    Lost revenues over £20k. Who'd want to own a football club? We missed out on the other lot too, restricted gate early season. The one thing that's handy about them is kerching-ism.

    Yeah, but will get Sky TV money, which will be far more, and no guarantee the re-arranged fixture would be on tv..

    Don’t think there’s extra dosh for being on Sky, it’s part of the overall package I think?

    I think there is extra money for being on sky as well as where finish in table.

    Basically I suspect financial imperative was to get the match on

    I think the same, fans will have booked a bus and pub so wont want to miss out on an away day.Hundreds travel without tickets and I have a bad feeling about this decision. The 4Js will be a busy place.

    Always a tough day for the polis whenever either of the ugly sisters are in town. Personally love that they are bleating about lack of tickets. Short memories these guys

    Let's hope we get a few chants of "Less fans than Livi" ringing around Tannadice Sunday.

    Most importantly get right into them early. Bounce back from Tuesday's disaster

    I take it they’ve got the Shed as well though?

    I'll always take loss of revenue over limiting the amount of fans we allow from Celtic and Sevco at Tannadice, sporting advantage is more important and club pride and respect

    That Sevco game in August was bliss, none of them or their crap songbook, 4500 of us dotted around 3 stands created a great atmosphere, obviously with the damage we can't this weekend

    For me though, what we gave the sheep/dees is the most we should give any club, keep them at one side, with 7000+ of us in the other three stands, that would make for a cracking set up for they games but we won't do it

    Need a Sevco type performance Sunday

    Looking at our line up that day

    Benji
    LSmith Edwards Mulgrew Robson
    Fuchs Butcher Harkes
    Pawlett Clarke Chalmers

    Sporle on for Chalmers (50)
    Watson on for Pawlett (80)

    I would go
    Benji
    Freeman Edwards Mulgrew McMann
    Fuchs Butcher Harkes
    Pawlett Clark Niskanen

    That's assuming Fuchs makes it, wouldn't start both him and Levitt with both just returning (if they do), should leave us good options off the bench

    1-1

    That is my understanding of the tv payments. The ugly sisters get away with the vast majority of their tv games being away from home for them. This leaves most of their home fixtures on saturdays at 3pm other than after european games but the other teams have their ko times messed about, theoretically lose revenue due to reduced crowds and most of the dosh ends up with Celtic/Rangers due to them almost always ending up first and second. This is typical of the f#cked up nature of scottish football and is one of the many reasons why I hate the pair of them with a vengeance!
