I've no experience of a fanzone in Scotland whatsoever. Have there ever been any? What about abroad? Are these prices really high compared to a fanzone in other countries?

I've just bought our usual seats for the first game in the Norrie. I'm really looking forward to it. I can't afford to go to Germany so want to do something different from the usual pub or man-cave type thing. If it's ****e I'll give it a miss for the other games.

I can't remember ever being or hearing of a fan zone in Scotland. 

Been to one in Switzerland. Was free during the 2010 World cup. 

Portugal had free fan zones during 2018 as well when I was there. 

Will be in the two in Cologne during June, also free to get in. 

Happy to see the club try this out but I would have thought a tenner a head would have been fine, but if they make a bit of cash from it then it's a success.

Pricy stuff. Will probably be chilly late on too, wonder if Stagecoach are going to put on extra buses from Dunfermline after the games?

Indeed!

They should do this during Pars games sometimes.

Deserved. 

It's going to take ab incredible run of form to do it. But we're capable. I think after our horrific run with injuries, if we miss out narrowly it's a successful season still.

I just can't see us winning 4 on the bounce. Thistle are still a decent team, I reckon 1-1. 

It's quite a depressing area.

Who is the most successful lifelong pars fan in football, particularly more modern day?

Stevie Crawford?

Given that Morton absolutely murdered us 5-0 at EEP only a few weeks ago  I hope JMP is at least giving some consideration to them.

Aye but I'm not the manager and enjoying some Italian beer for a wee bit today so fck em!

Not worried in the slightest who they have available, we're going to slap them around.

What is Dalrada?

If you're a ST holder then surely you don't give a monkeys as you just want the club to maximise the crowd numbers?

They're obviously keeping it close at hand. Not sure if to stop rival clubs getting a sniff inside or to avoid further explanations or scrutiny.

MFW had played the week previously!

It always impresses me when folk remember this stuff in detail, I can barely remember what the score was three weeks ago.

Until recently I would suggest that wouldn't be such a bad thing. 

Gate splitting is something I've advocated for years in Scotland. Even if it's 90/10, it's about cash flow to ALL clubs. This might be competition but we need all our clubs to be a healthy part of that. 

Gonna pump them 3 nil here. We're on a roll now.

Aye that crowd was sub 5000 I reckon.

Good feeling returning towards the end of the season now, unless I'm steaming in prematurely. Bodes well for next season.

Erm, let's fight to stay up. Ayr doing the business v ICT just now, although some might prefer a draw. A 4 point gap between us just now. Get a 7 point space and they are some other teams problem. Great result and performance last night, lets no get carried away just yet and ma glass is always overflowing.

We're going up, baby!

Sneaking into 4th and dumping Aberdeen into the championship in th play off final? My word I felt a twinge in my groin.

Superb stuff tonight. Could easily have let them back into it but we did well across the park.

Feeling much more optimistic about avoiding 9th after that.

That's great to hear. That no matter how bad things are, they're still engaging with the kids. 

I mind when Hamish and Big Toddy came to our Primary all those years ago to sign some stuff, was the best school day ever. Except for that time we found a jazz mag.
