If your work asked you to go to a conference in Glasgow would they pay your travelling expenses and meals etc? If they didn't would you go? No doubt SD seemed a worthwhile thing at the time to the people running the club. We now have a board that seemingly don't care about the fans in any way - what's better?

    I'm not going into what I know to have been given to the club but it was a good bit more than 'a few quid'.
    The question will always be, where did DFCSS get their money from, when they only had a few hundred actual members who paid a fiver a year. The answer is they took DFCTV revenues from the club. People who subscribed to this service, did they know DFCSS were taking their money? FPS took the service back immediately but for 3 years, DFCSS raked it in and are still sitting on that money. Their latest minutes mention a bank account change and concerns over charges, but they don't divulge their hoard. Any reason why not? And Dave Forbes is still involved, a guy who left FPS with a £800k bill.

    Wrong again.

    DFCSS invested supporters' money to set up a service for the supporters. If anything the club took the service, and therefore the money, from the society. They did so without warning or explanation which was sneaky and immoral.

    The size of their 'hoard' is there for all members to see.

    Explain about the £800,000 bill left FPS by Dave Forbes. First I've heard about that one.
