Was it not still split gates early 90s...

I don't know the exact figures but I'd expect the well society, fund raising, euro prize money and euro ticket sales to be sufficient to get us through to the end of the season. Going into 12/13 we cut our squad accordingly. Ideally, we manage to sell a couple of players to ease the pressure. Tough times undoubtedly but I'm hopeful this season will prove to be a turning point in Scottish football.

Problem is, we are unable to facilitate a penny of debt due to our credit rating. As I suggested months ago, the well society was a glorified interest free overdraft but thankfully, it should just about keep us out of admin if we can't sell any players.

No signings if Sky/ESPN walk away. Would expect clarification from the Broadcasters after Mondays SPL meeting.

We were always liable to ship goals today with a makeshift defence. On top of that, we have nobody in the Jennings mould to protect the defence at present. Who knows how our squad will shape up come August but I look forward to the likes of Cummins, Hetherington, Devlin and Erwin making an impression.

Clancy scores curling free kick for hibs!?

Aw fuck. Bring back Rangers so we can sign replacements for Jennings and Clancy...

There 4 OF games clause allows Sky to renegotiate the 2012/13 deal. Strong suggestion that the offer on the table is £3mil.

Likewise. Now that Rangers fate has been decided, it is time for Sky to release their fixtures for 2012/13 and indicate whether they are exercising the clause to withdraw or renegotiate.

Got to wonder why one of the best SPL midfielders over the last 2.5 years has to go on trial at a League 1 club. Has he no interest in staying in Scotland as the likes of Hibs/Aberdeen would definitely be interested? Did we offer him a pittance or indeed withdraw the contract offer? Not like him to come back from the summer break out of shape...

Is the left back from Spurs not at a similar level? Looking forward to these lads getting the opportunity to break through this season.

Article doesn't really make sense. We will see at Ayr on Saturday but I suspect we may see Ramsden at centre half. Is Fraser Kerr still training with us? Can he play as a trialist while contracted to Birmingham?

Motherwell announced he wouldn't be coming back when Jennings was still open to negotiation.

Given that the spl/sfa/sfl stitch-up has been exposed further today, will there be an appetite across the country for a protest at Hampden this Friday?

I've just booked one weeks holiday in the algarve rather than the fortnight we originally planned. Leaves plenty of scope for a season ticket and well society membership. Committed to any extra pie and bovril at each game too.

I'll happily pump extra money into the club to help us through a difficult couple of seasons. However, the club have to focus on growing the core support and 2 European ties in August was the perfect opportunity to develop a feel good factor and encourage fairweather fans to attend on a more regular basis.

Champions League, we're taking the piss...

Dempster & co in the huff?

Way too pricey. Really can't believe that actually. I'll be there but I'll not be inviting the hangers-on that I usually do.

Not good news. I thought we were in safe hands with Weir at the helm, although recent financial figures would suggest otherwise.

Sporting integrity beyond purchase... Petrie certainly has got some explaining to do!

Distribution of Sky cash.

I look forward to a statement from Romanov tomorrow. Sad state of affairs but he's one of the few that I trust.

Have you seen the document that went to the sfl clubs following their meeting with the spl?

Were the well society members consulted in writing the blackmail note to the sfl?
