calum Posted November 10, 2007 Report Share Posted November 10, 2007 Some crazy, crazy diehards out there. Sure you don't mean folk who never go to games but fancy a trip to Madrid and fancy getting to look/feel like "diehards"?4 of us sat and phoned continuously for 3 hours before the message started saying they'd sold out.

-matthEw- Posted November 10, 2007 Report Share Posted November 10, 2007 exactly, i know a few folk who had scrounged a season ticket/fake passport number of their mates who managed to get tickets by queuing. the kind of people that only go to the big Rangers' games. i dont want to get involved in any "Real" fans versus Part timers debate, but if i hadnt got a ticket i would have severely aggrieved at some of the people who got ahead of me. farce the way the club has run it, but it's hard to think of an ideal system, i guess a ballot would have been the most sensible option, whilst gauranteeing tickets for the people that were in Ukraine and/or Greece that wanted.i know one person who was at Dnipro and Athens, season ticket holder, goes to the majority of away games as well, but didnt get a ticket...gotta feel sorry for him, although i'm sure he'll end up in our section some way.

-matthEw- Posted November 10, 2007 Report Share Posted November 10, 2007 also FUCK the TMG Charter and the ridiculous amounts going to Staff/Players. almost 1000 tickets were gone already by my speculative calculations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty hard to police for the club as you say. I guess we got lucky with getting through on the phones. I reckon the club will manage to get more allocated to us.

At least when i get home next time ive got 2 trips to Motherwell.Congratulations to you guys that got tickets. Ill be watching the game on the rig unfortunetly!!Hope we get a win today, i want the same level of commitment that we have had in the past 3 games! Although i have never seen Aberdeen score at Tyncastle let alone win, so i hope i'm not a jinx!!!Mon the Dons! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Jake Wifebeater Posted November 11, 2007 Report Share Posted November 11, 2007 St. Johnstone 0-0 DunfermlineAfter the past few weeks, I can't really complain about that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Stax Posted November 11, 2007 Report Share Posted November 11, 2007 Woeful decision making by some of the Dons today. Way off the mark right across the pitch and dare I say it but UEFA matches are clearly taking their toll. They did play some neat football in the first half but couldn't keep going. Och well. Not disheartened by it I must say... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not disheartened by it I must say...I only caught the second half on TV, but yeah, some tired legs out there. I walked in at half-time, saw it was 2-1 and said to my lady "it'll end up 4-1". Sigh. From what I saw, however, Hearts weren't particularly good - just really clinical. We're a team that still lacks a final ball. We have no genuine craft or invention anywhere on the pitch. I hope this UEFA Cup money will be used to find some... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christy Posted November 12, 2007 Report Share Posted November 12, 2007 it's the defence that worries me. Losing too many goals from set plays. Also, we're horribly weak down the left. I understand that Calderwood likes two speedy fullbacks, but I reckon McNamara would be a better choice at leftback than Foster right now, at least until we shore things up and stop giving away such cheap goals. Foster gets caught out of position so often.Love from Christy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brymon Posted November 12, 2007 Report Share Posted November 12, 2007 How do you feel about the exact opposite?Not good, Not good at all. Why JC had Foster on from the start after Thursday's game is beyond me. Two full games and he rarely puts a pass on target! There was so much negatives from that game. When Steve Lovell came on i really started to appreciate the job that Lee Miller does, all his running, challanging etc, while Lovell done fuck all, lazy cunt!Ach weel, one bad game, however i cant see us getting anything from Celtic in 2 weeks time so we need to beat Hibs and the rest!! Just can't elp thinking all the other things i could have been doin yesterday, than sitting next to all the Hearts fans listening to their shite for 90 mins!!
