Parscelona Posted March 9, 2013 Author Share Posted March 9, 2013 Genuinely surprised at there being another proposal other than by TPC. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ro Sham Bo Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Leish hasn't been on the board since October, was still going in on match days for hospitality reasons as it's quite well known that a few folk only go for the hospitality at EEP because of him. He's a busy man, councillor, provost, head of the ML foundation and yet he's put it all on hold to try and save the club. Won't have a bad word against him. Good old Jim. What a trooper. Leishman is part of the problem, not the solution. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hughsie Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Leishman was MC at the Falkirk Academy sportsmans dinner last night and was on good form as usual. I did notice him texting and looking at the phone during the other speakers and he did cut a bit of a stressed figure. Understandable I guess. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enigma Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 (edited) Leishman is, after all, Labour councillor. They have a track record of racking up huge debts too. I would agree that he is part of the problem. Completely complicit in the overspending. If I was a pars fan I would be hounding him for him part in the clubs demise.

CowdenLoyal Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Was signing Falkingham meant to be a 'cheap' option? I only ask this as this was exactly my thoughts as well when the pars signed him however, I've been made aware of a fact that suggests otherwise. A new caravan for his ma' was the only extravagance. Aside from that, £900+ per week in wages. Suicidal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toddy Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Jesus christ. Listening to big Jim on the radio just now. £35k to players and staff, £134k to HMRC and the wages due again at the end of the month..£275k i think was the figure needed in total or no administration, straight to liquidation. Hope this share issue comes quickly to help the Pars and there are people able to sort this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob1885 Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Masterton was issued with a winding up order by HMRC and didn't tell Leishman, Leishman fallen out with Yorkston and Masterton. Puts beyond all doubt that Masterton is a total reptile 7 days to find £140k apparently, GM still looking to profit fom this whole mess 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mizfit Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Apparently less than 10 days to save the pars according to jim spence, if you are liquidated what future do you see? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately for you, I didn't pluck it from anywhere. Straight from a source who may come into contact with the pars wages from time to time. Go figure. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For what it's worth, it was a female who didn't even know what oor Josh did for a living. Then going on the info given it was simply a case of putting two and two together, to which explained a lot to said female. No skin off my nose whether you decide to believe it or not. I was as shocked as you probably would be too. Just pointing out that he wasn't a cheap signing (as many including I believed) onto what was already a sunken ship. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gregor147 Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Wasn't Leishman on the Board when the club were dishing out this money in the first place? He seems to get an easy ride from the fans. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
