Full capacity

Correct, thats all they have to do keep the away fans back for 5-10 mins let the home fans disperse then let them out. Why have they only just thought of this idea for the Well game?

My guess is they had to.

It’s a cup game and as such Motherwell are entitled to 40% of all proceeds. Dundee due to the arrangements in recent weeks are having to honour a number of free tickets, they would be due Motherwell money for those at full entry price x 40%.

So it’s likely the two clubs reached agreement on something like we don’t need to pay you for our free issue tickets and you can have away fans, maybe even let them keep the money from their own ticket sales as recompense.

No will, no drive to improve things.

No. 2 is the kind of elitist nonsense I'd expect from an old Tory like yourself.

Do the away fans also 'know how to behave themselves'? Or is any trouble at football matches only ever initiated by Dundee fans?

I thought that you have previously stated that you sit in the Main Stand at home games with the ‘toffs’.

Re - The Derry, still do not understand why it can't be reopened ?
We were in the Derry before Covid arrived, and now it's sat empty for over a year, and a half.
Nothing has changed, the safety security changes are all still in place, plus there has never been hot water, it was only closed when the water was frozen in the winter.
I am getting pissed off with the situation, I purchased a season ticket in my usual seat and I can't get in.
Feel like going in to ask for my money back.

At lunchtime today I sent an email to Jim Thomson stadium manager at Dens Park asking
1. Why is a staggered entry system still in place for the entry to the Bobby Cox Stand for the Motherwell game this Saturday when social distancing ended on Monday 9th August 2021.
2. Why are Motherwell supporters able to sit in the Away section of the Main Stand but Dundee supporters are not allowed to sit in the Main Stand.
3. When is the South Enclosure going to be reopened to allow Dundee supporters sit there during home games.
So far I have not received a reply from Jim Thomson.

I think you are right. There seems to be a good decision to allow those who didn't get to use their first ST for the St Mirren game, to use it for the Motherwell cup game. They do part of the job but then fall down by not making enough of an effort to open the SE. It is a running sore that should be addressed IMO.

Nope, Coxy with the plebs

And you won't get a reply

No but perhaps something will be done? Hoses got shifted so wondering if we shut up about the SE something might get done. You know the mentality, if you keep going in about it, I am not going to respond to bullying etc.

I moan like **** as I do at my golf club, not because I expect perfection but they should be striving to be as good as we can be.

I'll continue to moan and be as sacarstic as possible until I see improvement or until the nail lid shut.

The state of the place, the arrogance of the stadium manager and yellow vests, the lack of communication.....not good enough.

There's been ump**** suggestions on here over the years.....all ignored.....let's see if Islays email gets a response.

I think that Islay and you and Deeranged sometimes get "the shoot the messenger" treatment. Same happens on TDB forum where guys who make constructive but critical comments about the players get criticised for being negative rather than having their complaints being countered by an opposing view.
