Forever_Blue_ Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 34 minutes ago, Van_damage said: It is personal though as it’s presenting a reason to discredit anything I say as being part of some sort of revenge, which is far from the case. For your info, I didn’t really quit the FSS, I just didn’t stand for re-election. I had been asked to reconsider and am still helping them create new posters. I like a lot of the guys in the FSS and board so don’t want to draw any personal insults but just didn’t agree with this decision. I contacted each party privately but as the decision stood, I felt it was only left to try and talk about it publicly. The meeting is a place to do that but unfortunately I can’t attend. Besides most people don’t like to talk out in public so gives anyone a chance to understand a bit more about it and put across their views online. Ofcourse you are not to know any of that but you also had absolutely no reason to accuse me of having a personal vandetta. You had no knowledge to say who, what or why I may have a vandetta but decided to cast scorn anyway. You may not consider that a personal insult but for you to suggest I am the type of person to only say something due to some sort of revenge then I do take a lot of insult to that. Won’t mean anything to you throwing out such accusations but mud does stick and to see people I know like your posts as in some sort of agreement is pretty disheartening. Disagree if you want but keep the personal stuff out of it. Do I have beef with the FSS, no. Do I disagree with their recent decision, yes. They’re not the same thing so please stop throwing out these accusations and trying to make it out like I’m on some kind of revenge. I'd agree revenge is a strong word and I don't think that fits what I'm trying to say, so maybe vandetta was the wrong word choice. Fued, quarrel, disagreement, issue discrepancy?? .. Call it what you want to call it but I'm just calling out what i constantly see from you and again I'm not intending to personally insult you, I just think you've made your point over and over again, let's move on and let those that can actually alleviate your concerns answer them tonight.. At the meeting called to answer fan questions. Agree to disagree and let's move on? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joozy Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 The main thing I'm trying to work out right now is whether 'vandetta' was just terrible spelling (which has continued) or a clever insult aimed at VD. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Accusing someone of having a vandetta or agenda is entirely different. Words do matter(even misspelled ones). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was starting to question myself if I got it wrong but didn’t bother to check. Maybe I’ve got it all wrong and a Vandetta isn’t quite as bad an insult. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LatapyBairn. Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 (edited) Three things that I hope happen tonight are this. 1, the FSS confirm they are indeed happy with how the club have handled this and give us confirmation the 25% will be reached via the share donation the patrons are planning on making. 2, the club confirm if the remaining shares have been sold raising approximately an extra 20k that we wouldn’t have had otherwise (we will probably now see a couple of new players with that cash!) 3, Although most fans actually don’t seem to be overly concerned about this storm in a tea cup the ones who were will now realise this is a good outcome for both the FSS and the club and change the fucking subject! Let’s see what transpires tonight….. Edited September 1, 2023 by LatapyBairn. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hahaha that would really put a twist on things and confirm there has been an underlying insult this whole time. Sadly I'm not clever enough for that... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest FFC1965 Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 Looking forward to tomorrows game - it'll be my 1st league game this season. I'll be heading from West Edinburgh on the 26 bus to the Bellfield brewery for a few pre match refreshments with a fellow Auld Reekie based Bairns fan. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebobsboy Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 Transfer deadline day and probably the first one in a long time where there isn't even a remote chance of us doing anything. Normally you'd be hoping for at least one new face, I seem to recall Houston signing Joe McKee I think very late in the day. Can't see any outgoings unless it's a loan for one of the youngsters. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not transfer news as such for us but I see there is a strong rumour Andy Irving - former loanee and lightweight - is about to sign for West Ham Utd!

Remember we have until end of September to bring loan players in and I still think that will happen, I also think there is a slight chance Brad McKay could leave on loan as well.
