rabuddies reacted to div in SMISA meeting 6/9/21
I think there's an element of Kibble getting the blame for absolutely everything at the moment which is a bit unfair.
Gordon is still on the board, and John is a good guy to have at the helm and I've every confidence in the other SMiSA reps that are on the board.
This is the very start of fan ownership and whilst we're going through a rocky period it should eventually, hopefully settle down. An awful lot has changed at the club, very quickly, and that was always going to take time to settle in.
Personally I'm not massively happy about a number of things that have happened and the general comms have been abysmal but I think things like the new ticketing system will be an improvement going forward, Pitch Pro being on board is good news, and the new catering stuff looks like it might be a bit more expansive than we had before.
The strength of feeling was clearly evident tonight (I was not there but going by the transcript it's pretty clear) and hopefully that will give all parties food for thought and the follow on meeting in 4 weeks might be more positive.
A wee bit of calm wouldn't go amiss right now, IMO.

McGrath, who yesterday was worth about £250K plus two players, today is worth hee-haw. He'll probably sign a pre-contract with Aberdeen in January and be away then for buttons

So you have evidence of this? You are accusing a buiness of posting false accounts, a qualified external auditor of being complicit in this and calling their past Chairman a liar for statements he has made in the press. Why don't you go to the authorities with your information?

I wish that were so but apart from a rights issue when he took control of the club 25 years ago, neither the Brown family nor the family business have put any money into the running of the club. The additional revenue is from the non-football use of their ground and nothing else.

GS owned the club so he had full executive powers and the buck stopped with him. Who has stepped into his shoes? Who do SMISA members criticise now?

Not necessarily. John Glenn once said "As I hurtled through space, one thought kept crossing my mind - every part of this rocket was supplied by the lowest bidder".

This may have been referenced before but there is no obligation in the private sector to offer goods and services to tender. Compulsory competitive tendering only applies in the public sector, being introduced Thatcher in 1980. Essentially the club can negotiate with whosoever it likes. If shareholders don't like the way work is handed out that's what AGM's are for.

rabuddies got a reaction from ALBIONSAINT in Has the use of social media damaged education standards?
I think it's just adding to the mess made by successive governments. As I'm approaching my 7 score years I never went to nursery school. However, a bevy of aunties made sure I could read, count and tell the time before I went to school.
Nowadays, there are more people leaving primary school semi-illiterate than in my day.
The real problem with social media is its use by people who use it as tool to harm others. The mental health of children and teenagers is suffering in ways never seen before. Tracking down cyber bullies is way beyond the ken of most schools. Before social media bullies and morons stood out for most to see. Shut them down until they police their money grabbing sites properly.
Old git rant over. 🤬

Told you I was old - confusing it with "three scores years and ten". No excuse, but I was in a Brew Dog at the time of writing.🍺
