Our second highest average attendance this century, only beaten marginally in 05/06. Taking in to consideration smaller away supports in the Championship its our best turnout of arabs this century.
Not seen mentioned elsewhere but following on from last weeks clinching of the League - at Dens - I think we deserve a collective pat on the back as a fan base. From THAT night in 2015 when the jewels of the family silver were sold, it has been one never-ending downward spiral with constant and repeated kicks along the way. However, despite Funster number cruncher predictions about what would happen to our support in the event of a Funny style multi season jolly, we have put paid to yet another dark blue myth by holding up our support by and large through this misery, keeping our season ticket numbers to good levels and culminating in last season by increasing our numbers significantly overall, including our biggest home supports for many a year in both games against them.
There have been many times over the last few years where we could have seriously chucked it but we’ve stuck at it, seen it through and can come out of this with our heads held very firmly high. Well done to one and all.

Yup certainly laid to rest the "they'll disappear like sna' aff a dyke" predictions made for many years by our friends from the darkside.
There is no debate. United have had higher average crowds than Dundee in 44 out of the last 45 seasons. The one season they ended up with a slightly higher average was during the fantasy spending era when they went in to wild celebrations at Pittodrie for getting in to the top 6. Even then United's average was higher going in to the split but us being bottom 6 tipped it for them with a couple of big away crowds at Dens

Next season will be massive for us and the club. We have to be ready for a season of trying to scrape together enough victories to stay in the league...survival is our main priority and anything else is a bonus.
Many regular fans will be struggling for cash so it will be up to those who can afford it, to step up and be counted.
We have gotten rid of our cancer, we are beginning to show signs of recovery but we are at a crossroads where we can continue to thrive or relapse. Time, patience and finances will give us the best chance going forward!
Agreed - its amazed me. The fun predicted we would fall and melt away if we were down for years. Stood firm even despite the poor football on show at times. SRYB
Our support has been excellent this season and previous. Well done Arabs.
The support has been excellent while we've been in the championship, it really has, especially away support!
Been some great and not so great away days
