That's a bit of a strong word for one fan to use about another. Particularly when the fan in question is an inoffensive little guy who's been following Falkirk for decades. I made a post recently, in response to Shodwall I think, in which I explained the reasons why the likes of FFCTV have to be so tactful when interviewing managers. I'm happy to dig that out and post it again if you want. In the meantime, what exactly has Lewis done to be deserving of the word "coward"?

You really should have a think before you post. Slating Fitzpatrick for posting stuff like that after what he has been through, very poor stuff.

Tony lost his young son to the same illness that killed one of my family members in the same year. After What Tony has been through I don’t think he needs to justify anything he puts out on social media, despite how some people want to interpret the content.

We all know what Tony went through it's something that never leaves you. If that's how Tony deals with it who are you to judge ?

Just a wee throwaway poorly conceived jokey comment. You clearly know him personally so apologies for any offence caused. I'd not want to do that job and if someone is being a cock to a volunteer when they're a relatively well paid employee then it really doesn't paint them in a good light.

On Sportsound Hughes rules himself out of the running. Jobby doesn't. Despite having the chance to bin the idea. Mmmm.

I don't think you can blame the BoD for letting Hartley sign the players he wanted. Hartley is an experienced football player and manager and the BoD rightly assumed him and his scout would be better at evaluating players than them. There would be uproar if the BoD had stopped Hartley from signing the players he wanted.

For you? ... Alcoholic rage, paedo jokes, sectarian innuendo, late night seething mess posts.

Stopped reading after you claimed to have friends.

Let me put my colours on the mast right now incase that wee bit of ITK is right. Leaving all the daft patter aside, i was positive about Hartleys appointment, happy with what he did last season, and behind his project and genuinely excited for this season. Wont deny any of that.... But at this moment I am fucking SHITING MYSELF that we take Kenny Miller. A fucking moron of a man. I will be seething if we appoint him.

This 100%. I genuinely can't believe folk are saying Hartley was wrong to get rid of x, y and z. We were utterly atrocious last season and each and every one of those players deserved to be emptied.

Mallaig has a pitch that might even have better views than Fort William.

Thanks, that's what I expected. It did seem a strange statement - you were almost wondering if there was going to be a follow-up saying they were going to try and fulfil the Scottish Cup tie in a few weeks, or similar. As you say tragic that a club dating back to 1880 - claiming to be the oldest in the Borders indeed - has ended like this. Think they may be oldest SFA members in the Borders, too. Participants in the first-ever rugby 7s... winning the inaugural Border Cup... death of Bob Mercer... nursery of Bobby Johnstone... players capped for Scotland Amateurs... Stirling Albion 20-0 Selkirk... Developed a nice little ground with the pavilion, terrace and stand - granted the floodlights weren't paid for. That's a lot of history, a lot of passion, a lot of people long-dead - and living. R.I.P. Selkirk FC.

I think Jordan McGhee's interview didn't go unnoticed

Giovanni Moscardini played for Italy I think.

Fitzy is one of the nicest, mildly spoken men I've ever met. I'm a firm atheist but if he wants to post this religious stuff on his personal twitter that gives him strength to get through something truly heartbreaking that happened decades ago then he can do it all he likes. It's his faith to express however he pleases. I can't even begin to imagine the agony the guy has gone through and has lived with for all these years yet is still an absolute gent. If his faith gives him strength that he'll be with his lad again someday then who are you to try and take that away from him? Also, hark at the guy yammering on about our former captain, cup winner and legend being a 'loser', possibly posting from his mammy's basement for all we know.

Could folk could stop quoting SuperHans? Plays havoc with the ignore function.

What a cock you are. You do know why he wrote the books and why his twitter handle is what it is? Pathetic.

Tony had no problem getting the players in that Jack Ross wanted, he isn’t the problem. Stubbs and Jackson are the problem.

Exactly this. Many fond years at Ettrick Park as well and so many people in the town affiliated with the club in some way... but somewhere along the road Selkirk FC lost its identity in the town and there should be people involved in the committee over the past few years having a long hard look at themselves. Thinking back to 10 years ago...albeit struggling in the East of Scotland Premier and battling relegation most seasons, a team of Borderers won the Image Printers Cup. You had families down watching, Youths and Vics involved as one big committee and the bar in the club would run on a Sunday with the big screen up attracting plenty of punters. The Lowland League has turned out to be one slow painful death for Selkirk FC. Chased a dream that was never going to happen. Still can't believe that the committee didn't see it coming and put anything in place to stop this. From what I've heard they foolishly followed a chairman who seems to have been involved with the club to try and enhance his own personal business gains. Not sure if any action will be taken legally in regards to that. Anyway it's done now and fingers crossed there will be an amateur side and Youth set up going strong by the end of this season. It's always been a challenge competing with rugby in the town, but they and the cricket club have offered their changing facilities to help out in the current plight. Hopefully the community pulls together and we don't lose football altogether in Selkirk.

Lewis post and Tony Smiths comment which non-facebookers might find interesting.

I feel like Ross in that episode of Friends when he gets drunk and insists he's fine after he finds out about Rachel and Joey

Stunned to discover that a Scottish football forum has a high percentage of users with a generally favourable view of Scottish football.

Done!

Always amazes that someone can watch an interview like that and all they think is “OMG he got the league terminology wrong LOL”.

Mods please.

Good signing if he gets us important goals, shite signing if he doesn't. Think that covers it.

It was a good laugh wasn’t it?

Saw wee Lewis from FFC TVs post on Facebook. If he doesn't like someone he must be an utter p***k, given he's the mildest mannered guy in the world by all accounts.

f**k sake man, not this diddy again.

Joe Lemetti was a right-back for AC Milan in the 1970s.

He was frozen out at Sevco after undermining their manager and quit livi after about a fortnight. I think that's plenty.

Paul Paton is and always would have been the worst possible signing.

More like Greggs Stewart amiright? I'm sad.

There will be an upturn in the next game, even without a new manager. The player will be waking up with a sense of relief this morning. Mon the Bairns.

There's a bad spelling mistake in that letter, 'company which owns and operates the club' has been spelled c-l-u-b

It would be the ultimate f**k you to the support. I'd genuinely laugh if we did it. Cry later obviously, but laugh first.

Serious question(s); is Hartley still the Don? Are all these youngsters from down south still fresh and exciting talent? Are you enjoying all those goals scored/points for being so sexy?

Please someone tell him to search 'idiot' and hit the images option

He’s coming from the league leaders, the laddy will play where he fucking likes...

To be honest Fitzy is part of the problem. He is a club legend and a fans favourite but he spouts some amount of pish in the media. We have not replaced Brian Caldwell and have struggled since his departure.

Fucking rotten patter when opposition fans flood the thread with the usual pish of “take our manager, we’ll even drop him off” etc.

We've got [emoji122] [emoji122] Tortolano We've got.... [emoji122] [emoji122] Tortolano...

Freudian iceberg.
