Might not be a bad idea Can the bairns throw rocks at him at H/T instead of wee balls? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The choice to sign Goodwillie has pissed all over the sheer amount of time, money and heart and soul that we've all put in to enable the club to become the excellent family/community club we had prior. form a fans trust and buy it off them 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going by the 2018 member subscriptions, available on the Trust website, the current membership is just over 200 members. The majority of fans are not interested unless there’s a crisis. However, this is a crisis. Hopefully Trust membership increases. Only costs a fiver to join. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get the feeling McGlynn is still in the Denial stage of grief. The statement has been made, let’s get back to football, nothing to see here. Football is what he knows. Someone at the club needs to take the lead, but they are all as guilty as sin. That would normally be the Chief Exec. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the information Scary Bear and the update on how much I pay (honestly had no idea what it was ). I got an E-mail from Alan Russell obviously showing their opposition to the signing and I know he wanted fans to share their views with him, hopefully anyone who did was not rude it’s hardly Alan Russell’s fault, quite sad to hear a few took it out on the girls in the office (hang their heads for that) I hope anyone who did is big enough to go and apologise, angry or not it wasn’t their fault. Possibly the time for RRST to touch base with other groups at the club and decide on a plan to move forward. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Trust don’t seem to do inflation as it’s been the same price since 2005. The folk who took it out on the girls in the office would likely be the nuttier elements of society. Might not even have been our fans. Social media has really opened my eyes to just how many people have issues or maybe they’re just unlikeable b*****ds.

I've seen folk have a go at the McDermid ladies for being "feminists" and "snowflakes". Union Jack flag shaggers have been on at Martin Glass for not also creating a crowdfunder to help cold abuse victims because Nicola Sturgeon and several SNP MPs retweeted it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L. Brilliant Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 (edited) Anyone who's waiting for the Trust to do something needs to join it for a start. Waiting for someone else to do something and just provide a club in your image is how every club ends up in bother. The Big Man comes along and, surprise surprise, they do something crap whether it's financial, moral, football-illiterate or cultural. It's a few quid to have your say and what other route to collective ownership would there ever be? Edited February 6, 2022 by L.

You’re not wrong some utter scum on social media it really is a cesspit with keyboard warriors and trolls. My father and I are members of the RRST too, my sister who hasn’t really attended much in many years as she moved away has continued her membership but cancelled it after the Goodwillie announcement. I’d like to say she was delighted to receive an excellent reply from the RRST who said they fully understood her decision and thanked her for her backing. So well done to the RRST from me. I’ll try to convince her to reconsider in the future as the RRST aren’t to blame for this but understandably like many she didn’t want to be associated with the club right now.

keyser_soze Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 2 hours ago, roverthemoon said: McGlynn refusing to answer questions on the signing isn’t acceptable. I’ll slightly give him the benefit of the doubt on the flimsy excuse that he’s a match to concentrate on, but once that is over today, he has to address it. A full sit down interview expressing his regret, admitting that he was blinkered by football and apologising profusely for that. He also needs to apologise to the victim. Anything short of that won’t cut it. Have a real fear the he and the rest of the club think they’ve done their apology and this will just blow over. It won’t. I’m going back today mostly because DG was my red line. He’s gone or at least won’t be there. I’m not happy, but I’m going back because I refuse to let these fuckwits steal my club from me. This our our club, not theirs and I’ll do whatever it takes to get them out. yep I agree, a match to play so concentrate on that, but there MUST be a full and proper explanation as to why this was allowed to happen and it needs to happen sooner rather than later. I'm going to the game today, would imagine the remaining members of the board will not be willing to show their faces, they know whats coming to them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly the time for RRST to touch base with other groups at the club and decide on a plan to move forward. The RRST are part of the Forum. This includes fans organisations such as Supporters Club, 200 Club, Jim McMillan, etc. You can be a member of one or all and have your say. Or contact Andy Mill who,in my view, is still the Supporters Director. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
