Double Winning St Johnstone FC Thread


Recommended Posts

Some of the comments about the lass doing the interviews.. fucking hell!  She's never claimed to be a reporter, she's the school liaison officer!  She probably is just reading them off a piece of paper because she's been asked to do it. As others have said, the club let the lad leave who was excellent at it, and never replaced him.

Clarke seems to want to keep him. Knowing Tommy, he'll never be off the phone to him. Can see us going through January with lots of targets and getting hee haw.

This is my fear. Killie sell Jones and McKenzie gets a run I'm not convinced we're a more appealing option, and we'll likely be offering him less too. 

What an awful realisation.

People are allowed to criticise a St Johnstone  representative when something's not very good although it seems to be a crime second only to saying something bad about the young lot.

Interesting that he doesn’t want his children to get involved.

Understandable tbh. Interesting he seems to suggest fan ownership is what he'd prefer to happen. No idea how viable that is with our support size.

I'm not sure numbers are really the issue tbh. The Well Society has just over 2350 members and it seems to tick over reasonably well bringing in a 6 figure sum in subscriptions. It's a cliché I know but Saints are "a well run club", assuming the infrastructure is there then fan ownership isn't an unrealistic shout. Would 2000 odd monthly pledges seem unrealistic for Saints?

From looking at The Well Society the main thing is engagement and communication. For years the Society didn't really seem to know what it was doing or how to put over a convincing, credible message. The whole proposal pretty much seemed to be predicated on an assumption along the lines of "if you're a Motherwell supporter you'll contribute...because". It's only fairly recently that they seemed to get themselves together and realise that they had to convince supporters that they knew what they were doing, that their plan is viable and demonstrate how it would be implemented in a practical, sustainable sense.

The social media and communications engagement from the club and the WS have been key to getting that message across.
