    A really good read but it shows that Doncaster's and Regan's positions are untenable surely?

    Have been for a long time now. I've heard Petrie defend Doncaster to a friend of mine which is why I worry about the stance our club takes.

    Not much headline coverage from the rags on this little snippet from Warby.

    It would interesting if Hibs put in a bid for Travernier.

    Doncaster is an employee of the SPFL and Petrie as Professional Game board member, or whatever his title is, is really his employer.

    I think Petrie would have to defend Doncaster to an outsider.

    Its what Petrie thinks and says to other club chairmen that counts, not that I have a clue what he says.

    That's what I'd like to know as well. Hopefully Amit will be allowed to communicate the clubs position after the next board meeting.

    Yes, I asked from the floor if the club was happy with the way Doncaster was handling the Rangers fiasco and was shot down with a very short reply along the lines that Doncaster worked incredibly hard for the benefit of Scottish Football and that criticism of him was uncalled for.

    On the Hun plan (then) to purposely dump debt\tax

    'He (Doncaster) did not share that with the SPFL board'

    The 'Brylcreemed-P***k' is just one of a host of 'names' (Murray\Regan\Ogilvie\King etc) that I dearly hope face, at the very least, eventually face criminal-charges when the smoke-screen (that they created) clears - it's becoming more and more evident as each day passes that the folk at the GFA took their duties as seriously as the Hun took paying their bills and taxes - f**ck-all !!

    Doncaster may be incompetent, but criminal? ?

    The other career area in which Warburton worked seems to have people who like to rig things in their favour just like his new club.

    He maybe never intended his actions to be criminal but he would not be the first person in history to find that is what has happened.
    What we need more than anything in all this is the truth. We need a full independent investigation which is open and transparent for all to see.
    Plans appear now to be afoot to force a judicial review of the whole affair and I think it can't come soon enough.

    I'd jail him for his hair and annoying facial expression. Granted my views aren't exactly in line with those of the pf office though. More's the pity

    While the increased communication from the club has been welcome it has not extended to the very important areas like this. That is something that will have to change as the level of fan ownership increases. We now own about 10% of the club and that figure should rise as the popularity of HSL increases. At 20% we have the right to appoint a board member and we already have two fans reps. So far they have only delivered good news stories for the board but it is early days yet and I'm sure they will grow into the role.

    That's compatible, is it not?
    You can be mistaken and not be a liar surely?

    Fact would suggest to me something indisputable that at the very least he has misrepresented.

    Doncaster had nothing to do with our game till he got the job here so I don't think he's risked his neck (or laughably) his 'name' for the Hun because he 'supported them as a boy' !!. It can surely only be die-hard Hun's who DON'T think that money's changed hands in this con and criminal-charges could see what's went through certain people's accounts ?.

    Of course it is. I could tell you black was white and even that wouldn't make me a liar - provided I believed what I was telling you was true.

    Treadstone makes a nonsense point.
