Numerous changes resulting in a 3v1 away win in a group game yet the usual suspects are moaning like hell. Get a grip ffs.

Jim has just publicly came out off the back of McAllisters link to St Johnstone and said he's an important player, though he doesn't fit his system. If there is genuine interest in Erwin, I cant see the club standing in his way. We could get by on what we have, if we never had a replacement in before the window closes. McGrath from what I believe is, he is happy to see out his contract, though if an offer comes in of his valuation and both parties are happy with the move, he will go before the window closes. Ideally if he is going to go, it happens soon so we can find a replacement, or at least use some of the cash to strengthen elsewhere too. I've seen earlier talk about Erhahon. He is very highly rated at the club and the club won't entertain anything below 7 figures in my opinion. 2 years left on his contract, has a few minor flaws to his game yes, though a very intelligent passer of the ball for his age. Ethan is the type of player we should be trying to get an extension by a year at least to protect his valuation.

Camera man been on the swally.

Camera man is a f**kin rocket

It is about ownership of the data. If St. Mirren didn’t write that into the contract that we own the data and get it as part of the contract exit strategy then there is nothing surprising that the supplier is not playing ball. The onus is on the club. In some ways similar to the fact that Skyview were seemingly able to leave us high and dry at a moments notice. Sadly, despite the PR statements that we are a professionally run outfit with experts on board, the reality is that we seem to be all over the place. A complete lack of contract management seems to be just another area where we are letting ourselves down. We’ve never replaced Brian Caldwell as a professional Chief Exec to run the football club. Tony Fitz has been put in as a figurehead for good PR and to let GLS, Kibble and whoever else make the decisions in the background without someone having proper business and commercial focus on the job full time. The club and the fans suffer the consequences.

I also see him as a number 10 these days as opposed to a winger as he has lost a bit of pace and also he has the ability to see, and execute, high tariff passes hence being highest assister for goals last season. Better to be central to use that ability to it’s maximum. He needs to add a greater consistency to his game and we have a ready made replacement for Jamie albeit very different in styles and the other two in midfield would have to be adapted to suit.

Apparently its just the details you used to register to log in just got a reply from Jamie Swinney Chief Exec of Stenny as i was unsure also. Thanks for purchasing the game tonight. All you need to do is login using the details you registered with.

The problem here is that for whatever reason the Club did not have any details of its customer base. The ticket company had the details. That alone beggars belief. In summary the club issued a plea to their customers. Please contact the club and tell us where you used to sit because we don’t have a clue.

Commentators may be pish but they have Ethan as our best player so far, all about opinions , don't think he has done much wrong so far unlike many others

Great seeing fans at games again. Northbank in good voice behind the goal.

Brian Caldwell is singularly a bigger miss to this club than any individual player who moved on in the last decade!

The one true God

If you look at the stats we've actually lost two of our top three "assisters", in Connolly and Durmus. Keeping McAllister seems a sensible option. Although Power (3) and Kiltie (2) were in Killie's top five. Most assists St Mirren Scottish Premiership 20/21 (statbunker.com)

I am still waiting on someone getting back to me to allow me to pay my season ticket despite registering 2 weeks ago ,no contact from club at all. Been season ticket holder for 43 years ,its a disgrace. Where the SLO in this ?

3-1. Happy with that. I’m not sure what the issue is. We scraped past Queens Park last season, these teams raise their game and we barely left second gear. good to see Erwin on the score sheet, he had a lot of critics - including me but ended season well. brophy - yet to see anything of real quality…

Not great fare, but a win is a win. And goals by 3 strikers - amazing! Unlike some others on here, I thought Erhahon played very well up until the last 15 mins, and that's because he moved position when Power came on.

Henderson looking lively again tonight, great little player

Our lack of pace in the team is very evident now as well.

Madness ^^^ been our best player IMO.

Ethan thinks he is a lot better than he actually is, will be delighted if we manage to sell him this window as we can do better.

This is the first time I’ve been to stenhousemuir’s ground 😃

Just a pity they brought flares with them, not something the club should be happy with, Bad start from the guys

I heard on the radio on the way home that an astonishing 55% of under 30's in Dundee have failed to turn up for their vaccination. Other "major cities" are around 40%. Have I mentioned these "people" are fcukwits? If I needed any vindication making a polite request to the young chap on the train on Friday, this is it.

I have checked back on my e-mails and I got an acknowledgment from the club when I registered and a receipt after I paid............so I am assuming that I simply log back in and it will let me in so to speak, hopefully.

The last part of what you wrote tells another story quite a high number of people have tried to renew using the link provided but again because apparently the club doesn't have our details you cannot log in to purchase as the system doesn't recognise you.

Indeed. There will be occasions where we might need to tweak the system. McAllister gives us an option to do that. Whether or not he's happy to stay under these circumstances is another matter.

Fear not, apparently we shouldn’t worry about these things or let it bother us as season hasn’t started, don’t expect a strip either as the online shop is offline… Club must be flush already?

That excuse imo was St Mirren passing the buck as surely the club had every season ticket holders details too along with old ticket company so transferring the info could and should have been simple. Tony didn't help as usual with his "statement" regarding we have listened to fans this new company will sort out historic ticket problems for the season ahead only for it to go pear shaped almost immediately.

Agree with every word of that, well put

Fcuk sake this is a football forum can we keep it to football chat all this childish name calling and other shit can the administrator just ban this shit its page after page of utter horse shit either that or get a fcukin room or boxing ring just give it a rest

@Ayrshire Saints Quickly, bring me a net. [emoji23]

3 goals, 3 points and top of our group, not great but always felt we were in control

Job done but hopefully we'll see a much improved performance on Sunday against Thistle.

Could be worse - we could be Killie.

Another striker scores …. It’s all good

That's f**king terrible.

Main with the goal.

Very difficult watch that. I know you don’t often get masterclasses at this point of the season but still… hard. Yet again someone needs to reign in Macpherson for the spectacular.

This is dreadful, our midfield are non existent especially in the middle of the park.

Much prefer tonight's 'away' strip to last week's 'home' strip.

The home strip looks good with stripes on the back. Just need a release date now end of july and still nothing. The change of sponsorship cant be used as an excuse it is the same every single season

16th June... I email the club re 2 season tickets. 17th July I finally get a nice and apologetic reply. I was asked what time Tuesday (today) suited me as someone from.tge ticket office would call me. I replied with a large time window and my mobile number. Would it surprise anyone to hear that I'm still waiting for a call that I said would be best before 1.30pm? [emoji50][emoji850][emoji26]

It’s like a wee holiday getting a break from him!!

So even the new firm are not set up well enough to deal with the registration of new data?! Issues here are: the club dont have the data that shows where current season ticket holders sit in their stadium to do anything with that information for a renewal process. They didn't get the data from the old ticketing provider to be able to have the information to pass it to the new provider. The registration with the new provider has not worked at all for whatever reason. I get it the club are working through it all, but everything I find and read says the general sale was moved from 13th to 20th. See if there were issues, you come out again and move it. Publicly you make a statement to reassure fans renewing and new. This doesn't take a long time to put out there... But there has been f**k all from the club today apart from a repost about the first away day in social media. What an absolute joke that is. I used to be a season ticket holder for years. Gave up due to my son being born and not able to justify the Saturdays away after working in the week. My son now wants to attend. Asks every day about getting a ticket. My brother and I chomping at the bit to get him into it. Having a boys day and I have sat all day checking the site, social media... And nothing. Not at single thing. Communication is key and the lack of it is deflating.

Not really being thrown under a bus, it’s just goody prefers 3 and the back with 2 wing backs, mcallister is not a wing back, so he does not fit into the system, good choice from the bench though

Hoping to build on our bright start. Team looking decent so far.

Thankfully, we seem to have a brilliant squad of players and I am looking forward to a great Season.

People have short memories. Last season's ticket roll out and strip release was marketed slickly and with a great deal of publicity. That was down to The Kibble's involvement. I'm sure TF or GS mentioned as much in their updates. This season for whatever reason, the season ticket company was changed at the last minute. I'm sure that wasn't remotely helpful. However, yet again, it has been proven that the team involved with season tickets is simply too small to deal with glitches. Even though this year's events were probably exacerbated by the fact that season ticket holders had to populate a new data base. That was never going to go well. The club should have been more proactive regarding keeping people who were experiencing problems with season tickets. The strips debacle was not of the club's making. It's quite clear that the strips had been ready to roll out with "Skyview" on them, as evidenced by the "black bin bag" look on the away strips v Linfield and also by the absence of the stripes in any of our games so far. Obviously Joma have had to change their plans. Not much the club could do about this. Although, again, the lack of info from the club on this matter is annoying to some. Also, the club shop, which is another thing in transition, can hardly sell or take pre-orders of strips without Joma providing concrete evidence of strip production, delivery etc. There are definitely glaring faults with aspects of the strip/season ticket this season, but not much The Kibble could do about it IMO.

Brophy scored a couple pre-season. Now getting slated because he didn't score in the one competitive game we've played. The guy was injured when he joined us, but started to show some form at the end of last season. Come on, let's give him a chance to show his ability. Tuesday night v Stenny might be just the game to get him off the mark.
