  1. To me the fact that he wasn't even in the country on the day that he was supposed to clear the debt/ buy the stadium speaks volumes. I know he is due back today and I will be interested (as will a few others) to see if this happens. The council appear to be pretty firm that there will now be no new payment plans agreed and that they are unwilling to speak to Massone (unless all debts to them are cleared in full). As if that weren't enough for the supporters the Inland Revenue and Police are now claiming to be out of pocket, the I.R for a 'six figure sum'. Unless Massone is only turning up to give the keys to the stadium over to somebody else, or has a suitcase full of cash to clear the debt I can only see a long and drawn out end to this saga.
  2. I know its hardly the gospel of truth but I read in the Sun this morning that the players have been told not to turn up for pre-season training starting on Monday. I know that with no coaches it would be nearly impossible to have a structured approach to training but surely the club would be looking at getting players back to do some basic warm ups and bounce games for basic fitness?? Also, it was interesting to read that the SFL/ SFA will only permit a takeover if all debts to outstanding creditors and players/ staff are paid in FULL prior to the takeover being signed off. I like many think Livi may crawl to the beginning of the season but I reckon they'll lose more players before the season starts and will have a very weakened team. Even although most SPL and Div 1 teams have little or no cash they must be sniffing about anyone half decent who's left.
  3. So Livi (or Massone) have found £10k to pay the council this months dues buying them some time. Can someone please confirm to me whats due next week? Am I right in thinking that they will be due £280k to the council and the players wages...has the leccy been played off or the Hegarty situation been resolved?? Its just jumping from deadline to deadline at the minute. If Massone has the cash then it should be used to pay off the bills, then he could sell the club for an amount as a 'debt free' asset...until then no-one with any sense will be near Almondvale to pick up the pieces...its cheaper to wait and see what happens!
  4. Personally I think they would ask Airdrie to go back to SFL 1 and if there were any issues with Saturday fixtures they would request a Sunday game instead, same for the SFL 2 space. Thi would mean a spare place in the league and then Spartans would get the league place. On the subject of Massone I can't believe this guys for real, Jeremy Beadle (RIP) must be about to pop out of somewhere at sometime. I actually sat open mouthed when he said it was a deliberate act to turn of the leccy to teach the fans a lesson...who does that?!?!?! As has been posted (possibly on Livi Lions) once the cash comes in for Griffiths what then? It'll pay for the power...maybe...but what about the council back rent, the 'agreement' to buy the ground. Hegarty and Robertsons compensation, wages for this current month never mind next season... Sorry Livi, i think this could be game over!
  5. As observerfromafar has asked, what did happen with the 12th June date, also with the court cases in the small claims court and also his personal appearance. There seems to have been quite a few deadlines passed with no comment at all... I've previously stated I have no desire to see any club struggle financially but there is still a huge chasm between the fans and i feel that this will definately hinder any attempts to solve anything should the worst happen.
  6. FWIW I have the opinion that any sale to McDougall wouldn't go through as Massone is probably unwilling to 'open the books' at this time. As EdinburghLivi has stated, the level of debt is not really known and if McDougall was to walk away even after offering a £ then it would be very apparant, very quickly that Livi aren't in the shape that Massone has stated. Parscelona - Sorry if i'm being thick but if McDougall is on the board because we owe him money, surely if he left he'd want it back? Surely that would affect us...dependent on the amount due of course..
  7. The mans of his head...even if he was getting some grief of some fans (ok...most fans!) on LiviLions he was still getting as much backing. Livi appear to be on the verge now. I hope that they can make it in some form or another but Massone seems hell bent on taking everyone and everthing down with him. He still believes that its everyone else who is out to get him or the club Anyone know how the Brake Bros court case went? Also, when is the next one up in court..or Massone for his drink driving or his leaving the scene of an accident charges?
