Fife Saint

Part one complete. We now enter murkier water where the dark arts are more treacherous.

Roughly 32% combined I believe

We'd survive without Sevco, we'd make cutbacks but we'd survive. We've been a yo-yo club since I was a boy and we evolve to suit. Would survival be worthwhile though? If Sevco waltz into the 1st then the game's fucked. Utterly fucked. So, either way It's a case of working out how fucked each club is and moving forward. I want to know what Doncaster has done to ensure we're never caught in this position again. We need transparency, after all it's us who will subsidise this sham.

Sorry, what the f**k?

Yeah, in a parallel universe where things happen normally.

A Parachute payment and max two year deals.

However this goes the Sky contract MUST be renegotiated in the interest of the league's future integrity. Whoever signed off this one needs their jotters.

I like Gilmour, he strikes me as a decent man with good intentions. However, and this goes for my club too, if we can't see out this storm there are 30 odd other clubs who would gladly accept the challenge. If this goes through we're utterly fucked until the end of time. Not just a season or two.

Odd, the other propaganda said the contract would remain the same for next season.

Thanks for that. Did he give specific reasons for why these options were best rather than normal procedure of newco to apply and enter at Sfl3 level?

I've got enough respect for the St Mirren support to not comment on the latest news. I'd be keen to know their thoughts though...

Couple of things: Why are Dundee abstaining from the proposed vote? The most important people in all the forecast scenarios will be the fans, when will we see the forecast workings and have they factored in the collapse of all clubs through disillusionment?

Yep, Saints confirmed no again according the boy from Stv. So I should think, we're the best run club in the country after decades of winning NOTHING.

Green knows better than anyone that the fans are the cornerstone of any club. He's quite ambivalent, from what I've heard, about where Rangers play. It seems to be certain areas of the press who have their knickers in a twist.

If true, would that not be in breach of UEFA missives? Talking to a non-member club and conspiring to gain entry?

No idea, great entertainment though.

Pipe down, Nigel. This is no time for panty-wetting.

You need to give notice to leave. Not to go bust.

They've gone. Don't let that stop you.

Remember, way back when? Weatherseal's owner, what's his name? Who are these other corporate partners? Fair play to Gilmour, sounds like he's at least being honest.

What sponsors?

Yeah, although It depends on how you interpret the answers he actually did give.

This might seem far-fetched but I wonder if Bomber Brown has inadvertently rumbled Green and H/D.

Ewing Grahame's broadside on Longmuir was a bit out of character, was it not? He gave it to him tight.

We're entering the end-game in terms of press coverage now. Traynor and co. have shown their hand. I wonder if we'll look back in 3 years time to his article today with mirth or the horror of not listening to Big Jim. My own thoughts are we'll have Rangers back in the SPL again by then and we will see another extended period of Celtic and Sevco domination. Pretty much where we are now but with smaller clubs suffering from disillusioned punters spending their Saturdays elsewhere.
