Then to add to that it is a very early 12:00 kick off (hate them) prefer to meet my mates for a few hours before to "discuss" how things will go. Then I see the price has changed from £23 for my last match to £30 for this one.

    Call it what you will, inflation, current climate, Covid 19 bail out, that leap in price is too much. The fans have supported the club well financially over the last few years. Accepting the SPL prices in the diddy league to help with SPL players wages amongst other things was just one.

    Don't want to seem a whinger, but unless we the fans somehow let the club know that we (maybe not everyone) think £30 is a wee bit to much too soon, then someone within the club might think all is well and the fans are quite happy with this.

    I will be back very soon I know that, but a culmination of things have put me off this fixture.

    So, I'm gonna do a Wolfie Smith on behalf of the Tannadice Popular Front and protest by staying away for this one.

    PS: you can get hell of a lot of beer and nibbles for £30
    Yeah you can get quite a lot of beer for £23 also so why bother going at all? To be fair don't like sunday matchs or early kick off's like my few pints before and after but would not use them as an excuse to miss a derby or a few quid if I could afford it but hey ho no problem everyone makes their own choices.

    I'm not making any excuses for missing the derby, I'm making a personal choice. I don't like the day, or the time, and think the price hike is too much too soon. I can afford to go but If we all just pay for everything we can afford then that's another huge can of wurmz
