  1. That's quite a claim from the Tele. Do we even know who the decision makers at the club are? If the papers are sticking the boot in about failure to sign staff and players then they'll need to respond. It's publicly damaging the club.
  2. Hopefully the club chairman and board are prepared to explain themselves at the next AGM because that's not acceptable. You offer at least existing terms and either retain one of the most sought-after midfielders in the division, or at least secure a few grand when you most likely lose them. The only irresponsible behaviour here is that of the club chairman and board for allowing this to happen, again. And I hope Brian Bonar is watching and unimpressed.
  3. I live in hope that the stadium director is waiting to see if we can just repair the metal sheets on the roof, or replace it entirely with a stained glass mosaic with the players depicted to be voted on by MCT at a later date.
  4. Is the someone representing one of our players in the (board)room with us now?
  5. Still going to be running one of the smallest budgets in the league and not even started season planning until June, I'm going to guess relegation is odds on at the minute.
  6. The swing in votes after Monday night will be significant I reckon. It's a shame nearly half the membership had already voted before the meeting, and before hearing from our reps, the chairman and especially Brian Bonar. I imagine the majority of us are now pro-Dalrada deal, including those who voted against. The way the vote has been conducted has been awful and I hope releasing the info we needed to see in instalments hasn't fucked the whole thing.
  7. Laird didn't impress. Owned all of the "I flew to America, I was in Silicone Valley, I was in the CEOs office, I did a presentation, I spoke to the whole family, I did the deal". But all the failures that happened in the intervening period? Ah dunno about any of that, you'll have to ask someone else. Bonar comes across as a nice guy in fairness and I don't think he himself is looking to grab the club. I do think some present tonight are using their connection to him to stay beyond their skillset/welcome but that is smaller fry right now. Gordon Ritchie's point to write into the club articles that they can't issue shares without consent of MCT would have resolved the worst fears about voting for this weeks ago.
  8. Sponsorship is a form of investment in your brand though. Not saying people everywhere will be studying the latest sponsor on a Morton top in passing, but any teams travelling will be travelling to Cappielow Park Supported by Dalrada Technology UK, which is why this kind of sponsorship can be lucrative.
  9. Voting should be reopened from scratch following the EGM. It's a farce that the vote was opened before the chance for proper scrutiny and will make that point at the meeting itself.
  10. One less immediate thing to worry about which is good. Imrie will still be away at the first opportunity though so we should expect that and plan accordingly.
  11. Very sad news. One of the good guys on this forum in all the time I've been posting on it, will miss his contributions. Condolences to you and the family.
  12. I think the centre of our defence was pretty good last season. Baird is a standout at this level and Boyes is a good player as well. Our frailties last season were at left back and not having cover for Ballantyne and Wilson when they were injured.
  13. Fact based analysis.
  14. We now have preorders open for 2 mystery kits with mystery or no sponsors on them. With an Amazon delivery estimated time slot to reveal rather than a specific time. Utter nonsense imo.
  15. Hard to call out any success or failure on this unquantifiable, vague, bullshit in any case. But getting a FIFA ban because of rank incompetence and poor admin does not constitute high governance standards and I'm yet to hear who's being replaced for it. The current GMFC board should have commented on this proposal by now, not least the chairman, if they have negotiated it themselves as a means of preserving their position. I don't know how anyone can be voting before the EGM to be honest, the chance for proper scrutiny is then.
