    I know that but they still have staff to pay and other running costs,we shifted over 5000 season tickets,have PPV money coming in and have prize money of between 1 and 1.5 million still to come.
    My main point is,were the club in such a desperate state that only more money from the DUSF could save it?.The answer i believe is no as its a drop in the ocean.
    There is no doubt though that many fans will be worried,the press have had a field day and the Funsters think we are joining them in the ADMIN club.

    Wishful thinking from across the road. The money from DUSF is to help with the running costs. I have no doubt that even without this we wld survive, all be it on a shoe string. Any team in the funs position wld have bank the cash, gained a wee bit off interest and looked to the long term. They are not going to win the league and just maybe might make it through the playoffs. But and it is a big BUT if they don’t and crowds aren’t allowed in until near end of year! Then they cld well be teetering on the bring of Admin 3.

    Yes your right mate we have been doon this path more than once in the past.Its still celebrated to this day by D C Thomson and the Whitehall in documentary and stage play format.
    With the likes of Eric and others coming on here they are currently going through the smugness phase,i remember similar behaviour in the past with the Scott Robertson signing.
