Dunfermline have posted profits most years AFAIK, the Motherwell admin must be approaching 20 years ago aswell! Too early to judge with M and M with regards to them being so good they're getting quoted for higher jobs, have they beaten another full time side with Falkirk yet? Alan Johnston blew away this division twice and well, he's just not very good. Fecks sake Motherwell were in admin for about a year released a pile of players and then carried on without any penalty whatsoever. That was Scottish football to a tee. If you don't pay your dues you should always be seen as cheats especially when absolutely no effort has been made since to pay those dues back. Would it not have been nice if the 0p in the pound brigade began to pay off the debt left behind once the clubs had been saved? No it was simply a case of feck them we don't have to bother so why should we. All these teams achieved a competitive advantage to the detriment of others by spending money they didn't have and that cash has never been paid back. The penalties were far too weak at the time which is why we saw clubs doing it not just once but on more than one occasion and carrying on as if he's haw happened. Meanwhile clubs like us are still held back by the effects of paying back all that cash twenty odd years ago.

Or clubs that put huge resources in to a team to win the league and ignored the obvious stadium issues in the hope that the rules would be changed to accommodate them. Was a competitive advantage gained by anyone in those circumstances...let me think? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we'd pumped enough money into our team to build a new stadium we would've been winning the premier League not struggling to get out the championship/division 1 at the time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only time we won the league we had already invested a fortune in the new stadium and even then we were completely shafted by the powers at be because it hadn't been completed.

Changed the rules to allow groundsharing, changed the rules to allow them to play half the season in Aberdeen and half the season in Inverness. Had two votes after the backlash of the first one which had kept ICT down. There was no second vote for us or flexibility of any kind. It was the self preservation league in full flow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. Scrambling for attention on here because there's bugger all happening on his own diddy teams thread. Ignore him, he'll eventually get the message that no-one on here has any interest in him and bore off somewhere else. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

falkirkthebigclub Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 We should've asked to play in that rum-soaked auld codgers head, seeing as we hold a rent-free, long term lease in the fucker. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
