    Pissed off after the club's statement last week, so phone call to the Herald.   

    I think Alan has run out of rope on this now. He's again stated that there is a proposal to build on SMFC land when Renfrewshire Council, SMFC and Kibble have all made it clear that that is not true.

    For his own reputation and the good of the club, time to drop it I would say.

    Aye, it is toe-curling stuff.

  2. Good thread.

    In poll 2, I voted for the 3rd option, purely on the basis that we could make an impact in one fundamental way - stop shelling out for a shite product. 

    You wouldn't keep eating in a restaurant if the food was consistently pish, or buy clothes from the same brand that are always burst at the seams, yet we continue to fork out increasingly silly sums to follow out fitba teams.  Its pretty much a unique scenario, and one I've often pondered.

    The only way to bring about genuine change is to say we have had enough and chuck it until the clubs are forced to actually listen and act. As someone has already said, the fact that Doncaster is still in a job says it all really.

    I don't think anyone has said we're a massive club. I certainly haven't. 

    Our stadium is too big, same way yours is too small but we're both stick with them.

    Our ground has sold out about half a dozen times. It might not be the most aesthetically pleasing place, but I'm not sure it could genuinely be argued that it is too small.

    There is also the option to fill in the corners if needs be. Some positive aspects of having a stadium the size of SMP is that maintenance costs are manageable,  it can generate a decent atmosphere when packed out, and we can earn revenue from its use for U21 games and women's matches, etc.

    I cancelled mine a few months back as well; I'd been paying in since day 1. I feel bad as I do believe in the fab ownership thing and I don't want to contribute to jeopardising that, but whatever is going on needs to stop.

    I have just cancelled my membership. What an absolute shambles.

    Like others, it is with considerable regret, but to remain a member in these circumstances is to condone and perpetuate the current set up, and I can't do that. Benefit of the doubt applied previously, but a thresholdhas been reached.

    I don’t care what James O’Brien has to say about the media (or anything) since he’s proven time and time again that he is a snivelling little shit of man that spends his days treating people far less privileged than he is as if they are dirt. The fact he works for LBC means anything he says about the “right wing media” is totally meaningless. 

    Not caring and disagreeing are to distinct reponses.

    The platform isn't relevant in the context of my post. Let's be honest, the platform GL used to air his views is owned by a sociopath who runs a company that systematically racially abuses its employees,  but no-one is talking about that.
