ScottishLoon Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 Football wise be appreciative that Elgin look a shambles right now and Ross Forbes will guarantee at least 1 goal of the season contender. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I detest the Board and the contempt with which they treat the support. I hate the way the CIC is flawed and “ownership” is a con. ”Your Club be a part of it” ”Help make important decisions”…… laughable. I hate the fact that Duffy is still the manager and they have tried to con us into thinking he’s not. I feel sorry for Brian McLean as he’s been set up to carry the can when he’s most likely had no say in who has signed and no say on tactics or team selection. I’m embarrassed that we had only 2 outfield players available on the bench in a league cup match and so early in the season. I’m still fuming we lost the chance to win the title in the promotion year due to an admin error. I’m interested in the rumours re another admin error in relation to the Goodwillie transfer to Raith which cost the club a lot of money. I’m pissed off we can’t organise a home kit and it’s being sold as a return to the glory days- it’s not an anniversary of anything which is when these things tend to happen- just another cover up. I’m annoyed we now train on Mondays and Wednesdays and on a different surface than we play our home games on. Is that enough to let you know you are not alone out there? What's the admin error for the DG transfer? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had heard that there was a boo boo with his contract extension which meant he would have been a free agent in the summer. Everyone was under the impression he had that year to go. Not so sure RR would have pressed ahead had they known he’d be free in the summer. Quite strong rumours of how it was hushed up so the transfer with original fee proceeded. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SouthLanarkshireWhite Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 The Annual Accounts will show whether a transfer fee was received , so fairly straightforward for someone with access to those to confirm one way or the other. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A transfer fee was received- but don’t forget, it was “undisclosed”- so not possible to know whether any part of it went elsewhere Edited July 17, 2023 by Harry Hood Fan Club Typo 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clyde01 Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 Looks like the tightening of licensing criteria could make it harder for teams to get promoted to the SPFL and may even mean there is no play-off at all. A decision that I find disgusting btw, despite our precarious position and the potential benefit to us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The licensing means things like having a certain size/slope of pitch, cover for 500 spectators, a certain standard of floodlight, disability requirements etc, as well as other stuff such as having a doctor present at games. If clubs aren't able to fulfil those criteria then they should be nowhere near the league. I believe a grace period will be allowed in any case should teams not meet the standard. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Licensing obviously beneficial in the long run but raising the bar being pushed through by a group led by a league 2 chairman who has previously pleaded for relegation to be removed doesn’t sit right. Particularly when we have clubs as high as the championship just now on an entry level license who wouldn’t currently meet the criteria. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some clubs will throw all their resource at players, Johnstone Burgh being the latest, whilst others upgrade facilities to make it a better experience for fans i.e. decent toilets, cover for away fans in winter and so on. If you are allowed to ignore minimum standards then clearly you will be able to spemd more on players and climb the leagues. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
