Mon the Sons Seem to have struck a nerve here, I was simply pointing out the difference between the 2 stream offers but you’ve got broon sauce fae Tesco and you’ve got HP sauce, what do you prefer and what can you afford.? I know what I prefer and it doesn’t have to be the most expensive. Nighty night. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overseas will be outside the UK. However, that's easily overcome. I'd also like to know your second question. I'm sure PPV wasn't allowed last season, and you had to pay monthly. I'd personally prefer PPV, rather than parting with £200 upfront, since I'll make a few home games in-person. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think you’re allowed to show individual matches anymore, which is an utterly bizarre and backwards rule and is a total pain in the arse for someone like me who works a lot of weekends. We’ll no doubt try and get around it by offering a monthly package I’d hope. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A monthly subscription is certainly more flexible, but individual matches is the optimum solution and that ruling does indeed seem odd, especially when there may be occasions when fans of rival clubs may wish to tune in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exiled Fifer Posted July 30, 2023 Share Posted July 30, 2023 East Fife offer a monthly subscription for streams for all games home and away costing GBP 20, automatically expiring after 30 days, but there again, of poor quality, I am informed. Why not look at their official site to see what’s on offer under EFTV. Just saying, like. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sons fan 1872 Posted July 30, 2023 Share Posted July 30, 2023 I know it’s not a lot of extra money for finishing 3rd but every little helps in our case and finishing 3rd in the group is pleasing 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Moonster Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 Those walk up prices are stinking, as are the overseas subscription prices. You don't have much other choice than to f**k over the walk up punter when you're completely unable to attract proper sponsorship. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On 28/07/2023 at 19:21, O'Kelly Isley III said: I would imagine that the share register is difficult for smaller clubs. I don't expect many families of deceased people will be prioritising informing the clubs, especially for a nominal amount of shares, and I also wonder how often the clubs' Company Secretaries conduct a trawl to try to keep things in order. It doesn't help that Dumbarton currently doesn't have a Company Secretary . On 28/07/2023 at 21:55, C'mon_the_Sons said: The 2 names that stood out for me were G Lawrie and D Dalgleish. I mean ffs if we can’t update those what hope do we have. As @Sweet Pete already said, its not the club's responsibility to chase that information per se. Shares might, perfectly validly sit in someone's estate for a decade or more and, as @O'Kelly Isley III said, families often arent even conscious their deceased relative even had shares never mind remember to tell clubs when they pass away. I act as Share Registrar for QoS. There are close to 100 shareholders, representing almost 10% of the capital who the club have no contact details for, most of whom bought their shares before the World War II and will be long dead. I've spent lengthy time over the years advertising and trying to source heirs for the unknown ones. Now and again one pops up out of the blue but it is a thankless task. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordo1872 Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 Maybe Alan Martin, as the sole Director of our majority shareholder Cognitive Capital, will be along any minute with a statement to clarify matters and put our minds at ease. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Moonster Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 (edited) Not to stop the bashing of Alan Martin or anything but why would he have the answer? He has the easy reply of saying the club board are responsible for that whilst CC are looking at our ambitious and highly profitable stadium move. Whilst we all know that's the shitehawk reply, he would also be right that McKay and/or Colin Hosie should be submitting these documents. On the subject of board members, is there any word on when the Trust members will be able to elect a replacement for Stephanie?

On the subject of board members, is there any word on when the Trust members will be able to elect a replacement for Stephanie? A couple of points here. I believe the accounts are indeed prepared and externally audited by club officials but for submission to Companies House I also believe that input is required from majority shareholder Cognitive Capital. For example I understand that CC were due to make a payment to DFC in March of this year - apparently it never happened - so that would impact both balance sheets. Re the Trust Director, a newsletter is being sent out to all members and in it is an invite to those interested in applying. If there are candidates then the established process will take some weeks to conclude. There is always a communications channel available between the Trust Board and the DFC Board so there should not be any concerns over 'dead air' on any subject until that time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
