MCL Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Are you by chance an alias of MCL. M Bates. x No he's not. My username goes back to the year 2000 when I joined the Rivals boards as Mid Calder Lion which I shortened to MCL as time went on. It's the only username I use and I don't see the need to have multiple usernames, unlike those who need/want to hide when having a go at me 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCL Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 I'm not who you think I am. I love you really and my outburt was just me venting my frustration that the love will never be mutual. Just as long as you accept it then :lol: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCL Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 Now you're on the "Trust" board, did you happen to ask why the lottery jackpot is only going up by £100 per week when it normally goes up £250 ? When lottery jackpots rise to a decent level like Livi's is now they tend to sell more tickets as people think it gives them a better chance to win so where is all the extra money going ? I see the jackpot has been won now. The lucky lady receives £18,900, which I'm sure she'll be delighted with, but if the jackpot had gone up by the £250 weekly then it would and should have been £20,000. I wonder where the other £1,100 has gone ? -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCL Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 I see they have changed the Jackpot to be a maximum of £5,000 now - Official Site - supposedly to make more frequent winners but none of the other rules have changed. It just means all the money taken in after £5,000 is reached will go to the club instead of being shared with the winner. It doesn't mean more frequent winners, just less of the income going to the winner. If they wanted more frequent winners they should have changed the other rules so that when the jackpot was reached they kept drawing numbers until a winner was found. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the must win part meant that it will be won once it gets to the max no matter what. I'm sure you know better though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've changed the wording to include "must win". Nice to know they follow P&B :lol: And nice of you to acknowledge at last that I know better 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Thompson Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 We need to have a word with Div to get them all moved into the 2nd division forum (That's Div, not that annoying wee midget Dov :lol: ) Im sure that can be arranged on GTF day Someone remind me 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCL Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 All this proves it that you're digging where there's hee-haw to find. I don't think it proves anything of the kind. A couple of questions maybe you will answer. a) Did you contribute to the Fighting Fund? If yes, then: b) Are you happy that your money was used to buy £35 tickets for the "Trust" board and their friends & family to attend the Hogmanay do ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCL Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 If that were to be the case we'd have to go part time, i wonder how many seasons we'd spend in the 2nd before the board realised this. In the courier McDougal said his business plan would only work in the 1st Div, so untill we're in the 1st Div we'll be running at a loss, i'm not having a go, just stating that's what he said, so don't see how we can remain FT in the 2nd Div as we'd be losing money every season untill we're in the 1st, or Livi's business plan would have to change, which would most likely mean going part time, as i doubt we could make enough cuts staying FT and break even. However this raises another problem, Ged said we can't go part time with the set up we have, meaning being in the Vale stadium. I just hope we get promotion next season so we don't have to find out how long we can remain in the 2nd Div as a FT team. Good point on LL, why didn't you post it here too ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIVIFOREVER Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 Good point on LL, why didn't you post it here too ? Usually you're asking why no one brings anything up on the LL, can't win with you. hardly likely to get sensible debate on here though with so many Livi haters, so don't see the point discussing it here, i was looking for a response from Livi fans as i thought it worthwhile reminding them what McDougal had said. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I quoted you, because you actually brought up a good point It's better to discuss in the wider community here because, although there are Livi haters, there are also some sensible posters who can add to the debate.

All you get on LL is parochial nonsense. Well i've just learnt we're a year behind in the rent, so that was informative, we took a hefty hit with losing 300 ST sales to Massone, but i thought with us not paying any rent last season it at least made up for it, apparantly that's not so though, as the rent is in arrears, so as well as the debt we've racked up from this season being in the 3rd Div with a team of high wage earners on 1st Div wages, we've also 40K to make up from the loss of ST sales as the rent wasn't free last season. That should be a concern with us remaining FT in the 2nd Div, but instead it's a raw subject some feel the need to ignore. The board had a raw deal getting punted into the 3rd Div, but the fact remains, even with their cutbacks and trimming the wage bill it still isn't possible to break even, and that's going on McDougals words, so my point was, if we do fail to gain promotion next season and as was said in the LL thread, Ged at the fans meeting mentioned this: if it turns out we're a mid-table second division side then that's how it will be. We can't go back to how things were. How can we remain FT, i agree with what he's saying, but surely if we can't go back to how things were we'd have to go part time, it doesn't make sense to me otherwise. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
