  1. Morally superior? Entitled? Hypocritical? Strange takes, but, as you say you’re on your high horse. The SPFL being ‘uncomfortable’ and government approach analogy was relayed from inside the club. Nobody mentioned it doesn’t matter nor covering up and dismissing any behaviours dangerous or not. The club certainly didn’t & dealt with the matter on their terms ahead of any sanctions. As has been said it has to stop which I support to avoid further censure. And again, rights and wrongs of its use are for another debate.
  2. Don’t see allocations how big or small affecting the decision making - these are token amounts, the uncomfortable approach to appease government. I’d doubt the authorities would have known of any offer to pay penalty by another party. Wanting fans banned would only serve to raise statistics when representing to government. Refraining is the only option to avoid future censure. The rights and wrongs of the issue are for another debate.
  3. We’ve sold out allocations with limited numbers though, tomorrow is a different circumstance again. Were it to be reduced capacity on the limited numbers I’d agree with your point. The responsibility taken is a paying of any penalty by others on behalf of the club. The club aren’t making a big deal out of it. We move on. As for your closing request, ruling is open to ambiguity in my opinion. If Police Scotland and the stewarding provider can’t identify real time or by using images available to them, club will face same. Club obviously took the group(s) to task & dealt with matter how they seen fit. SPFL don’t agree, like I said, they’re uncomfortable in this approach given our government are driving the issue.
  4. Read what was posted above and not just look at the words… Responsibility been taken - without spelling it out, it won’t cost the club financially.
  5. There is nobody missing out, nor is it costing the club. Matter already been dealt with internally in advance of the sanction delivery. This is not any endorsement for its use either before the usual suspects offer opinion. Very much pressure from government forcing SPFL to take action. Can tell they aren’t comfortable with the approach
  6. Given my reservations that he was way down a pecking order that had Liam Scales on top… I’d be going all out to tie up Stephen Welsh for the long term.
  7. Probably enough been mentioned already.
  8. Not that strange, Foster was in charge. ‘Gardening leave’ may best describe why he’s not been around or club announcing any parting of the ways.
  9. No, currently Jim Paterson
  10. Sadly, a few including Giles and Bear have passed. Was taken on the bus with Drew Moore. Not seen him in years, but, his son and grandsons are regulars ‘up by’ as are Giles’ family.
  11. Rejoice. That’ll be no more strange DM’s.
  12. An upgrade would be a stretch methinks even on Balmer. I’m against loaning from another in the same league generally, we’d lose the player for 3 possibly 4 games as it stands.
  13. Way down the pecking order after Liam Scales. Let that sink in.
