Redwhiteandblue 3,330 Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 Anyone that seen the thread from the East Stirling fan on here a week or two ago would know what the OP is on about. We all know the shire have been rank rotton for years, finishing the bottom of Div 3 on a record number of times, if I'm correct?Anyway, they had their own problems with their own 'craig whyte' type arsehole who took advantage of their debt problems and demoloished their stadim to sell to a supermarket. The shire are now homeless and ground share with, Stirling Albion is it? They have around 300 hardcore fans who go along every week to watch their team get humped every single week, proper football fans. I think their only song is- we're black, we're white, our team is fucking shite East Stirling East stirling. It's a shame what has happened to their team, a cup game at Ibrox could've sorted all ther problems out for them. I have no idea how they got in to so much debt though, sure I read that they have a wage cap of £10/wk. I mght be wrong with that though. Anyway, I have no connection to them whatsoever, but I can feel their pain. I hope one day they can have a stadium once again to call their own. They might be the worst team in Britain, but they are still a team with loyal fans so all the best to them and good luck with getting a stadium sorted out, hopefully sooner rather than later.

topgoalie 637 Posted August 12, 2012 Author Share Posted August 12, 2012 Right thats me sobered up now, a fckn 4 year old could have put over a better case :blush:Anyway what i meant to say was one of my local teams have now got to share with Stenhousemuir fc because their little stadium is being razed to the ground as we speak. According to an ex board member they had got into debt to the tune of £45,000,knowing this another ex board member and his cohorts bailed them out offering £55,000,for the ground on a prime site in the middle of Falkirk,right next to the retail park for an area that could be worth £4.5 million. when fully developed.My point being there is a silver cloud on every horizon,for this small humble club to be playing the mighty Ger's 4 times this season is a dream come true, and when it comes to business,football it seems is an irrelevance,right now where was i :beer1: :beer1: Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilbert 416 Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 My cousin (Danny Diver) managed them a few years ago and I can remember him saying some players were on £20 a week Going to be a big day for their players and supporters alike Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
