As has been said above if you are signed in by a member you should be okay. Used to be away buses booked in but that was spoiled by certain types. Don't see many away fans but as long as they behave...no problems.

I remember that they used to be allowed in, but not been for a few years so hoping someone might know.

I remember the whole upstairs being packed with Aberdeen fans and really loved it with no problems at all but I heard just lately that no away fans allowed now. A big loss financially to the club if true.

The club is packed out every match day.

.... stopped due to 'problems' from what I was told.... always someone going to ruin it for others :-(

Saturday match days generally members only - regardless of who they support.

There was a table load of Dundee fans in earlier this season. Think it usually depends on how busy it is

I believe it was Dundee Utd "fans" that misbehaved causing the ban on letting out upstairs to away fans only. That and the closure of Behind the Goals also added extra numbers going, so upstairs became another lounge where kids are allowed.:thumbsup:

Kids are also allowed in the main hall downstairs

The semi-official position from the club is that it's okay if they attend as guests of a member. Is it likely that there will be more than 5 or 6? If so then it will need to be pre-approved by the club.

I understand there's ongoing discussions which I assume is to formalise the clubs position.

In general, a new committee has recently picked up the day to day management of the club and together with the appointment of a new bar manageress, there's been a dramatic improvement in the bar service at the club. Well worth a visit if people had been put off by long queues that were frustrating many members last year.

Defo an improvement in queue times but notice top lounge has been shut a few times. I know it is down to staff call offs so the guys /gals behind the bars are doing a great job.:thumbsup:

There was trouble some years ago with some Celtic fans in the club who assaulted a disabled Hibs fan IIRC.
