Dundee FC await their fate after Jackson appears before SFL board
ByNews reporter
Kris Miller, Courier, 15/10/10, News. Picture today at Dens Park, Dundee. Dundee go into administration. Pic shows Bryan Jackson reading a statement to press.
Dundee will discover on Monday what sanctions the SFL are to impose upon them for going into administration.
Administrator Bryan Jackson spent 75 minutes in front of the SFL board on Thursday outlining his view of the club’s finances and how they got themselves into the mess they are in.
The board will reconvene on Monday morning to first determine which is a formality whether the Dark Blues have breached their rules and then settle on an appropriate penalty.
The likeliest outcome is the imposition of a points deduction.
Dundee would have the right to appeal any punishment to the SFA.
Dunfermline’s director of football Jim Leishman, who represents the First Division on the SFL board, has disqualified himself from sitting in judgment in this matter on the grounds he could be perceived to have a conflict of interest.
