That would be the most sensible idea but this is Scottish football. I don't want to be negative but I can see these restrictions lasting for three months.

Him saying that they haven't been given a heads up seems to me that he didn't think any restrictions would be in place for these fixtures. These restrictions have been on the cards for the last few weeks, it shouldn't have been a massive surprise to the BOD.

A bit worrying that a board member wouldn't realise that football would be hit with restrictions,this has been in the pipeline for a few weeks.

They would have been better waiting till after the FM's announcement to tweet anything regarding tickets for the festive fixtures. They must have had an idea that some kind of restrictions would be coming. On our bus through to kilmarnock we thought it could be the last game we would be able to go to for a while.

Looks like we will get to go to EEP 1 in 4 home games under the new restrictions.

500 max from boxing day

Dick applied for the job in the summer and after grant was sacked,someone at the club didn't like the podcast he done on the BBC and used it against him.

Surely has to get manager of the year in Scotland this season? Him and Pink have done an amazing job at Arbroath,taking them from near the bottom of league 2 now in a promotion battle to get into the premiership. They have also trebled the season ticket sales and had to double the size of the hospitality. I don't think he always gets the credit he deserves.

Hughes was on the radio the other day and made a comment saying I have a todorov he can have. I was sat next to Kennedy's uncle at the Morton game and he thinks Rangers will recall him in January but that was before yogi came in. I don't think many other championship clubs could afford to pay 25% of Kennedy's wages so he might stay.

Yogi in the press this week saying that we have the budget at the moment to bring one or two players in the January window. If we want to bring in more, one or two will need to be moved on. So who do we think will the club will come to an agreement with and terminate their contract? Mehmet, Jones,Pybus, Cole, Dow? I think one of the strikers will be moved on, maybe Todorov. Ross Graham and Kai Kennedy will return to their parent clubs,that will free up some wages. The January window is always a tough one to operate in though, Meggle and Yogi have a hard job. We might have to have a look in to the foreign market and use some of Meggle's contacts. I spoke to a Director last week and he said Yogi will be backed in January.

If Saturdays game goes ahead it could be the last one for us this year I think.

Work started on the training academy about a month ago,Bob Purvis' men have been working on the building inside. I am led to believe it will be a different construction company who will be working on the three pitches. Its going to be interesting to see the development of the ground over the next few months,I pass it everyday when out with the dog.

I know two brothers who left the old Dunfermline youth team because of Stephen Wright and one of them was captain.

Will be playing in today's bounce game vs Livingston.

Hamish French will be one of the coaches involved with the new youth set up.

It was Stuart Kettlewell who ran Yogi close.

Yogi will be backed in January, hopefully its not too late

New Falkirk manager.

It seems nowadays one bad run of form costs a manager his job,I would have stuck by him if i was Ron Gordon. One thing Ross Mcarthur is that he sticks by his manager and is loyal to him.

Ross and Ron Gordon's relationship hasn't been good for a while.

Waiting on a part coming,hopefully be here soon bud.

Game might be postponed on Saturday,problem with the electrics in the main stand.

We need 3 points on the board,we need wins now because there is still 12 points to play for before we can start trying to strengthen the squad.

Did Hughes not come out and say that he cant play 2 upfront because he has to play 5 in the midfield?

Meggle had identified 4 or 5 foreign players in the summer transfer window and they weren't all German.
