Yeah Management is also the Team or are you a communist :P

What is the big deal here..?

its a forum, i give a throwaway one liner, people waiting to be upset, get upset??? If you have a different opinion fine, the guys who feel the need to get personal/insulting about having a different opinion... thats become boring now.

to me its no biggie, wont get me cutting up my ST or starting a dirty protest in the W3 bogs, and i will be able to live with everyone elses opinion. 

On a different note! How about the board leading off the next march to tne ground..? They missed out on that one :rolleyes:

As long as we don't play any board members I am delighted to how we showcase :P

Seeing Gordon Scott and Fitzy on the pitch at the end doesn't bother me in the slightest. GS had communicated with the fans and it's clear he wants the club to progress going by what he says. Fitzy is a club legend ffs and it's obvious even now how much he loves the club.

Its not like Venky's at Blackburn or Ellis Short at Sunderland suddenly turning up if either club wins League One or the playoffs. Our guys have clearly been involved and care about the club.

For anybody to say The BOD are not part of the team is a idiot. They work incredibly hard behind the scenes to make sure Jack and James have everything they need to put a good football team on the park. And so far they've done well. So yes their a big part of the team. Coys.

I guess they'll be taking the stick with the same gusto when we dont play so well??? Oops forgot they've got a couple of layers below them to absorb that. Nice!

For me....this is a no brainer.

Everyone on the board, in management, the staff, players, volunteers and all connected with the club are part of the team together with SMISA, SLO'S,  Fans Council and of course the Fans all working together helped make this possible and are entitled to their day in the sun. Looking forward nervously but excitedly to the next stage of our Saint Mirren Journey. COYS

SG took plenty of opportunity to appear holding a cup from time to time. Damn right too. Directors sit through the shit seasons same as everyone. Why not enjoy those all too brief moments in the sunshine? If it was me, I’d be on that pitch with the players in a flash.

To argue against the directors having the right to enjoy St Mirren success, which comes around as often as a decent Shull thread, is churlish at best.

I say that as someone who has had a dig at the crap trophy presentation too, but GLS and Fitzy were perfectly entitled to be out there enjoying a great day.

SG was in W5 on Saturday , no padded seat or prawn sandwiches for him . .

No... i would, as the many people i spoke to who were of the same mind believed thats where they should be. In their box.

i wonder if they will come onto the pitch to show their appreciation if we get horsed in a game next season..? Guess we all know the answer to that. Theres little chance of them becoming "detached" from the fans whilst Smisa still has a penny in the bank.

Clown.

So was Jackie Copland.

John McGinn was in the shed at Tannadice, but that’s probably been mentioned already.

Thanks for your input, shame you dont seem capable of actually voicing  an opinion. Too much effort?

He's not capable.

He is a mocker of decent buddies.

It's like a end of season thread nothing more than should the board be on the pitch. Everyone employed with the club should be on the pitch , the lassie cooking at Ralston, the lassie or guy washing and ironing to strips , the guy doing the grass its not just players who make up St Mirren football club :wub:

LPM.

Everyone is entitled to hold and express their views. I don't agree with yours. OK. 

Nor do I think it wrong that people have a right to be sceptical over the role and relationships of the Board going forward. This is healthy. 

Clearly agree with you that those involved in the drum and singing section have contributed greatly to improving the atmosphere at games home and away. 

My definition of the Club and Team at St Mirren seems to be wider than yours and encapsulates not only the players, coaches and managers but indeed everyone who has contributed in any way however small or large to the change in fortunes and "attitudes" this last 18 months or so. Each and every one of these deserve the recognition given and given freely.

There are times when Boards take decisions that fans don't like. They have legal and other responsibilities to factor in that we as fans may neither appreciate or like.  

Boards do suffer fan disapproval. It has happened at St Mirren and our near neighbours in Govan showed theirs very visibly last weekend.

Enjoy the moment. Keep your scepticism alive however. I might not like it but it is important that our St Mirren Family is capable of pulling together to be that One Town One Team we are so proud off.

Great time to be a fan, player, manager, staff or volunteer as well as Board Member.

Cant see either the pie stall vendors or stewards on any list yet! Surely they, as frontline responders should be doing a lap of honour too???
