None of us are experts at running the club, however our opinion does count because, when you get down to it we are customers of a business. The guys that are on the board (now not playing fans) never had any experience of running a club until they went on the board. So why do they have better ideas than the paying fan/customer. Maybe there are successful business Rascals on this forum whose life experience and knowledge of businesses have some validity rather than being pigeonholed as a moaning supporter with hairbrained ideas. He forgets nothing. He chooses to ignore a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is rather pompous and dismissive of you to suggest that fans don’t have the ability to have ideas that affect their club. It’s amazing when you keep taking the stance that the board are all fans. It's a tactic he uses regularly to close down any further discussion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure where, why or how anyone would have gotten an idea I didn’t think there were issues at the club (there are issues at all clubs). I haven’t remotely suggested what you claim (the ability to have ideas or that they’re all St Mirren fans). My point was & remains it is idealistic and somewhat arrogant for people on the outside to think they know better & the successive people running our club have just been ‘lazy’ in adopting ideas for growth.

No, but you trivialise these, as you did throughout last season, and demean anyone's points that disagree with you.

I personally don’t think a lot of the ‘issues’ last pre-season & into the new season were that big a deal, yes. In fact almost all of them have now been resolved. The last bit you’re claiming is simply false though. What you’re actually saying here is, some people get upset & annoyed when they can’t change my views on certain things regarding the club. Other St Mirren fans are welcome to think they are big/ systemic/ really concerning problems, I don’t need to agree. And I absolutely do not demean anyone that disagrees with me on the issues. In my experience, you have a FAR bigger issue with people disagreeing with you than I do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes you do and the forum is littered with your attitude that "moning fans" have no ideas that could be seen as more than reasonable. See below, it didn't take long. As for me, yip, I do love laughing at people like you that think they can do no wrong. 16 hours ago, bazil85 said: You’re pretty much a yes man from the opposite end. You’re seemingly saying ‘yes all these half baked ideas can work & should be tried’ & ‘yes I know better than people in the industry’ Seems like you’re struggling to understand though. I don’t believe there are throwaway ideas that anyone can half arsed come up with on a fan forum to fix the issues impacting St Mirren.

That isn’t even a wee bit like a post demonising the person 😂 It literally proves my point that it’s a matter of people getting annoyed when they can’t change my view. I don’t have to agree that all these ideas on BAWA are going to improve the future of the club. BD is absolutely welcome to disagree but he won’t change my view with the approach taken. I’m absolutely fine to admit when I’m wrong. The irony in you calling someone out on this given the number of times you have trolled instead of putting your hands up is embarrassing.

waldorf34 Posted June 1, 2022 Report Share Posted June 1, 2022 The board have issued a referendum on the 2 stand fiasco ,will we get more of this decision dodging due to lack of backbone on their duties as directors of the club.

At least we engage unlike other people who cower behind their block button, desperately hoping for quotes so they can take digs while protecting themselves from big bad responses.

animal Posted June 9, 2022 Report Share Posted June 9, 2022 Well done Jim Crawford and friends but where does this end? Volunteers now asking for a volunteer electrician for the club. How about a volunteer grounds man next. What happened to all the promises of professionalism from the Kibble folk ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
