You may be right (and I agree with you about the use of replacement cost for valuing assets). However that is not my reading of the situation. The assets are reported at cost but the accounting policies of the latest accounts do not make clear if they have employed historic or replacement cost. My reading of @Bring Your Own Socks comments are the increase in buildings value in the latest accounts is due to the additional costs that have actually been incurred on the Lesser redevopment debacle rather than inflating the existing asset value.

I think I'm correct in saying that the valuation will include the full actual cost of building Lesser, including anything wasted on paying the erstwhile contractors.

Like any specialist building that can't easily be turned into something else, the real worth will be the land it sits on. 

If it wasn't for all the problems that might have arisen (repayment of grants and dealing with possible contamination) we would have been telling the SFA to feck themselves and move to Murrayfield or wherever and sold the site for housing.

But that's all water under the bridge and we have to deal with what we have.

I was kind of hoping they might have had a couple of potential signings with them on their Northern Ireland trip.

Well they may well have been but no news/pics from the trip  so we all need to keep guessing and hoping that this will be the week when signings are announced but then again...

The week ahead:

Did you head to Pink hospitality? We want to hear from you

Irish Stew…pendous Hospitality v Celtic

Going Back to Our Roots- 50% off

Steak Pie Saturday- 4 weeks to go 

 

All rounded off by them finally building up excitement for a signing on Friday morning, only for it to be a 16 year old B team player.

If I was really trying to be optimistic then I'd say the reason we haven't released photos is because they don't want to show all the new players before they've been announced

pero tengo muchas dudas as they say in Spain

I've just seen something about Paton being linked with Hibs on one of these 'championship news' pages. I'm really hoping there's nothing in it, but if there is I'd hope we're charging at least double what we got for Murray. Worried that we just can't get a replacement for a guy like Paton, and I don't know that McLeish is good enough yet

I hope this is nothing but a coincidence, but I was told over the weekend that hibs were interested in Mcleish and another player we had on loan last season, don't know who though.But if what you're saying is true,it kind of makes sense, Liam craig,malky mcckay .We need at least 2 new strikers asap

Buzzing about the Oracle Law Solicitors and Document Data Group announcements.

Great signings for this level. Can’t wait to see them in action!

You shouldn't be so cynical. How do you think we are funding all the development work at the City stadium...?

 

 

... Oh wait...

 

... & Wait

Yup, zero news on new signings.  Would have had more respect had they had something about Pink hospitality in the 'things to look back on' section.

To be fair, there's absolutely no need to pre-announce signings that you're probably going to tease on the day as well, especially at a time when it's expected we'll be bringing fresh faces in; hopefully that's the only reason there's no mention of it then. I'll be very disappointed if we don't have at least a couple in for the friendly tomorrow night.
