I think we own the North and South Stand completely South Stand is owned by Sandy Alexander which we rent from him For the Main Stand we own the seats and the lower bottom corridors and offices (when you go through the double doors at reception) Council are taking a cut of the Main Stand bar and hospitality every game, it probably looked like they were giving us a helping hand in the transition from Brockville, but they've played a blinder in pumping us raw for the past 15 years Edited May 2, 2019 by superandy_07 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the stadium company (council) still own/manage the 4 private boxes, The Brockville Lounge & The Westfield Cafe. Sooner we get these back the better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falkirk fans have the board they deserve. "You've took" deserves relegation, frankly. The Dumbarton poet is actually quite good. The Barnsley guy as well. All other football poets can, to steal a poetical phrase, get in the sea. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Club full of mingers. Hope they go to the wall. I completely agree, you are a fud! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure discussion were taking place early on in the season about what the councils exact price would be, but after everything including us being on the brink of relegation — I would assume that has now been punted into the long grass Edited May 2, 2019 by superandy_07 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South stand is listed in that co’s accounts at over £3m. If you had real grass you could have let a white elephant graze on it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite a feat really. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South Stand is owned by a private individual. eta: private individual being SA who actually owns through Earls Gate Property - in case anyone wants to get pedantic. further, the council only own the inside of the main stand and non of the north stand iirc.

JustLuvinThepian Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 I hear all the calls for the current board of management to be replaced. I'm sure there are some people out there who know who the replacements are. It's all fair and we'll removing an underperforming board, but you cannot do that without leaving an abyss at the top. We need a footballing head in there. Someone qualified to judge the merits of any managerial appointments. A director of football if you will. Other than that, what qualifications, and experience, should a potential board member possess? Any names in the frame? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
