    I said it was a very bad idea to go backwards and elect a man whose remit was to just survive. Gilmour's day is done. I just hope there's a method to revisit this appointment, and real soon. Otherwise we really are going to regress quite quickly.

    I will let you find that out for yourself mate, im sure more will come out now…..Kenny docherty leaving after only 2 months, a certain someone is determined to drive a divide between Smisa and the board. 
     
    Sadly I seen this coming a while back when I 1st heard Gilmour was sniffing about.

    Alan Quinn away too. A lot of good people leaving because they dont want to work with Gilmour and his outsized ego

    I hadn't even noticed in that game. He must be making his way back if its been a fitness issue. I would also imagine if Brophy leaves in the next window, he may get his chance.

    There seems to be a lot of silence over Olusanya. Barely kicked a ball in the first team and no status on his fitness. He isn't even making the bench.

    The change in Erhahon this season has been great. He has been with the club for a long time now and might be best to get something for him in January than lose him for nothing at the end of the season. We have Gogic who can jump in as the anchor or Kiltie has played great the last few, where you change up the positioning of the middle 3 and have Kiltie behind the front 2.

    They may not be all monetary sales or at the same price the blue and green were paying, though we are now building up our fan base and improving on the park and the match day experience, so that people will come back again and again. At  a young age, a lot of kids are still unsure who they support if they are not regularly seeing 'their team' play in the flesh. 
    Imagine you were a young kid from Paisley or surrounding areas who has been influenced by either side of the green or blue, whether it be through family or being outnumbered at school, though turn up at these games and see us competing and winning these games, instead of being cannon fodder in a hostile environment.

    The match day experience in these games has been much better. I think it’s great seeing our support grow too. Having people shifted to accommodate them for more cash does t work for me. I’d take a player less in our squad and pay more to ensure this stays. We should never go back to filling the place to the point where it’s swarming with opposition fans leaving us feeling like the visitors in our home park. St Mirren park is our home and it’s become a good place for our team. Having the majority of the fans on these days has undoubtedly helped us

    This is a long term project with a short term loss imo. I for one have felt the match day atmosphere vs both Celtic & The Rangers to and from the game and in the ground watching the game a much more pleasant experience. Its felt a much safer environment that I would consider taking my kids to.
    It's evident on paper that our own support gates are up, whether that is at a lesser monetary value or not I'm not sure.
    That is worth it absolutely for me, to the alternative blue or green pound.
    We just need to follow through now with a higher league finish etc.

    Very good point made by Robbo. 
    If there is a handball from the fakes on the build up to the St. Mirren handball in the box, surely it has to be taken back from there and reviewed if its part of the attacking play? After all, that's how we got penalised a couple of weeks ago, when Baccus was alleged to have fouled the Dundee Utd player before Ayunga scored, resulting in goal chopped off.

    kevo_smfc reacted to djchapsticks in Possible Questions for the SMISA meeting   
    He stood in the student union the last day of the season in 2014 and told me and 4 others that there was a board meeting on Monday and he wanted Danny gone, not renewed.
    I told him he was bang out of order for discussing it so openly with supporters and also out of order for cutting a guy adrift who'd done a very decent job and he looked each of us in the eye and said we'd be moving on to bigger and better things. Less than a week later, Tommy Craig was in charge.
    Nah, his time in the sun has been and gone - no need to go back to the days of old. He served a purpose when the club needed him and over the piece, did so quite well. There's no need for him to be anywhere near SMFC now as anything other than a supporter.

    SGG the Boris Johnson of St Mirren. 
    Take £100k’s off SMISA then want to sit at the table for £12/month.  
    Brings some real context to the extent of bullshit rumours doing their rounds over the last few weeks.
    The audacity of this is incredible. Even his statement is having a “between the lines” kick at the Club, Kibble and SMISA. Better vote him as he knows best.
    The later years of his stewardship of the club were the most depressing times of being a fan of St Mirren. Sack Danny Lennon replace him with Craig, Teale, Murray then Rae. No fan engagement other than tell us we knew feck all and we needed a R**gers.

    It's a real shame as its is a unique facility within the community and houses many kids football run events, charitable causes and obviously like yourself, the repeat weekly booking slots. I think cheapest replacement would be to turn it into an outdoor 7s/8s pitch, though ideally a permanent indoor facility would be better.
    The upkeep on the dome due to the elements and this recent issue, must be costing the club not only on repairs, though weeks and weeks of bookings that wouod have already been in place.

    For what it’s worth, I rate Tait but think he won’t play every game. He gives everything he has. He covers a lot of ground in a game and will need to be “rested” now and then so a sound and at least as good, or better player added to the squad for that position can only be a good thing. If they are stronger in some of the “specifications” then good.

    Strain is beginning to show that he is a very good player indeed.

    Without knowing too much, I'd imagine the overspend as you have said was used to cover losses during lockdown with the loan. These loans have a 0% (I think) 20 year payback period
