That’s an odd statement.

Imagine he never wore the hat.

Can you still buy a brick at Cappielow?

The club merchandise stuff is mental. Everything about it.

Aye, that did cross my mind to be fair which is indeed sad. Maybe the old style, up high, sign would have to do.

I'm sure it'd be down the list of priorities, but I'd like to see some proper signage outside Cappielow. I was looking at this picture (doon below) the other day and it made me realise how shite it looks on Sinclair Street these days. I'm sure there must be a sponsorship opportunity to cover the cost. I think something like this (below) would be good covering the grey barrier from the Main Stand to the Cowshed (or part of it). Could have some wording around community owned, with some direction on signing up online. Think about the amount of people that drive through Sinclair Street during the week without giving Cappielow a second glance. There's a missed opportunity there IMO to make the place look at least somewhat alluring, rather than the factory vibe it gives off just now.

Has there been any marketing of items for sale in the run up to Christmas? I haven't seen a thing, which is pretty shite.

I never really saw his role like that. For me, the GM role was a bit more low key. I think with a part-time role, on that salary, you’re asking a bit much of someone to come out and front up to thousands of people and effectively act like a CEO. Having him in the firing line in that role never quite sat right with me. Good on him on the promotion. Looking forward to seeing what he can bring to the club in his new role. And yes, I’d expect to hear a bit more from him now.

I was thinking about the Hall of Fame earlier, and read it raised £12,000 on one of the events. That’s well worth doing again. Last one was 2017 so it’s probably a decent time maybe next year or the year after. They should also look to make it more of a physical HoF, with pictures around Cappielow like St Mirren do. Must be sponsorship/advertising opportunities in that.

For how long?

It's sound mate I'm going with Toby anyway but cheers for the shout.

Hahaha. Gotta do my background checks brother.

I just checked his LinkedIn because I’ve no shame, and he ended his time at Morton in March.

Harkins playing with Forfar.

This stuff really does my nut in. It might be partially because I'm an internet weirdo but for me it just adds to the overall amateur image of the club. The whole website is embarrassing to begin with, but I'd like to think they'd at least populate it with the right content. Actually just checked and it's all been updated... In the spirit of complaining about things and then having them sorted, I'd just like to say that the website is so, so shite. I'm a big fan of the design work that MTC did for Hearts and Motherwell.

There’s a few kicking about that area but you’re fucked for finding them unless you know the area well.

With that approach there's only one direction the size of our support is going. There's also a reason that massive companies like Coca-Cola and whoever else continue to still spend millions on advertising a year. I can't imagine anyone in their marketing department would last long if they suggested, "everyone knows about Coke, if they want one they'll go get one".

Was saying to my mate irnbru earlier that I'd have expected a lot more promotion behind the first 'normal' game back. However long without the football and it's finally back good and proper - I'd have thought people would be choking to go, but only if they know they actually can.

My mate emailed (twice and phoned) during the week to find out how he could get a ticket and was told he could buy one between 12-2 on matchday.

Cost a fortune as well.

McAdams appears to be number 2 at Ayr. Fjortoft still not getting a game under Hopkin.

Guy’s a beast of a defender tbf.
