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 ? Surely we're not depriving folk out of paid employment now!! A volunteer electrician? Disgraceful state of affairs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disgraceful state of affairs. A lot of new staff coming in ,much more professional set up in place. We would not of course have a full time electrician or any other tradesman on the books ,so if some some st Mirren supporter wants to help cut costs we should encourage it it's our club after all!

shull Posted June 10, 2022 Report Share Posted June 10, 2022 Those on the pitch should be masters of their trade or even a bit competent. Unfortunately, they are far from it and should be paid accordingly. like, zero, travelling expenses only ( bring their own lunch ) or part time wages. Maybe the players should pay to play ( monthly subscription ) . Most players in Scotland do this. £30 a month each for the girls in my daughter's team.

shull Posted June 11, 2022 Report Share Posted June 11, 2022 A St Mirren supporting qualified electrician doing work at the Stadium for free due to his love for the Club trumps any other electrician who submits the Club a bill for his service. Every fecking time. Just got to take the hit. I didnt pick up many Saints fans as I worked in Glasgow, but those that I did were never charged a fare.

There's implications when doing electrical work. Will he need Public Lability Insurance or will the club cover insurance if there was an electrical fire, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't for a minute think the club would be asking for major works to be done for free. It would be more likely they're talking minor works or less. Changing out lamps, sockets or light switches and such like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonny Posted June 11, 2022 Report Share Posted June 11, 2022 They are looking for someone only to investigate problems on match days (eg floodlight failure). Mostly they will just be watching games.Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would a bowling or golf club put up them as visitors? Edited June 16, 2022 by ianmac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sue Denim Posted June 16, 2022 Report Share Posted June 16, 2022 All fans should be boycotting games against the OF. In fact they should be boycotting all games until our clubs start a new non OF league Supporters are bending over and taking it up the arse from the OF. They are responsible for the continuing sectarianism in Scottish society You have it in your hands to force change. You won’t though. You’ll continue to allow the OF to get away with it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanleySaint Posted June 16, 2022 Report Share Posted June 16, 2022 Not only the fans letting them away with things, I see The Rangers are allowed to take money from the league sponsors but don't now need to acknowledge the sponsors, corrupt or what?

Are you sure thay are getting a share? I was told they were entirely wxcluded from the deal. Sorry. Just read the daily H*n and it claims the rangers will stilll get a share of any prize moneys. Apparently their dispute has actually raised Cinch's profile. Edited June 16, 2022 by stlucifer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
