Turning over £6m is small fry in business terms, for comparison the government defines an SME as having a turnover of <£50m
Indeed and I'd class STFC as a medium sized biz. As MooneyRaker states, it's no Daisy's Tea Room but nor is it AWS. I know you're not giving them a free pass as such but there are many that seem to throw that kind of charitable/community card around when it comes to inefficiencies at the Club. Quite clearly for a ''larger'' small or ''smaller'' medium sized business for these things they can and should be doing things a bit better and more professionally. Mind you, there are larger businesses that still operate completely via paper and when several football clubs still use a fax {I really want to hope the ''fax'' is just satire at transfer deadlines but I've a nagging hunch that they very much are still in operation as a primary comms feature - as if they've never realised that things like AdobeSign and DocuSign aexist} then should antiquated/minimal operations at STFC really be as shocking? Maybe not, but I think many are basing it on how it seems to have declined/minimised under the current ownership. School Report: Can and should do better with good recruitment in the right places.

I don't think the club deserve any sort of free pass, just it seems that for ever fan giving them an apparent free pass there is an equal and opposite number desperate to jump on just about anything for a bloody good moan. Ultimately there is only a finite amount of money there and I suspect the club work on the basis that anything they can get for free leaves cash for investment elsewhere.
I haven't worked a proper legal case for a year or more, but even then faxes were used a lot as they meant that legal documents couldn't be altered, its also why often when you see judgement documents in PDF form they have obviously been printed in hard copy and then scanned rather than converted into a PDF electronically!

I saw an ad saying that fans only have until x date to change their ST seats otherwise there is a cost of £15 - I always thought they did this type of thing for free as long as where people wanted to move to was available.

Judging by that we must be nudging 5,000 which is astonishing after last year.
