Who's got the timer set for the 'that'll be a home:away ratio of 1:1 then!' quote? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also live in battlefield/Cathcart and walked past Lesser a few days back. I saw the ground a few months ago walking to watch Scotland t but didn’t take it in fully as I was pished. But it really does look too small (even the royal box seems too small to host sizeable hospitality!). A couple of questions if folks would be so kind?: Is there a terrace going in behind the goal? What is the overall capacity going to be? What is the likely away allocation (is there a % that must be given for league games etc.)? I loved going to watch the Rovers at Hampden. And where I live look forward to the ‘away trip’ next year. But really hope all the boys I go with will get a ticket! here is the entrance for visiting fans & here is where it leads to... 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

an86 Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 I’d like to point out one member led organisation,The Well Society, the majority shareholders of Motherwell Football Club I’d now like to draw your attention to the official response of member driven organisation, Queen’s Park Football Club. This is how our football club values the opinions of the supporters. Compare and contrast. I know members of the management team and committee read this forum. I hope you’re suitably embarrassed. 16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reading between the lines that probably means the rumour is true that we want to enter a B Team and that they have no interest in the supporters/members opinion on the matter. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be the right thing but it has failed miserably at the last few attempts.

You would think that given the utter car crashes of the stadium farce and the expulsion from the Scottish Cup these raging incompetents would have at least learned a bit of humility. I suspect that they've become a self reinforcing group constantly telling each other how brilliantly they're doing and that they have no need to listen to anyone else. I'm not a member, just a supporter for the last 56 years so I'm not privy to the inner workings of the committee and its relationship to the rest of the membership, but I'm astonished that the same group have managed to remain on the committee over the last few years and somehow not been voted off. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably because there hasn't been any votes on office bearers or committee members since before the vote to go professional in 2019. They're currently in breach of five separate Articles of Association (I've already flagged up to the Club Secretary and Finance Officer) and there's another major one about to kick-in that no-one at the club seems to have spotted yet. In fact, the biggest breach possible and the polar opposite from 'good governance'. All of this behaviour leads to only two options; incompetence on a ballistic scale or complete and utter disregard for the club, it's founders, previous committees, Members, Supporters, Sponsors. Apart from one sponsor, of course. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not yet, but that's pretty much what happened last year, season tickets went on sale then only afterwards the admission of where the seats would be. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They didn't last year and I got a refund when I discovered the truth. I will not be buying this year unless assurances which are believable are given. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
