The New Raith Rovers Thread
Robbo replied to Hank Scorpio's topic in Scottish Championship General Chatter
As far as I am aware cup money was not used to pay off soft loans. Sorry but we had guys dipping into their pockets last season which I`m sure will go down as soft loans so its still going on and has been for years.We got rid of I certain manager that way. The only soft loan pay back if you like is to two directors who waived money owed to them eg soft loans for shares in the club. -

Our cup run was a bonus and basically tidied us over.The 200k we earned from our Scottish Cup run wiped out a huge part of our operating debt allegedly.If we had not had the SC run our debt would have risen. -

Realistic budgeting would be a better option than directors having to dig deep. -

Now that I think of it,remember reading that as well Hence why I said this is courtesy of the FFP so it might well be wrong but its all we have to go on Correct Yoss.Actually never noticed he wasn`t on the list. With you on that.Did at least two of these players not spend this season out on loan? -

Agree with that Thinking that as well.With his full time job based in Kilmarnock I suspect he`ll be looking for a club nearer there Its like a lot of things concerning the club TBH Paco,this is courtesy of the FFP so it might well be wrong but its all we have to go on Ditto and also surprised.He signed in 2008 and surmise he was given a 2 year deal,so he must have been given an extended 2 year deal last season Ditto and again surprised Dont see either as being controversial.Wont be too upset to see both depart.Wilson for me has not been near the player he was for sometime now and Simmons,well,on his day when he feels like it,a decent player but these days are few and far between -

Nice one Yoss. I was behind the goals that day and Leveins punch would not have looked out of place in the ring My recollection is,fists weren`t flying.Only the one punch thrown by Levein and Hoggs lights were out.Hoggs part in the rammy was a bit of verbal and pushing -

Dougie is kinda fortunate in a strange kinda way.I required an emergency op when I suffered a similar injury eg a comminuted displaced fracture of the Talus playing football,spent 4 months in plaster, non weight bearing and a further year and half on crutches, non weight bearing.Still fucked to this day -

Why should he,because he has an opinion? The guy has a point,on what I`ve seen of O Carroll we`d be as well with Williams but hopefully neither -

Unless a Sugar daddy comes in you better be prepared to wait till around about 2021 for the debt to be paid off -

Seeing as you know so much about the debt and workings at SP,care to give us an update from the AGM last night seeing as it was only for the elite shareholders? -

Robbo replied to Hank Scorpio's topic in Scottish Championship General Chatter
From mine also You could argue that the cup money pays the interest and starts to repay the loan for 4 years. Having not seen the accounts for a number of years I would put Raiths debt at around 1.1mill/1.2 mill but thats just my guesstimate.Hopefully someone who is a shareholder in RRFC will be able to verify after the forthcoming AGM.I would but I only hold shares in RRFC holding company for whom there is no AGM for some unknown reason -

That does suprrise me if he isn`t on his radar and even more so thats hes unaware of his possibly availability.Deuchar for me is exactly the type of player we could do with Did he give names? I It worries me also.Our debt on the stadium is over 600k so its not surprising Sim turned down 400k -

Robbo replied to Hank Scorpio's topic in Scottish Championship General Chatter
Thanks for the update.Did McGlynn say why he had ruled out Deuchar,was it finance? With respect,giving one days notice doesn`t help.Sometimes think this is deliberate ploy so few fans turn up and ask some searching questions -

Yoss,I was just heading out the door at 12-30 yesterday when I got a call from SP so didn`t have time to post. Indeed you were correct as you point out in the email you received from the SFA Well done Apparently John McGlynn walks about with a smile on his face as normal but the smile was bigger when told the news -

That there no doubt It could also be read the other way that the clubs finances are bad and to keep Gethussi would add further pressure With respect Simm said that years ago and is that the Simm that nobodys heard from or has seen in a few years? Sorry for the negativity but until theres an AGM nobody outwith the board room can verify our financesl
