Turning an amusing forum post into some sort of actual green light protest would be taking the joke a bit far I think.
Every man and their dug knows we should have went with a full compliment of imports from the start of the season, but for whatever reason it hasn't happened.
An explanation from the directors as to why would be great - even if they said the budget doesn't allow for it, then I think most folk would have to take them at their word and accept it even if they don't agree with it.
For example, maybe if the Flyers are making money this year they need to keep some back to contribute to the cost of the new ice plant that's forthcoming - who knows.
More transparency from the club would help I think.

They got the same grant that Edinburgh did for the plant anyway.

I like the green app idea the app i have is droid light but i'm sure theres plenty others, and no it's not my app and i get nothing from the dls of same  A good app is LED Scroller 3, its free, it turns your screen into a scrolling text display, you can write your own text and have it scrolling across your screen in giant letters |

There is more than just Mr Muir that owns the FIA. (5 in total, Jack Wishart isn't one of them)

You are correct that they are separate legal entities but if the ice rink business was struggling to find the funds for the new plant and the Flyers business was sitting there with a big wad of cash, then seeing as the Muir family is involved in both businesses you'd think there be some movement of cash between the 2 as both businesses need each other. If the plant goes boom, then the Flyers are dead, so its in their interests to maintain the facility just as much as the ice rink business needs the plant or their business is also dead. I was merely speculating that this may be one reason that the Flyers business is being conservative with the playing budget if they have other costs on the horizon. |
