[QUOTE=GUNBOAT;39701057]As much as would like to join James and blame the media the truth is that our Sporting Director and Owner painted the bleakest picture of all of Scotland's club's during the pandemic.
To me this was a major slap in the puss to their supporters who in many cases have poured more money into the club this season than ever before even though we received very little in return for our efforts.To take this board as an example all i have read from posters is,"They can keep my money i want nothing back from them."
It's a FACT that the majority of our support have accepted we cannot attend games this season and virtually no one has moaned about the money they paid to do so.The owner and his Sporting Director obviously live in a different world to the majority of the club's support many of whom probably need their season ticket money more than the club to pay bill's,buy food and electricity etc
This ^^^
I posted earlier about the issue of use being so badly effected by the pandemic compared to other clubs etc. When the owner bought the club they surely must have realised that there is very little money in Scottish football! and before anyone jumps on and starts going on about they cld not have foreseen the financial implications of the pandemic. I get that. However there model surely cld not have been based on us getting into Europe doing well in cup games, and the revenue that wld bring. Yes they wld have budgeted in crowds etc. As tHeArAb said our owner is supposedly worth a few quid but we must have a fairly low wage bill compared to other clubs in the premiership. Our fans bought around 5,000 season tickets, which many of the clubs did not have the luxury off. Which provided a small cushion. Other owners in the premiership will be expected to bridge the gap during these difficult times why not ours? As fans we have went over and above most clubs with the foundation and contributed massively towards the legal fees. As far as I have seen many of us have stated that we do not want anything back and will purchase season tickets again! So come on MO and TA quit this negative rhetoric give us some positive news. The majority of us will stand by the club and will continue to contribute to DUSF to protect the academy. Times will get better but I’m sorry your loyal fans need a break!!
