I will keep complaining about cash turnstiles for Away fans but not for Dundee supporters until Greg Fenton and his boss John Nelms get them reinstated in the Main Stand and occasionally in the Bobby Cox Stand which happened pre Covid.Originally Posted by BP33
My maternal grandfather used to say “If you hit someone enough times with a hammer then eventually it would sink in’. My grandfather died in 1959 when people said what thought rather than what happens nowadays with the PC merchants.
I raised the matter at a Dee4life board of directors meeting at the start of this season but some of my fellow Dee4life directors did not see that it was a problem as they were season ticket holders and they could not see the ‘big picture’.
However at the Dee4life board of directors meeting in December 2022 the secretary admitted that he now understood the problem as he had to purchase a ticket for the Scottish Cup tie against Airdrie at Dens Park on Saturday 26th November 2022 because season tickets are only valid for League games. He arrived at the Ticket Office ten minutes before the start of the game expecting to walk in and purchase his ticket but there was a long queue of Dundee supporters standing outside the Ticket office also waiting to purchase their ticket for the game.
If there had been cash turnstiles in all parts of Dens Park this problem would not have arisen and the attendance would have probably been higher into the bargain.
All ticket matches used to take place because a game was likely to be a sellout which has never happened this season.
The only home games which require to be ‘all ticket’ are home games against Rangers, Celtic and Dundee United to stop supporters of these clubs purchasing tickets for seats in the Dundee supporters sections of Dens Park.
Based on last night’s performance we will not be playing home games against these clubs next season in the Premier League.
