I wonder what our Footymad financial expert makes of this ?
ICT in severe financial difficulties because of spending money they quite simply didn’t have. Be careful what you wish for ;)

Despite what you may think , Queens are now run the way a football club should be. We wouldn’t be a Championship side if it wasn’t for the vision of the BOD to completely regenerate the old Tesco site among other things. We’re lucky to have such facilities and we’re also been lucky to have major debts written of by former Chairmen and Directors.
Had to laugh at some clown on the unofficial Queens page last week having a go at a former Chairman who has probably done more for this football club than anyone else in its history.
Some ‘fans’ have short memories.

The problem with Inverness began when 3 clubs were amalgamated; Inverness Thistle, Inv. Caledonian and Inv. Clachnacudden. Consequently the public never really got behind the club and despite having a population of almost 70 thousand they really struggle to attract decent crowds.
That being said, - living beyond your means in an attempt to attract a larger audience is no guarantee of success, - yet the same old - same old story is rolled out by Francis. The proof stares us in the face, - yet still some people would argue that it would be different in Dumfries.
The answer is a resounding no, - we tried it once and were almost liquidated. The soution lies in fans contributing to a ring fenced fund for players, - which has been mentioned a few times on this board but I don't see Francis or anyone else clamouring to back that idea.
Inverness Clachnacudden were not part of the amalgamation.
Instdentally, Queens are also an amalgamated club struggling to attract fans!

Great stuff then Francis. We're agreed on a way forward.
The posts by the two Marks - Jardi and Francis Begbie may not be everbody's cup of tea but it certainly helps to keep this site going even after 10 months an Administrator has still not been appointed.
