If I was Kenny or David I'd refuse to have any further talks with these duplicitous arseholes. You know, they are perhaps daft enough to want that outcome too. Someone muted earlier (BPM?) that some of them might not actually want to go. They have had the best part of a couple of decades enjoying hospitality in places where it’s by invite only, and that might be hard to give up. That could only happen if they are really really disconnected from what’s going on around them...... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at how our board have behaved recently though I wouldn't be putting money on it. Do you think we’ll end up signing the same level of shit as last season ?? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We only have January to go on, and those signings ultimately kept our league position exactly where it was when they all arrived. If whatever we end up with for the coming season doesn’t win the league, then by any measure, we have brought in worse than what we had (again). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Kinnear Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 Do you think we’ll end up signing the same level of shit as last season ??Very much doubt we will be an attractive proposition to decent players. If you were a player with a couple of offers on the table you would look at the mess we are in and run a mile. Money always talks as the career of a footballer is relatively short but I can't see McKinnon or whoever is in charge having a great budget. I know a decent amount of ST holders and none have renewed so far and aren't whilst this mob are still at the helm. Low ST sales must impact the budget but for me it's worth it to get rid of Ritchie and Co. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we get off to a bad start the crowds will plummet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whats going on, are we about to apply to the league to withdraw from the BetFred cup? It comes down to the club being sold to new owners. Accountants will insist on a clean set of books Assets v Debts = value of the club. accountants have a responsibility for due diligence otherwise they could get sued. Any financial commitment such as squad budget comes off the bottom line. No budget = No new players until the new owners legally have the club with a new set of books. Then and only then will a squad budget be allocated. Everybody involved will have signed a non disclosure order, that is why McKinnon has not uttered a word and no signing rumours. What a mess ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AL-FFC Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 Thing i dont get MR statement said that things have gathered pace faster than they expected that was last Friday, 2 bids withdrawn over the weekend due to them pissing about, but they held off because an interested party hadnt tabled a bid they are either confident of that or their bluffing is shite. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hannibal Lecturer Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 Not a peep from McKinnon for weeks, I wonder what he’s thinking about the whole mess from the MSG and the BoDs. Are we even close to signing a player? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm now thinking the board have no intention of selling up and leaving and to be quite honest I've gave up caring about it. f**k knows what team we will have next season, not that I'm likely to go and watch them now! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stainrod Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 We only have January to go on, and those signings ultimately kept our league position exactly where it was when they all arrived. If whatever we end up with for the coming season doesn’t win the league, then by any measure, we have brought in worse than what we had (again). I can’t help thinking that if we had signed Scott Macdonald (and he was training with us) instead of Patrick we would have stayed up . Signing policy has been horrendous for years now .can hardly think of a decent player we signed . Best players were academy graduates or guys like Leah and vaulks who were already with us. Not counting loaners who has been our best signing in the last 3 years? Mark Kerr 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
