Dons fans are being urged to dig deep to create a crowd display which will inspire their team to victory in the Scottish Cup Final at Hampden later this month.
Fans have already donated £1,300 to the fundraising effort – just over half way to the target of £2,500 needed to buy all the materials before the match on May 27.
Depending on the amount they donate, fans will have the chance to win prizes as a reward for their generosity, including specially-commissioned badges, signed memorabilia and limited edition prints.
Matt Coull of the Red Army Display Team, said: “The fans have shown in the past that they are willing to bring these displays to life with both their time and money.
“Some displays will live long in the memory and it is a collective effort that makes it all possible.
“Fans have given very generously for previous displays and this time we would like to repay their support by putting these rewards up for grabs.
“All donations will be very welcome.”
The first display laid on by the group of Dons fans was ahead of a game against Rangers at Pittodrie in 1999.
One of the most memorable was when the display team put out 20,000 red and white cards for fans to hold up ahead of the 2014 League Cup final at Celtic Park.
The cards cost £4,000 and it took many hours for the team of volunteers to lay them out on the individual seats the night before the game.
The display team has also created displays in tribute to Dons fans and former players who have passed away.
Leading Aberdeen fans’ group, Dons Supporters Together (DST), is supporting the campaign.
Chairman Kevin Mackenzie said: “These displays really capture the supporters’ imaginations and they have provided so many memorable moments and iconic images in recent times.
“It is something that really brings fans together and we are very willing to put our resources into backing the display team.
“It’s a great cause so we would encourage the fans to get involved by making their donations and by spreading the word to other Reds.”
