You are correct.
I suspect discussions are still ongoing. Often it is a balance between HMRC wanting money now, and sensitivity of pushing a club under. I think dunfermline will be walking a tight rope for awhile, as if they don't solve the cash imbalance, HMRC will eventually say enough is enough and put them into receivership.
Just another sad story of a club living beyond its means. My own view, you pay your bills, or you take consequences. Same as my own life.

It should be an interesting game next week.

Jackie McNamara and Simon Donnelly are doing a great job. 9 years out of the SPL, would be good to see them back.

Would be good to see Thistle back in the SPL. Remember Sid getting into the Celtic side and being hailed as the new Dalglish God I'm getting old

Re: The Scottish Football Thread
Much much better last night. That's what we are capable of. Now rest most against Arbroath and on to the big one on Wednesday

This is blantantly used to circumvent legimate taxes. Whilst cheating is the norm for some, I find it distasteful. i pay taxes, why should others cheat.
And they have cheek to complain about benefit cheats...I find this cheating worse.

Re: The Scottish Football Thread
The Rangers are aiming for more world records:

Lowest number of fans travelling to an away fixture
There's the possibility of most charges of bringing the game into disrepute too.

Re: The Scottish Football Thread
I hope Celtic get the result they want, even if it is just Benfica losing
