DumboBud

For all we lost today Falkirk are by far the worst team I’ve seen this season.

Maybe people posting on here that matches are a sell out before the game when they aren’t has put people off trying to get tickets.

I need to declare I didn’t join buy the buds before I make any post, but there is something that is really confusing me just now. The statements that if this proposal isn’t funded by the £10 ring fenced money initially then the club budget for the year will be hit for £50k. If the proposal was for the £2 discretionary income to be used for several quarter then that would get over the ring fenced argument. The club are about to get a wad of ST money in to do it through the year, the players and staff will be payed weekly or monthly and bills will come in throughout the year so why is there a need to get the 50k in a lump sum? Why isn’t the proposal for the next 4 and a bit quarterly funds to directly fund the pitch? If the club do really need this 50k lump sum now then I do really question the stewardship of the board. In addition if there is the need for this money should SMISA not be looking to further its community aims and squeeze a bit more of the community benefit out of the club. Please remember SMISA and the club are still two separate entities at the moment and it is incumbent on the office holders, including those that are also on the board to act within the rules, regulations, constitution etc of SMISA . I reserved judgement on joining buy the buds waiting to see if it was going to become the bowling club committee that I feared, unfortunately I’m not seeing anything to allay my fears.

Will you stop posting this kind of rubbish when you don’t actually know for sure. This type of misinformation is stopping some people from trying to get tickets on the mistaken belief that there aren’t any left. I accept that the forum is generally about opinions but something factual like whether or not a game is sold out yet should not be a matter for speculation.

The family stand was split without segregation earlier this season for the cup game against Livi. So shouldn’t be a problem for this game.

I’ve been around Bowling Club committees often enough to know that in this situation a dictatorship is infinitely preferable to a democracy.

And this is the reason I haven’t joined SMISA. It will go pear shaped.

Not when you posted this, I bought two tickets with seats together at lunchtime today. If anyone is still looking for tickets I’d contact the ticket office there may still be some left.

Just bought two tickets for the West Stand v Morton. No problem, sitting together too. I think there is a bit of misinformation going about.

Thanks for sorting this, everything worked out perfectly (except Livi!) A good day out.

Gotta feel sorry for Dumbarton, playing in the fizzy cup final and getting a player called up. Also good news Ryan Hardie getting a call and not able to play for Livi, or does he only play well against us.

The remaining Livi United game is due on the last weekend of the season, so if we are relying on it we have really stuffed things up.

Outlines at the Art Centre cancelled tonight, hope they can rearrange they were stunning when I saw them before. Knowing my luck it will be rearranged to coincide with the United game again.

For a club that has just won a family friendly award to consider giving up the family stand for the bigot brothers visits would be a massive own goal.

I agree that having enough seats available wasn’t going to be a problem for Brechin, but the sooner they get it sorted the better do that when glory hunters/ friends and family start coming out the woodwork we are able to take their money off them. I cant understand the issue with the banners and the apparent shifting of the rules/ agreement the club need to be consistent.
