    I'd imagine it's after you ignoring the various good points made by Mainstand to have a dig at his grammar/spelling. Why anyone would expect any better of you is beyond me! Since you started this thread you've taken every possible opportunity to rile against the board and anyone who makes a point that doesn't fit in your Steve Brown=bad paradigm.
     
    On a personal level, do you not think you should take a step back and reflect on the amour of bile you're spewing and look at where it comes from? Do you genuinely feel all this negativity or is there some under lying cause? Do you know Steve Brown? Was he mean to you in a previous life? Are you challenging the patriarchal/nepotistic society that we live in, by challenging one family business at a time? 
     
     
     
    Some on here have said they agree with many of the points you have made, and there really won't be anyone on here that doesn't think the club can't be better run in some way, but your dislike for the situation seems to be so much more personal than others.
     
    I (and many others) see this period as the club restructuring towards a different business model. A business model that has proved successful elsewhere (United for a very recent obvious example). It's been said by others but "all Scottish football clubs are selling clubs", when was the last time saints sold a player for money? Momo Sylla? Unless I've missed news and May has gone overnight?
     
    If there has really been a down turn in the non football income as has been reported, then the club needs to make more money from football income while also reducing costs. One of the main costs that saints has is the renting of the University of Stirling facilities, the club has had a windfall and has decided to reinvest this money into the infrastructure and the youth team. In football you can create new assets with good training/coaching and youth development.
     
    The amount of money that a "Goodwillie" or similar calibre of player would have been on would be comparable to what? Maybe 5-7 youth players? One of whom could go on to be the next Stevie May, Callum Davidson or Ally McCoist and bring serious money into the club. Players like Goodwillie(or similar) aren't necessarily going to bring in much money in future. Even if they do the club would have 1-2 major assets, where as investment in the youth facilities creates far from limited possibilities.
     
    As the ancient Chinese proverb says: "Give a football club an experienced slightly tainted talented footballer and they'll maybe get rewards for a season or two; but give a football club a well funded youth set up and training facility and they can create their own slightly tainted talented footballers for life".
     
    I've said elsewhere that I agree the club could market it's self much better, although for non fans saints have been seen as being quite active on social media and traditional meet and greet style events this summer, taking the cup to various fetes and Perth Show etc. The club is never going to give enough information to sate the desires of the hardcore or the football nerds (like me that would love to see an FM style spreadsheet with  breakdown of every cost, contract etc), but they could be more PR friendly, a weekly or fortnightly memo to the press or even just an update on the official site would maybe even be enough, but during pre season this would possibly be really dry anyway.
     
    I also agree that May and TW should have been signed up on better contracts by now but there seems to have been plenty of personal issues that have got in the way over the last few weeks/months and the club deserve some slack on this issue.

    I take your point Kyle, but Midge was a Houston signing, and obviously Jmac did not fancy him, and he never really got a chance, ended up on loan at Killie who were in free fall.  I remember when we signed John Rankin many, if not most United fans felt a player who was not required at a pyss poor Hibs side should not be at Dundee United, he was instantly one of the first names on the team sheet, and remains so.  Gardyne is local, and a very useful player who is certainly of SPL standard, you know what your getting, and still only 25.  Millar is much the same, I was always impressed by him when he played, but never got a run of games due to injury and managerial change.
     
    IMO Mc Fadden would be a disaster, expensive and a bit of a luxury player who does not contribute enough when not in possession, not good for TW's teams, whose best performances last season were as a well drilled unit defending from the front, not McFadden's game at all!

    Hes done okay recently. He and Kane if they are going to be part of the squad have to be given a chance to prove it.
     
    There is no point them being part of the squad if they are just going to stand and watch.
     
    I don't think we do need another attacking option.
     
    Personally we need a central defender.  ZERO pace at the back.
     
    Anderson needs a partner that isn't extremely slow.  Sometimes you get away with it against your average Scottish side but when you come across the likes of tonight it shows.

    Seriously though, not that there seems to be any substance to this rumour yet, apart from one tweet from what I can see, I certainly wouldn't begrudge Stevie a move to Wigan. In fact, it's exactly the kind of club that I would be happy to see him move on to. We've seen that they can help develop young guys picked up from this level.

    You're kind of in the middle there Smarmy.  It's Tommy's 4th season at McD and his 2nd as manager  .  As far as rumours go, there's no wonder.  People make stuff up and others believe it.  There's still folk on here who believe that Mostovoi will sign any day soon 
     
    Condolences to King Tommy.

    Does UEFA hate us so much that they'll add another team to ensure we're knocked out?
