RandomGuy. Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Genuinely cant believe so many "fans" are defending this, you're being completely shagged in the arse by a board that doesnt give a f**k about you, again. Yet here you are claiming the extra money makes it all alright, its utterly pathetic and shows absolutely no pride in your club at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djchapsticks Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Saint Mhirren What of course makes this all the funnier is the desperate wagon-circling on the issue by the at-all-other-times raging fanbase. Not at all. It's not exactly a source of mirth for anyone to be honest. A few of us always suspected that the club shop would become a Celtic shop on their match days. The signage issue is completely minor but should have been communicated to the support beforehand. What makes it funnier is outrageous claims over on B&WA by some folk saying they'd rather their wives went on the game and shagged their best mate than see a sign which will be up for a total of 12 hours per day over a period of three days.

RandomGuy. Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 It's a temporary shop sign. The badge of your clubs been taken down, on your own stadium, and replaced with rivals. Is it not pretty close to the "memorial wall" there aswell? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet here you are claiming the extra money makes it all alright, its utterly pathetic and shows absolutely no pride in your club at all. St. Mirren fans have complained year on year about the lack of use of decent facilities in the close season and why we don't let them out if other clubs want to use them. So where's the line? Rent out a stadium to another team for 3 matches on days where we wouldn't be using it? As far as I'm aware, plenty of teams have done so for U20s matches, including St. Mirren, Morton, Airdrie etc. A sign over a club shop for 3 half days? It's unsavoury, yeah. It's fucking ugly....is it worth getting up in arms about? Absolutely not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeffo Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 where is the line for you c***s? It's just a sign...it's just some shirts...have some respect.

Anyone with a spine wouldn't stand for this nonsense and would withdraw their support until the situation was rectified. Very few St Mirren fans have spines.

The absolute definition of irony - being on the receiving end of a lecture about selling your soul from a poster who named himself after Vladimir Romanov, the man who filled Hearts with about 600 nameless Lithuanians from Kaunas.

Coventry Saint Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 What if the money we take from this helps us keep Sevco in the Championship? How would other fans feel about it then? Hearts fans - imagine we keep both Sevco and Hibs down, because of the dirty Cellic cash. It's really unlikely, I know, but we're a cash-strapped club in a finance-led business. I was pissed off earlier, but I'm comfortable with it now. I'll take the money and the loan signings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or are you getting that too? I couldn't give two shiny shites how much they make from the shop. It'll be less than they make from their club shops in braehead or Glasgow for that matter. It'll also be more than we would make from our shop in that time...considering it wouldn't be open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gareth_Glasgow Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 We should have replaced the club shop sign with a 'SUPPORT OUR TROOPS' banner and let our brave boys have the ground for three games instead IMO. #amf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody's delighted by this, but in the grand scheme of things is it really such a big deal? Will all be forgotten about in a few months and as I said I think disturbing your own ST holders and fans for a competitive fixture is far worse imo.

Fair play to you for giving TheTroll something to work with though. I was happy with this arrangement before I seen how wound up fans of other clubs were getting about it. Now I'm absolutely delighted with it, I hope we do this every preseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
