parsforlife Posted June 9 Report Share Posted June 9 (edited) Just for a show of how much money we're losing out on to our competitors with our strategy, worth baring in mind before praising any investment.

Raymie Posted June 9 Report Share Posted June 9 That’s a lot of money at our level. Would our average wage for a player be about £1k per week ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect the wages at our level have pushed far higher than fans suspect. There's clubs pushing 3+M turnover a year at the top end and based on a the apparent golden rule of 60% wages to turnover and a 20 man squad that's about £1700 a week per player. But I do agree on the sentiment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superally Posted June 9 Author Report Share Posted June 9 Very interesting figures @parsforlife We really have to do better in cup competitions - even the diddy cup. we may take better crowds and have better ST sales than other clubs but the amount that extra is factored in it would only possibly take us up a couple of places in that table. Good recruitment is absolutely vital for this season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelty_par Posted June 9 Report Share Posted June 9 Lewis strapp and his mum just started following Dunfermline on twitter… maybe a sign in that. Would be a good replacement for Josh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al k Posted June 11 Report Share Posted June 11 40 minutes ago, kelty_par said: 1500 season tickets sold so far That's very low and a indication of the apathy amongst the majority of the fans. Lack of decent club updates, strip expected nearly two weeks ago. Not sure how we Haven't managed to push out a campaign for season ticket under the premise of kicking on for the playoff's and another season of progression. I know it was a bit meh in the end but still midtable finish, youngsters win a cup and we have new training facilities. Can't we promote this rather than negative tumbleweed and one video. Thought this was what our new marketing staff were all about? 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Secure Par Posted June 11 Report Share Posted June 11 1 hour ago, kelty_par said: 1500 season tickets sold so far I think a lot of fans will be waiting to see what team we have first then decide on a ST. I’m just going pay at gate tbh. I really thought the strips would have been released by now tbh as that will make some £££. The fanzine still has 150 tickets left but hopefully bring in money. Promote the cup winning reserve side but our academy facilities looks a dive.. more or less just an Astro pitch that hasn’t been finished round it to accommodate spectators.. remember we invite pro youth teams to play down there which is embarrassing imo with a boarded up mess and parking facilities. In all I think Kane was our major signing and with the 1 million loss don’t expect anything decent coming in. Has Mr Cook since he took over the job actually done anything to drive the club forward? I feel the club has gone backwards when Ross went….where are our German owners? We get nothing from them..I can see McPake and his coaching team getting a bit ****ed off at some point. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA-go Par Adonis Posted June 11 Report Share Posted June 11 I'm very grateful for what Ross McArthur did but when he left we had been relegated to League 1, so the answer to one of your questions is clearly yes. Germany is probably the answer to your other one... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottyboy Posted June 11 Report Share Posted June 11 I've never bought a ST in years, as I know I wouldn't make all the games, so PATG suits me better. I believe there was no early burd ticket, so maybe fans will wait till the last minute to buy. Think the PR side could be doing with a tweek regarding promoting the club. I've no idea what the training facilities look like, or even the guy Cook. If the football is good, the support will turn up, as it has always been .

Secure Par Posted June 11 Report Share Posted June 11 I drive past our “Academy training facility” and it’s a ****hole with a brand new astroturf pitch.. no parking and an abandoned boarded up building(our state of the art training facility)..as said it’s not really good for the 1st team and embarrassing playing any youth games at. This Academy isn’t going to plan and making the club look like a joke…honestly the place is a dive💁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a question for the next club meeting if I remember. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a ****show and embarrassing saying this is an academy training centre. Heard they will be putting in portacabins for showers etc so that will make the “Academy” a place to get young/professional players to sign…Where is the German investors with the money? Their main intention was to build an academy/training ground..🤷🤷 Place is a ****hole🤷🤷 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
