Zombie Dunfermline

[RUL]

Rumour is they'll enter admin tomorrow, apparently he's done some kind of deal where the bank have written off the debt?

[tup]

Good news if true, but losing 10 points (or is it more now?) puts them in grave danger of relegation.

Unless they swoop for a manager with a keen ability to save teams in peril. Like a rotund, orange superhero.

 

 

 

[Huntlysheep]

Will be in admin imorn if they da hae a buyer etc by 5pm imorn's night.

[jassb]

Thought the deadline was 5pm tonight?

[RUL]

HMRC extended the deadline...not sure why.

[MichtyMeMin]

It seems Dunfermline are about to, in one of my all time favourite phrases, 'go to the wall'.

 

Leaving a huge debt behind them of course.

 

Now, my question is, given the zombie huns were given huge rule bending advantages to come back from their brief termination, will the same privileges be extended to these Fife minker no-marks?

 

I won't be holding my breath for the media campaign anyway.

 

No, Tup, you can be rest assured that there'll be no reprieve for Dunfermline. Fully expect Doncaster and Regan to bury their huge heids in the sand over this one, after all , the SFA/SPL don't "bend" rules for anyone but the "gruesome twosome".

[Crossbow]

Have applied to go into administration - apparently that or liquidation. I blame sevco.

And no doubt sevco will put it down to them not being allowed to play in the SPL.

[K-9]

Would any reds actually notice if Dunfermline ceased to exist?

[Karl Fletcher]

I actually feel for Dunfermline.

 

Ok, they've overspent but along with Livingston, Falkirk, Dundee etc they were forced to build these daft sized stadiums that the powers that be forced them to build for one reason and one reason only: to fill it with bastarding huns and tims whenever they visit.

 

Hope they survive tbh.

I really don't. I remember them spending way over the odds to sign players we couldn't afford. No sympathy for their madnees

[Ke1t]

Admittedly a couple of years since I last saw Leishman, but Christ, I would never have recognised the guy.

 

Classic Leishman

Aye, he'a a bit village idiot, but his heart is in the right place.

If you have listened to any of his interviews about the Dunfermline situation, he sounds genuinely upset

[Karl Fletcher]

Away to go the wall and only 2,800 turn up last night to a local derby against Falkirk.

 

Total disgrace from their fans imo.

 

That is my one fear if Aberdeen ever entered administration, would our fans rally and pack out Pittodrie?

 

I don't think they would tbh.

[Henry]

That is fucking pish poor!

 

Is that the total attendance? How many Falkirk fans?

[vanderark14]

the fans once again lose out due to mismanagement from the board

[Dynamo]

It's funny seeing what the huns are saying regarding this. They have completely failed to differentiate between administration and liquidation despite going through both less than a year ago. Silly silly huns.

[tup]

I'm certain the huns will be looking to take advantage of any forced demotion of this club.

 

I'm almost equally certain that they will be involved somehow in running them into the ground, to foment my point above.

[Karl Fletcher]

Correct.

 

Dunfermline are going bust 'cause the BARES wer' made tae play in Division 3 so they wer'.

 

Baffling logic from the huns as always.

[fatshaft]

Dunfermline Athletic have announced that 8 first-team players and 3 youth-team players have been made redundant in a bid to save the club from liquidation. Captain Jordan McMillan (pictured) is one of the first team players to be axed.

Joe Cradle was a very good wingers, & worth a look.

Seem to remember that the Dons were reported sniffing about him in the past.

He could be the rock in midfield we're looking for.

[tommo1903]

Paul Gallacher isn't that good.

 

Only good game I remember him having was the Friday night game last season when we put 4 past him, could have been 7 or 8 that night.

He's no better than Langfield.

[ollie1903]

 

 

He's no better than Langfield.

Agreed. Having played these last few years for Dunfermline is testimony to that

I'm not sure Dunfermline have any players that would interest us.

Jordan McMillan is a decent player, but right back is not a priority as Shaughnessy & Jack cover that well.

Cardle also gets a mention - I'd hope Derek McInnes is looking at better players than that.

The two of them would get a game at a few SPL clubs though.

 

Slightly off at a tangent, but noticed Murray Davidson of St Johnstone has been linked...he'd be a decent signing as replacement for one of the departing centre mids.

Think he'll end up at the Bastard Garden though, or someone in League One such as MK Dons or whoever.

[Karl Fletcher]

Davidson has said he doesn't want to go to Sevco.

 

Apparently.
