Swello Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Firstly, I hope this bizarre situation doesn't completely f**k Accies as it would be a shite way for their run in the top league to end. Secondly, this feels like someone has made a Galaxy-class f**k-up and so there may be some P&B merriment that lasts for some years.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harry94 Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 On a serious note (maybe someone who handles large sums of money as a job), does this thing normally happen? I would have thought that there would normally be standard insurance procedures for things like this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
accies1874 Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Inside job IMO. They know someone is snooping around so offload all their dodgy money. Or something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've worked in personal banking and you deal with the odd person who has an absolute fuckload of cash but it's very difficult to get it out of one account to another unless someone has all the info needed.

capt_oats Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 I'd take a guess at it being something to do with Rojano. Argentine forward who's most recently played in Bolivia, signed on August 22nd with a view to playing against Celtic on Sept 8th after international clearance goes through. Mid-October and still no sign of him in the team. Sounds like a fake agent style stitch up if there has been some sort of signing on fees paid to an intermediary. Tbh it's the only sort of scenario I can see that would come close to be able to be described as elaborate as opposed to just regular run of the mill fraud. The mental picture of an Ocean's 11 style job happening at NDP is quite something though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely if we were paying any money for Rojano, it wouldn't be enough to cripple the club financially if the cash disappeared? The club need to be as transparent with this as they legally can be as people will just assume the worst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For someone to take a substantial amount of cash from the club someone has to have known how much was in there in the first place, it's suspicious as f**k to me.

Swello Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 [baseless speculation] If it's a fraud involving the club's bank accounts, it's likely to be someone who already has access to them rather than some outside entity [/baseless speculation] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
