I think this is the type of suggestion we need to be looking to support the club, obviously everyone can only afford what they can, but if you could afford anything extra at a home game or even one or two games a season then it can only be good for the club at the very least the club will be needing the equivalent of 6000 extra PATG punters cash next season, I hope we can all help make up the shortfall

Earth calling David, Hello! our club is reliant on every single penny it gets in! not just old firm money what planet have you been on the last decade, you think we've got a secret stash of cash somewhere? £500k was in the bank and a managed loss this season which all but removes the cash at bank, but with no credit facilities to cover any losses going forward every penny would have went to meeting the budget which has been reduced to £4.5million finishing third only got us around £150-250k more than expected hence the concern at the failures in the cup which have potential to generate hell of a lot more than a good league run (during the season, European reward for league place is next years income) in fact fek it your going off on one with no thought to it,batter in

I also think the club laid it on quick thick with potential losses but recognise Other clubs all have banking terms which are more preferable to ours , a hangover of our time in administration I'm afraid We simply couldn't fund anything in the region of £500k losses , hence insolvency being a potential scenario

its been posted in an article on motherwell mad/firparkcorner and the link is all over social media to be honest I thought about putting a scan on here this morning maybe in the protected forum, then seen it and thought everyone would have access to it there

It was impartial, but confusing in that everything is compared to last year, instead of to a realistic budget and failed to include longer term outlooks extending beyond one season........ and with the point being a simple yes no vote on newco being allowed, they were not obliged to include the point that its looking entirely possible that even with a yes vote all the potential losses may still happen when Rangers are dealt with by the SFA, so the preparation had better be done either way, Guess that might have levelled folks decison who only think a no vote will bring the cuts when in actual fact a yes vote , along with Rangers punishment is a much worse scenario as potential losses from both scenarios hit home

it appears that despite years of statements on our club not getting beyond itself and what now seems like lipservice to sound financial planning that we now budget for top six and cup success every year, and it seems that the performance related pay rewards more than the financial prize for success in the league and cup, I hope that is corrected asap if not already I'm surprised at the numbers are presented, and the assumptions in next years budget of top six but as it stands only the threat of a 40% cut in SPL sponsors cash i.e threat of losing from SKY cutting contract is the difference between the votes. and as its a threat that SKY have never made, nothing in the letter changes the fact that a newco has and never should be allowed to waltz straight back in anywhere other than the bottom of Scottish football. I hope financial experts at the club revisit how they are budgeting so that a successful season can put money in the bank instead of declaring losses but that in no way changes the fact that its a No vote from me, Scottish football needs to get back on track and take stock (again)

yeah looks like you've got a scoop!

bump in hope it helps eaststandfan seems there is still some questions out there about the society,

no the intention is the majority of the board will be elected by the Society members and they would need to be fit a proper persons etc , loads of information here on the official site and here on the society thread which I think is under a title community ownership

no not for this issue when the society is controlling the club, the society will in effect elect the board and the board will take the decisions, every single decision will not go to a mass vote, only extraordinary decisions would be passed back to a vote, PS there is a society thread to discuss these type of things

from http://www.motherwellfc.co.uk/2012/06/21/well-society-to-vote-on-newco-rangers/

the question to answer is simply yes/no decision, should sevco be allowed to take on the Rangers FC SPL share and besides 'No' being the just decision? do you honestly think there is any major piece of information missing from what's already in the public domain

Me? No, but , if it was me you asked , you've probably asked the 1 of about 20 or 30 Motherwell fans who would say that I've had a grievance for many years about season ticket holders getting preferential treatment and inclusion when PATG and other fans get overlooked Not that it matters , just thought I'd explain my answer,

east stand fan, email the club and ask, share when you get an answer

by Special (see what I did there) request: Special AKA has asked this to be posted as he's computer less but I gather pretty chuffed at the decision of his club: PS not sure if he's on the sauce yet

Celtic do not have a waiting list , no club does , phone up just now and they'll sell you one, did you not see the spaces last season? it changes your argument slightly as for once their fans actually might have some power

I reckon it's still a crap shoot mad Vlad will take them on Steven Thomson has mumbled about having to take them on and if another one club takes the declares early enough that its a definite No then I reckon others could follow, so as not to lose the balance of the celtic visiting support but aye , right now, lottery

how the fuck you meant to discuss things on here if it all gets deleted and locked things will naturally drop down board when they're finished

I think its a foregone conclusion, but knowing Andy he will probably ask the contributors to the society membership for their thoughts

its dead easy Read about it here on the official site 'Well Society section or contact them at wellsociety@motherwellfc.co.uk they've been great sorting stuff out for the folks I've put onto it

It's a very positive move by the board as long as the 'impartial guidance document' is just that, with the exception of one unbalanced press release, they have excelled yet again on this matter and as such I'll be putting more cash into the club as best I can. be good if they could save club cash on providing this guidance by allowing those ready to vote the opportunity to do so,

cleaned the paint splashes off the East stand steps?

your forgetting you got a match ticket as well Special? and a coach from the hotel to the stadium...... and coach transfers Fir Park-Airport-Fir Park.......and the price (unless you got a discount!) Iceland was £420 + pay your own hotel Norway was £590 (dunno about hotel or even need for it) Denmark was as follows – · Single room - £580 · Twin room - £545 · Triple room - £535

its the line leading into that OTF that I found the best and we will all hopefully be re-quoting, many times, in the next year, when voting rights and cash distribution etc get evened up
