keep going.

When I first took my kids to the game, they talked about the fans more than the match. This changes a bit as they get more into football but it is still a huge part of going to watch professional football.

I'm over 50 years old and wouldn't be in the singing section but it's something that should be hugely encouraged by both the club and fans.

Tannadice is like a morgue these days being in this division certainly doesent help. The yells fae bairns and moans fae grandads is prevelant! Something needs to be done and a good start would be open part of the auld shed for standing and part for sitting ( its good enough fir they eejits the green brigade) make it patg to start with and most important, tell they tossy stewards to take a back seat and let people chill oot! Going to gemmes now is like running the polis/ steward gauntlet terrified to open yere mooth incase dejected fir being pished. No as bad as the glorious ibrox day but defo getting like that.

Just watching the Big Bash live from the MCG.
If you want to see an example of brilliant customer experience tune in to channel 414.
It's the polar opposite of your average Scottish senior football customer experience.
The answer could be giant heaters at Tannadice.

But then all the snowflakes would melt.

Lose 6-1 to Falkirk with 1200 Utd fans in attendance (for an hour anyway)

[LSArab]

Just looked up the average attendances for this year.

We have gone lower than our inferior neighbours

The slow killing of our club continues

[shedka]

Not when away support is removed, still very much four figures ahead on average

Their overall average is an embarrassment for top flight, must be about 6k despite visits from Celtic, Sevco, Aberdeen, Hearts, Hibs and St Johnstone so far which will amount to 15,000 away fans alone in those 6 games!
