    o/t The Fun accounts

    Just released up to May 2018.

    They lost just short of £1M up to May 18

    Selling the laddie Hendry to Celtic reduced the overall losses to approx £500k.
    In this current year, no Hendry, big pay offs and falling crowds will see them lose even more.

    Incredibly, FPS continue to fund the black hole, but their gamble is looking increasingly like a bad one. Dark clouds anyone.

    I know they have had some utter bell ends in charge at dens over the decades, but I can’t believe anyone would sign any agreement to pay £500k a year for the sh*t hole of a ground, even for them that would be craziness of the highest order.

    Have they not been living rent free or at least a peppercorn rent for years? I am wondering if this was to let them get back to financial stability then in the future pay more rent to make up for the previous and generous discounted rent. All supposition on my part of course. For all I know they may have agreed 500k a year.

    Don’t know mate, not sure if anything has ever been released about what JB charged them, all that is known is that he stepped in when the chuckle brothers continued down the path of destruction, and saved them from playing all home games on Fairmuir Park.

    I have heard they own 4 sets of strips, 4 corner flags, 2 goal nets, 36 footballs and 3 sets of training bibs, not bad for a company that makes yearly losses of nearly £500k, think only the bigoted club fae Govan does worse

    Did they not use one of the sets of training bibs to buy a player from Lochore Welfare though 😎
