Dunfermline apply to go into Administration

[bornabear 6,205]

So here we have the first Club to go into Admin since our demise last year.

It would be welcoming to see exactly what the SFA does, by means of sanctions against Dunfermline FC.

My guess is that it will show us and the whole Football World, just how vindictive they (SFA) were when it happened to us.

Really mate?

interesting times, hearts next?

[Fools Gold 488]

They have to be given the same punishments we got for going into administration.

Anything less defies 'sporting integrity' does it not?

Never saw myself as the vindictive type, but fuck 'em and I hope so.

Broken news

[TravelingWilBEARy 4,319]

I feel for their fans. The lunatics on here will react predictably though.

[Fools Gold 488]

I feel for some of their fans. The lunatics on here will react predictably though.

Fixed that for you, TravelingWiiBEARy.

I don't feel for their fans at all, I know a number of DAFC 'fans' who rarely go to games and were perfectly happy to see us go into admin last year.

The only people I feel for are those who will lose their jobs.

1 down many more to come and I don't give a shit

[mclovin9091 1,388]

To be honest im surprised its only been one team so far. I predicted at least 3 or 4 teams would have gone down this route by crimbo.

Plus the more teams that enter administration the less of an excuse the scum have to attempt to prevent us from promoting. Not that thats going to happen

[GR09 37]

Nearly made me puke when someone from Dunfermline, I forget who, complained to the papers yesterday that the SFA hadn't done enough to help Dunfermline with their predicament. Just be thankful that bunch of incompetents aren't actively putting obstacles in the way of your survival, mate !

[cushynumber 25,178]

crikey! I didn't see this coming!

[JohnHardie 1,405]

A sad day for Dunfermline supporters. We know their pain.

[CalvinC 1,414]

It is sad, but that's life I'm afraid. The economy is fucked, it will ovbiously impact football as well.

[mason boyne 40]

does dunfermline have any decent players we can sign on pre-contract?

[The Educator 1,572]

Sadly for their fans their chairman and I believe a very vocal minority of their support were happy to see the Rangers suffer. Well if you let the turkeys in your midst vote for Christmas don't expect me to have too much sorrow for you predicament when you are in the oven waiting for it to be lighted.

It's only an automatic points deduction isn't it?

If they have to newco that's when it becomes interesting

The problem with that is that the punishment for admin will be dished out by the SFL, not the SPL or SFA.

I am still waiting however for the SFA to instigate disrepute charges against both Hearts and Dunfermline for failing to pay tax and NI

[Big Al 55 9,275]

Punishment for going into administration is the responsibility of the league body as far as I'm aware.

[KingKirk 25,665]

If they go bust that's our spl 2 spot secured.

[Albertz 78 918]

Imagine all the damage to schools and hospitals Dunfermline's cheating has caused.

Surly now sporting integrity must take over and harsh penalties imposed on them.

[8watp8 254]

Some of these comments are quite sad especially after we all had it and knows how it feels, you have got to feel for their genuine fans, I know a season ticket holder who has been the last 10+ years. It is not their fault and unfortunately it is the innocent football fan that suffers. Fuck your business all clubs belong to their fans!!
