    I agree with the overall point about the financial gulf that we have to overcome although the media don't like to highlight this. However I'm a bit puzzled by some of the detaield figures. I've heard quoted that we have the second smallest playing budget in the league and I've never been sure about this. The statistics show us to be on a par with Accies although they have a far smaller turnover than us. Likewise we're significantly below St Johnstone and Partick although we gave slightly higher turnovers than them as well. Theres lies, damned lies ......
