Alibi Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 It’s not just the manner of the defenestration of Partick’s promotion hopes that lifts the spirits - the injury time goal to level the tie - but also the tears & snotters emanating from Maryhill. How many fingers are you sticking up now, Brian? Must be a bit like getting elbowed in the face, eh? Something at which you do excel.

gmfc_craig Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Just sat down with a coffee after dropping my boys off at school, flick Sky Sports News on and first thing they show is highlights from Ross Co v Partick. Absolutely delightful stuff. Nice way to start my day off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob_the_builder Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 I was so busy yesterday I completely forgot about the game! Waking up to this news is absolutely glorious! Will be interesting to see what effect this has on them for next season and how it affects who stays and who leaves their squad. here today, gone to hell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Skelton Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 (edited) I can't remember the words Graham said about the Morton fans when he left but it left a bitter taste. So to see the hurt in his face yesterday made their loss even sweeter. Edited June 5, 2023 by Brian Skelton Big B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChampTon Posted June 6, 2023 Share Posted June 6, 2023 He's lucky he's played the amount of games he has considering he's quite suspect to throwing elbows at opposition defenders. After the 2-1 loss at Firhill in January he shat himself when Grimmy got a hold of him. Let's hope Dougie brings in a proper shithouse player next season who will give him a few whacks over the course of the season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cet Homme Charmant Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 It see they've just announced a 280k loss for the season just ended, blaming it on the previous board underestimating some costs and budgeting for promotion, and 'an anticipated investment into the club not materialising' Ach well.

But Brian Graham is a fkn cunt who plays for that horrible fkn cunt of a club so his opinion on whether the big bad cowshed got on his presious little nerves is fkn irrelevant. 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie_M Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 (edited) On 2/14/2023 at 10:21 AM, Jamie_M said: Aye, not in this statement but delving further paints an awkward picture for them. They made a bottom line operating loss for FY21/22 of £215k (which was propped up by Director handouts and Queens Park groundshare income which they won't have in the next accounts). Their true operating loss level without that non-recurring income was closer to £500k for each of 21/22 and 20/21. Their board has continued to spunk money at the same level since, even actually voting to increase the playing budget, and set a budget banking on promotion for this season. Their cash reserves fell to £330k, the lowest level since 2016. Interesting that you made the Morton comparison. The Jags Foundation also made the Morton comparison, giving us an honourable mention in their assessment of their accounts, highlighting that they were looking worse than us at a time when our financial situation was being well documented. The outgoing board wouldn't let anyone do any due diligence ahead of the share transfer. They also did some smoke and mirrors tactic of using a different method to evaluate the fixed assets like the stadium (rebuild cost rather than market value) to inflate them in these accounts so they would paint a rosier picture to fans. There's more skeletons to be found in there for sure. Having previously reported that their cash reserves were almost depleted, that the old board had bet it all on red by budgeting for promotion and that they needed directors loans to see out the season, a £280k loss is going to sting (although could have been worse without bonus cup income). Reduced budget for next season likely and the vultures circling to strip their squad. https://ptfc.co.uk/ptfc-news/club-update-7th-june-2023/ "If it had not been for a penalty shoot-out victory and a fortunate Scottish Cup draw, the February wages would not have been able to be paid." https://thejagsfoundation.co.uk/reaction-to-ptfc-statement-regarding-financial-situation/ They also needed donations to pay May's wages. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/65833197 Edited June 7, 2023 by Jamie_M 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cet Homme Charmant Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 They haven't even started selling season tickets yet, presumably because they didn't what division they'd be playing in, so that will probably tide them over the summer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ton in Shawlands Posted June 8, 2023 Share Posted June 8, 2023 They've staggered through it, can immediately start selling season tickets & will get through for now. Looks like they've only a small wage bill over the summer anyway. Hopefully they have a fire sale & have to shop in the bargain basement next year. (Personally I hope they try the same thing again, after all, it came within a minute of working.....). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cet Homme Charmant Posted June 10, 2023 Share Posted June 10, 2023 (edited) Not sure what I'd enjoy more..... for them just to go bust now and get it over and done with, or for them to stumble on and get relegated next season to their rightful place on League 1, and remain there indefinitely along with that other permadiddy outfit from Grangemeouth. Both outcomes are highly possible and would of course be hilarious, but not just sure which one would be the most. Thoughts?

GiGi Posted June 10, 2023 Share Posted June 10, 2023 All good in theory, but so long as they cut costs they'll be fine I think. Meanwhile, we're not minted either, only a bad season or two away from the same struggles. Or basically where we started last season. 1 Peter Weatherson is the greatest player since Ritchie, and should be assigned 'chairman for life' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
