But the point is there could have been more but you and Stewarty would rather have Celtic fans in there than fellow Dons. I'm cool with that but do find it amusing, regardless of whether or not they're "deserving" Celtic fans or "undeserving" dons like me.

im not after an argument btw, I just think that attitude is mental.

I agree they could've had more,but there is no guarantee we would sell them. 

We didn't sell out our last 2 semis or final,as much as I do actually hate it,this is just about us at full strength in the stands,people simply aren't interested if there's a (let's be honest 70/30) chance of winning the cup.

Hard to disagree.

As an aside, you do appear to take a 'wee' bit of pleasure in running the city / area & AFC down at any opportunity.

Why is that?

Well all I can tell you is that I grew up in Aberdeen, I call it my home town, it is the team I follow if any (support is too far). I have a lot of fond memories of and affection for the city. Always will.

Yet of late you are getting on my teats I admit. See the posts after your's for one example but that is only surface. I find the place politically insular and selfish.

Why is that?

(FFS get it together.)

It is funny how Aberdeen and Edinburgh look down their noses at Dundee and Glasgow when the 2014 vote showed it should have been the other way around all along. They think their shit does not stink. ;)

After winning last night, we'd definitely have sold them.

We were about 200 hundred away in the LC Final and that was with AFC having a stupid 1 ticket per account sales policy.

I pretty much agree. We'd have sold 21.5k tickets for our first Scottish Cup Final in 17 years though.

I assume that's tongue in cheek Deccie, if not what utter nonsense, what about the thousands of Dons fans who live down south or abroad so can't go every week for obvious reasons?

Am I any less of a St Mirren fan than those who go most weeks?

To get 2 tickets in the Aberdeen end you would have had to have been to 1 (one) game in the last 2 years... If you still managed to miss out then I have limited sympathy.

If anyone is aware of two spare Aberdeen end tickets, i'll take them off their hands.

Ideally and adult and child but would take two adult ones. 

Thanks

Someone just posted on AFC Stand Free on Facebook asking if anyone is looking for tickets. Maybe worth a message.

Cheers man. :ok: I'm sorted now. Person who was coming with me is now going with someone else, while my nephew is coming with me. Didn't want him to miss out :)

I personally could get through the day without having one. I don't see why we have them at all at football matches.

What positive purpose do they serve? None, but they do have the potential to be a negative. Not suggesting anyone would disrupt this particular silence on purpose but there's going to be loads of people still outside the ground when it's taking place. They're likely to still be making plenty of noise and if the camera picks it up then it lets all the halfwits on social media,who weren't at the game, post ill informed pish about what actually happen.

What good does that do anyone?
