Pittodrie poised for family fun day

ABERDEEN fans unimpressed by the footballing fare displayed at Pittodrie so far this season should at least be able to enjoy a little entertainment at the stadium this weekend when the club hosts the Simmons Family Fun Day.

Before the home side take on Motherwell, sideshows will include stilt-walkers, balloon modellers and face painters, while mascots Angus the Bull and Si the Seagull will be posing for photos. Around 1,500 tickets have been gifted to young fans and their families to allow them to head along and enjoy the day.
