    £800k a £900k on non player staff? Absolutely and easily. Look at who’s potentially included in there. 

    Manager, assistant & coach staff

    sports scientist & medical staff

    Including Club doctor & physios

    several admin staff for tickets, shop, catering,

    dozens if not 100s of stewards (throughout season) 

    other security 

    potentially legal teams & contractors  

    how much do you think non player costs are for football clubs? 

     

     

    For info the £1.9m figure is for 43 players and 34 management and admin salaries.

     

  2. Club have just announced all the players who’s loans have ended and also noted that Jackson and Ferdinand have left.

    No mention of GMac and Muzek so they must be getting offered contracts. Not sure of anyone else who has out of contract?

    They have an on-line' Contact Us' which I tried to use to tell them that season ticket links were not working. But that did not work either (There were errors processing your submission)! The joke continues.

    Yeah I had issues with this today. Tried to ask them how I can add my sons season ticket (wont let me do it under the 'friends' section) and I get an error about a security code...unbelievable how poor this company is.

  4. Interesting reading Oran’s interview from today. Maybe he just doesn’t want to distract from Saturday but his chat about coleraine not being on his radar “at this time” doesn’t sound like an unequivocal denial to me.


    Same for me, his words indicate he’s focusing on the next week and a half and not much after that.

    I may be putting 2 and 2 together and coming up with 18 but I’m now thinking he’s going back in the summer.

    IIRC that wasn't really his fault. 

    If we're talking about the Stephen McGinn goal/4 defenders on the line game it was our fans who started to call him a wanker because he wouldn't respond with a wave while the game was in play.

    Immense for us when we were promoted, more than immense the following season when we stayed up - he should be in our HoF! :notworthy:clapping

    Kirk was superb for us in both seasons.

    Also remember one game at Tannadice near the end of the season, I have it in my head that Shuggie scored and we won 2-0 (I could be wrong) but I remember Kirk being absolutely sensational that day and almost dragging us to victory on his own.

    He may be an absolute zoomer but he was fantastic for us

     

  6. We aren't seriously suggesting playing 4 centre halfs, 2 full backs and 1 striker? Celtic are a good attacking side with pace especially if Burke and Weah play but f**k me, If I see we have picked Ferdinand, Baird, MacKenzie, Popescu, PMcGinn and Muzek then ill be going straight up the road.

     

    Remember when Gus used to be criticised for being negative despite generally playing 442 or 352? This place would have erupted if he played that many defensive players

    We have subsequently spent and wasted way more on players, managers, coaches and Technical directors than Neilson wanted as a budget. The board f**ked it up, tried to go cheap and ended up spaffing cash at anything that stood still long enough! Oran got the three biggest earners signed on in Ferdinand, Jackson and Hammill, then splashed a shed more in January.

    by comparison at Dun Utd, and Dundee their two mangers have spent way, way less, as have Hamilton, but have seen so far a much better return. We picked the wrong manager, we even let go to assist Hamilton. Cant you see how horrendous those business decisions have been?

    Dont lie.

    Dundee Utd have flung cash at it in January to try and get yout that league, guys like Palwett, Sow and Reynolds will be on more than most of our squad.

  8. Surprised so many are criticising the performance. First half we played into the wind and we still didn’t give much away.2nd half the conditions were atrocious. We done well to dig in against a well drilled team

    I’ve probably been been one of his biggest critics but today I thought Ryan Flynn put in a lot of graft and took the goal well.

    McGinn looked really immobile, definitely not 100%

    Fantastic win and 5 points from the last 3 games is great going.

    Re the bit in bold, how ironic! Because that's what the unconscious supporter and his family said what happened in regard to the club statement. 

    You get that bit, right Rickshaw? The actual supposed victim and family even say it just didnt happen. 

    Have they? I genuinely haven't seen that, do you have the link LPM?
