Clubs going bust

Can see this happening very soon. From what I hear there's no government support forthcoming other than furloughs.

With this sort of money flying about is it any wonder?

Just to be clear I'm not meaning clubs like us, it's going to be clubs with no access to an owners finances.

If only they had Peter and Jimmy pulling the lever's,the halcyon days of Caniggia still being celebrated by The Courier newspaper regardless of the £23,000,000 debt that was run up to bring players like him in.

Its truly staggering that our local paper looks back on that period with such fondness,hundred's of Funsters still think they were their glory years and still throw rose petals at the feet of the Marrs,FACT.

They have no shame GB. No shame at all.
Still see threads go up occasionally glorifying it. And to think they finished 6th was it (?) won the square root of FA and nearly saw their club swallowed by their neighbours.

You've got to remember it's the fun though - they don't have a lot to reminisce and get excited about. Cannigia scored against us, which makes him a pretty big deal in wee team terms, but he was also part of the squad that didn't get relegated. That constitutes success for them. They're not like supporters of other teams - they have completely different metrics for success due to the fact that none of them know what it's like to actually win something, while a lot of them have had to watch their neighbours win every major trophy in Scotland, and play in loads of finals and European competitions.

Look at how we are with Stephen Thompson - the man fu**ed our club over in a pretty big way and we despise him for it. The Marrs did way more damage to the wee club but the support still speak fondly of what the brothers "achieved".

Crumbs of comfort DSC.
