RFC72RFC 9 Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 At least there are a few positives:- We don't have to give Mike Ashley £500,000- The SPFL will continue to lose money next season- The deadwood will be gone (ie. Jig, Moshni, Boyd, Daly etc.)- We can build a team so that when we return to the top they can compete with Celtic- We're still The People.

TheQueensEleven 1,355 Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Aww shut the fuck with this positives shite.Getting pumped out the play off finals by Motherwell has no positives. It's utterly embarrassing and the players, manager and previous coaching staff have let the fans down.Simple as that.You say we can get rid of the deadwood and build a team to compete with Septic.... aye, loads of players will want to play a season in the Scottish Championship for us after seeing us fail to get out of it once already.

Clemdog 39,389 Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 We aren't building a team capable of competing with celtic while we are in the Scottish first division.King said otherwise, interestingly. I know I'll get people saying 'King said this, King said that.' But I'm only saying what he said in his interviews after he was passed clear as a FPP. He said there would be more investment if we stayed down than if we went up, I'd imagine that's down to wages and such having to be higher to compensate being in a shite League. I certainly think it'll be very hard to do so, even if he has said that. It's down to those guys to prove us wrong though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much certain he said there would be more investment if we went up as we'd need to get somewhere near competitive within one transfer window.

Clemdog 39,389 Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Starts at 3.20.States initial investment would need to £30Million, but if we missed another Season in the SPL it could be £37-£40Milllion. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I certainly think it'll be very hard to do so, even if he has said that. It's down to those guys to prove us wrong though. I just don't think we are in a position to attract the calibre of player needed to compete at celtics level playing where we are and if the way to do it is going to be throwing loads of money at people to entice them then I don't want us to either because we've been badly stung with that approach already.I still think the best option is to focus on sorting the infrastructure out so that in a years time we've built a strong database of players who have been scouted in detail while trying to build a team capable of getting out of SD1 at as little expense as we can manage.Obviously that's going to cause issues becuase we have to sell season tickets and keep the fans on side, but that's where somebody coming out and explaining the plan is vital.We are basically in a similar position now to what we were in 2012 and surely we can't fuck it up as much as we did that then?

bennybongo 110 Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 We are a train wreck. I honestly don't see us getting promoted next term, and I don't see any money being fronted up by King. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

auchinairn true blue 58 Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Regardless of whether we went up or not this squad were no where near good enough for a team like Rangers, King will need to get investment from somewhere and P.D.Q. Stuart did a lot with the shite he inherited but you can't make a silk purse from a sow's ear, a top to bottom clear out is needed and a radically new approach to coaching and training need to be introduced before its too late to retrieve the situation.
