Livingston - all the threads merged


Recommended Posts

I just assumed that you'd have to collect - when I paid for mine I was told that they would phone people when they were ready. It may be that they give you the choice. I had intended to nip in tomorrow so will ask the question then.

I think they said it would be this week they would be available for collection. I was told the same thing in regards to being phoned.

I'll phone tomorrow and ask about mine as I'm doing absolutely f**k all during the week, right now.

I'm surprised it's taken this long TBH as everyone knew he had fingers in all those pies. His East Fife shares were put in his 11-year-old niece's name to try and disguise it.

His name is always missing from the annual returns and list of directors yet he is the main shareholder and pulls the strings. How was he able to sack Nixon when he doesn't appear on any paperwork?

Livingston investor Neil Rankine has called for the the president of the Scottish Football League to resign.

Rankine alleges that Brown McMaster, who is also on the Scottish FA board, held shares in Partick Thistle while being a Stenhousemuir board member.

McMaster had moved from Partick to Stenhousemuir, but had retained shares in Partick in the name of other family members. He resigned, though without directly citing the shares issue.

Going by the quotes it appears McDougall said that McMaster should resign if guilty of holding shares in two clubs and that doing so would be hypocrisy...

As MCL says, it was the story for years that Rankine's own schoolgirl niece was a substantial shareholder in East FIfe, IIRC.

Tbf, we shouldn't jump to conclusions as to his schoolgirl niece, by putting 2+2 together and getting an answer.

If I was a schoolgirl with substantial sums of money to invest, a penchant for Methil on the Fife Riveira, and a love of soccer, then I might well be inclined to takeout a substantial shareholding in East Fife FC, in between netball lessons and watching repeats of Glee! on MTV.

Just because my uncle happened to have interests in Livingston FC and Dumbarton FC (allegedly), and dazzle-effect trousers, it could be very unfair to assume I was not the real investor.

As dodgy as it is, I wouldn't keep waving the "schoolgirl shareholder" thing around, this sorry mess has been dragging on for so long now, that she's actually in her twenties now!!!

The day before a new league campaign begins, and this happens. When will we ever learn.

Hate to be the bearer of bad news HJ, but his troosers were decidely dazzle free today. In fact he looked every inch the Florida golf retiree.

Dumbarton and East Fife will they not have explaining to do albeit to a lesser degree

The bottom line says not at the moment although that, of course, could change if he is found guilty.

NB. Please note that neither East Fife nor Dumbarton FC are under investigation and there is no suggestion of improper conduct on their part at this stage."
