1320Lichtie Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 Dods deserves to see the season out, he got them promoted. With no budget there was no chance Brechin would even finish 9th. It’s a massive step up.130K from finishing 10th plus United and St Mirren have taken over 6000 fans In 4 games, Brechin will have a budget advantage over the division next season and If they’re In the top position next year they’ll no how to prepare better for this league. I think.... it’s 160k they get. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CITY1974 Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 I think.... it’s 160k they get. It's paid in instalment s over course of the season I think they ve had most of it 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1320Lichtie Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 It's paid in instalment s over course of the season I think they ve had most of it How can it be paid in instalments? Take it everyone has had about the same as yourselves then? Your final payment will just be less than everyone else’s? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CITY1974 Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 I asked treasurer about it a few weeks back when figures were published . I'm guessing the final payments will all differ from top to bottom. It's in instalment s to keep clubs from being naive I think .Imagine giving ourselves 100 k or Stenny 160k and we blew it all on 1 player that's not very clever .Keeps everything sensible 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blogging Brechin City Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 We may be naive too because we've set up a site at http://www.brechincityblog.com to provide some additional news and views not just for Brechiners but for the many others who admire the club and love Glebe Park. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naive would have been to blow the extra income in trying to stay up and we have done the exact opposite. I suggest a retraction and apology would be in order here if your ego permits. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good post , although I still wonder why Dods wasn't given targets to reach despite being given a free leash this season. That might have encouraged a more attacking style of football. But hindsight is a marvelous thing . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I m meaning say we got a payment off 160k and went and signed 1 better class of player but then 10 games in find out we can t afford to keep paying his wages. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you seriously suggesting you've spent £160K on 10 weeks wages for 1 player? I'm assuming it's the lad from Dundee you're talking about here, if you think you've been paying him anywhere near £16K a week please send me whatever drugs you're smoking in Brechin. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No no no we were discussing how the league placement payment works and WHY it's distributed over the season and not in one lump sum .My idea was it's too stop clubs being crazy with a huge lump sum I used that figure as an example. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Up until the Dunfermline game 2 weeks ago even he didn't know. Perhaps the management team have been round the players since then though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
