jaybee 1,703 Report post Posted December 4, 2020 17 hours ago, Mr Optimistic said: You conveniently don't quote him in full. What he actually said was 'There are rumours about Jim Gillespie wanting a artificial pitch at SMP so his kids could run about the stadium.' It's so ridiculous, so absurd I thought it needed to be challenged. After todays COVID fiasco maybe the notion that we are a professional football club needs challenged as well? Simply offering my take on what was written, however the shit-fest arising out of what would appear to be our own lack of comprehension; does somewhat beggar belief. Personally I am not for looking for individuals to blame, lets be honest clearly there is LOTS of blame that COULD be attributed, but my feeling is as a club it's best to bite the bullet and get on with it and we fans should assume the club and individuals are now better informed. I can appreciate fans on here being 'royally pissed' about it, but some of them act like the family dog who suddenly turns and bites the hands that feed it, incomprehensible, but it happens. Looking forward to the next Aberdeen game COYS do us proud. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There’s not much I detest more than utterly ignorant, lazy views about the trustworthiness of banks. In 2008, a relatively small number of utter cunts f**ked over the whole banking industry and plunged economies into total chaos. Since then, banks have taken great strides to ensure that not only would this never be likely to happen again, but if it somehow did, it would not affect the normal retail punter. But there will always be ill informed, clueless arseholes spouting the same old tired lines about so called “bankers” and banks. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bonzoboys 98 Report post Posted January 19 Oh no, what are the club doing in putting out a straight forward statement? Such spoil sports Don't they realise they are just spoiling the fun of all our conspiracy theorists on here who are desperate to talk about fallouts between Kibble, SMISA and the club, Kibble finding grave financial errors in the books, possible financial irregularities that could scupper the buyout. No doubt they will find something else to moan about! 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bazil85 3,311 Report post Posted January 19 Glad this can be put to bed, regardless of the message and timing I'm sure it was something hanging over most St Mirren fans. Decent news period for us off the park. Accounts ✔️ Unfair SPFL forfeits ✔️ Financial irregularities ✔️ Hopefully we can kick on now and get business on the field back on track, starting with a return ticket to Hampden this weekend. 🕰️ 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
