Can't remember that many signings under FPS/Hartley to push the bill up so where did the 800k loss come from? Dundee's losses under Brannan were always about 300k. Bit of a nonsense that FPS didn't have to pay any wages or bills having gained control, no? Or were you wanting DFCSS to remain in charge?
The two Dundee FC directors believed the fans would back DFCSS and reject FPS so one argument gone. For the record I was part of the revolt against the DFC / DFCSS board at that time as were all current incumbents (bar maybe one) so why you need to keep blaming DFCSS for that term is beyond me, it was the current DFCSS people that drove the change.

Pretty sure FPS hired Hartley and bagged the useless Brown; stretching it a bit to blame two guys that were long gone for that one.
