21/03/2009 -
Many thanks for the
support we have received in our campaign, morale and financial. The
Loreburn deal will secure the clubs future and due to the
management skills they will bring to the party the club will never
be allowed to go back to old ways.
We have been instructed by Loreburn and the club to continue the
fundraising, the debts will be refinanced by means of a soft
loan,which we can afford. But the club still won't have any cash, we
have creditors crying out for money and they'll want it before the
Loreburn deal completes in mid May.
We have organised some events locally to help us in the meantime.
The plan would be for the supporters trust to kick in after May,
Loreburn have advised that they would welcome the involvement of a
fans trust.
Thanks again for the support
