Well if they think that the folk who would go up to the restaurant and don't want to pay will simply queue in the cold, dark concourse instead they are mistaken IMHO.
I will take my beer inside me to games and they can balls...

Correct Brian, the concourse is not so bad for the games in the summer when the temperature is something like but for most of the time its cold, unwelcoming and the queues are too daft to laugh at when you consider they serve up pish for beer and the food is shocking.

The disconnect with the club is growing ever wider, they can dress it up all they like but there is no way we are spending an extra tenner a game to watch the the club hierarchy stuff themselves with free snap and drink.

They are on borrowed time...
The club either delivers or they are spiralling into the very antithesis of what they purport to aspire to.
I can only see mediocrity continuing.

Most people on there are against this too. This group are exactly the same as that group and choose to get angry about the minority that doesn't agree with them rather than seeing that majority aren't at the extremes and actually wanting to talk about stuff.

The difference is, a tiny amount of Facebook users get angry about the few they deem to be too negative; and the people on here get angry about the few they deem to be too positive.

Same moan, different angle

We've had 7 grim seasons in the bottom division yet the fleecebookers jump on anyone who's negative! How can any fan who wants us to be the best we can accept this without a whimper? The 'at least we have a club' spiel doesn't wash with me, we have an hardcore group who would rather blame rightly negative fans than seek or want change from a terrible bunch of people at the top of club disaster! If you accept mediocrity you will get mediocrity.

Re: Restaurant Access : Sat Jan 14, 2023 6:50 pm  
This does leave a bad taste in the mouth sadly - this comment its purely driving to upsell the "restaurant" package especially for those with young un's who'd like to meet the players. Did they learn nothing from the End of Year awards affair.

"Post-game the players and coaching staff from both teams will be in attendance mingling with supporters. The player of the match and sponsor presentations will also take place in the Restaurant approximately 30 minutes after the final whistle. "

I could almost understand the upcharge if we'd significantly invested in some top quality players, but we ain't we've dragged some out of retirement and signed a trouble maker - we've signed 2nd row forwards an area we were always well covered in, not really added any forward beef, and our backs and halves look very thin on the ground.

I am awaiting the "per sheet" pricing for bog roll next!

Again, it's a few that do that, you're generalising everyone on there by the actions of the minority. Same as how this board is generalised the other way round. Either way it's now an argument about who has a right to have what opinion, which is being stamped down on on Facebook

Was thinking about Gary and Scott who used to sit in there to watch games.
And I would go up there at half time and have a pint and a word.
But now it's £25 a season or £5 a game depending if you have a season ticket.
Really!
The Dons deserve to fail...

As I said to you when we bumped in to each other in the Gatehouse (a couple of months ago) and I likened it to when I retired, I genuinely miss some of the people but not the rest of what comes with following the Dons.

I doubt Gary and Scott are going to be won over to return to support the club given this.

I won't speak for Scott but it's extremely unlikely I will ever buy a season ticket again.

I did take in one game last season and may do the same again this season but I don't see anything currently which will make me change the decision made during the 2021 season.

Wish I was strong willed...the number of times I have said enough is enough, then still continued to go.
But it is usually because I think we aren't good enough...
Lately it has been the management that is disappointing me and the Rover's control over the Dons.
Last chance saloon for them this season...I am partly weaned off the Dons anyway, so it won't take much.
I don't go to away games anymore and what with holidays and the caravan, I only watch about half a dozen games a season.
