D'Jaffo Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Really don't think Blair Henderson is all that. Might sound daft but I think it's just been one of they seasons for him. Capable of doing well in L1 but not good enough for Raith or Alloa imo. Still probably be our best striker though if he was at us... There’s no difference being able to play in L1 and play for Raith. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deadly Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 I've been a member of this for a while now, but its not as it was initially laid out - initially it was to contribute towards the youth/development team, which no longer exists. They are pretty much doing away with this are they not? As a current member I was sent a consultation paper on a rebranded version of this, in which some money might go towards wages of players and the rest will go to running costs of the club and stadium. I would consider contributing to a player fund to help improve the quality of players but if it's going towards the running of the club / stadium I wouldn't be so keen and think that may put people off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So would I, I wouldn’t be happy if the money was going towards improvements to the stadium. That’s what the owners of the stadium do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostZapper Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 If I recall correctly, the proposed rebranding was funding would to be split between first team wages, youth development team wages, and football operating costs, and after a certain level of funding reached, money could then be spent on projects determined by the board, which covered a variety of things like IT, turnstiles, stadium improvements etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ro Sham Bo Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 Unless the money was being ring fenced solely for funding the 1st team squad it wouldn't interest me. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paco Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 I’m sure the club must know they’re being idiotic by not explicitly saying it’s for the playing squad.Surely.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
South Stand Dynamo Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 I know it's not the first priority atm, but has anyone heard anything regarding our new kit? I'd heard at the last launch at the Strathearn that we were no longer being supplied by Genesis Sports, who do the Puma kits for us as they were asking the club to buy huge quantities at a time. I believed we were looking at Macron, as far as I was led to believe. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beastie Russell Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 Macron are good quality kits, used them for our boys club for years. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had heard Ayr myself, but it doesn't matter as no way he'd be sticking around league 1 after the season he's had. Needs to try his luck higher. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rover1990 Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 It's going to hard to take losing a player that scored 30+ goals for nothing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
