Fawlty Towers Posted August 12, 2016 Report Share Posted August 12, 2016 From the BBC gossip page: Football finance expert Bryan Jackson admits he is "shocked" to hear that in a confidential survey of five top-flight clubs, one director said the club was on the "verge of administration". (Daily Record) It seems bizarre to me that a club or some clubs still operate their finances in a way that could get them in such a position.

Dick Dastardly Posted August 12, 2016 Report Share Posted August 12, 2016 Killie are the obvious candidates, but could also be Motherwell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BowenBoys Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 Most likely Killie. Possibly Dundee. Sevco would never admit to it, not even to themselves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotty Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 As both Dundee and Kilmarnock are selling players, could be they are trying to avoid it but I'd rather speculate about clubs who are spending big. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lady-isobel-barnett Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 Bryan Jackson looks too similar to Bill Paterson to be taken seriously. But just to play along with this third hand info I'd imagine Kilmarnock are the likeliest to be in future need of Mr Jackson's services. Killie always appear to be basket cases. I wouldn't have thought the likes of Dundee are in serious bother. Their attendances have been healthy, no sign of a fire sale as such and besides I'd have thought they'd have difficulty getting credit to run up debt in the first place. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scotty Posted August 14, 2016 Report Share Posted August 14, 2016 Why only 5 clubs surveyed ? The article (can't be bothered downloading and reading the report!) states that it is a cross-section of clubs. Which could mean that there are more clubs heading for trouble.

Garscube Road End Posted August 14, 2016 Report Share Posted August 14, 2016 It could, but alternatively the article is in the Daily Record and is almost definitely a lie. If it's Keith Jackson it will be a better fairytale than a Hanson Christen Anderson one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
