Maybe, but given that the Council are ploughing three quarters of a million in to Holm Park and it will be an artificial surface and a community stadium etc etc. . . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jan Vojáček Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 I'd rather see us play on a public park than in a shared 'community stadium' with the Bankies. I'm not a huge fan of leisure centre stadiums as it is, but sharing one that isn't even A) ours or B) in Dumbarton is a vile thought. Going to be a very interesting few months now though. I wonder if Brabco knew (or at least had a strong feeling) that this might happen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been keeping an eye on the Bankies thread and there hasn't been any mention of that falling through - they seem to think the upgrades to Holm Park will help them in their bid to become a good senior side. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howlin' Wilf Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Considering the yards of conversations and racour on here before about Dalmoak, I'm surprised that the last 24 hours' news hasn't elicited more response. These two news items (Rankine v Brabco and the naw to Dalmoak) are probably the most serious threat to the club's future since 1996. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Parr Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Is the Rankine case in relation to the unpaid £200k story that various media outlets carried a few years ago? Without more detail it's difficult to offer much comment. That the action isn't being raised directly against the football club itself is one small crumb of comfort. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These two news items (Rankine v Brabco and the naw to Dalmoak) are probably the most serious threat to the club's future since 1996. Not much for us to talk about really. If Brabco are forced to pay up then it's on them to find the money. If they then look to use the club to raise that money we'll maybe have something to comment on. I fail to see how the club could be used though, other than selling it - but that doesn't fit with their profit making scheme. Where would that stand legally? Selling a club to pay off the guy you bought said club from? On the Dalmoak article, the planning meeting hasn't even been carried out and won't be until the 21st so it looks to me like the Lennox have got some info beforehand and printed it. The meeting on the 21st will be a recommendation for refusing planning, not an outright refusal. Roddy and Chris were fairly open and honest at the last meeting that they felt it would be refused, so it's not much of a shock. I understand the councillors will meet on the 28th to decide whether they accept the recommendation for refusal or override that recommendation and grant consent. The 28th is where we'll have a better picture of where the future lies, I expect there will be plenty to comment on then. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s against Brabco 736 whose only asset is its shares in DFC whose only asset is the stadium and land. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottylintonstowel Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Oh dear this is bad news about Christian Nade being arrested. We are all innocent before being found guilty but will he be picked for the team in the meantime. Hopefully the big man can walk away from this charge with his head held high and an innocent man. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I googled "Nade arrested" and it appears there was an article on the Daily Record suggesting Nade had been arrested on Sunday afternoon on a assault charge and is expected in court. But, when I click on the article it appears to have been removed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
