WeeBud got a reaction from BuddieinEK in Stealing from the club
I would guess the suggestion being that the club put on a PPV offering within the rules and guidelines of SPFL and which makes the club money, his mate is watching it and paying nothing to the club for the service.

I really hope you never got a lift over the turnstiles at anytime. [emoji1787] -

No judging on my part FS but there are a number of domestic games each club can show on PPV platform the last couple of seasons, it may even be something as simple as any game not on a Saturday at 15:00. There is no question that anyone watching these games on their Firestick, Dongle or whatever are denying their own club revenue much in the same way as fare-dodgers on Scotrail do for example...."theft" may be too strong a word right enough.

I would suggest the vast majority of these PPV games are for overseas viewers and there are still supporters who do pay for this service.
His particular mate has, on the surface, decided, for whatever reason, he's not for attending and is accessing this service the only way he can as viewers on Scotland are not included in these games.
He will probably be watching on other clubs TV services into the bargain.
While I acknowledge there is a loss, but not stealing, the attendances are as good as they have been and the losses are Insignificant.

Supporters of every team think the exact same thing about their team. I think it's a case of only remembering the good or bad results and forgetting the expected, "mundane", run-of-the-mill ones. -

That's a shame to hear.
Hopefully money will filter into local businesses from the increased Waterfront activity.
Totally agree about the Beacon. I've been to a number of gigs in there and it is a fabulous resource.

Sounds like a good night BinEK.....With regards to the regeneration of Greenock, I live and work in Inverclyde, Scotts has been a welcome addition to the area but we'll see how it does longer term as Greenock hasn't been great at supporting it's restaurants this last ten years or so. The regeneration, good as it's been, pretty well stops at the Waterfront and is a bit of a gripe for the local citizens as the money has been spent for the Cruise Ship Tourists and not the locals (not my gripe I hasten to add). The Beacon, which I like, cost a fortune and loses money year on year which is a pity as it's a fantastic facility. Beyond that Greenock is in a pretty sorry state I'm afraid until you get through to the West End and into Gourock.

There's similar thought's about Dundee. Most of the money/publicly on the waterfront area.
More massive investment on the way with a version of the Eden Project.
Locals maintain the money could be better spent elsewhere.
It's a reoccurring debate.

WeeBud reacted to FTOF in St Mirren v Ross County SPFL PREMIERSHIP 9/12/23
Nonsense.
Much like yesterday's ref.
Completely out of his depth.
Maybe when you defend officials, you shouldn't build your case on straw like foundations.
Although whoever decided that the officials that presided over yesterday's game were ready for a top flight match is the main culprit here.
Was it you perchance? Might explain your comments on the matter.
If you don't have to comment on a referee's performance, then you know he's had a relatively decent game. I very rarely comment on referee's performances, but I do call out statements on ref's which are clearly a pile of steaming dung, like yours.

Not sure why you’re just having a go at @FTOF mate. You are very much a lone voice on this one and I’m going to add my name to the list of dissenters. The ref wasn’t just bad, he was absolutely abysmal. If you are happy with that standard then you’re easily pleased.

We’ve just booked one for our Euro 24 adventure picking it up in Stuttgart on 13th June and dropping back off on 25th June (although hopefully have to extend the hire), It’s an Esprit I 7150-2 DBM

Last Saturday was Adriana Spina in the Georgian Hotel with her first headline gig there after several support slots. Great night.
Last night was insane.
Former frontman of The Grim Northern Social, Ewan MacFarlane blew the roof off the same venue with a high octane two hour set that captivated the capacity crowd from start to finish.

WeeBud reacted to TPAFKA Jersey 2 in Welcome Connor
I’m not sure what you mean by wrong side.
We play him on the right which could be considered the “wrong” side for a left footed player, but that is exactly where he’s played in most of his NI appearances and where he played with Glentoran. We also know that it is common for left footed players to play on the right and vice versa.
As for the Denmark game, he played on the left, but only played for 12 minutes, so despite getting a good assist I’m struggling to see how he could’ve achieved “great acclaim”.
Either way, on Wednesday night he played on both the right and the left for us and was equally shite in both positions.

What was worse was that when Flynn got injured Robinson was screaming at him to get in quickly and stripped, McMenamin just strolled towards the dugout which resulted in more screaming from Robinson.....he then half-jogged and half-walked his way up the touchline looking like he couldn't be arsed.
