calscot 0 Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 I think part of the problem is that it's a bit like a run on a bank. No-one wants to put their money in and then find the club has gone bust again for them to get pennies in the pound back. Add to that there are people wanting a reduction for a lower league - which I think is ludicrous as you're paying for going to the same Ibrox and your money reflects the quality of our team, not the opposition. You pay peanuts, you get a team of monkeys. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankie 8,665 Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 I think there are a few points being missed here just because of the person who posted the thread. 1. We are seriously lacking working capital. 2. We don't know the contract status of our squad (more, less, same money?) 3. Only 200 season tickets have been renewed. These issues are a real concern irrespective if you want Green, Brown or SDM in charge. This is why it was a shame Bomber hijacked the meeting the other night as these type of questions weren't answered properly. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chilledbear 16 Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Surely the question should be asked, if it is D3 or even D1, will there be many ST sold, no matter the owner. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GovanAllan 0 Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Surely the question should be asked, if it is D3 or even D1, will there be many ST sold, no matter the owner. Well none will be sold while we have idiots on the sidelines calling for boycotts simply because there favoured man of the moment wants his 5 mins in the spotlight and is shouting his mouth off while saying very little. Come Friday whatever the division there should be a statement from all fan groups to get out and buy your ST, if they don't then all they are doing is hampering the rebuild of the club to suit their own agenda. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
der Berliner 3,820 Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Surely the question should be asked, if it is D3 or even D1, will there be many ST sold, no matter the owner. Will we charge the same amount for Div 1 as we did for the SPL? Will we charge the same amount for Div 3? IMHO, these are the questions that need answered before the renewals start in earnest. First, we need a league to play in. Obviously, as I said yesterday, legends and greats should call to the fans to save the club now by renewing their season tickets (at the old price), so the club itself survives. If need be, add free membership to these people and award them club shares too. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,665 Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 I don't see any calls for boycotts - just people saying be careful and make your own decision. So far the vast majority of our current 37000 season ticket holders are doing that until such a time we know what league we're playing in and under what sanctions. That's not idiotic - simply sensible. After that happens, then it will be up to people to decide if they trust Green enough to part with their money. Some will, some won't - that's again perfectly understandable until such time the new ownership can prove their ability to run the club effectively. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is still difficult for people to renew when the club can't provide DD facilities and not knowing the quality of the team (and challenge) we can put on the park. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waltersgotstyle 307 Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 I have to question the validity of the 250 number. Seems like we have a lot of scaremongering going on. However with that said I think we will see an increase in sales when our fate is decided. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
