Jaggernaut Posted May 28, 2019 Report Share Posted May 28, 2019 Looks a decent enough statement, on the surface at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barney Rubble Posted May 28, 2019 Report Share Posted May 28, 2019 Well well well indeed. Who would have expected such a comprehensive communication on the day the season tickets go on sale? 'Lessons have been learned and we will do better in the future.' We all sincerely hope so, Jacqui. Good luck to the Board, Management and Players in their preparations for the new season. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlgarveJag Posted May 28, 2019 Report Share Posted May 28, 2019 comprehensive statement, open and very honest. Personal abuse is never acceptable nor is it any way go about expressing a grievance. I think the abuser automatically loses the argument by default. Sadly, it seems to come with the territory in football but I'm sure the Jaggy Intelligenceia will rise above that kind of behaviour. Bring on the 2020 season - I can see, with perfect vision, that it will be a uniting one at Firhill as we progress, one game at a time, back to the Premiership (although that's clearly not a target that we'd discuss openly in public but I'm personally expecting 100 points to be bagged on the way) . Thanks Jaqui, who do I speak to about my season ticket? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garscube Road End Posted May 28, 2019 Report Share Posted May 28, 2019 Very forthright and open. Apologies are welcome. My only reservation is that a person who's profession is communications etc, she has been utterly appalling and admitting that she gave up the monthly updates because of abuse( which is unacceptable) is unprofessional. If she wants to lead a football club, which for a supporter is all about emotion, she needs to form a hard skin to criticism. Otherwise step aside. For me, the jury is out and will wait and see how she goes forward in running Partick Thistle FC. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally agree GRE , her explanation re Kris Doolan is not what you would expect from the Chair of the Club and she should have guided Caldwell on this , unfortunately the damage has now been done and we can’t go back . Re Chris Erskine, there seems to be a smugness within some supporters and PTFC management trying to justify Chris’s departure from the Club. Chris Erskine has had a difficult start to his Livi career through injury and form so far but we shouldn’t forget the contribution he did for our Club .

Lambies Lost Doo Posted May 28, 2019 Report Share Posted May 28, 2019 Decent statement. No need for personal abuse which is part of the crazy social media world we live in. I still miss Dools though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mixed messages much? To say that the communication from the club this season has been 'utterly appalling' is a gross exageration, but entirely in line with the toxic criticism of some posters on here.

Chris Erskine is a legend to the club and always will be. however we did not get value for money the last couple of years from him as a player even with the wage cut and can see why he was moved on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where are there mixed messages?. Any abuse is unacceptable, but unfortunately, it happens and will keep happening. Regards professionalism, as I said, she should develop a hard skin to any abuse and criticism as she is in the chair. She shouldn't just skulk away in a dark corner and 'give up'. So I say, let's see how she performs in the coming months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the fact we got circa £300K from the Euro Payout having been a Premier Club - just doesnt get a mention ? I would like to see a firm statement that the Club paid for the Tenerife Trip to quash runours that are flying about ?

Prince of Partick Posted May 28, 2019 Report Share Posted May 28, 2019 Glad to see the statement. Good content. Apologise's welcome, hope the club learn from the mistakes. Let's all get behind the club for the new season, things look a lot more promising today that they did 12 months ago. Season tickets go on sale later today let's all get them early to provide more money fro the player budget. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordanhill Jag Posted May 28, 2019 Report Share Posted May 28, 2019 7 minutes ago, javeajag said: Why ? Because she stated there was no financial support from the Weirs and given that Posters who were passing on info onto the Forum that they had recieved via Private Message were stating it was paid for by the Weirs then a clear statement would quash any rumours Also the fact we got in excess of £300K from EUFA Money doesnt get a mention ?

She said the only support Colin weir gives the club is the academy so that’s clear unless she should also state the things he doesn’t financially support like the pies or grass seed ?! Unless someone can prove otherwise that’s that no comment on the ring fenced finance for the trading ground ? ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything to say about that? Nope - As I've not spread "misinformation " nor has she had a "pop" or alluded to anyone spreading misinformation - you just made that up - I've asked questions which as a Fan Im entitled to do ? I dont have access to info on our current finances ? This will only be clear at the Club AGM until then we dont know our financial position Im am however concerned about the amount of information that seems to be communicated via Direct Messages via Twitter according to some Posters - anything to say about that ?
