Broken Algorithms Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Looks like a good few people on DAFC are starting to sit up and take notice up the potential oblivion of the Pars. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poet of the Macabre Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Not listened to the song yet (I may change my mind after hearing it) but if it's the players singing then the aim should have been for it to have been as cheesy and shit as humanely possible. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've certainly managed that, although I only managed 45 seconds of it myself so I don't know if it gets worse than what I've heard. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is really shit. There are a few bits of famous Pars commentary played (Marc Millar penalty vs Airdrie, Macca vs Hibs) but f**k me sideways. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GordieBoy80 Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 But did it? The youth coaches are part of the U20 set-up as well. I'm not going to argue about why the money was actually given to the club, I just want to know if it has actually been used for the purpose it was donated for. Apparently it wasn't. That's a very good question, how can it be proven that the money donated in good faith went to the right place ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mij Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 My favourite part is the tiny tears regarding the 'worst case' of only having the Under 20 squad available for matches: other clubs have had to field complete pub-team level players in order to survive, Clyde have fallen through the ranks owing to the shite they could afford as they paid their debt. Not to mention the actual worst case scenario, which is Dunfermline folding, and an all too real prospect given the hopeless levels of debt owed all round. As much as the title race may well be interesting right now, if the shit hits the fan then performances on the park should be the least of anyone's worries. Greenie Dunfermline like other clubs continue to rely on pulling supporters heart strings in the hope of bailing them .Its got to come to and end and its time directors took responsibilty for their financial mismanagement. If its some future member of the board is feeding someone the info(doesnt auger well) to put out to supporters that its 200k to clear the debt I`d hazard a guess its more than that 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 Time for a reality check: http://dafc.info/for...27364&t=1227364 Is the person who posted that actually a Pars fan? 'Best team we've had in 10 years'? I seem to recall a certain era from 2001-2004 being superior. Also 'best manager in 28 years'?! Paton, Calderwood and Leishman (1st time) were all far better. Of course we do have a very good side and a good manager, but nowhere near the teams and management of certain previous ones. Also someone posted that the board have told us as much as the Hearts board have told their fans, perhaps even more. I despair that there are some fans who are still so fucking stupid. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P.C Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 (edited) Apparently the £4k cheque was only handed over today. Presumably, this means the U20 players will get some more money put into their bank accounts at some point this week? Btw, for anyone who hasn't read it on .net - the U20 monthly wage budget is £10.5k! If that figure is anywhere near true its shocking. That is a shitload of cash for an under 20 squad. What is your breakdown for squads? Ie U21, U19 etc just to clarify what squads do you have not how much they are paid Edited December 4, 2012 by P.C 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is your breakdown for squads? Ie U21, U19 etc just to clarify what squads do you have not how much they are paid According to their site, they have a squad of 19 for the U20s. So that means an average wage of about £450 (if the £10.5K figure is true) per month? Seems an awful lot for a youth squad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poet of the Macabre Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 Have no idea how much the Under 20's are paid but I'd imagine they're paying them more now in order to stop losing them like we did with Kevin McHattie. It would make sense for this Board though. Do something right with the switch of focus to young players and then proceed to blow a shit load of cash on them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poet of the Macabre Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 I know how I'd react if my boss sat me down and told me I'd only be getting 25% of my pay. I'd tell him where to go. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
