Ranaldo Bairn Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 Just correcting a few misapprehensions among some of our esteemed colleagues. There is no need to be upset. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Average crowds are 4,103 - up from 3,468 last season. Hospitality has generally been sold out. Sponsorship is up. We've also flogged some 10 year season tickets @ 5k a pop. As others have said the black hole is on target to be filled. We're not exactly awash with cash but won't be flirting with administration any time soon. It will probably take McGlynn a couple more transfer windows to sort out the mess left by the previous administration but we hope to bring you some navy blue pound at earliest convenience That doesn't appear to be a very good deal unless you expect to be playing in the Champions league within the next 3 seasons and all your glamour group games are included....... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how financial distress is measured as its a bit subjective, but if its right (and who really is surprised by this given the economy and issues clubs have faced over recent years), then the suggestion is that almost half the League are heading into money trouble. https://www.heraldscotland.com/business_hq/23206084.scottish-football-championship-showing-greatest-signs-distress/ I'd guess these are Caley, Morton, Arbroath & Hamilton? The ICT AGM took place last night and it can't have escaped our collective consciousness the outcomes that indicate we have a club on the precipice. Have you seen the reports of shareholders up in arms and the forecasts of foreclosure? No nor me. It's almost as if the Glasgow Herald is a joke publication. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That stopped in 1992 when your joke club never existed. The Herald is definitely a shite rag. Need to keep you updated with the news. Tsk tsk.

Stephen Malkmus Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 I was pleased to read that the club actually made a profit out of the concert situation last summer as we were paid up front for the hiring of the stadium. Any local business owners who may or may not have been fleeced in the process are statistically likely to be Old Firm fans who deserved it anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thumper Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 tbh it's been very strange not having at least one club in this division literally in the process of being dissolved for a while. Fortunately Dunfermline are coming up and whoever comes down from the top flight is pretty much guaranteed to have had their accountants setting their books on fire for the last month. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That post was from back in December before Silverbear got chased away (although apparently it was said at the AGM that they were back in touch trying to restart negotiations)… Hopefully we have more positive Rovers take over news soon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
