Scott-Leeds Posted July 15, 2021 Report Share Posted July 15, 2021 Do any of these issues ever get discussed at the Q&A events or is it just the football side of things? I’ve emailed the club 3 times, but haven’t received any reply, not a receipt acknowledgment email or other reply.The Q&A they said they were ‘working on improving things’ news to follow etc 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[email protected] Posted July 16, 2021 Report Share Posted July 16, 2021 Have given up on trying to get a season ticket again. Will just have to pick and choose games and hope to be able to pay at the gate. Not very satisfactory but sounds like I’m not the only one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, that’s good… Chill out, your in the ballot too Another what 3 weeks until a season ticket is useful, Club has admitted unforeseen problems with new ticket system. And what's the point of an online shop until we ( or Joma) have strips to order or sell. Also , Provan will need to finish fitting out the new shop and website too Edited July 16, 2021 by alanb 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think the club are happy with the situation, probably just as frustrated as you and others. They entered into a contract in good faith with Skyview, Future Tickets and Alan Provan. Skyview try a fly one and set back strip sales, Future Tickets have issues (could be a costly move to ditch them and also waste what has worked so far)and Provan is working on a new set up.

TPAFKA Jersey 2 Posted July 16, 2021 Report Share Posted July 16, 2021 Never ceases to amaze me (I assume) grown men knicker wetting over a fitba top or getting a season ticket that isn’t valid for another three weeks. As long as the product on the park is up to scratch, that’s all I really give a f**k about. I’m curious to know what folk expect to achieve by whinging like big weans on here? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a reasonable expectation to have, at least, decent communication and be able to spend hard earned cash on a club some people will go a long way to support but it's foolish, IMO, to let people down. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s the future and current generation it affects.My kids all at school love St Mirren and rightly enjoy getting the new strip We seen images a few weeks ago and they’ve chose the away kit but were are unable to at least place an order in the system ready to go for when stock arrives, perhaps we should just tell them not to whinge like weans ( which they’re not ) or get their expected up as regards to feeling ‘connected’ to the club.My comments are reasonable and fair.I’m disappointed 3 emails haven’t been replied to as yet, disappointed when we log on to club shop, there isn’t one it’s CLOSED , disappointed we can’t place an order etc etcSilly me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott-Leeds Posted July 16, 2021 Report Share Posted July 16, 2021 So if your weans don’t get a top right now, they’ll cease to be future fans. It’s the apathy that the year in year out excuses/failures/ poor communication that drives people away If you are happy with the current situation then I’m glad.Many other ‘customers’ have a different view. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many other ‘customers’ have a different view. I for one are not happy for you and those affected with similar problems but I am aware that there are some mitigating factors to consider Like Skyview may be culpable in the delayed shirts and Future Tickets too for failing to deliver a system that works on all aspects required ( worked for me but scant regards all others) The club has acknowledged this via SMiSA director’s communication What to do ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many other ‘customers’ have a different view. If it drives people away then they weren’t worth bothering about in the first place. When I grew up supporting the Buds, none of this shite mattered. I could only have dreamed about owning a replica top. Folk are so molly coddled now it’s unbelievable. Just support the team and stop your whining. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TediousTom Posted July 17, 2021 Report Share Posted July 17, 2021 It will all be fine. Stop whining like little spoilt mill whores. In other news my stools have been long and nicely "nipped" at each end of date. Almost comfortable to pass, in fact pleasurable indeed. This mornings offering didn't even register itself on the paper. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
