All your achievements (?) over the past few years are tainted im afraid, that "made the top 6 trophy" should be returned. St Mirrens financial doping over the last few years is pretty close the Rangers dual contract level of cheating if you think about it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like Dundee united would like to move Watt on permanently. They probably have to pay him off to make up the wages he won't be getting elsewhere. It really was a ridiculous contract offer for a guy who was having his first purple patch in years. Far too much money to turn down. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some wanky questions from the journalists looking for a headline as well Could all of that been signposted a bit more and put out in Comms pre video - possibly. But overall good Edited January 12 by eliphas 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There can't be many worse wasters of money in the last few years that Utd - it's almost impressive how they actually got the kind of money we're currently begging for on twitter and ended up in a worse state than before. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil86 Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Who's the guy in the photo with Barry Maguire? I thought maybe Mark Ferrie but it doesn't really look him I don't think 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess that proves the point of differing audiences and why it's difficult to land stuff. You and I agree on a lot of football stuff I'd say but we are miles apart I think on what we both put value on Comms and media wise (which is fine)....and I'm not even an old dithering board member. I'm not counting 40 odd as old and I don't care who says it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil86 Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 He mentions the release of the video aligns with some plans they have in America, not a direct quote but something along those lines. Anyone any idea/guesses on what could be? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

well fan for life Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 So, from the sounds of it, we had an approach to buy the club outright 3 years ago. Knocked it back because we're fan owned. That then became an opportunity for someone to buy a minority stake in the club which fell apart when we had a pandemic. Now we've decided to go all in on attracting an American investor. I, personally, think my Saturday afternoons need more t-shirt cannons and Buffalo chicken wings. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busta Nut Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 I didn't mind the video. Not sure what it told us. He spoke well and looked confident enough though. Can't help but think this all disappears the moment he's out the door. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ropy Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 If all comms is going to be a 30 or 40 minute video then after this initial flourish I may be happy to go back to the silence, deafening or not. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't help but think this all disappears the moment he's out the door. I guess for me it rounded out quite a few of the things that have been mentioned on here, the aims of the video, some of the results 24 hours in, gave a bit more detail on the thinking behind it, a bit more to say it's not just a video and that's it etc. Few wee nuggets about CEO folk begging interviewed Appreciate this is where the articles today have came from. But I only just skimmed them really due to work. Sitting down and watching that for me was quite a good update and info dump. Dunno I just found it informative and he seemed to be pretty switched on a d a good talker. Never heard him speak before I don't think 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is true. Albeit I've enjoyed the info this week on the two videos we don't need, and I'm sure wouldn't get, that every week. Unless we get a a CEO who fancies the sound of his/her own voice... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
