FuzzyBear Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 How does a volunteer have the facility to give away £1M. I also remember Les saying he would vote against Rangers getting put into the Championship then voted for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I gathered, we can't afford to pay full-time staff to handle these kind of things and there are volunteers throughout the club handling many matters. There were many payments made under the banner of "Dougie Imrie" (insert joke about him being a wage thief) which would show up on RBS's system, making it look less conspicuous. Ronnie also said he thinks an employee at RBS has seen that there was £1m in the account and wanted a piece of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
accies1874 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Also, there will be a new pitch in the summer. They're looking at a "state-of-the-art" 3G (yay) pitch used by, I believe, the SFA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YER SISTERS YER MAW Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 FFS! Volunteers given access to bank account passwords? Absolutely astonishing! Do the programme sellers get access to them as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need 11/12 Premiership clubs & 75% of clubs from the Championship, League 1 & 2 to agree to these sanctions. Rangers & Celtic both won't agree so that's it voted down already.

Obviously the bigot brothers won’t agree, but if the SFA take action then they would be outvoted by the rest of the membership. What could they do about it?

They could therefore maybe be sanctioned if this was voted up by SFA members. However they could only be fined in Scottish Cup matches. Premiership & League Cup they can remain untouched.

I'm not sure how SFA membership votes work so it might be as straight forward as I put it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CambieBud Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 If a vote was forced, would Sevco and Celtic really publicly vote against this? They would be shown for the bigots we all know they are.Sorry for jumping on your thread, I am delighted your club is not in financial trouble.

They would be mad to vote for fines/points deductions. They will both probably come up with a clever statement and try to bury it as far down as they can.

Bad press is temporary but constant fines and point deductions aren't. That is how they will see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
accies1874 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Some good questions tonight. I don't think any fell into the "throw-in" category, and it was good to see a blend of positive and negative fans. Although the website is still utter shit.

Im_Rodger Posted February 20, 2018 Author Share Posted February 20, 2018 Anyway time for a cider. Unlucky RoP (Rest of Premiership) Our great club is not dying anytime soon. Dundee 2-0 Accies That isn't a scoreline. That's how many administrations Dundee have had compared to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NaeVay Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Good forum, a lot of questions answered re: the inner workings of the club. The volunteer bit was alarming but Ronnie explained that most of our staff are volunteers and this particular person has been doing that role for 15 years. Obv we have a lot of problems on the pitch which cannot really be discussed without Canning there. Great summary Rodge. Main thing for me is that we are nowhere near administration, as STV had suggested. Communication good and pretty open tonight. If the club could continue to actively engage with fans in that manner through statements, social media etc then relations would be a lot less strained.
