We are having a few beers pre match in the 1877 thus contributing to the clubs coffers, does that make my Dons pal a Saints supporter ?

My take is straightforward .. fans interest level can vary...e.g. not all fans are on the Forum. Doesn't matter. Fans who respond to their interest and use their available financial resources to purchase services which build the revenue and infrastructure of the club are also supporters. Doesn't make them in any way superior. The club is seeking to grow the fan Base knowing that this will translate into more revenue when growing numbers of these become active supporters. Clearly there will be a number of fans who for personal reasons don't or can't make the change to contributing revenue to the club. Doesn't make them less of a Fan. You are trying to discretise something which is a continuum and you are tying yourself in knots as a result. That is the fundamental flaw in your argument right there. Not everything needs a label.

Certainly not.....pointing out that this is how the mechanism operates. When the growth in fan Base happens there is a delay in conversion to monetisation unless something exceptional happens...like winning a league or cup or making "marquee" signings. The system also works in reverse. At present we have more customers including opposition fans and friends of St Mirren Fans . At least one of mine has bought a season ticket.
