Pie Of The Month

Since this post they've opened up sections of the South Upper for all 5 games.

Undersoil heating on, covers down and game should be on.

We're out but so are Morton who we are due to play that weekend.

Maclennan at least has the spare time to be on the board since he used to spend his time liking posts on facebook which were having a dig at the Foundation. Still if the Foundation directors are willing to move on then who are the rest of us to argue?

Not much left in the west stand at all for the 5 match packages since you'd imagine England will get up to around A5.

Glad we're soon going to be back to the thread where shouts like James Cairney for club chair or signing Eddie Malone are the only things we have to worry about.

McCall walking would be magic, saves us punting him and having to pay him off in Thistle training gear. Hopefully he won't be getting a role upstairs either, he's been a snidey w**k about the whole situation with his usual "I don't know anything about it" usually followed by rambling on for a minute or two before some sort of defence of the board. Duncan Smillie who owns Glasgow Rocks is the only remaining director, Gerry Britton is still chief exec so i imagine they run the club until the fan groups can sort it out.

Tam's "I've never met Jacqui and she donated to my charity so she's a great woman" stuff is laughable. Her company sponsors the fucking show you're employed on.

Peter Martin, Roughie and Tam McManus having a meltdown on their youtube show, it's the first thing they've talked about so watch from a minute or two in. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X4BBJRjm_t4

That is the best tear stained statement I've ever read on the club website.

Euan Robertson from Football Scotland mentioned in his article it's Duncan Smillie who will be the one remaining board member which I hadn't noticed mentioned elsewhere. Ideally once all this has settled down Gerry Britton will also be chased for his part in this.

Norway at home is a Sunday night which I only know as I just booked Georgia away and needed to get back in time for it.

I'm going for Sneddon and Graham in the tombola of players who will be injured and we'll hear nothing about it until they aren't in the squad. Seems like enough time has passed for Tiff to start half fit and be forced off again injured since the last attempt at that.

Cheers, I've had nothing but also complained about the fact I've attempted multiple times to provide my contact details to the club and they continually don't update them so I'll give him the benefit of the doubt until Wednesday and then contact him again.

Has anyone had an reply or even just an acknowledgement from the club after contacting them about passing your details to the Trust? I appreciate it's only Monday afternoon and they sent the email out last thing on Friday but considering the deadline they set is Wednesday I thought they should be on the ball with confirming your details won't be passed on.

Sneddon saving McCall's job. Probably still sign another keeper and drop him in the future.

After his performance in the cup game at Pittodrie maybe he only plays well close to home?

The Foundation are demonstrating they are a member led organisation by the democratically elected directors maintaining the red lines they issued less than 5 weeks ago. Members have had all that time to get in touch with the Foundation if they felt those red lines were wrong and I trust the directors to have used that time to gauge the feelings of the membership based on any correspondence they have received. Why should a legitimate fans organisation bend over backwards to accommodate the 5 unelected trustees? The red lines are already the Foundation meeting the Trust in the middle. The initial ask was for immediate elections of all trustees and that was changed to elections by May 2023 of the majority of trustees, it's up to the trustees to either meet those red lines or accept they will not have the Foundation's support. There's only one side that caused all of this and the onus is on them to fix it, not the Foundation. On a side note it's funny how often it seems to be people who aren't members of TJF that are telling them what they should be doing.

They met the Jags Foundation before and couldn't commit to what the Foundation said was their red lines on issues such as democratic election of a majority of Trustees this season and then also broke the agreement they had with the Foundation about sight of each other's statements within about a couple of weeks of making it so I'm not sure: 1) Why they believe the Foundation or other supporters groups can trust them 2) What they think has changed since they last met unless they have conceded ground on the red line issues. It's easy enough to sound reasonable in a few tweets but their actions since April/May demonstrate they shouldn't be trusted and I'll be contacting the Foundation to make clear that I think they shouldn't be moving an inch from where they were at the last meeting.

We've never had a Scottish Cup tie competing with Drumpchapel United playing up at Lochburn either, can't forget that. If anything the World Cup being on meaning there's no top flight football should be an opportunity for any normal football club to try to take advantage and get neutrals through the gate. Us and Kelty decided to go with £20 admission instead which killed the potential to negate any drop in attendance from the boycott. Not that I'm complaining about that of course.

I think you'll need to create 2 accounts here so you'll probably need to set up an email address for your son if he doesn't have one. https://tickets.scottishfa.co.uk/PagesPublic/Home/home.aspx Then once both accounts are set up you input his account number into the family and friends section of 'Your Account' and then that means come the 7th you can buy the memberships for both of you by selecting an adult and junior membership and then when in your basket assign the junior membership to him and then select update basket before checking out. If you buy tickets for both of you on your account they'll send the email with the tickets to you so you don't need to worry about the email address you set up for your son.

For SSC tickets you got a code from the SFA to use on the UEFA ticket portal to go on and buy your ticket and you couldn't get the ticket from the SSC allocation if you already got one for the same match from UEFA. SSC tickets were also non-transferable on the app so you couldn't send them on unlike tickets bought through UEFA.

For the Euro 2020 all 3 games just went top down for each individual game so it started off at the points level for the number of tickets available for each game then dropped if some members didn't take their tickets. Someone can correct me if wrong but I think the Hampden games didn't drop at all unsurprisingly but the Wembley game maybe dropped down a point to 12 or 13 points. Bear in mind that was allocations of around 2k for Hampden and 2500k for Wembley. I bought Czech Republic and England through the SSC but got a UEFA ballot ticket for Croatia (may have mixed up which 1 of the 2 Hampden games I bought from the SSC and which from UEFA). A bit of pedantry here but he wouldn't be 15,000th he'd be in the same boat as the 2700 on 7 points meaning there'd be 12,400 in front of him for 10.5k tickets in this scenario. It's extremely unlikely there won't be at least a few thousand ahead of him either sorted for tickets via UEFA, sponsors etc or who don't travel to Germany. For Ireland in June we got an allocation of 2500 and that dropped down to 12 points and there was over 4500 members with 12 points or more, I get a major tournament is a bigger draw for people but Ireland is easy enough to get to, was a big derby type game and still a decent number of people who could've bought tickets didn't bother and the % of people who don't bother increases as you drop down the points.

Aye they'll add the point for the package after each game is played. If we qualify, if junior is on 7 points this time next year and assuming there's similar numbers in the supporters club in each point category then he'd be in the top 15k of members out of 38k in terms of loyalty points. For an idea of allocations Wales got about 15-20% of capacity for their euro 2016 group games and the German stadia are mostly around the 50-55k capacity range other than the bigger ones in Munich, Berlin and Dortmund.
