Best thing with anyone on an SO means that they can add an extra £1 or whatever they want above the minimum £10 so hopefully anyone here who can afford to can up their SO too as every little counts!

Rizzo Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 I recently cancelled my paypal SO in favour of setting up one direct from the bank. Got an email from someone at FSS very quickly asking for feedback on why I'd cancelled the paypal one and then offered plenty of help in linking the new SO to my name. Pretty well organised and pleasant with it, from the outside it seems that the FSS is pretty well run. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do they take the place of the championship club and get the 2nd leg at home or would finishing higher in our league take precedence for 2nd leg home advantage? Last year Queens Park beat us then had the first leg at home, imagine it'd be the same again. If you go through you'll have the second leg at home. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought there was going to be more to FFF than that. For me personally, I will stick with FSS (it now has the same ST pay model as FFF). I just think FSS is a more substantive offering from a supporter point of view. I can’t imagine anyone going down the FFF route because it allows the ST price to be paid monthly. That would just come across as a ST paywall. It’s purely altruistic while having no desire to be part of the share building that the FSS represents. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cash all goes into the same pot anyway. At least with the FSS, shares are purchased to enhance the fan ownership model. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairney The Dinosaur Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 Agree. If you want to give over and above your ST then FSS represents the best option. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However There are people out there who have not joined FSS for whatever reason. The club have launched this to see if it can capture some of these people. Really don’t get the issue with it. One on here has already joined. I am not sure it will have a big uptake TBH but time will tell. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure the Airdrie lads issue, but it’s crap Three of us have season tickets, sit together but when it comes to matches such as we had for Ayr in the cup we needed three transactions to get our usual seats, there’s no facility to link and purchase on behalf of family and friends 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t you buy more than one and then go to the basket and pay for all? ….just like several items at the same time on Amazon? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have STs in the KM stand but had missed the boat on getting tockets for that. Maybe the site was having an off-day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RC55 FFC Posted April 13, 2023 Share Posted April 13, 2023 My issue with the ticket system is (and I think this may be Number 7s issue) is that the ticket site works very well/easily if buying KM stand tickets or unreserved Main stand tickets (or indeed your own ST seat) but it’s virtually impossible to buy seats on your friends/families behalf in one transaction for cup games etc and you can’t link a group together. I’ve fed it back but don’t believe it can be rectified. Each ST holder needs to buy for themselves, UNLESS you bought multiple STs for a group at the time of purchase. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did B4L not offer some monthly prizes? Unless I’m wrong, this is just a donation that only offers a monthly payment of the ST….which you can do if you are a member of the FSS 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the FFF scheme running concurrently and effectively doing the same thing then surely the onus to help bridge the funding gap now falls on the club as much as has been requested of the FSS? I felt that there was some unfair criticism of the level of membership the FSS had achieved so if you expect little take up of this then is it fair to expect the FSS to increase 3/4 fold? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be limited in the same way FSS is with benefits making it liable for VAT deductions. FSS share benefits too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
