Squirrelhumper Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 As much as I honestly admire clubs like Killie(us small boys must stick together) you did have a number of years when you were paying stupid wages to players nullifying similar sized clubs. The money wasn't Killie's. No better than the currant buns. There's plenty of worst culprits than us. Motherwell, Dundee, Hearts and even then they aren't comparable to Rangers. Our debt restructure was no different from likes of Aberdeen. Our debt was also going down year on year but bank wanted out. We no longer own the hotel. We spent big wages for a couple of seasons I'll agree there but most of the league did (not that that's an excuse) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squirrelhumper Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 Ironic thing is that our cup winning sides of 1997 and 2012 were when we started paying within our means. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the time money that was bank money was being thrown about though, Geoff Brown was all over the media about it. Livvy threatened to take him to court. If Brown wasn't such a gentleman about it, he should've went to absolute town on those Jimmy Hunts once he was proved correct! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbcmfc Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 Interesting debate! Motherwell, Dundee, Dunfermline and livi for starters were worse than Killie at the time. To be fair to Stjohnstone they have always been run pretty well and within their means, probably cost them promotion a few times as Gretna, livi and possibly Dundee? Pipped them to promotion.
