I don't think the club used it as a PR opportunity at all. They issued a very low key press announcement after he was appointed and that was it. It wasn't as if the marketing team was taking out adverts to get you to buy a season ticket saying "SUPPORT YOUR TORY LORD". |

Radio scotland saying we've spent somewhere north of 35m since 2011 on 51 (fifty one ) players. That's fees. Not wages or signing on fees.A proper scouting system spending that kind of money on about 1/3 of that number added to a manager who knows how to set up a team would have taken us to the CL every year. Never mind a shrinking market, it's completely sustainable, or it was. It's a long way back from the shambles we've become. What a effing waste. |

Tony should know by know that after the club became a Private Limited Company, the amount donated to charitable causes fell was to virtually nothing! Only since Fergus and the move to become a PLC has that been dramatically reversed. Hat off to Tony for the magnificent work on all of that However we need to face facts and acknowledge the truth, anything else and we start going down the road of the Huns and zombies

DD exited after Huns went 2-1 up PL departed before the penalty shootout and was given escort out - wise in the circumstances |

Been told by someone who was near to both - no reason to disbelieve him As I said if I was PL I would have left before end as it would not have been comfortable for him at all out there As for DD he probably had a tee time at loch lomond |

No idea about the golfer but the PL statement is correct. Jamie Church and co would need more than their ex cop experience to have dealt with what would have greeted PL if he had been seen outside Hampden post that debacle. |

How undignified, to leave before the end Obviously they don't believe in the old maxim about a Captain going down with his ship! DD probably didn't want to give Kingy the chance to put the bite on him for a few bob PL - just a cowardly bandit- it it's true! They would have been nowhere near the support after the game if they didn't want to be! |

How much did we bring in during that period? Not saying we havent pissed away a load of money. Just think it shows a bit of balance having both figures. |

Seems to be a lot more tims in the media nowadays compared to when I was growing up. I remember John McPhail being the token tim at the record back in the sixties, and that was about it. |

Around 40m they said, which seems a bit light to me. Wanyama, Forster, VVD, KI, Hooper would be more than that. |

Correct. Individuals can have strong charitable motives, irrespective of their politics. I don't remember too many people questioning Fergus's politics. He just did what needed to be done to save the club. |

It's not like he had to get the club's permission to call himself Lord Livingston of Parkhead. His family has links to the area, which is probably why he picked it.
