aldo_j Posted October 21, 2020 Report Share Posted October 21, 2020 It’s not a great statement, especially given the shitshow of statements recently. Instead, why not do a Chairman or CEO update and hide it in there? “We noted what Mo said on BBC radio and we raised our concerns with Motherwell.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course Tony didn't write this himself which leads me to question why we employ a Chief Executive who isn't capable of writing a reasonable letter. Seems to me we pay him as a figurehead but he even screws that up by making silly comments to the press and embarrassing the club. I know he bleeds St.mirren but that doesn't make him a good CEO just like it wouldn't make a person a good manager. It seems everyone loves Tony but I wonder how much he brings to the club. Anyhow do we not have someone from Kibble doing the actual work now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevo_smfc Posted October 21, 2020 Report Share Posted October 21, 2020 I really don't see the issue with Tony releasing the statement. If people want to use a platform and their profile to spout nonsense about other clubs, then expect said clubs to stick up for themselves. Will be interesting to see MR's views when the shoes on the other foot and Motherwell have positive cases within their squad. To honestly think the club would go out their way to make stuff up to cancel a game, when there are consequences involved including the team being weakened for this weekends game against a club closer to us in the table. Reading on Twitter, its very possible that players picked up the virus whilst playing against Killie earlier in the month, then again it could have been from a household member.

The comments that Maurice Ross made were ridiculous, but I'm not sure it merited such a public response from us. A quick phone call to Motherwell to make our point would have sufficed IMHO. Who really cares what Maurice Ross thinks anyway? The communication coming out from the club recently has been pretty dire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spankin_panda Posted October 21, 2020 Report Share Posted October 21, 2020 To be fair - the comments were ludicrous and out of order. I echo above - karmas a bitch and should a game be forfeited and points awarded, they may eat their words. Silly comments and no wonder they got the clubs back up, they did mine yesterday. mad for our own clubs communication - nothing new. Been dire for years @div - just a bit worse, if anything.

Yeah I get that it's very hard at the moment but it would be nice to have a more positive update from the club - about anything at all! The Chairman's updates were a welcome addition - but we haven't had one of those since 10th March. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanleySaint Posted October 21, 2020 Report Share Posted October 21, 2020 Personally I think if Ross is making those comments on a national forum the club is well within its rights to respond in kind, however, a more positive statement from the club on anything would be most welcome, perhaps they could update us on the initial benefits our new partners have brought to fruition??

TediousTom Posted October 21, 2020 Report Share Posted October 21, 2020 Was that the whole letter? I think the last line was missed out, you know the one that Tony puts at the bottom of all his letters.... Would you like to buy any of our academy graduates?
