Dunfermline were handed a "Winding Up Order" this afternoon by HMRC. Does this mean they are finnished, or are there options to escape being sent to oblivion still available?

Can't see Cardle coming to our club for some reason. I'm not sure why

Cardle, McMillan or Ryan Wallace would be worthwhile signings. Wouldnt bother with anyone else. 

Andy Barrowman has joined Dundee till the end of season

Dundee building a strike force for SFL1 there.

 

Cardle would be a smashing signing.

Andy Barrowman joins Dundee, a duo of lost causes in the SPL...match made in Heaven.

Apparently (according to a knuckledragger at work) Dunfermline would have been okay if "the" Rangers had been allowed to stay in the SPL.

 

Nurse!!!

Dunfermline now confirmed as being docked 15points : http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/22085474

 

 

Dunfermline Athletic have been docked 15 points for going into interim administration. The Scottish Football League enforced the immediate points deduction following a board meeting. The penalty puts the First Division side into ninth place, two points behind neighbours Cowdenbeath in the relegation play-off spot. A transfer embargo also prohibits the Pars signing players aged over 21 until they come out of administration.

 

Dunfermline will also be subject to a further 10-point penalty and be required to pay a £150,000 guarantee if they do not secure a Company Voluntary Arrangement by the start of next season.

Puts them into the dangerzone for relegation playoffs.

The punishment seems reasonable and proportionate to me.

And consistent with others in the past.
