Wilbur got a reaction from eastlandssaint in Wee Clueless
This thread ???
'Thinks' .............................. Lunatics and Asylum.
Lennon and MacPherson were incompetents and both of them deserved to be relieved of their duties at SMP.
The members of our current Board, several of whom courageously stepped forward in St Mirren's hour of need (effectively our hour of potential obliteration), and saved us from extinction by the asset stripper Reg Brearley should forever deserve our thanks. Thank you !!!
But since then this Board's record in appointing team managers has been unforgivably bad. Perhaps the short-term success we witnessed under Tom Hendrie 15 years ago would could be regarded as the sole exception but even Tom's time in charge imploded in the end. Even the amazing league cup success in 2013 under DL turned out to be a false dawn, nothing but a flash in the pan.
Ultimately this Board's strategy in selecting replacement managers has been flawed and the loyal St Mirren fans have suffered the consequences of their penny-pinching short-sightedness. Now that Ian Murray has (honourably) quit his post the BoD must get their act together and appoint the right person in the hot seat regardless of the short-term cost. Too much consideration of "well let's take the easy / cheap option as we will be selling up soon" has gone into the appointment of managers in the past. The cheapest option has been the preferred option every time.
So, moving forward, NOT ALEX MILLAR !!!!
The BoD have to wake up and think adventurously. They have to spend whatever is necessary to bring in the right person otherwise our spiral down the league structure will continue.
NOT THE CHEAPEST OPTION !!!

Wilbur reacted to Drew in Wee Clueless
Miller has apparently distanced himself from the job on an ongoing basis.
He will be unveiled on Monday!

Wilbur got a reaction from Lord Pityme in Latest Accounts To May 2015
The fundamental problem with analysing company accounts (whether St Mirren's or any other limited company / plc) is that we are reviewing history when we should really be interested in the situation as at the present day. St Mirren's financial results for the year to May are based on the club's presence in the Premiership. Now that we are dumped into the Championship for the next 12 months and will be there (or worse) for another 12 months at least I fear that the club's "zero debt" status is likely to be blown out of the sea.
Worrying times ahead IMO.
Compounded by the BoD still not having grown the cahones to fire Ian Murray whose record in charge makes many of us hanker back to the glorious days of Tommy Craig's era.

I suggest you avoid Falkirk if you want to see the game. Try Grangemouth.

Wilbur got a reaction from TC7 in St Mirren V Sevco Internationale 25/10/2015
Yes, because we are ripping off the supporters of the blue vermin and as a consequence our Board must increase the price of tickets at the home end to prevent the stinky vermin supporters infiltrating the St Mirren section. What is your point ? (as if I care). It is a fact that St Miirren's corporate hospitality packages are set out in 3 groups with different price ranges, A, B & C, depending on the opposition. This is a consequence of a phenomenon called Supply & Demand (try Google, select basic Economics). This phenomenon explains why a pound (or kilogram) of steak will be more expensive than a pound of dog shit. Board 1, you 0.

Shull, it would crazy not to rip-off the blue vermin.
Our non-season ticket holders should stay at home and watch on tv. But let's rip the arse out of the vermin.
