Aberdeen still to reach 10,000. Shows you how important additional investment is, as they have a much bigger budget than Hibs

You sense there is a lot of apathy creeping in at the dons possibly because of folk with too high expectations of past glories. It's strange that they lag so far behind the two Edinburgh teams in terms of crowds especially considering their far better league finishes in the last few seasons. They seem propped up by outside investment but it looks a risky strategy building a new stadium on the crowds they are getting. With the foh money at Hertz and our far better financial position I'd be worried if I was a dons fan for their future unless they just expect this outside investment to keep on continuing.
Not sure they are squad players. James and Jackson will both be pushing the current incumbents and newall,if he gets off to a flier with be pushing for a place. Certainly maybe not first picks but they have certainly strengthened the squad which is what we lacked in the second half of the season when Hecky barely used the so called squad players. They are players Hecky knows well and how to use them.
Sales for FF Lower look a lot lower than in previous years, as there's still nearly 20% of seats free.
I wonder if it's the new restrictions put in place... or just the increase in price that's made the difference.
Poor considering they are a one-city club with a solid catchment population of 500,000 (excluding Angus). Unfortunately for them, they are very much the victims of their previous success - their fans still think they are famous, so 3rd is all very "meh".
They will get a good bounce from their new stadium out at Kingswells, however having driven past it yesterday, it is miles away from Aberdeen city in the middle of a field with no train links etc. Think they will suffer in the long run with this decision.
So, Hibs confirm they have sold 12200 the other day, guess which other club then states they have sold 12500?
Hint - they reek of small man syndrome, play in a smaller stadium, and have smaller average crowds last season.........
There's a lot of single seats dotted about. End sections in east and west have plenty
