Ludo*1 Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Aaah so he was out of contract . Didnt realise that. Mind you still surprised he sent him out on loan anyway . It was a completely half hearted attempt to keep him tbf. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knee jerk reaction Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 anyone going to the stadium tomorrow for the fan ownership of the club meeting? I can't make it due to work but would be interested in what gets said or any options to buy shares. in my opinion this is far better than the bairns for life idea, if Houston hadn't gone then we'd have the situation where guys screaming about how bad Houston's signings were, would then be handing Houston a cheque to buy someone! if this meeting were to lead onto a position where fans takeover the club or don't takeover but have a large shareholding then that should be a good thing for running the club. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HopeStreetWalker Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 With Scotland's elite club academies and centres of excellence now known, and Falkirk not one of them, it is a long overdue reality check on the state of our own academy and youth set up. It was the right idea to go on this strategy of having 2-3 youth players coming through a season. With the hope of the 7-8 million pounds sale to kick the club to the next level. It never happened and sucked up a lot of the clubs money on the way. The bit of class was Scott Arfield and Stephen Kingsley and were sold for peanuts compared to what they are worth now. The decade in the lower division and no prospect of promotion is the result.. The time has come to scrap the set up and start from scratch. Scouting , coaching and the end product does not compare what clubs of our size have produced in the same decade. The club could have spent that money on 2-3 quality players per season that could have brought the young players on far better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had it not been for the money the Academy players brought in since relegation (c£3m) you would not have a club. I would be looking somewhere else for the saving the current 70-80k the Academy costs. Superfan could take a rain check on his 72k rising to 90k next season for his rental of the SS to star with. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bejazz1 Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 I was travelling along the M9 today and my car was passed by a Merc convertible and it looked suspiciously like Hartley was in the passenger seat, I may be wrong...i do hope so, this guy looked like he had a minder with him and he looked like a dodgy drug baron/gangster/hitman straight of the plane from Columbia. If it was him, I thought it looked really dodgy as f**k [emoji36]The message is don't mess with him or you make wake up beside a horses head in you bed, oh ya Fucker! [emoji95]Maybe he's gonna clear the players out one by one 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes the period where cyclops faither was in charge has puit us back a wee bit and we lost quite a few players but we were never going to get elite status whilst we are a championship club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
