No financial guru but surely if directors and non directors are dipping into their pockets our debt is not managable .We have a monthly rent on our stadium which i`m not sure if were servicing that fully Paid the operating costs for the season -

Club directors have injected their own cash in order to balance the books this season.Actually that should read two club directors and one non director.Who actually does the budgeting at the club?The usual SS policy applies at the club with the club operating with debt since 2005 but not willing to reveal its extent. -

30k We don`t do good deals.We punted three better players for less than that a number of years ago If the bucket rattling cries coming out of Starks Park are true our BoD will accept 5k for Baird -

Outwith the name calling Do you think so?based on what,posts on fantalk and on here,many who are the same but under a different guise?I have spoken to quite a number of supporters who think maybe hes time at Starks is up I wouldn`t be overly upset.I`ve enjoyed our lofty position this season but in general cant really say I`ve enjoyed the football that McGlynn had us playing. -

Agree,most of them looked like they had done an 8 hour shift on a building site prior to the game but if any team should have look jaded last night it should have been Dundee but they looked the opposite. -

Not blind McNeil had one oustanding save last night which was McGurnesque and a few other competent saves,however he did spill a few which on another day could have cost us. You can put your money on that Honestly,we`d need a virtual clear out -

Agree He turned a struggling team around in a lower division. Aberdeen are a struggling team, a poor squad of players and no money.If McGlynn went there he would be told to pish with the cock hes got -

Wales does not necessarily need to be played as an out and out striker IMO -

You`ll have no problem getting in at half time for nothing ..Theres no control over the smokers outside the South Stand at half time,not counted out and not counted in so you basically walk in at the smokers gate.I watch it happening on a regular basis -

Not being melodramatic The likes of Williamson has never been a good player and should never have been given a contract.Davidson should never have been given a contract,Simmons is a decent player if and when he feels like which is not very often.Wilson has gone backwards and can get forward all he wants but his crossing/delivery along with others is awful and not wanting to castigate the likes of Dyer and McBride so early but its only hearsay that they were/are good players. And breath Stop being so melodramatic -

The New Raith Rovers Thread
Rovers_Lad replied to Hank Scorpio's topic in Scottish Championship General Chatter
It helped pay off some of our debt eg our operating costs Agree. I wonder how many times he actually saw the likes of Dyer(aptly named IMO)and McBride play in competitive games before deciding to sign them 99.9% of supporters..The thing is though does McGlynn? If McGlynn goes with Simmons and Davidson on saturday his managerial/tactical skills have to come into question if they are not already -

He does have a learning disability which is why some people should actually sit back and think before trying to take the piss out of folk they obviously don`t know on forums.For all those that criticise fantalk on here it would appear many seem to visit and read whats posted and no doubt some actually post -

Granted but you then have to question the youth policy.Top goalscorer then released.He like many others do not get the opportunity and I don`t mean 15 mins here 15 mins there Simmons could be/is a good player when and if he feels like it,unforunately not often enough.As you say,has major discipine problems and unlikley to change as has been see through the season,doesn`t learn from one sending off to the next or from one booking to the next much the same as Davidson Agree hes scored some vital goals but hes overall contribution for me is not good enough Sorry but you don`t sign a player because were short for our reserve team,you sign a player on ability/potential or you rear another one or bring another one in
