No one is anywhere near getting ahead of themselves. Wind your fuckin neck in. Now you've done it! You'll be getting the Tam 'hardman' act, now. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthBank Posted May 4, 2021 Share Posted May 4, 2021 For years we have been hosting the Scotland U21s in UEFA competitions earning us a nice wee bonus. Forgetting about us qualifying for Europe, taking away a status we have had for years impacts on our income. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely this'll be corrected. https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/local-sport/st-mirren-seek-clarification-after-24034262 Is this the same SFA that 2 of our youth academy graduates played in the last international game, I look forward to the reasons behind this 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forgetting about us qualifying for Europe, taking away a status we have had for years impacts on our income.You don't need a license to compete in UEFA competitions to host these games. Don't think this is connected to the stadium. Hampden hosted massive UEFA games but I doubt Queens Park held a licence to compete in the Europa League. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alert Mongoose Posted May 4, 2021 Share Posted May 4, 2021 (edited) I believe it’s because there was an investigation into the finances. It didn’t find anything suspicious but the fact the investigation was initiated rules a club out of European Competition for a minimum of five years. Very strange rules but what can you do.

RandomGuy. Posted May 4, 2021 Share Posted May 4, 2021 You apparently made an offer for Daniel Mackay of ICT, alongside Hearts and Hibs. Hibs just signed him for a "six figure fee". 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not surprising he caught our eye, they gave us a real game in the cup and he was excellent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But apparently you can appeal against it and given the investigation didn’t come to anything then we’d probably win. Still it’s probably a moot point given we are the underdogs for the semi. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just seems very strange that such a charity can afford to sponsor a football club.The said charity is funded by the public purse and we are obviously paying over the odds to Kibble for the services they provide if they can afford to "gift" cash to a fitbaw team. All very strange? I genuinely think there is more to come from this story. -4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magnificent really that someone comes on here and earnestly tries to debate a point from this level of misinformation. From the Kibble being a sponsor, to them gifting St. Mirren cash all the way to them skimming public funds to do so. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
