Happy with this, on face value it looks like a nice mix between pragmatism and ambition.

As dissapointing a season as its been, I would have taken the option of 7th place with new ownership structure in place.

Probably the best we could have hoped for with hindsight. A few league places higher to boost the funds available would have been nice.

Youngmcnaughtleigh, must be busy washing the egg of his face after that announcement 😂😂😂😂

No I'm OK  I was only passing on what seemed a credible development given the details 

After some of the words o wisdom on here about formations and player signings etc there can't be much eggs left in kdy

As for Jimmy Nic along with  Mcglyn the pair maybe won a cup but left the club with plenty debt

Glad I've amused you tho no hard feelings

Can you get your source to tell us that we won't win the league next season and we won't sign a 30 goal per season striker?

Maybe a quiet word with your "source" or give them a shoeing for talking utter pish.

Haven’t read back the thread so not sure what this point is referring to, but managers will always ask for the signings/money they think they need. That’s their job. It’s not their job to balance the books of the football club or avoid debt. That’s firmly at the door of the Board/Chairman. So if there was debt after their spells it was 100% Penman and Sim’s fault.

Right, new owners are watching. Your lads better have their minds on the game and not on the beach.

You are in luck looks like we may have enough bodies to put 3 on the bench tonight.

Most of the debt accrued under Nicholl was in his second spell.

Penman was away by then. Alan Kelly to blame.

Some interesting ideas in there, increased hospitality and changes to the internals of the main stand sound really promising. Looking forward to seeing how that progresses. Personally, i'd love to have some sort of hospitality option that allows me to sit in the south stand during the game and then going back post-game etc.

Very good interview, Andy Barrowman and Ruaridh Kilgour spoke very well and positively. Nice to see younger people coming in. Fresh ideas and great to hear that our playing budget will be improved along with the stadium.
