Many memories of this period, just like many others.

I started Pars Alive on Facebook and it took off overnight. I think once things were being exposed to the public fans began to believe that things had to change and that things were indeed worse than what was being made out.

There was a clamour for information and an obvious willingness to start coming together to save and arrest the clubs seemingly hopeless situation.

It wasn't pleasant for some and some took some real personal chances to their own detriment for doing what they believed to be the best thing for the clubs future.

The meetings that took place, the arguments, the farce of DAFC.net during this period, the legal threats, the underhand stuff going on, the protests, the Old Inn before the Dumbarton game, the banners, the coming together of fans not known to each other, influential people coming in from no where to help out, TV stuff, newspaper articles, the foresight and determination of natural leaders who galvanised the different factions, the way they changed doubters minds and the whole thing moving to where we are now as a club. Simply fantastic.

The journey is only just beginning.

There are too many positives to mention now, but a few are, Charlie D's and Legends pre and post match. Lizzie supporters club. Marv and her shop. The disabled supporters group and the fantastic work being done. The Pars Heritage Trust. The volunteers helping maintain the stadium. The collection cans. The monthly supporters get together with the club patrons. The overall social inclusion and engagement with the fans .......all adding up to a club I want to be part of.

Sadly I couldn't find the video of Masterton forgetting the door code, which will never not be funny.

 

Oh and the refurbishment of Legends greatly pleased me, especially that photo of the ****ing ****ey Elvis figure on Halbeath Road after it had been removed. Still think they should change the name Legends.
