Random summarised it clearer than the minutes.

£526,000 set aside in report and accounts for infrastructure projects including car park and score board.

Dont think this money can be reallocated for other use. Any accountants on here that can explain what the provision money can be used for and when by?

Nothing at all, as far as I can see. He's stating his satisfaction with the way that everything is currently handled. What do you think he's moaning about?

I wasn't moaning, just writing down what was said.

That's because summaries are easier to make clearer than minutes.

Really good to see such detailed minutes provided for these and there's absolutely no chance we'd have got this level of info communicated to us by the previous board. Anyone else have trouble reading these though? When I look at the page I get lots of formatting issues, with lots of paragraph breaks in the middle of sentences? Possibly just the way my phone is displaying.

Really sad to see it painting a picture of so many morons within our support at the moment. People sending abusive messages, harrassing fans for wanting to set up an LGBTQ+ supporters group, shouting racist abuse at games, getting into fights at games, letting off fireworks etc. All of that is just massively embarrassing for all of us and can get right in bin.

Just read the much discussed minutes. Seem like a reasonably comprehensive record of the meeting? Just get them out within a week & there's no problem!

You called the person who wrote them someone with webbed fingers?

Best part of two weeks to issue the minutes - webbed fingers seems a reasonable diagnosis?

[CAH]

Just been issued with a warning for offensive & abusive behaviour by someone called John Beatson with no explanation. However I should like to offer sincere apologies to everyone/ anyone  on this website who has webbed fingers as I can only suppose it was for that reference and no upset was intended!

JB is a legend on here and, if I am not mistaken, the man who created WAP, and therefore The Boss.

You would do well to stay 'On side'.

[CAH]

Saintdunc - your comment above feels like a veiled threat!

If I have crossed any line I am big enough & ugly enough to unreservedly apologise. However all I received was a message from a person unknown to me saying the there had been numerous  'reports of offensive and abusive  behaviour' with no qualification of what he was referring to.

I am wondering if this website is run by a small cabal of 'besties' who see it as their exclusive plaything and not a football chat platform!

I wouldn't mind if he didn't stay onside and got punted. Until then the mute function works well.

I think it was mentioned in the last full minutes in April ( https://www.sjfcfansforum.co.uk/news/minutes-24-04-25) that streaming was being looked at for those who couldn't attend and for distance fans. Got to assume that hasn't been accomplished yet, to the point that the event wasn't even mentioned on WAP at all 🤷‍♀️ as previous ones have been. To misquote the above minutes, it's becoming even more Secret Squirrel 😂 

[Fans Forum Steering Group]

Evening Graeme, 

 

I apologise firstly for the lack of response on this threat. I’ve been preoccupied with work matters this week, and also misplaced the password for this account. @garydavidson thank you for posting the details. 
 

The streaming has been agreed can proceed and as far as I am aware it has been left with the club to organise as we would be using their streaming platforms. Whether it’s available for Monday or not is yet to be confirmed, but I believe this will be a regular feature going forward later in the year. 
 

The minutes will be made available on the sjfc fans forum web page by the middle of next week, and the club should also be publishing a copy on their website also. 
 

I will also aim to make the minutes as neat and tidy as I can, considering some complaints on minutes wrote beforehand. 
 

If anyone has any questions they want answered, please post them on here and we will ask them during the session. 
 

Thanks. 

[Graeme S]

Hey, thanks FFSG for the reply, it is much appreciated 💜

Delighted that distant fans will actually get to be kept in the loop, I think that's fantastic. 

Thanks so much for the update and good news, we're all on the same side 👍

 

Thanks for letting us know. 

[Fans Forum Steering Group]

I’ll keep an eye on this page for any questions up until 6pm tomorrow. If there is any asked I’ll bring it up with the club. 
 

thanks.

Can it be asked if Pie Sports plan on installing tills at the kios? Poor bairns running the stalls having to use pen and paper and a calculator at the moment.

Also any chance we can get some info on how season ticket holders can get the free delivery with M&M?

Thanks, hope tomorrow goes well.

1st is being raised. Was mentioned by someone via email. 
 

Second I’m sure there was a guide out from the club on the website showing how to claim it. I’ll double check with them.

Can you ask what the clubs plan is for selling tickets for the Queens Parks away game is. Thanks.
