Agree , bu as we all know,its not a stand its a terrace with seats!
The last time I was in it was Skippy sunday,so I cant comment on the current conditions.
But agree prices are excessive for the product provided at the moment in SPL......but would the club survive if the prices drop ???? Would it put more bums on seats at £15 ????
That would be a good idea........30 years ago.....at the minute some "footballer's"/ parents/agents..... seem to think that football is the way to making a fortune out of football clubs.!!!!!!
I woluld have loved to make the money I'm making just now,(Or at an time since I left schooll in 1979)just for playing football !
Not slagging your idea off, because I think it may become a reality for the likes of our club, but untill the premiership start to take in to account that a football player can earn £100,000 per week playing football, when the average working man/women takes 4-5 YEARS to make that money....football is fucked !!!!!!
The whole thing cascades down to the grass roots......Smellic and h**s have made their beds and now have to lie in them......you cant live above your means (Unless for alcohol
) but this seems to be the way of most football clubs just now!
Agents have ruined football putting stupid ideas into many players heads that they are above their station all to line their own pockets......some people should be happy to play/be involved in football for a living instead of working shifts etcetc.
Ps Sorry Big Dave for letting you down for a lift tonight.....fucked anyway !!!!
One of my h*n workmates was telling me,that for their cup game against Killie on Monday,they are not opening up the Broomlawn stand !!!
This is down to the fact that Killie would not agree to let the ticket price go below £20
Not happy with the chance of going back to a 10 team SPL......but unfortunately as most people have commented on The bigot bros/Sky want 4 old firm games a season, if not we will lose money on the tv deal,where most of the money comes from.
We all want 16 team league,summer football,attractive football,more realistic prices etc etc.
But in the current climate/product provided/costs etc etc I dont think thats ever going to
happen,majority of SPL chaimen will not bite the hand that feeds them and will vote for the 10 team SPL.
The current format has been in exsitance for the past 12 years,and won 2 x 6 by the Old firm and only Hearts have managed to be runners up once and were still 17 points adrift.The old firm like it that way
I dont know what the answer is ......but it aint 10 team SPL !!!!
Agree Sutton from the start would have been the better choice against a very physical Accies defense...... Gow is not the player for a physical style game,never has and never will be, but thought he was much better than Blackman and Hump who have done very little in the last few games IMHO.
Just back.......pish poor again,forward line posted missing again,Imrie looked the only decent player on the park ,dont think Cerny made a save from a Well player in the whole match
Starting to get a bit concerned that the game might be off tomorrow.
Live about mile and a half from Fir Park, woke up to find my street, pavements and roads a sheet of black ice,now with rain on top of that, the place is like a skating rink and with freezing temp forecast overnight !
Can see Strathclydes finest calling it of for public saftey reasons
Hope not !!!!!!
Who cares........the club will move on !
In my time......Deans,McLoy,McCrae,Forsyth,Pettigrew,Mclair,McCallister,Walker,Boyd...
....the list is endless ..............................we are a selling club,all ways have been, all ways will !
