Dunfermline Athletic players told they are to receive only partial wage payment

Dunfermline’s majority shareholder, Gavin Masterton, has assured the club’s players and coaching staff they will receive 25% of their November wages within the next couple of days.

He could not tell them when the rest of their pay will be in their bank accounts, however.

Courier Sport understands Masterton got a much frostier reception from senior pros in the dressing room than when he last addressed the players more than a week ago.

There was a long delay in October’s wages being paid in full, but they had been led to believe that November’s might be more or less on time.

The Pars’ next home game is not until December 15.
