South Lanarkshire Jag Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Looks like Thistle's next trip to EEP will be mid-week, as the Scottish Cup QF's are scheduled for when we're due to play there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Islay Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Looks like Thistle's next trip to EEP will be mid-week, as the Scottish Cup QF's are scheduled for when we're due to play there. That's assuming the plucky underdogs don't pull off a shock! Although from what I have witnessed of both Dumbarton and Hamilton it will be an epic upset. Is there not a free Saturday when the game could be played, for example when the Semi-Finals take place assuming we go out in the Quarters? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only free Saturday between now and the end of the Season is R5 day, where we will, probably, play Cowdenbeath in our re-arranged postponement from Saturday coming. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poet of the Macabre Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Time for a reality check: http://dafc.info/for...27364&t=1227364 Are we meant to raise money so that the club can keep the squad and JJ and win promotion to the SPL? So that the Board can then f**k it all up again? Will not be giving them any extra cash until the actual people in charge come out and spell out what is happening and what is needed done. Not "forummer with a source" shite that we've had so far. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Islay Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Not "forummer with a source" shite that we've had so far. One of the Pars youth coaches informed me that he has not yet been paid, which is as good a source as you will get. I agree with the sentiment though, the board needs to clarify what is exactly happening. Where did this 4k that was raised actually go? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Islay Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Yes, I know it has. A bit of clarity saying this is the case would be welcomed. If they were more honest then they would gain more support. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Islay Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Half of it went to pay the under 20s despite it being said that no money would go to the club. But did it? The youth coaches are part of the U20 set-up as well. I'm not going to argue about why the money was actually given to the club, I just want to know if it has actually been used for the purpose it was donated for. Apparently it wasn't. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingTON Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Are we meant to raise money so that the club can keep the squad and JJ and win promotion to the SPL? So that the Board can then f**k it all up again? My favourite part is the tiny tears regarding the 'worst case' of only having the Under 20 squad available for matches: other clubs have had to field complete pub-team level players in order to survive, Clyde have fallen through the ranks owing to the shite they could afford as they paid their debt. Not to mention the actual worst case scenario, which is Dunfermline folding, and an all too real prospect given the hopeless levels of debt owed all round. As much as the title race may well be interesting right now, if the shit hits the fan then performances on the park should be the least of anyone's worries. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smpar Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 I'd like the directors to tell us straight. Agreeing with Poet, this "I've been told" patter is frustrating. It's been said, but we arguably have the best squad and coaches we've had in about 10 years. We'll need to know what the exact situation is before we can start trying to help it. I'd rather give to Pars Alive etc, knowing how much we have to raise and what we need to do before anything changes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Directors "told you straight" then your creditors would be hammering down the doors and you'd be utterly fucked. Their confidence in any business is key to sustaining cashflow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dafcburty Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Apparently the £4k cheque was only handed over today. Presumably, this means the U20 players will get some more money put into their bank accounts at some point this week? Btw, for anyone who hasn't read it on .net - the U20 monthly wage budget is £10.5k! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dafcburty Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 http://shamanicmusic.bandcamp.com/ Shamanic featuring Dunfermline Athletic - listen to the song on the link above. £1 to buy the song, too. All monies raised goes to DAFC. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
