£41,000

Not what the campaign has raised but that is what Stirling Albion need to pay to Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs and it needes to be payed ASAP or HMRC will sink the Binos, they have already launched their torpeado this week at Stirling Sherrif Court when they applied for an order to put the club into admisistration over unpaid National Insurance and Tax.

A spokesperson for Stirling Albion owner Peter MacKenzie said that it was an "oversight" and that it will be resolved soon. How can a £41,000 tax bill be an oversight?

Buy Stirling Albion campaigner Paul Goodwin said that

"This news reinforces how serious the situation at Stirling Albion is.

"It's hand-to-mouth at the club. This is a strange situation for us because if the club went into administration we could bid to take it out of administration but we have to wait and see what happens."

I hope that over the next week this situation is resolved and doesn't end with Stirling Albion Football Club vanishing from Scottish Football.

I also hope that this doesn't put people off investing in the Buy Stirling Albion Campaign as if Stirling Albion were to go into administration I am sure the campaign organisers would do everything in their powers to pull the club out of administration.
