TRVMP Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 As the old industry adage goes, people don't drink lager, they drink advertising. That's why. The same reason Dos Equis here in the US went from a niche brand to a top three Mexican import, largely off the strength of the (admittedly excellent) Most Interesting Man in the World ads. There are quite a few sectors where pricing doesn't reflect material cost that much, and beverages are one of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The patrons of the Cafe Continental must consume swimming pools of the stuff each year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevie Aitken's Love Child Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Any idea when pre-season training starts? I'd imagine it will be some time this week. Sure I read that Partick Thistle were back in during the week just gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dunning1874 Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Just the £12 being charged for a friendly against St Johnstone. Brian Wake my Lord, Brian Wake Brian Wake my Lord, Brian Wake Brian Wake my Lord, Brian Wake Oh Lord, Brian Wake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EanieMeany Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Tickets for our fixture against St Johnstone go on sale on Wednesday 3 July, with supporters asked to purchase in advance where possible in order to avoid excessive queues at the ticket office on a matchday. Nothing quite sums up the stupidity of our turnstile set-up like warning against excessive queues for a pre-season friendly that'll be lucky to get a 4 figure attendance.

bigB Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Just the £12 being charged for a friendly against St Johnstone. Outrageous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
port-ton Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 £12 is probably a bit steep for a friendly but £20 to watch two games in a few days doesn't bother me in the slightest.

TRVMP Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Good to know that 'briefs' for that all-important St. Johnstone clash are available at a variety of local outlets, because contrary to the official site, you can't buy them online: edit: this is separate from the fact that the login page for gmfctickets is on http - that is, not https, so non-encrypted. Here is why, even if the transmission is https (and I'm not sure if it is), that's not enough to keep it secure: https://blog.mozilla.org/tanvi/2016/01/28/no-more-passwords-over-http-please/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually meant to email the club about it but forgot about it as I had no need to visit the site again, but that kind of thing is extremely shoddy, at very best and it appears it's still as bad now.
