Anthony Fitzgerald Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 In February 2011 we owed £900k ish to various people. We made severe cutbacks last season and in January 2012 we pocketed over £600k from player sales and the League cup exit. I refuse to believe we owe any money to anyone right now. Proof? Even from your calculations you've done there(even if those figures are right) we'd still be 300k due to people. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't you read the cutbacks piece? We took a fair chunk of our summer 2011 season tickets and paid some debts (I hope) Given the low wages we paid last season and the even lower ones now Scobbie and Millar are gone, we should be back in the black. We also have the Elton cash to bankroll our pre-season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 Am I missing something? Wallace went for £300k, and Higgenbotham was speculated to have left for £150k. Don't remember anyone else leaving so I'm not sure where we're finding (at least) another £150k from? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 We didn't get to the final of the League Cup, we got to the semi-final. Anyone actually have any proper figures for the TV money we got or is it just speculation? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just a bairn Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 We didn't get to the final of the League Cup, we got to the semi-final. Anyone actually have any proper figures for the TV money we got or is it just speculation? Fixed, but the point stands, that's where the cash came from. Reaching the semi-final earns the club just short of £50,000 in prize money. I can't recall the exact figure for the Television money, but it's certainly more than £50,000. Added to that, you've got the gate money that's split between the four clubs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz FFC Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 Can't we just trust the board who said at the AGM we pocketed £600K in January through sales and the cup exit? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 (edited) In February 2011 we owed £900k ish to various people. We made severe cutbacks last season and in January 2012 we pocketed over £600k from player sales and the League cup exit. I refuse to believe we owe any money to anyone right now. The loans which went into the club in January 2011 just before HMRC were on our tail were paid back over ten years, not sure about the cash needed to get them off our back. The soft loans paid back after selling Higgy and Wallace were to cover cashflow issues, in November 2011. The rest of that transfer cash was used to keep the club in a positive cash position meaning season tickets were not sold in this financial year.

young_bairn Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 Falkirk website stating some cad called Haworth is joining us on a 2 year deal. Obviously never heard of him but he is being touted as Higgys replacement. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just out of interest what are we doing with Compton? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting rid of him apparently! Hopefully sell him. I seen him tweet Bullen a couple of days ago saying he has a couple of offers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just a bairn Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 (edited) Mark Millar joins Dundee United on a 3 year deal. A great move, all the best to him. I saw him in Dundee a few weeks back, so I had a hunch this was going to happen. Edited May 31, 2012 by Just a bairn 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
