I'm sure there will be over 1000 by Saturday. More like 1,500 I reckon based on our own sales for away games this season. About 50% of folk generally seem to wait til Thursday/ Friday/ Saturday morning to buy. For example our games at Airdrie and Raith went from 900 at this point to 1,700 on the day 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bridge of allan bairn Posted 22 hours ago Share Posted 22 hours ago I wouldn't be surprised if there's some Falkirk fans in the away end. I can't see not 1 Falkirk fan wanting to buy a ticket with 5 days to kick off after we sold out our home allocation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd imagine we'll have somewhere between 1000 and 1500, lower end I'd imagine and poor for a derby but it's just the feeling of the fans just now. Two years of crap football, lack of quality and cutting edge. Do that many folk still get paid weekly? Genuinely have no idea as I've always been monthly except a couple of jobs when I was much younger. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few folk will be paid on the last Friday of the month rather than the last working day of the month. And do pensioners not get their enormous pay 4 weekly, jammy folk. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then a mortgage came along and I asked to be paid monthly, was told no. I suddenly had to grow up and take the responsibility that came with being a man of property. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to get paid on the Thursday before the last working Friday, which meant if the last day of the month was a Friday I'd have to wait til the day before then, but if the last day of the month was a Thursday I'd get paid a week before. Mental. Played havoc with budgeting etc. Was even worse then Good Friday was near the end of the month as that wasn't a working Friday so we'd sometimes get paid very early that month then would have a near 6 week gap til the next pay day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suggesting none of the current directors will remain on the board seems very unlikely, unless Pars United end up selling their shares - which would be a surprise. Pars united might not have a lot of shares to work with unless gbmh sell their shares, but keep the loan note, which would be very odd.

DAFC Fußball can force them sell to the new owners as per the articles of association that have been in place since they first bought in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Part of adulting, one of my previous employers used to pay us early at Christmas then the next pay day wasn't until the last Friday in January, cue the "we've got to wait 6 weeks until oor next pay" well, actually, no, cause the pay you have just received you shouldn't have got until the end of December so if you choose to start spending it immediately and live on beans on toast for January that is on you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All very strange. What are they accusing us of? They are the fannies who've spent a fortune they don't have maintaining a club way beyond it's level. Don't they owe something like 3.5 million? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A crazy amount, built up when the club was in the premier League and championship and did well in the cups. The guys responsible for that deserve their baws booted. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely feel for the Players & families dropped into the abyss nine weeks before Xmas. Local firms going to the wall and no doubt the club will resurrect itself debt free…….. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing holier than thou about it but if someone's going to have a go at how my club is run they probably shouldn't do it while theirs is going down the pan. I'm off to get them telt right now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
