Dons Team Want #SellOutSaturday Boost

Last updated : 10 August 2012 By Stand Free Ed

Craig Brown and his players have supported the campaign to massively boost the attendance for Saturday's first home game of the season against Ross County tomorrow.

Brown told RedWeb: "Nothing can beat the excitement of the first home game of the season and I am positive the fans will be there in their numbers to get a look at the summer signings and hoping for a good result so it is vital we don't let them down.

"The players will be doing their utmost to give the supporters something to cheer about to reward them for the unwavering loyalty they have shown towards the club, particularly this summer."

The Pittodrie attendance is predicted to smash the 15,000 barrier by kick-off tomorrow, which would be around double some of the home gates last season.

Dons vice-captain and last season's AFC Player of the Year Andrew Considine is also enthusiastic about the #SellOutSaturday initiative, and relishes the opportunity to play in front of a large vocal support.

He told RedWeb: "This is a fantastic initiative to encourage the supporters to pack out Pittodrie and all other SPL grounds as we kick off the 2012/2013 season.

"The support the Red Army continue to give us is unrivalled but it is crucial they really show their backing this season, not just for one game, but for the entire campaign, as it really has never been more important"

"I have been lucky enough to play in some great stadiums and in front of massive crowds but now is the time for fans to really make a noise and show their support."
