    I would not say that they are completely out of the woods yet.
    We can only hope it comes to bite them.

    If they were pushed into 4th and by some unlikely miracle, Motherwell win the Scottish Cup, it would firmly put a wedge into any cracks there may be.

    An unlikely miracle indeed. Same thing could happen to us and that would be catastrophic to our finances, would it not?

    We don't know what state they are in. Nobody knows. The Huns I work with that genuinely take an interest in how the club is run don't even know.

    The chance to have them dead and buried has been and gone I'm afraid.

    Not quite the same level I would suggest.
    Our finances I doubt are dependent on Europe, although no doubt there would be a reduction in available budget.
    for SevCo, it would be catastrophic

    Probably, but there is plenty of information that if you read between the lines, they are not in a good financial place.
    * Their accounts
    * Their soft loans
    * The media hype trying to flog Barrie MacKay for £6M and then selling for £500k.
    * The media hype trying and failing to flog Morelos
    * Losing Bates because they could not afford his wages
    * The Carlos Pena debacle
    * Loan signings to cover lack of funds
    * Talk about making a "best appointment" manager and then it appears opting for someone with no managerial experience.

    They are clambering any way possible to get revenue to stave off a more serious financial implications

    Lets face it, it's been hilarious.

    Saviour after saviour has come and been proved to be yet another false prophet.

    They simply refuse to understand that it was overspending in the first place that caused all the problems with the now extinct rangers.

    Even in the third division Sevco had to be seen to be spending like Rangers.

    Any form of regret and contrition would have seen them able to climb through the divisions while putting the new club on a firm finacial footing.

    They just simply refuse to do it.

    Now they behave like a drunk, who instead of going home, staggers his way to the casino.

    Every managerial appointment has the feel of an all or nothing gamble.

    Of course it could work, well it could work half the time if they went odds or evens or red or black.

    But they won't even do that.

    Gerrard?

    Well their number MIGHT come up, of course it might.

    It's not going to though, is it?


    All very entertaining.

    New stadium. AberDNA set up to make up for the budget shortfall... We don't know our own financial position right now.

    Hmmm

    Anyway, it's still all speculation.

    4yrs ago they were going into administration, 3yrs ago they were going into administration...

    I'd love that to happen again but let's try and do them on the park in the meantime.

    No way will the glasgow football association let Motherwell win the Scottish cup, no way. Hopefully they do but if the tattie munchers are losin, the ref will be givin pens aboot 3 yards ootside the penalty box....
