    buddiecat got a reaction from oaksoft in Why has the Director of Football failed?   
    The chairman and the board member are embarassing with their current conduct. Offering to fight with a supporter should be a sackable offence and stating that the proceeds (though god knows who would pay to watch) would go to charity - that being the St Mirren charitable trust.
    Just give money to the trust and don't bother with a fight.
    That charitable trust is very handy though, it's just the right type of trust that could take over from SMiSA if everything goes wrong. I believe they could take control of the SMiSA funds and run the club without input from SMiSA members.

    If no one else is interested, I'll be having a chat with a few of my SMISA member mates and the wife will be getting told she is moving back to Scotland sooner. [emoji16][emoji1787]

    buddiecat got a reaction from Lord Pityme in How Much have we payed off on?   
    Sadly I don't see the early payoff regime ending in the near future, i think we are in the money-go-round fraternity, where almost everyone involved gets a cut of the deal in one way or another.

    Just like the reported "glitch" with the ticketing website which the club apologised to season ticket holders for. The glitch meant anyone could buy any seat in the stadium for the play off game at one point, the one where all the padded seats in front of hospitality were snapped up straight away, then on matchday were filled with punters from hospitality, was there no way of knowing who bought what and sorting that situation ? i believe there could have been a way.

    What i'll say is, i hope we have Jim Goodwin on a watertight contract which has a performance related clause in it. I doubt we have the finances to have to pay compensation to a failed manager and also have enough to pay good players,if he does fail that is.
    Washing your dirty linen in public is not a good thing. We have rightly got rid of managers who were not up to the job and in the case of Ross one who wanted to go to better himself, losing a manager who helped turn our season round was not good, and it seems a mixture of blame can land in both camps here, Kearney seemingly having left his options open to return to his previous job and football career and deciding to do just that by way of asking for more frequent travel home which he likely knew we could never allow and us having such a piss poor contract with him that allowed such negotiations to start.

    Because GLS only took over the shares to protect his original investment and guarantee a return on shares which were potentially worthless and actually shouldn't be anywhere near running a football club?

    That walloper from the board is a very real danger - he's responsible for the family stand being sold to OF scum without consulting the ST holders who sat there, also responsible for the barcode strip and the limited access fans bar. I suspect he is also responsible for the seat allocation at the last game - funny how all the seats (usually occupied by ST holders) near the hospitality suite were the first to be snapped up when a "glitch" on the ticketing site meant anyone could buy any seat they wanted, but "luckily" it meant more money could be made from selling hospitality packages, somebody reserved all those seats as soon as they went on sale. He will trample over anyone if he thinks he can make a quick buck.
