    I presume the club could effectively go into hibernation? I can see a situation where all contracts are ended and staff laid off until the income comes back.

    Dreadful for those involved but the club itself will be able to rebuild (as everyone else will be in the same boat).

    Wages would have to be paid up until the contracts end or redundancy paid, not sure what impact that would have on finances, would the club scrape through? Maybe the board would have to fire in some additional cash.

    One thing is certain though, we wouldn’t be the only club in turmoil. Raith, Falkirk, Morton, Queens would all definitely be in a spot of bother. Alloa too if you listen to their chairman.

    In recent weeks we've beaten Inverness, Ross County, lost by the odd goal to an in form Premier league St Johnstone and had a really good display and result at Alloa. Yes, in among that lot we had a very poor performance and result against Morton and a mediocre performance and result at Firhill but let's not get all "old firm fans" here.

    I'd also say we were every bit as good as both Dundee sides in the last week so I honestly can't understand why anyone is angered or disappointed by our "recent" performances or results.

    We can also talk down the quality of the league as much as we want, but the reality is that on budget and club size the standard we need to aim for to compete at the top is ultimately the Dundee sides and irrespective of whether we're always playing fantasy football or not, the team is indeed continuing to compete and continuing to pick up points, honestly, what the hell do some expect from our club ??

    Very sensible post. Some people need a reality check.

    I thought Gillespie was a signing from the Irish league? Is he just on loan as well?

    I'm a wee bit concerned by the number of loans we're going to be relying on. It'll be fine for the run in but doesn't help us in the summer.

    I’m not too concerned, if the stories are true Kerr is already working on bringing guys in for next season.

    there are never really many decent players available in our budget in January and we probably used most of what was there to fund Houston’s transfer.

    Not to sure what point your making but if it’s to do with signing players, regardless of Colin Weirs involvement or not are our attendances not far off double yours - in which case it’s really not that puzzling that we can probably offer higher wages than yours and that alone can be a key factor in players leaving one club for another 

    regardless I’m eternally grateful for what colin did with setting up our youth academy and seemed a very down to earth guy who didn’t let his lottery wins get to his head.  RIP Colin, thoughts go to his friends and family at this very sad time 

    I’‘me just hoping the Partick Thistle clusterfuck continues.

    No idea what our crowds have to do with you signing players. You’ve had a significantly bigger budget than us for the last 3 windows and it’s not helped.

    My fear is the club could be in limbo whilst any Will is discussed and maybe challenged over the next few months, which includes his 65% stake in the club and 50% stake in the ground, plus obviously 3 black cats.

    As we are 3 days away from entering a transfer window any potential funding for this from either Colin or 3BC won’t happen now.

    My fear is his stake gets sold off to someone else to fund the estate to the family

    Here’s hoping.
