Dundee FC’s successful end of the season is less than two weeks old but already anticipation is building for next season in the Premiership after Dundee were promoted as Champions. The club has already starting planning for the top tier and have announced their season ticket prices for 2014/15 and Dark Blue supporters can help the club plan and build for the immediate future and show their support by purchasing their season tickets early.
The 2014/15 Season Tickets look to be incredibly good value with not only Premiership football on offer, but also SPFL Under 20 league games at Dens, priority for away game ticket purchase, a guaranteed seat at Dens, a monthly season ticket draw and a leisure package worth over £1500!
To encourage supporters to buy their tickets as soon as possible, the club has introduced an Early Bird Discount with children’s prices starting at £18, Student and Senior tickets from £150 and adults starting £300 – less than £18 a game – if purchased before June 7th.
To reward the loyal supporters who bought season tickets for the Championship season, adult early bird renewals have a £20 discount with student and senior renewals receiving a £10 discount to further add to the superb value that Dundee Football Club are offering.
The full 2014/15 season ticket price list therefore is as follows:
Adult Early Bird Renewal £300 (After June 7th £340)
Adult Early Bird £320 (After June 7th £340)
Senior (Over 65)/Student Early Bird Renewal £150 (After June 7th £170)
Senior (Over 65)/Student Early Bird £160 (After June 7th £170)
Under 16 Early Bird £99 (After June 7th £109)
Under 12 (Must be purchased with an adult ticket) £18
The Club is also establishing a new family section in the Bobby Cox Stand with many planned attractions throughout the season for kids, while the club has promised that the season ticket monthly draw prizes will be the best ever on offer. The Leisure partners will also be announced shortly giving DFC season ticket holders a huge range of benefits on top of the matchday experience.
On top of all this, season ticket holders will enjoy a discounted ticket rate for the exciting forthcoming pre-season friendly against English Premier League Champions Manchester City on July 13th and will be given first opportunity to buy briefs for this much anticipated, star studded glamour match.
Dens Park will host a number of all-ticket SPFL Premiership games next season including against reigning champions Celtic and derbies against Dundee United and purchasing a season ticket guarantees fans a seat at these matches. The demand for these matches is sure to be huge so buying a season ticket makes it stress and hassle free for getting to these games and ensures that you see all the action live.
Dundee have already announced the acquisition of two new signings for next season; namely Greg Stewart and Phillip Roberts and purchasing a season ticket early will allow the board to set as high a budget as possible for manager Paul Hartley as he looks to build a squad capable of making an impact in the Scottish Premiership.
Hartley told the DFC official website that “the best way to ensure we stay and thrive in the Premiership is for the club to sell as many Season Tickets as possible. Our season ticket cash gives the Board the confidence and me the opportunity to look at a wider range of players at a higher level to build the strongest squad possible for Dundee Football Club”.
The Dundee FC Supporters’ Society would therefore urge every Dundee supporter who can afford it to buy their season ticket as soon as possible and take advantage of the early bird discounts on offer before June 7th. If at least half the Dees who were at the Championship winning match against Dumbarton buy a season ticket, it would give the manager a big head start in his preparations and as he has already pointed out “last Saturday proves what we can achieve when we are together and I look forward to many days just like that next season".
Let’s therefore back the manager, back the club, buy our season tickets and make sure Dens Park is rocking at every home game next year.
