    Love it!

    What makes it even funnier is that lot are gullible as and don’t see what we can all see. £21.5 million on a single tiered rust bucket that still isn’t finished and will cost millions to finish.... but she’s says it’s got the best facilities and most modern in Scottish Football (try telling the media that when it’s pissing down) so they beLIEve it.

    They will beLIEve anything.

    Alarm bells should be tuning that they have a £400,000 deficit in the budget and that’s after millions of donations from benefactors. £8 million plus on wage bill

    Long may it continue imho and I cannot wait for fan ownership!

    If I was at the AGM and or an investor in any business with these numbers the first question I'd be asking is can the directors give me a breakdown of where the millions went across the various parts of the business and in relation to the stand and pitch I'd want to know how they decided they were getting best value and paying the right price.

    You would think but I bet no one asked!

    The majority have been brought up with this financial filing and they are at it again. This is FACT (they don’t do this) and mentioning the £400,000 deficit prices this.

    Berra, ratboy, whelan snd I’m sure many others will be in upwards of £5k a week (I’m not itk on this). £8 million wage bill would possibly back this up.

    They only know one way and they will continue but there will come a time when the donations will stop!

    It's a great idea, they could get big Trudi to come back to help Lockey, naturally he'd charge them for his appearance again but since money's still no object.... .

    He could pull a couple of pints for the manager afterwards as well.

    MacPhee and Levein are sharing the director of football role. One works from home and the other doesn't come in until the afternoon when training's over?!

    Budge is clearly out of her depth here if she expects anyone to see that as anything but a crackpot way to run a football club.

    As for the 'new' stand...still at least £1.5 million away from completion so the entire second floor apparetnly lies unused for the foreseeable future. This is a structure that was originally supposed to cost £12 million (which even at that price seemed steep for a single tier stand). What has the price risen to since then? Almost double that??

    As discussed before, you have to ask what Budge's reputation as a 'businesswoman' is based on.

    Levein doesn't work in the mornings.

    MacPhee works from home.

    They can't afford to finish their wonderful main stand.

    Sums its up perfectly. I thought the fun had ended after the Romanov days but the Budge and Levein combination is the gift that keeps giving 👍

    Aye. Let's bring in another ex manager into the fold. Why not really go for it and bring back Burley as a drinking partner for Stein-del.

    I hope they do. Players would surely lose respect for Stendel if he can't gee them up himself.

    ER pitch is in good nick. Maybe we should invite them round to show them how it is done. Show Stendel a bit of Christmas spirit.

    The other thing to note from this was that despite making a big song and dance about how their stand would be income generating with offices let out, they've said they can't do it because it costs too much with too little return.

    They are genuinely an absolute shambles.

    It was on special offer, 1 for the price of 2.

    That's actually quite a simple question. She and her business partner built their software company up from scratch and sold it for millions to a French company.

    The fact they have made the people who brought in the players that sees them fighting relegation as the ones overseeing further transfer recruitment gives me more hope they will at minimum be in the play offs at the end of the season. I think Stendel will walk by February/March.

    Yes, and the other "income generating" news was the fall off in hospitality bookings, which "genius Budge" put down to "lower crowds"..........

    There was acknowledgement by her that - without the donators, their cashflow was up **** creek and that the money had been used to pay (these !!) players wages.

    The guys in the studio were scathing about the chances of them offloading in January due to the mental salaries they are paying.

    And - it has to be said - fair play to Brian McG for posing the questions, recording the answers and putting them out tonight.

    I suspect there might be a few of the radges starting to understand - if it was us I would be worried

    Funny as ****, mind

    Given that those accounts are only up to the end of June and they won’t include what they are now paying for the likes of Whelan and Naismith on his permanent deal, I would suspect their position now is even more shaky.

    Those donations from the mystery benefactors won’t keep rolling in forever, and with the team they’ve got now there’s no danger they’ll get to another Scottish Cup final to boost their coffers.

    I believe the phrase “tick tick” might need dusted off again soon......

    Few concerns OMG it’s laughable. They have a 400k budget deficit and it’s only December. The new manager wants new players and his coaches but neither can come in because they cannot afford to.

    I really do wonder what their finances would actually be like without the donations??

    Throwing big wages at ageing players has got them where???? An £8 million pound wage bill.

    It will never ever sink in with them and the generations of them used to this see no wrong!

    I’ve just had a thought (dangerous I know) say they had 15,000 ST and they cost say 500 a piece. That’s only £7 million quid! There wage bill is £8 million FFS they are in the ****
