The financial dilemmas of Scottish football

Share/Save

We have written quite a lot over the last few weeks about the financial dilemmas facing Scottish football clubs.   This article by a Scottish football fan makes an interesting comparison between Kilmarnock and Plymouth Argyle.   It also points out that Scottish players are usually available on free transfers and can double or treble their wages by moving south of the border.


The analysis is thoughtful and pinpoints some of the dilemmas.  As always, solutions are harder to identify.
