STFU

Please tell me you've washed it!

Did the hat look like this one?

On the topic of Scot Gardiner as per the thread title. Does anyone else think he exhibits the behaviours of a dictator?

I'd say it was more of an opinion than an act of abuse.

Have they? Until we know how much is involved here and the level of debt that needs serviced, then we really don't know what they've done. If you blow £10000 on scratch cards and win £10000, is that playing an absolute blinder or just getting lucky? These guys put us in the position we were in and have taken a serious risk with the clubs existence. The decision in the clubs favour scraped through on the margin of 1 vote. Not sure that counts as low risk. Even if there is a net financial benefit, are these really the right people to be leading the club and in control of the money?

All that can only happen if there's anything left after clearing debts.

The Community Trust is also self funded. With the club doing nothing directly in terms of fan or community engagement these days, and failed ventures that have cost local businesses more than they've provided, it would be impossible to show any socioeconomic benefit of their own.

If the club is in that bad a state then it's no surprise that the chairman has put charges in place to make sure he gets paid back and has control of club assets ahead of any others who are owed money. Wednesday's decision could conceivably trigger an insolvency event for the club.

Was part of the planning consent that they run a park and ride for construction staff. The new owners hope to begin construction in 2026.

Yet again it would seem that inferences made by the CEO are having to be corrected by the Chairman. This time it's the Battery Storage being a one off windfall and not the ongoing income stream we were lead to believe it would be. What happens when that money (assuming it happens) has been swallowed up by debt and operating costs that are beyond our means? Do we just keep running up debt in the hope that another windfall arrives from somewhere? The most recent accounts show a hole in excess of £800k in required annual income. There's no hope of Premiership football on the horizon, the club are doing nothing to improve the fans experience or relationship with fans, so numbers will likely continue to fall and the pie in the sky ventures are alienating local businesses, damaging the support we get from there. It's an absolute shitshow and if they think fans can be placated and brought back by filling a few holes in the north car park, then it's just another example of how out of touch with reality they really are. Get these clowns to **** away from the club.

I did think Motorbikes was a strange one, but you may be a full on Harley Chick for all I know...lol

You originally said motorbike. Did you mean motorhome? If so, there's parking for them at Torvean and a bus passes every 20mins or so going into the city centre.

A motorbike can park anywhere a car can park, so if there's room for cars, there's room for them. I park at Rose St regularly and it's never full in the summer. Only time it's full is peak shopping time at Christmas, and not even certain it was then either last year.

There are two massive carparks in town (Rose St and Eastgate) that are rarely full, why would anyone go for a less convenient out of town parking option?

Should we get rid of the admin and accounts staff because the club's a shamble off the pitch? After all, many of them have been there longer than the last few Chairmen/CEOs.

So the club have borrowed money and given security against income they don't have yet. Was there not one of the Glasgow teams, who our CEO used to work for, that did something similar? Anyone recall how that worked out?

Anyone know what these are about? My phone isn't letting me download the PDFs from companies house.

The business done in this window could conceivably been done without us spending any more than we were already on wages. Without the battery farm money, then I don't see how we can rebuild for a strong/er season in 24/25 or even to the level we're at this season unless someone else throws a few hundred thousand into the abyss that is our finances. Ferguson is doing what he can to keep the team in this league this season, but it falls to the CEO and Board to ensure finances are in place to allow him to do anything beyond that. Our future will be determined by the Highland Council planning department.

Oh well, back to believing he just couldn't be arsed, with no reason for it.

The squads now looking like it might provide a bit more flexibility and dynamism if new players live up to reputations. My only concern is the number of changes as we can't afford any further slump due to taking time to bed in.

£16500 in unlawful deductions from wages is a fair skelp and I can't even begin to speculate what it could have been in relation to. Might explain his apparent lack of effort when he came back on loan?

If we're going to cash in on Harper then now is the time as we'll be entitled to a decent development fee.

I'm confident it'll be every bit as successful as the concerts.

Harper possibly away also.

We could move the stadium 3 hours away from Inverness.
