Just saw that 6882 people turned up for the Aberdeen v Motherwell game last night. The sheep get touted as the 4thteam in Scotland after old firm and diet huns. But when was the last time we got under 7000 for a league game??

Saturday 3pm you'd be looking at around 10K attendance.....shows you what weeknight football does.

And to think just a few months previously, we took 30,000 more than that to Hampden!

The OP's question was regard to League games. Can't blame people for not wanting to turn up for an easy cup tie against a lower league team.
Seriously though, nice to see the Paw Broon bubble burst and Hartley red carded - again.

Yes I was referring to LEAGUE games. Everyone has had terrible cup crowds.
Aberdeen have really fallen behind us and I don't see how they can recover unless crowds change bigtime.
We are at our lowest and still getting 10k plus every week.
Things with the cabbage aren't that bad. If we can get stable for a year a too and grow the youth again we should be in a very strong position in the SPL. Hearts can't keep spending this fake money forever. Rangers are in deep sh@te. So if we can just get past this spell.

Last night was a stick on for a poor crowd. The weather was horrendous, there was football on tv - unless you had a season ticket there wasn't much to tempt you along. Midweek games in winter months, early kick offs for tv etc are just killing the attendance levels all over. It's a sad state of affairs but I reckon the game is almost dead in Scotland.

I'd rather people in Aberdeen and it's surrounding areas turned up to Dons games and made them a stronger force in Scottish football. The alternative is a load of people up there supporting the old firm or adopting Manchester United or Chelsea as their club. That's not good for our game in general.

Plus they are going to possibly build a new 21,000 seater stadium and it is going to look absolutely ridiculous seeing a nice looking new stadium like that empty. But maybe another fact for such a low attendance was maybe most Aberdeen fans were thinking of staying at home or going to the pub to watch the Champions League game between Milan and Spurs. Also another one is look at the attendance of the Wigan game aginst Bolton last night? 7515? That nice 25,138 seater stadium always looks absolutely deserted and you really come to think and say. Are their more away fans than home fans at matchdays? As at times I have hardly ever seen the home end half full never mind a full house when the likes of United, Chelski, Spurs etc are in town.
