to play devil's advocate

a zeroed debt and a youth development centre would be fantastic platform for the future. any profit made thereafter could be invested straight back into the team (or stadium expansion), with the facility used to generate a stream of revenue generating youngsters (albeit we'll no get many scotty's to the pound).

it means yet more waiting of course, but it might not be a completely bollocks plan.

Just kidding but unsurprisingly egb I do agree with your post.

Certain things may not feel very good at this moment but overall, and compared to almost all other clubs, I'd say we are in a fair position.

I'd say we are in 6th position where it counts though in the debt league table we'd be higher .
I just see this as going back instead of forward

It will see us struggle to stay top six though and wreck all of the good work since we got rid of Boaby..

I honestly believe we could potentially find ourselves in a relegation dog fight. Proof? In three games last month we couldn't get a goal let alone a result against the SPL side just relegated..

Agree with you there. Looking forward to having the youth academy and no debt.

There is no doubt we need a striker. And a goalkeeper.

Lets hope we're not facing bottom 6 or worse , no debt won't help if our team is bottom of the league in February

Correct just as they reach zero debt crowds will reduce to 7k again and the debt will immediately start to build up again. Huge risk to take.

Dont see that happening, we should still have Deano, Ivan, Jones, murphy (maybe), Whittaker (maybe), Boozy, Fletch, Benji, Zemmama, Hogg which are too good a quality of players to be relegated.

Teams like gretna would kill to have some of those players. I really dont know why we havent won in eight but I dont think it will continue into next season.

With a Proper Goalie and a Striker who knows what could happen.

Right on Darren.

Every team has a slump in form, jeez you'd think we're already relegated going by some on here.

People talking about bottom 6 etc are basically saying that 1 or 2 players were the sole reason for our good results this season, and them moving will mean we are now goosed?

Pish.

So losing our best players when we have currently struggled to stay 6th will propel us up to 4th will it
