lennythistle Posted July 14, 2012 Report Share Posted July 14, 2012 Thanks for your response and clarification Jim. Particularily your last paragraph, and also your acknowledgement that "putting on a simple commercial head the disadvantages of Newco outweigh the advantages". Ditto on this. Any chance you could give DB a call just now and convey your words of these posts and get him to act as you suggest he should, and put all this speculation, distrust and uncertainity to bed once and for all? Hope your balls have recovered, it wasn't personal. Here, here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Leitch Loyal Posted July 14, 2012 Report Share Posted July 14, 2012 I've read that the Falkirk Trust are contacting their chairman for clarification of how he voted. Can the Jags Trust not do the same? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shuggie Posted July 14, 2012 Report Share Posted July 14, 2012 Ah the Jags Trust. Been meaning to suggest that here is a moment of opportunity for them in the offing should our Board have voted for the Gers. (please please no!) If they show some spark they could give notice to Scotland that it wasn't PTFC fans who did this but rather yet another misguided Board. They'll understand and perhaps be more inclined to come to Firhill if only to join in on our abuse?? Either way we need to make sure PTFC fans and team don't get kicked around. and yes I've just checked the OS again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenix1876 Posted July 14, 2012 Report Share Posted July 14, 2012 from the annan athletic website http://www.annanathleticfc.com/news.asp We were delighted to hear the unanimous response from all ten 1st Division clubs who stated that they are only interested in a 42 club resolution (for any CEO’s or others who are unsure what that means, bluntly it is stick SPL2 where the sun don’t shine and do not even attempt to pull a 16 team stunt move, another scenario that wouldn’t astonish us is for Rangers to be invited back into the SPL – to think we were threatened with Armageddon! We do however have faith that the SPL chairmen, the guys that matter, will invite Dundee or Dunfermline into the SPL and through all our combined efforts we will see a 42 team resolution to restructuring and the many other changes we all wish to see happening.

ClydebankJag Posted July 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2012 The Record has named us as one of the 5. Lets hope they are wrong. And they were! Now let's demand an apology from the Daily Record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagfox Posted July 14, 2012 Report Share Posted July 14, 2012 If the record stated grass was definitely green I would have a wee check out the kitchen at my back garden........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pie Of The Month Posted July 14, 2012 Report Share Posted July 14, 2012 I'm relieved that the club have clarified the matter (although it's a shame it was left to Maxwell rather than the board statement not saying it in the first place) but I'm annoyed at the Record. Left unchecked the fallout from this could've cost the club money from both home and away fans staying away and an apology is the least we should expect.

lennythistle Posted July 14, 2012 Report Share Posted July 14, 2012 So who did vote YES? Come out, come out, where ever you are ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lady-isobel-barnett Posted July 14, 2012 Report Share Posted July 14, 2012 (edited) So who did vote YES? Come out, come out, where ever you are ! I still fancy one of the clubs that intimated they would vote yes and declared they didn't on their website. Also instinct tells me never to trust Dundee FC. Just a wee thingy about Falkirk FC. Assuming Pressley is their mouthpiece or at least sings from the same hymn sheet then their big gripe is for league reconstruction. That in itself would be admirable but not if they voted yes to sevco to try and achieve that aim. I hope I'm doing them an injustice.
