Pars were supposed to go into it together with rosyth and ground share.

I thought the timings were very different between that and the investment coming in? I don’t know enough and haven’t gone looking into the detail but I’ve seen it thrown a few times that the club has supposedly shat on Rosyth, but then never seen anythin concrete that says why.

Considering the training ground still isn't up and running, and Rosyth have now folded it's some leap to blame Dunfermline for this. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They left recs years ago, it was the fallen through lidl deal that they left for, but one of the potential sites for the new ground was potentially at our training ground. I think we were guilty of poor communication, opening discussions and not formally ending them isn’t great. But I think shafted is a bit of an exaggeration. They were shafted by the council being forced out of recs before a suitable ground had been built I’d say. It wasn’t our responsibility to do a deal tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rosythpar Posted February 7 Report Share Posted February 7 They are blaming the council, Dunfermline and Pitreavie for them folding. It was Dunfermline who contacted them first and verbally agreed to share the civil service. Rosyth found out via the papers that they would not be involved anymore. Rosyth have been treated terribly since leaving the rec. I know a few committee members voiced concerns about getting involved with Masterton and Pitreavie.

rosythpar Posted February 7 Report Share Posted February 7 🔴⚫🔴⚫🔴 CLUB STATEMENT ⚫🔴⚫🔴⚫ After confirmation the Civil Service lease agreement has now been made with DAFC we as a club have felt the need to respond to recent comments made on social media. We can confirm the initial proposal submitted to CSSC by DAFC did include Rosyth Seniors FC. The plans included an East of Scotland standard pitch that would accommodate Rosyth FC. DAFC approached Rosyth Seniors FC at outset and requested they consider being included in this proposal. As a club we were excited to be included in such an opportunity and it was clear there was an enthusiasm in the local community. As talks progressed between all organisations we kept in contact with each other and there were meetings held with all parties included. For whatever reason during these discussions the decision was made that Rosyth Seniors FC were not to be included in the final lease agreement. The reasoning behind this has never been explained or offered to the club. To say we were disappointed was an understatement as the project has again set us back on our objective of securing a park. This project was to be an inclusive community project with the local senior football team being in-bedded in the heart of Rosyth. Unfortunately this is no longer the case and coupled with existing users of the facility being asked to leave the site due to the new lease agreement, it is again a kick in the teeth for local football. On a positive note we will move on as a club. The communication lines with Fife Council have never been stronger and we are currently working closely with Fife Council on two new proposals. Once a decision is made in the very near future we hope to have a new ground secured by the start of next season. As always thank you for your continued support.

I've criticised the club in the past, I'll criticise the club in the future. I won't criticise them for not wanting another club to use there training ground as a first team stadium. What would Dunfermline have gotten out of this? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exploring all avenues with regards to keeping costs down? Once explored you can then decide whether the other party are bringing enough to warrant what you would give up. It seems we ran the math, and didn't deem it as worth it. Edited February 7 by Grant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
