      It's long been requested by the masses and finally here it is. P&B Gold is where old classic threads will be moved to by the mods whenever they have served their time in the main forum.

      Users can contribute to threads that make their way in here, but can't start new topics here. Of course we want users to suggest threads that merit being moved here, and we will NEVER archive any of the threads that sit in Gold.

    • 👏👏👏 - 100% agree with this... Would obviously love to see the club remain Fulltime, however it very well may be hampering us if the budget is so low... however as stated elsewhere, if the budget is so bad, don't sign 30 players, and surely that will increase quality over quantity.... surely my maths isn't that bad.  Big decisions coming up this next week or two you would think...
    • Everything and I mean everything depends on the club getting the board situation sorted out....  Over maybe the last 5 years you will see a steady decline in the gate numbers, not obviously counting the pandemic season. A lot (granted not all) of the decline in numbers seem to have been in dispute with the transparency of the board and that divide between board and terrace, therefore it is IMPERATIVE that Mr McLinden (who is obviously going to be the new chairman) gets his board absolutely spot on and ensures the fans feel welcome.  If the fans are welcomed and feel involved then they will turn up at the gate..... If the fans turn up at the gate... then the finances are there.  If we even get back to an average gate of 15/1600 this will add circa £130k back into the coffers which is a huge difference in wages.  Lets forget any other business plan.... focus on how do we get the fans back Mr Chairman... Local Businessmen involved Fans listened to and involved Palmerston Upgrade Strategy (and I am not just talking new stand) Remedial Action to stop Main Stand being condemned (which is close I believe) Toilets sorted before being condemned Terrace Kitchen sorted as the mould and damp in there now would not pass an HSE assessment for food storage. Spores are dangerous...🤔 Cleanliness of stadium in General Lick of paint and general spruce up Stop refusing to speak to Solway Sharks and embrace the potential partnership for what it can deliver Get the board wrong (of which sadly I am on that trajectory line), fans will not return and will only mean a guaranteed return to PT, more losses and (the very worst case) us going quickly into the red, with Save our South buckets being hunted out again.  I don't know where I stand with my thoughts on PT.  Is the club staying FT actually hampering us? If we are paying so bad a wage that we can't even compete with the PT wages, then we are on a hiding to nothing.  If we kept the budget where it is and continued to train in Glasgow we surely then should go from terrible fulltime payers to a decent part time payer.  My biggest wish is always for more training at Palmerston however if we went PT I don't expect this would be achievable.... Tues/Thurs Training wouldn't finish until 9ish and for those players not local, it would take them a couple of hours to get home at least be it Central Belt of NE/NW England....  Some HUGE decisions by those in power, but hopefully these next 2 weeks we will see some news and direction
