Enigma Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Just copy the Gers. You'll be debt free by the KO of next season and you can also keep history and all. Liquidation has a new meaning you know. You're assuming the pars would receive the same special treatment as Sevco. I wouldn't be so sure. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ebanda's Handyman Services Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 http://www.dafc.co.uk/articles/20130228/manager-on-thursday_2208031_3092986 This has to be the most honest, coherent thing to come out of DAFC for a long time. Grim reading. Match day rivalries put to one side, I genuinely hope that the Pars get out of this mess. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Get to f**k Masterton you utter c**t. Any Pars fan that continues to support this coward is a fucking p***k with no morals and no brains and has my utter disgust and contempt. Feeling will definitely be made known at the game tomorrow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pineapplesoulton1 Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 So sad, I remember Scott saying he would shut down Cappielow like the shipyards. Hang him and the daughter, na don't , its too good for them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cowden til i die Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Feel sorry for the fans. That's about the extent of my sympathy. Obviously hope you get through this as no club in Scotland deserves to die (except Celtic, Sevco and probably Livi and Airdrie). Good luck but it's looking like a Clyde type situation as a best possible outcome. Time for a new start. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Parr Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 If Dunfermline were able to limp through to the end of the season, how would their fans react to the idea of going part-time? It strikes me that a great many clubs in Scotland operate under a full-time delusion. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broken Algorithms Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 If Dunfermline were able to limp through to the end of the season, how would their fans react to the idea of going part-time? It strikes me that a great many clubs in Scotland operate under a full-time delusion. I agree with that. Too many clubs and fans live under the impression that we should be looking at a large number of full time teams. There just isn't the market for it. Of course, thanks to the SPL, clubs are now left with full time infrastructure and expected to pay for that with both lower crowds and possibly part time football. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slacker Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 So were/are they holding money back from players? Where's this extra 30% suddenly appeared from? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Islay Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 So were/are they holding money back from players? Where's this extra 30% suddenly appeared from? That's what I would like to know. We will never find out though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gingapar Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 That's what I would like to know. We will never find out though. And if they were to say, no one would believe it anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAFC Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 What a tube. Almost even more insulting to then get more from nowhere. Oh, I had the money all along but seen as you're threatening strike I suppose I'll have to give it to you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobBairn1876 Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Now begs the question, how much more is he keeping back? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larbert_Par Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Still not acceptable, and the very fact it seems that the threat of strike action has convinced the BoD to part with another 30% is ridiculous in itself. The players and staff should be absolutely fuming. I know I would be if I were in their position. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Moonster Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Has this stopped the strike action then? I'd probably be even more inclined to strike now knowing that he's holding back money if I was a player. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paco Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 So were/are they holding money back from players? Where's this extra 30% suddenly appeared from? Correct. If I hads to guess, the players will have been threatening to strike on Saturday, so the board have shat it. Unless it's come out of someone's pocket then I'd be livid. Nobody else seems to have mentioned but an average of £500 a week? I know nothing about First Division wages but that seems extraordinarily high. Given the Pars have some young players and a few foreign players on the cheap I'd hate to think what that says about the wages the likes of Gallacher, Barrowman, Cardle etc will be on. Couldn't they have just let them walk in January? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigster00 Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 I agree with that. Too many clubs and fans live under the impression that we should be looking at a large number of full time teams. There just isn't the market for it. Of course, thanks to the SPL, clubs are now left with full time infrastructure and expected to pay for that with both lower crowds and possibly part time football. I would find it extremely sad if the club with the highest attendances in the First Division could not sustain a full-time squad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
