I would imagine that the club would be happy if we doubled the current amount, considering all the historical shite and high rises with all our utilities. If we surpass, it would be fantastic. Great to see such good numbers buying tickets with still a bit of time to get the early bird discount.

Batatabairn? Was that Bantabairn? Our own wee footballing version of Chemical Ali?
I remember his cardinal mistake of using “we” instead of “they”. It kind of got brushed aside at the time, but he knew that I knew he had just fucked up.

That was the one major blessing with the bad guys in and around the club. They were all devious, they were largely incompetent, and crucially, none of them were particularly bright. Sooner or later, one after the other, they all fell into line and fucked up.

The one exception was Gordon Colborn. A smart guy who for whatever reason allowed himself to be dragged into a mess really not of his making.

The early bird thing is I suppose, a good thing in these difficult times. I actually thought there might have been an option to forego the discount (for those able to, and wanting to). The partnership is there for other organisations, but not for FFC itself. To actually break the 2,500 mark would be amazing Tbh.

Have you bought a ST yet? I emailed Jamie Swinney asking why there was no option to add a donation to the ST price and was told that it was a problem with the system but that it would be sorted. I haven't bought mine yet but assumed that the option would have been added by now?

As far as I'm aware that is available on new ST purchases but not on renewals.

There is also another glitch when changing a renewal to an installments option with other non-installment packages it won't let you complete the purchase. JS is aware of this too.

I renewed mine but I seem to have been charged the full rate rather than the Early Bird rate.

That'll do for a donation from me.

Yes, I bought mine. I had given the Main Stand a go, but not for me. Back to the KM7 stand for the coming season. I did the worthy cause donation, but like you, was a wee bit disappointed that there wasn’t a forego EB price. Even if but allowed you to split it twixt club and worthy cause would have been good.

Went as far as the checkout today and there's still no option to donate. Didn't renew as I want to put a few extra quid in so will wait until it's sorted. They've surely missed out on a good few grand from the folk, like yourself, that have already paid?

……and that post sums you up perfectly. Look, we have recognised you exist. That should keep you going for a while. Now just f**k off.

Finally some preseason pictures! Majority of the leftovers from last season in them, even Finlay Malcolm who people on here said had already been paid off.

That must be the shortest contract ever if that's the case.  He only just signed during the season

Sean Mackie. That's actually Leon McCann in front of him too, wonder if that's how they'll line up on the park?

I don't fancy that, need a bit more creativity in the team and pushing Mccann on one wouldn't really do that for me. I think Mackie's played a few positions over the years, I remember him coming on for Hibs at left wing a while back so that could be the go to just depends how good he is going forward.
