I'm more worried about where the money is coming from. I hope they know what they're doing and it would be welcome if they could explain it to members and supporters. If we had no income through the gates until, say, April, would income cover committed costs? If not, by how much, and how much is in reserve right now?

Most clubs what they take through the gates is extra. Most will be generated from sponsorship. You have a lot of players on loan and quite probably arent paying a wage for and even if you are it will be a fraction of the likes of pat scullion.

This year, of all years, more regular updates would be very helpful. I have no reason to doubt the committee at all and I don't envy them for everything they're doing this year - I couldn't do it. But no matter how much faith I have in a group of people I'm a big fan of transparency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not looking for a ton of detail, or any special treatment, just a general update on the finances. If you are a ‘member of Linlithgow Rose’ eg Season Ticket holder or by some other means, I am sure if you did email, they should be able to provide you with answer you are looking at! I know for my club, they had global costs/finances, which were handed out to members at our AGM, back in August. Our treasurer also said if any person wanted more in-depth figures, he would provide this on a 1-2-1 basis, as long as the member respected the confidential nature of this. I agree that transparency is huge and vital for any club at our level. I hope you get the assurances you are looking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Auld Heid Posted November 29, 2020 Author Share Posted November 29, 2020 Never seen enough of Bembo at Kelty hope he does well with you guys The most pleasing part is he looked a little short of match fitness / sharpness.So if that's the case we could have signed a real gem. -1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HibeeJibee Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 Scorelines still not very convincing but that's 3 victories in a row for Rose who seem to be establishing winning form. Dunbar, Glasgow Uni and Whitehill up next before festive double-header with Broxburn. Speaking of Glasgow Uni... has it been confirmed yet whether that tie is going Friday or Sunday?
