Moonball Posted June 6, 2020 Share Posted June 6, 2020 2 hours ago, GallowayBlue said: Can anyone suggest who at the club, if anyone, it might be worth sharing any fundraising ideas with? Pretty much anyone on the committee will happily listen and take ideas on board - any one of Iain Dougan, Shaun Niven or Iain Robertson would be a good start. They all make themselves available so just send a message. Not wanting to dampen spirits and it's great to have ideas, but from personal experience they also create work, so if you can follow them through that's even better. Fundraising doesn't have to be done through the club, and IMO would even more effective if it was driven by fans, rather than the other way around. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I am aware of this and have ideas that I could take on myself. Just need to run them by people at the club to make sure that they are feasible. I have tried emailing, a text, a Facebook message and now obviously I’ve asked on here but I can’t seem to get anyone. If any of the people mentioned want to message me on here that would be great.

EdinburghBlue Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 I think there would be many fans who would be happy to contribute £x per month, particularly those of us who live away from Stranraer and who only get to away games. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll get plenty of "advice" which is basically people talking pish, from guys who don't want to do any work themselves. . Stick with it if you are genuine. Actions do speak louder than words, as someone's said. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah right. I went down to a game last season as a neutral and sat in that part of the stand and honestly didn’t see anything wrong with the seats! Are yous selling off the old ones? Could probably earn a few quid 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes for a good laugh but probably not ideal in terms of safety Haven't heard anything about them going on sale but you could be right. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I saw the seats were away I thought it was some “elevated safe standing” /Covid situation. Glad to hear it’s just repairs Edited July 24, 2020 by Thereisalight.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad to hear it’s just repairs [emoji23] Approximately 900 new seats. The old ones taken out that are still serviceable are being used to repair some of the remaining old ones.

Moonball Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 Good to have Andy back on board. Shame to see Stevo go as I thought he could have had a good season in League 2, but we move on. Plenty of attacking threat on paper. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattmc Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 Great news tonight about Andy Stirling. If Faz can get him anywhere near back to his best we’ll be on to something. Slightly disappointed with the other news tonight regarding season tickets. £180 for 14 games compared to £215 for 18 last season. £12.85 per game compared to £11.94 a game on last seasons. Add in that general admission this season is cheaper than last it makes it even worse value. In addition to this we’re a league below last with a manager who could only muster two league wins. Around £8000 raised by supporters in recent months. It would of been nice to see a thank you reflected in the price of the season ticket. No doubt this comes across as me being very tight, for the record I’ll be stupid or loyal enough still to pay it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue1870 Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 glad to see prices drop by a quid for a lower league. Any chance the two threads can be merged admin 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
