Are folk genuinely arguing that's excessive force or brutality? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is weirding me out as well. The pearl clutching about a fairly nothing incident, in a fairly nothing game, that had no discernible impact on the outcome or the player is just odd. It's 100% not something that's worth revisiting after the fact. Edited February 9, 2021 by capt_oats 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desp Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 At worst I'm expecting a DX chop when he next scores a goal. Doubt he'll risk a hamstring injury by attempting Sweet Chin Music. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely would not mind McCoist doing more of our games tbf. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't a kick and a miss. So you could only conclude he did exactly what he meant to do. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rowsdower Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 It was never a red for devante. He wanted to grab the guys shirt to stop the break away, but couldn't because his hands were on the ground, so had to do it with his foot. It was also a wrestling move, and wrestling isn't real, so no big deal. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desp Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 Season Ticket renewal emails will be out soon, I take it? Genuine question to all - what's your thoughts on purchasing one for 21/22? Will you buy one again, because you always do? Do you take the option of the free ST, considering MFC promised to honour 19 games at FP when buying the 20/21 ticket? Do you not claim your refund from 20/21 but decline to buy a 21/22 ticket? I appreciate not everyone will want to talk about it, its a very personal choice. I've always bought an ST in the years I've been going to FP (missed a couple of years in recent times) but having bought a 20/21 ticket, I really don't know. The money I spend on my ST is budgeted for every year. I know it's coming so that money is there. I've been very fortunate throughout Covid times that my work hasn't been effected and I've WFH throughout. I haven't lost any income. However, can I still justify writing off that cash to buy another ST to my wife and kids? Is that selfish? I heard the boys on AVFTT speaking about similar on their show and they are right, you know the media guys will pull out some big emotional advert on the socials, pulling at the heart strings. I'm really just thinking out loud here, but keen to hear others' thoughts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busta Nut Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 I will be purchasing mine, I've been lucky like yourself work wise. So I will get one before Jul/Aug. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welldaft Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 I will be buying full price one like last season and the many before that. Hopefully most will as it is a much needed revenue stream for the club which we as the fans own. That said a lot of people will have to defer because circumstances dictate. But will still want to see their team and will probably opt for the lower cost or free option. That is their prerogative and fully understandable. Better that than walking away so it will be good that there are likely to be a few options. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dezz Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 I don't imagine the club anticipated having to offer a full 19 free games next season when they made the offer last year, but I think the decision to make that offer was entirely the right thing to do for a fan owned club. It will be down to personal choice and circumstance whether people accept the 'free' season ticket or choose to pay in full again, and no-one should be made to feel less or more of a supporter than anyone else depending on their decision. I'm sure the club will be hoping that those in the fortunate position to pay in full for their ST's this year will take that option to further support the club. Perhaps the club could encourage those who do opt to take up the 'free' ST offer to sign up to the Well Society at £5 per month, in effect making it a heavily discounted season ticket (£60) with the payment spread out over 12 months? That would at least guarantee some extra income for the club whilst still making it a fairly attractive offer for those that generously put their hands in their pockets last year when they had no idea if they'd get to see a game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
