east fife for life Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 Hope Austin performs well for the bairns! Glad to see he's settled in well and banging in the goals. Good luck for the season ahead. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Austin looks the stand out imo, pace, strength and hunger.Apparently gasparrato was class against shelbourne but against Albion rovers he looked shakyKidd was alright against rovers, nothing amazing but looks a decent right back.Quite like the look of craigen. Scored a cracker against shelbourne and had a decent display against rovers. Really excited too see how we crack on. Think the first 11 should be RogersKiddWatsonGasparrato Leahy CraigenKerrVaulksSibbsAustinMcHugh 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not 'bust' as you pointed out. We come up this year having made a profit, where's the previous season we overspent by quarter of a million. Thankfully we're up and we'll stay up. For most Pars fans consolidation in this league is the aim this year, although AJ reckons top 4 is his ambition. We budgeted for gates of 2,500 last season and averaged over 3,400. This time last year we had just over 1,900 Season Tickets sold this year we've sold around 2,700 to date. The clubs Life-Line sees over 2000 fans putting in £20 each a month. The fans own 55% of the club and have representation on the board through an elected Patron. We refer to those on the board as Patrons. The buzz around the club is truely amazing on match days now. Bars are packed out, hospitality sold out and visiting fans made welcome. Local businesses are engaged and supply match day catering for hospitality. All pushing social inclusion within the community. Our Pars Disabled Supporters Club are raising £55k for a lift installation and are already £6k up. Our club is one of Scotlands leading clubs when it comes to catering for the disabled. Many lessons have been learned from our descent into the horrible situation a few seasons back. We took it on the chin, rolled up our sleeves and fought to keep the club alive, together we did it and together we'll progress. The quality of the people in charge is second to none. They've made personal sacrifices but are already promoting within to ensure succession planning for the future. All good in the hood as they say. You'll enjoy having us back because deep down you fuckin love playing us. Have your accounts been published ? Id have imagined a loss or at best small profit tho this info is usually revealed when accounts are revealed end of tax year, so would be interesting to know where you got the profit info ? I also struggle to see why fans would pay an extra £20 a month to a club not so long ago went bust, throwing money down a well comes to mind tho we are in fife.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knee jerk reaction Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 Was at the Stirling uni game last night, basically a development team with a couple of the new signings and Rodgers in goal. Austin scored and I thought Henderson looked good, maybe not the strongest opposition we'll face this season but looks like we have a squad this season, allows players with small niggles to be rested and Houston to freshen the team occasionally. I felt (despite some good results including in the playoffs) the team were running on empty for the last month or so of the season. We look stronger this season but time will tell COYB! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've achieved a lot over the last 3 years or so since our deserved demise. No hiding from the shit we were left from the previous debacle of a board. We have worked hard together and will go from strength to strength to ensure the club survives for future generations. Sorry to the rest of you Falkirk guys for the continued promotion of planet Pars. Just need to educate dust for brains. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No mention of 2000 fans putting in £20 a month, which is a yearly amount of 480,000. I'm surprised that it's not a bigger profit with your claims.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shooboax Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 A profit thats the point. First time in a couple of decades. Its the relevance of it. Managing responsibly. We're in good hands and with fan ownership. It will become all the more relevant for other Scottish clubs in the near future. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadwell Dog Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 Bit surprising that with over 50 % ownership but only one bod fan member. Seems a bit of an under representation. We have a fans rep on the bod despite having far less a collective percentage of the club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked the look of the young centre half, goalkeeper 2nd half had a couple of good saves and the number 17 (who looks around 12 years old and 5 foot nothing) looks to have a bit of skill about him. sorry that I threw team sheet away so not sure of the names! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lewfal Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 Gary Harkins free to go to another club. Take him? He might be the creative midfielder we crave? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RC55 FFC Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 Gary Harkins free to go to another club. Take him? He might be the creative midfielder we crave? He'd be a good signing for any Championship team. Wouldn't shock me to see him at St Mirren. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think they were too keen on him the first time he was there. I'd take him, but I doubt we could afford him and I'm not sure where exactly we'd fit him in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
