Stu Posted September 23, 2016 Report Share Posted September 23, 2016 3 hours ago, div said: Problem with salaries is that they are recurring costs. Again I don't think this is really what the SMISA money is going to go on, it will be one off expenses, IMHO!! As Stuart said, you'd hope there would be early signs of them paying for themselves (especially if it was in the commercial side of the club). They could be initially given a six month fixed term contract to start with and if they don't seem to be delivering the expected returns they're either replaced or the idea is abandoned.

Yes fair enough bud. Either way at some point the club has to start growing again, and to do that we are going to have to speculate somewhere along the line.

Yeah, and I hope the new board is a bit more willing to invest on that front when it comes to off the park matters. For example, the idea of commentary was mooted years ago but was rejected because the equipment would have cost money, even though that would have been recouped relatively quickly. Hope folk appreciate that while a new website (which is long over due) will make it easier to find the information that is currently produced, there won't be much more new stuff unless more people are brought in - something I could do with my own work realising too!

div Posted September 24, 2016 Report Share Posted September 24, 2016 Ah, the old messageboard's domain name. What's wrong with SaintMirren.net? Nothing wrong with it but do you ever really see the club written down as Saint Mirren? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobbyLavatory Posted September 24, 2016 Report Share Posted September 24, 2016 What we could really do with is selling a player for proper money. I'm still holding out hope that John McGinn could be that man. If Hibs sold him for £3m we'd be entitled to £1m of that. Just think of the difference money like that could make. From what I heard over the summer it will be the now-departed consortium who will trouser that cash if or when McGinn is sold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how that would work but I suppose there could be a bonus payable to them. Seems unlikely! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think so Bobby, you may have heard parts of something about future sell-ons but nothing i know of in the sale of shares to the fans and GLS states that the consortium will get money from player sales, i'll check though.

Doakes Posted September 25, 2016 Report Share Posted September 25, 2016 Love it. Think a good innovation for the club would be an official snapchat account, behind the scenes footage etc. Really popular app. You can get matchday filters etc on there too. Would be a good way to promote the club to young people. Lots of clubs down south doing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DXBBud Posted September 25, 2016 Report Share Posted September 25, 2016 Looking good. The message from GLS is particularly welcome, to let us understand what is happening behind the scenes and what his thinking is for the short and long term.
