Could have been a cashflow reason? So given this season's budget was higher than last season, does that mean the club massively overspent this season too? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes the odd mistake but then at this level you aren't going to get a faultless keeper. His experience will help and his organisational skills at the back would be very handy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The balance sheet will show at the next AGM whether we did or didn't. I very much doubt it'll be 1.2 million in the red like deans and his clowns managed to rack up that's for sure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scottish football is full of these play things I couldn’t give two shites if it’s good bad or indifferent. We’ve been kicking off each season for a decade or so, with a huge minus debt, with various BODs begging for cash, back the manager pish, get your early season ticket etc etc to be treated with an appalling array of so called football players that have nothing been short of embarrassing. We’ve got a core support of 4K which almost embarrasses three or so SPL clubs, and the majority of the championship. Maybe I’m just envious of a small football club that have people willing to plough in cash. Lastly if it’s true we’re signing McDonald four STs will not be getting renewed. Another poor dinosaur easy signing for yours truly. -3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tea and Busquets Posted May 18, 2023 Share Posted May 18, 2023 It says in the article there is a premiership team and many championship teams wanting MacDonald. I doubt he’ll come to us. Would be easily the best keeper in the league. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is about clubs who just don’t contribute anything financially to Scottish football as a whole. Look at Edinburgh. 11 fans at Dumfries, 13 fans at Falkirk but able to compete because someone is bankrolling it. Queens Park, Kelty, Cove, Edinburgh - Darvel trying to buy their way up. It just doesn’t sit right to me 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he’s alluding to the 1.2million loss we racked up in that year, it obviously made things a bit tight financially! Pretty certain that won’t be the case when this years accounts are published under the new fan ownership structure and BOD. I think we at least start next season on a much more stable footing financially if nothing else. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan-FFC Posted May 18, 2023 Share Posted May 18, 2023 McDonald would be a solid league 1 keeper. Certainly an upgrade on any keeper we’ve had whilst down here. can’t see us getting him anyway. Probably end up at another championship team. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ranaldo Bairn Posted May 18, 2023 Share Posted May 18, 2023 Refusing to renew 4 STs if we sign a certain player. Ooh, sounds serious! Who is it? Goodwillie? Adam Johnson? Eh no, Jamie MacDonald. FFS. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ecosse83 Posted May 18, 2023 Share Posted May 18, 2023 After watching PJ Morrison and Brian Kinnear play between the sticks this season I’m absolutely staggered folk are dead against signing MacDonald. He would be a massive upgrade on both! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
