Are Syngenta not playing at Stenhousemuir too? 

I’d suggest that we’ve surely considered this, but we’re talking about a club who announced we’d be sharing at Broadwood after we left Hampden, only to quickly u-turn and play at Falkirk. Stenny Sundays would be typically on brand for the utterly farcical way the club has dealt with the stadium issue.

More surprised you’ve not got somewhere closer to Glasgow than there, totally understand PTFC is a no go as their pitch failed to cope with two teams playing there last year. Hopefully you get Lesser Hampden sorted soon.

Reckon it’d definitely have been Hamilton if Clyde hadn’t been evicted. None of the junior grounds are up to it, Celtic B/Glasgow Uni play at Airdrie, the rest won’t want their grass parks wrecked. Have to assume we at least asked about Scotstoun as well. 

The lack of options doesn’t excuse the absolute disaster that has been the Lesser build. Even with Covid, it should resemble a stadium by now. Your home is the beating heart of a football club and being away definitely detracts from general enjoyment, no matter what success you have. The promotion party was the first time we were all able to gather as a support, among players and staff. It’s not always going to be a high like that, but it showed the togetherness that had been missing. Reckon if you’d given fans the binary option of getting home or going up, most would have taken the former. Nobody is complaining about the latter, right enough.

Eminently believable, yet also completely unbelievable.

Just when you thought this couldn't get any worse. 

If a fair few of those Friday night games were to be televised then season tickets and single match tickets will be down even more.

How many primary school parents will want their kids bussed 25miles away on a Friday night? At least it's not a school night.

If we're attempting to break the lowest ever attendance record for a Championship match then that seems like a good way of going about it.

If this is the case and they’ve said nothing about it in the blurb about the share, it would demonstrate nothing other than complete contempt for the supporters. I’d like to think that’s not the case and we have reached an agreement to use it on Saturdays.

Folk have paid good money to sit behind laptops and cross the city to watch the team. An all day ticket on the bus isn’t a kick in the arse off a fiver btw, so you can stick another hundred quid onto the actual cost of a season ticket for last season. Patience is wearing extremely thin with all of this.

Are Queens Park going back to Glasgow this season? Was looking forward to visiting Lesser Hampden.  Anyway welcome to the division. Some decent away days in the league, I recommend Arbroath it’s probably Rovers fans favourite away day. Interesting to see how QP get on next year promotion was probably unexpected but you’ve got some cash from selling Hampden, are you going FT? 

Have you been in jail or hospital for a couple of years?

You’ll only have 2 home games on the telly. BBC can’t visit the same ground more than twice.
