  1. Well that's just nonsense. Plenty examples of sport being used in a positive way in politics. During apartheid etc.
  2. I think Hearts would. They are the only other club comparable in size.
  3. There is but if they hypothetically gave you 50% to start, where do you start selling them? You can't sell the north and south at the same time or else you'd end up with 15,000 empty seats behind the goals.
  4. Probably all fair points. I'll add another in, Aberdeen have a very substantial minority of their support from the central belt. I could name half a dozen folk i know from Saltcoats/Ardrossan/Stevenston alone who go to more away games watching Aberdeen than they do at Pittodrie. I've never known a Hearts or Hibs fan from the same area. I'm pretty sure that's replicated across much of the central belt as when i was at Uni there were two Dons fans in my class and 1 was from Strathaven and one was from Clydebank! There can't be a semi final at a weekend in the last 40 years where the crowd has been as low. Not a dig, just an observation as we had similar numbers vs Celtic at Hampden in the league cup last year. Admittedly a lot closer but off a lot smaller fan base.
  5. I was surprised by how poor the Aberdeen attendance was tbf. Especially compared to Hearts.
  6. Last years was 530 to avoid the FA Cup final. Same thing will happen this year as no chance Sky will want a clash.
  7. There was a Euro 2020 specific app where our tickets were added to. Is there going to be similar for this summer?
  8. If the SNP get rid of the Green oddballs due to this then again it's some good news.
