i like Raith Rovers. Turnbull Hutton From the RRFC website. Particularly like the bit about taxes and suppliers being fully paid up to date. Increased Profits Recorded by Raith Rovers FC As Chairman Turnbull Hutton Announces His Intention To Step Down Accounts for the Year ended 30th June 2014 The Club’s accounts for the year ended 30th June 2014 have been finalised, approved and signed off by the Auditors. The accounts show almost a 20% increase in profit for the year of £97,499 (previous year £81,350). This has been achieved by an increase in turnover of 23.7% up to £1.29m and despite increased costs which included additional expenditure of £75,000 incurred in close season 2014 by way of improvements to stadium infrastructure and maintenance. As last year, the improved trading position has been principally achieved by the continuation of the business model introduced by the Board three years ago. As in any organisation, financial changes and improvements take time to be realised and it is encouraging to see results continuing in the right direction. Obviously the year’s results were enhanced by a good run in the Scottish Cup and, of course, the Ramsdens Cup Final. All of the Club’s staff must be congratulated for these achievements. The Club’s Balance Sheet also continues to improve with zero bank debt and all liabilities for taxes and suppliers fully up to date at the year end. As at 30th June 2014 only loans from directors of £88,000, and inter company debts totalling £338,000 remained outstanding. However it is essential that we maintain close supervision of costs in order to further improve the Club’s financial position. Season 2014/15 will be an interesting season with the inclusion of Hearts, Hibs and Rangers in the Championship. Despite anticipated additional income, the year will still be a financial challenge. Additional amounts were allocated to the playing budget but we have experienced a dramatic number of injuries in the first few weeks of the season. The 2014/15 budget for medical costs has already been substantially breached and additional costs have been incurred in behind the scenes infrastructure. The Board will, of course, continue to maintain tight control over expenditure in order to consolidate the business model. Board Composition Our Chairman, Turnbull Hutton, indicated to the Board several months ago, that it was his intention to stand down from the Chairmanship, and the various Boards, at an appropriate time in the course of 2014. Whilst remaining a significant shareholder, Turnbull is of the opinion that with age and health becoming factors, as well as family commitments, the time and circumstances are right for him to enjoy his football from the Main Stand. Work has been ongoing for some considerable time towards re-aligning the various companies within the RRFC framework and there is a consensus that we ideally require only 2 companies in the future – Raith Rovers and Stark’s Park Properties – ideally with cross representation on the respective Boards. Over the next few weeks there will be appointments of new directors with a view to having a new Board in place by the end of the year. This new Board will then elect a new Chairman and will immediately begin the necessary planning for next season as well as the restructuring previously referred to. Turnbull will chair the remaining Board meetings this year. This will be a seamless transition and will hopefully continue the progress both on and off the field that has been achieved to date. The Board would like to take this opportunity to publicly thank Turnbull for all his efforts, experience, wit and devil’s advocacy and can state, without doubt, that the Club remains in existence largely due to his leadership through some difficult and challenging times over the last decade.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/29974194 Morocco have failed to meet the deadline to confirm it will host the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations in January. The North Africans had requested a postponement because of fears over the Ebola outbreak. |

Was planning to go so pretty gutted about it. The organisation is a shambles anyway. The tournament is in January and there's still no match schedule and qualifying is still going on ![]() Unlikely their offer to host in 2017 will be taken up I would think. |

Zlatan wins the 8th Swedish player of the year award in a row, and the 9th in total (former Celtic player Fredrik Ljungberg is the one that mess up Zlatans row, winning it in 2006 while playing for Arsenal - Larsson was the player winning it the year before Zlatan won it for the first time) |
