Encore un bon joueur qui se barre dommage!
mais bon Gretna a des pbs par contre quelque soit le niveau 41 buts en championnat en 24 apparences c'est énormes même CR & LF ne feront pas aussi bien cette saison. 
En même temps marquer 2 buts aux Rangers peut aussi vouloir dire que la défense des Huns est nulle!
wouah! 4-0 devant Kilmarnock la lutte pour le maintien est relancé en bas de classement!

wouah! 4-0 devant Kilmarnock
la lutte pour le maintien est relancé en bas de classement!
4-0 pour Gretna c'est peut-être le début d'une remonté même si il reste du chemin à faire, surtout que Kilmarnock et juste avant dernier mais sa reste toujours encourageant un tel score surtout que le match n'est pas fini
finalement 4-2 mais tout est encore possible! surtout qu'ils ont encore 1 match en retard pas Kilmarnock, y a St Mirren qui peut encore descendre pour les autres équipes je pense que le maintien est assuré, il faut entre 33 & 35 pts pour se maintenir disons que vu que Gretna a pris beaucoup de retard peu de pts en début de saison 33 devrait suffir voir 32 mais avec 35 c'est sur le maintien est dans la poche.

J'aimerais bien qu'ils se maintiennent car ils ont le mérite d'avoir évolué en très peut de temp et d'avoir atteint la première division
En tous cas je suis de tout coeur avec Gretna sur le coup, pas que leur maintien me concerne particulièrement, mais l'idée de voir Killie relégué ca me plait beaucoup
C'mon the Weddingmakers, get Killie out of SPL (or Falkirk, of course
, but now, it seems to be a bit difficult 
)
Je sais pas ce que j'ai avec l'anglais ce soir mais je pense que je dois devenir très lourd

Falkirk ne peut plus descendre 
mais Kilie sa serait pas une grosse perte vu la passion qu'ils déchainent quand ils jouent à Rugby Park on a l'impression qu'ils jouent à huit clos, ils font un bide niveau affluence pourtant ils ont un des meilleurs stades de la SPL!

Comme on dit, un supporter de Killie à Rugby Park, c'est un supporter des huns de la ville qui n'a pas assez de sous pour se payer le voyage à Ibrox
Donc la seule perte (et encore c'est bien parce qu'il faut trouver un truc), ca serait la non présence du club professionnel le plus vieux d'Ecosse dans l'élite.

Kilmarnock a battu St Mirren sa n'arrange pas trop Gretna tout sa
Bah disons que le nul aurait été le meilleur résultat pour Gretna vu que les 2 équipes devant eux se rencontraient!
Gretna-Dundee encore reporté :o ca alourdi la fin de saison
Dundee...utd!
oui ^^ en théorie il se rejoue ce soir 
Défaite 3-0 à domicile devant Dundee Utd y aura pas de 3e victoires consécutives contre Utd cette saison, là je pense que le maintien c'est un peu plus mort!
Les buteurs:
Garry Kenneth (16e)
Morgaro Gomis (51e)
David Robertson (64e)
devant 507 spectateurs!

Gretna to opt for administration
Gretna
Gretna will go into administration on Monday as the club continue to struggle for survival.
It will mean an immediate 10-point penalty and almost certain relegation from the SPL, while their players will become available for transfer.
However, the SPL expects Gretna to stay in business at least until the end of the season.
The league has stressed that clubs in such positions can apply for loans recoverable from prize money.
League secretary Iain Blair said at the weekend: "What has happened over the last four or five years is clubs have been able to apply to the SPL for a loan during the season on the basis the loan is recovered from fees they'd get later on in the season.
"We very much expect Gretna to fulfil their fixtures and be there at the end of the season.
"I can't foresee, given how close we are to the end of the season, a mechanism which would see Gretna go out of business."

ils avaient vraiment pas le niveau de la SPL, ils ont surjoués l'an dernier ou quoi? la montée aura vraiment tout foutu en l'air.

Gretna edging closer to closure
Gretna have endured a troubled season in the SPL
Gretna might be out of business before the weekend
Gretna's perilous position has worsened as the administrator running the club has admitted that it may be impossible to field a team at the weekend.
However, David Elliot insisted that, while the situation had deteriorated, he has not given up on the club.
Just 10 players have indicated that they are willing to face Aberdeen on Saturday as doubts surface over insurance and future payment.
"As of today, we don't have a team for Saturday," said Elliot.
Media conference: Gretna administrator David Elliot
"I can't insist that the players play if they haven't been paid and I can't pay them on Monday either.
"Failure to play on Saturday would mean we are in breach of league rules and would leave us open to be fined and face other penalties.
"Unfortunately we are running out of time."
Aberdeen have announced that they expect the game to go ahead.
"Following intensive discussions involving the SPL, the administrator and ourselves, we were told that the governing body expects the match to be played, as scheduled, on Saturday at 3pm," said a Dons spokesman.
"While these are clearly difficult times for all concerned, the clear priority for everyone connected with the SPL has been to ensure we do all we possibly can to assist in ensuring Gretna fulfils its fixture commitments."
If Gretna can keep going beyond the weekend they could then pin their hopes on a big pay-day at home to Celtic the following weekend.
Elliot also aims to renegotiate the terms of the ground-sharing agreement with Motherwell and said the Fir Park club had been helpful.
Any additional breathing space would also give more time to attract any potential investors.
The SPL will meet with Elliot on Friday to discuss a possible advance payment of a "six-figure sum" that clubs usually receive at the end of each season from the league's broadcasting and advertising contracts.
"If we receive reassurances from Gretna that they will be able to fulfil their fixtures then the money would be available," said an SPL spokesman.
Earlier, football consultant Paul Davies told BBC Sport he was fronting "a serious bid" for the club.
But Elliot said that, while he was aware of "two or three interested parties", nobody was presently looking at the club's accounts.
To make matters worse at the beleaguered club, their Raydale Park home was the subject of an overnight break-in, with football boots and food stolen.
The Inland Revenue had been pursuing a £350,000 debt.
Two former managers are seeking payments of £800,000 and £100,000, while the club are in arrears with ground-sharing payments to Motherwell.
Gretna are in the hands of administrator David Elliot
Mr Mileson's position has not changed; he is not putting forward funds for the club to continue
David Elliot
While Gretna are not saddled with enormous debts, backer Brooks Mileson has withdrawn his financial support after a bout of illness.
"There is no direct contact between Mr Mileson and myself or anyone else at the club but Mr Mileson's position has not changed; he is not putting forward funds for the club to continue," said Elliot.
"He has put in a very substantial amount of money - I believe it to be around £8m - and the way the club has continued with great success over recent seasons is that each week he has been funding the losses.
"As administrator I am faced with the task of reversing that situation to allow the club to continue."
Gretna have been docked 10 points for going into administration.
The revised points tally for the league's bottom club is just six and relegation is almost certain, with 11th-placed St Mirren 21 points better off.
Gretna reduced their squad in January, selling, loaning out and releasing a number players, while bringing in a host of youngsters on loan from England.
Only eight of the 17 senior players remaining on the books at Gretna have deals that run beyond the end of this season.
But all contracts have been breached by the non-payment of wages and players would be within their rights to seek new clubs right away.
"I can't stand in their way - morally, ethically or legally," said Elliot.
Gretna were admitted to the senior ranks of Scottish football in 2002, taking advantage of the demise of Airdrieonians.
And, with Mileson's backing, the club rapidly rose through the divisions, culminating with last year's promotion to the top flight.
Should Gretna go out of business, there would be no relegation from the SPL, while it is likely that all the points from the games they were involved in would be withdrawn.

Bon benh c'est vraiment sérieux! Heureusement qu'on les joue pas ce week-end sinon le match aurait été reporté!
Si Gretna gagne tous ses matchs & que St Mirren perd tous les siens alors:
11. Gretna 30 pts
12. St Mirren 29 pts
donc Gretna peut encore se maintenir.

donc Gretna peut encore se maintenir.
Et si St Mirren fait un nul et que des défaites, ils risquent d'être relégués aussi, parce qu'il y'aurait des chances que le goal average leur soit défavorable si jamais Gretna gagne tous ses matches
Enfin, plus serieusement, je pense qu'on peut être soulagés du côté de Love Street, d'autant plus que Gretna a un trou noir dans son coffre

RIP à ce club ils vont repartir (au mieux) en Division three (=D4) quatrième & plus bas niveau national écossais.
Stranraer monte en D3 du coup & Airdrie United remonte en D2 directement après une saison en D3.

C'est fini, Gretna ne va pas repartir même en D4.
Catastrophe pour ce club
C'est quand même bête, à vouloir s'envoler trop vite, ils se sont brulé les ailes et ont pas assuré leur stabilité dans le cas d'une défaillance de leur source de fonds, tout celà n'a tenu que sur la santé d'un homme, et si il est malade, ben tout le système s'écroule

je rend hommage a ce club qui m'a fait gagner tant d'argent lorsqu'ils jouaient en 3eme et 2eme division 
Airdrie était descendu si bas? 
oui & ce malgré un beau stade de 10 000 places.
Dommage...va bien y avoir un repreneur...mais si le club va en derniere division
Nan, c'est trop tard maintenant, comme personne ne se représentait pour être repreneur, le club a été purement et simplement liquidé judiciairement
A cette heure-ci, le Gretna Football Club n'existe plus
A cette heure-ci, le Gretna Football Club n'existe plus
Ce que je veux dire, c'est qu'un fan acharné va bien créer un club, du style : Association Gretna FC
Oui peut-être repartir à 0 mais sous un nouveau nom!
Voila...c'est ce qu'il s'est passé au basket, pour le Limoges CSP 
L'ancien boss (propriétaire) de Gretna Brooks Mileson est décédé hier à l'âge de 60 ans.
RIP Brooks!
