My feeling is that football is expensive and the reason we charge so much is because we have expenses that are too high in relation to the current levels of income, we need to play more games at Dens by having much better performances in the cup competitions and finally a cost free criticism, we need to have much better communications with our supporters.

You have consistently argued that our fan base is old and getting older. The sales of ST's and PATG can surely be analysed by the club. I would hope that FPS realise that if they want to increase the numbers of supporters then they need to breakdown their financial information into numbers of tickets bought by the different age groups, and pursue different strategies to maximise the numbers in the different age groups.

My only suggestion is that there should be lower prices for the SE in the hope that it would sell out and so stop the problem of PATG moans for that stand.

I would charge more for OAP's but I'd do it as a price freeze for them and have tweaks on the pricing, downwards, for the full price ST's and PATG and the young who are not able to be part of a family deal.
The arguments been WON.

I don't have to win it again.

Calling them idiots is my personal feelings on how anybody cud put that forward as a proposal.....oh we have loads of old fans and less and less working age and young fans......let's make it cheaper for old fans.......as I say....idiots..
