Is that because Championship team no longer need to print names on the backs of shirts?
Too soon?

I have a question also. 
Are you all not utterly ashamed by the lack of support given to the club's women's team? Every other Scottish professional club, with a women's team, puts you to shame.

That would be the definition of new! 30 months is easily long enough. SMISA could do that by actively encouraging members to donate. The club could do it by being a bit more active so far as bringing in new corporate partners or facility hires. Not to mention offering more of the training gear worn by the staff. Major new money is hard to find, inviting new sponsors to hospitality instead of filling empty tables with friends might be a start. A business club, with certain concessions. Or promote the women's team in some frigging manner and maybe more sponsors will come in.

Why does every interview on the official website require you to pay for buddievision ?
I pay for season tickets, monthly smisa , so not paying an extra charge to hear player interviews.

Seeing as SMISA can't be bothered...
It's a year since SMISA and the St Mirren Women's team (the official one Alan) began their partnership. They've had a decent first season and will continue to grow. Many professional clubs now have their own women's team and it's fantastic that we do. I'd, even though I'm no longer a member, like to thank you all for voting their funding through. I take great pride from having been involved.

One of the obvious issues is that the spend isn't for the full duration of contracts. Yes, you can "mutually terminate"...that's not free though. For two you MT you're probably using about 70% of a salary slot in the pay off. Spending all that money did get us up, but it's not sustainable.

No no Tony, he's not directly involved at club or SMISA level. Thousands will back him up on that. 
The fact SMISA can't demonstra...ooooh chilling levels of deja vu! Literally no point continuing with the discussion. 

If Div's reading is correct then I would also be deeply concerned at the current management of the club.
Next years accounts will be even worse given the bloated squad and payoffs. And do we really need 34 management and admin staff? A number that keeps going up and up. We are a relatively small business really.
Anyone who remembers the late 80s and early 90s should be watching Gordon Scott like a hawk now!
There is of course the McGinn money but that should have been a bonus, not just enough to cover the club running at a massive deficit.

SMiSA were told to not pay for players wages again. So, they do it indirectly by paying for things the club "don't cover".  It'd be much easier to just become a Limited company, admit it's just crowd funding and pass it all over. It'd definitely get voted through.

Great to see a community option, but to have SMiSA funding the Community Trust? Does this mean SMiSA will no longer look to run their own community projects? More worrying, are the Community Trust now the second club related Trust incapable of securing community funding?

You self important clown!

Well done. I didn't realise I was getting my money back...

You, of course, have failed to understand the definition of impact. What you mean is no detrimental impact whatsoever. The plan is ahead of schedule, there is no will to complete early and memhers should be pushing for either early completion or the implementation of a float fund for use post-completion...communication by e-mail of course.

I know who they all are, I've also just said that my belief isn't just that you're on the committee. Right so you're not, you're not involved in the club, you are never fed anything, you don't take notes from anyone and post it verbatim...you just absolutely refuse to look past your own opinion or understand that things in the background get spun or worked in order to go through or be presented in an acceptable manner.

Bob etc took on a club with the administrators at the door, Stewart etc took on a club around 2 million in debt. Gordon took on a well run club with no financial worries, there was no ship to steady and in all honesty the management and players have achieved promotion. As for denying what is blatant, I'm fully able to see you don't have a clue what you're talking about with regards myself and me leaving SMISA. Your posts also don't deserve much time, can't be any more open or honest than that. Keep sooking the dummy!
