A number of things stopped me seeing the beginning of this programme, but I really enjoyed what I did see. It was a great story and it made it better knowing that it was 'really real'. Thanks for the tip off.

What is the point of upping the performance to beat or even draw with Rangers, when we can't take points of the teams round about us.

I had a chat with a County fan and former board member. He agreed that Cowie isn't exactly performing to the best of his ability at the moment, but he did say that Cowie and Rankin together are a great combination. Maybe that's what Charlie is thinking about. Rankin is our record signing so far, so there is no way Charlie is going to let him go so soon. Charlie rates him as a player and maybe Cowie is the missing link. As I said in another post I am actually looking forward to the transfer window this time around. We do need to strengthen the squad and there is no doubt we will lose some of our main squad either in January or in the summer. Interesting times ahead.

Sandy a very generous gesture indeed. I'm sure that would be well received. Just a small point of order though.. The Club don't actually get involved in the testimonial events. The player appoints himself a testimonial committee who organise events. I had though that Rossco's team had let him down a bit as nothing much has happened, so I'm very glad to see these forthcoming events.

I notice DLM have a new wheelchair taxi. 01463 222403. A small local company called PDS 01463 729666 also have some. Best book in advance though as it is well documented that they are not too readily available on demand.

I would love to come as I haven't been to a Pars game yet. Unfortunately it's a bad time of year for a taxi driver to take time off. Next time I promise.

Fair comment Kingsmills. It's a bit of a catch 22 - to do more needs more members, but we need to raise awareness to attract new members. There are 1 or 2 things already in the pipeline for 2007 and the communication with the club has improved beyond recognition. The new club chairman is an avid supporter of the trust which also helps. For your information, a couple of members of the trust board (usually the chair and vice chair) meet with the club monthly, which is followed by a monthly Trust Board Meeting. There is usually a full trust meeting every 6 months, the AGM and then 1 other as a way of updating the members, and allowing members an opportunity to make their points too. These meetings have so far been followed by a very entertaining and informative fans forum. The status of the trust is growing, but can only grow more with more members. So don't sit there thinking if only they did this or that, check out the website and send an e-mail with questions or ideas. It's open to all so get your applications in and then the voice of the trust will be a true representation of a wide range of fans.

The member's club was a closed shop and numbers were dwindling. The share transfer has taken a long time to process as there have been loads of legal hoops to jump through. Seems it just needs ratification by the club now for it to go through. I think and hope that the trust will have a slightly higher profile this year and will continue to grow. At least people can join the trust and be involved, unlike the member's club. So just fill out that form CaleyD and at least you can have an involvement. I think that the voting rights which will be transferred will be a big selling point to potential new members. I believe that the trust voting rights will be the highest percentage of any trust in the SPL!!!

reserve fixtures They take a bit of a winter break, although we have a couple of postponments to catch up on. No word of them yet though.

Okay I'll have a go at this one, but it is by no means gospel. I think that a suspension caused by an accumulation of penalty points takes effect 14 days from the date of the offence. Saturday was the 16th, so I think he will be suspended for the game on the 30th and possibly the 1st depending on the length of his suspension. Should be available for the Rangers game though and obviously the Dunfermline game on Saturday. We had a similar discussion about Blackie and I think this is what we eventually came up with.

Good morning Midge, haven't heard from you in a bit. Hope you are well. No Charlie isn't away yet and I don't expect him to be. Although for the first time I am looking forward to the transfer window as we do need to freshen things up a bit.

I agree the first half was a great game and the ref did well. 2nd half the ref spoilt the game. If he was handing out yellow cards for diving there should have been a few more waved in the Killie direction. :018: I have witnessed a lot of poor refereeing, but the 2nd half yesterday was the most biased performance I have seen in a long time.

A small group of us eventually gathered (but then they say it's quality rather than quantity that counts) :004: Had a good time and Biro didn't disappoint. :021: :021:

NOT ME!!!!!!

Well done everyone and a big thank you to Alan Savage for spending the time answering all of these questions. As I said following the fan's forum, I was very impressed with his vision for the club and look forward to seeing the club progress 'off the park' as well as on it over the next couple of seasons. :025: :025: :025: :025:

:015: :015: :015: Nice one IHE

Haven't paid much attention to it, but I think they must or can you not just feed the machine to buy time?? I'll check on Saturday.

cheers buffy and the same to you and yours

There are really good. We're on a night out, but we'll pop in if we get a chance, don't know what kind of night to expect. You will enjoy them though.
