    You've got to remember it's the fun though - they don't have a lot to reminisce and get excited about. Cannigia scored against us, which makes him a pretty big deal in wee team terms, but he was also part of the squad that didn't get relegated. That constitutes success for them. They're not like supporters of other teams - they have completely different metrics for success due to the fact that none of them know what it's like to actually win something, while a lot of them have had to watch their neighbours win every major trophy in Scotland, and play in loads of finals and European competitions.

    Look at how we are with Stephen Thompson - the man fu**ed our club over in a pretty big way and we despise him for it. The Marrs did way more damage to the wee club but the support still speak fondly of what the brothers "achieved".

    Crumbs of comfort DSC.

    Received an email from the club with regards to the situation with season ticket holders being due money off next years tickets. In the email was pretty much a warning that all money that people look to get back will come off next seasons budget. There was also a survey asking what you plan to do so they can plan ahead. Good move by the club to get ahead of this in my opinion.

    Completed our survey also. Not looking for anything back this season and will be purchasing our tickets for next. Hopefully most can do this although obviously depends on individual circumstances.

    Is it really a survey though?
    It’s asking for your personal details, and the wording of the first two options in particular, suggest your reply is your acceptance.
    Surely, a survey would either be anonymous, or worded “is it your intention to....” or similar?
    I have no intention of looking for a refund btw, but while the club (like many) are struggling financially at the moment, so are many families, and the team photo fiasco (and surely subsequent hefty fine), is counter productive and has annoyed many fans, and it’s highly likely any waived refunds will go straight to the SFA now.
