Not a chance. Absurd idea anyway. Big attitude problem, disruptive figure, not exactly renowned for a teamwork ethic, couldn't stir himself at Dundee, so where's his incentive to drop to the depths of L1?

Yup totally agree - don't understand the sympathy for Sheerin at all. He's one of a staggering number of serious handicaps we've been lumbered with, and I can't think of a single redeeming feature of his time here. Not one... On the other hand; his "tactics" (such as they were), his decision-making, team selection, substitutions, motivation, signings, captaincy blind spot, favouritism blind spot, pig-headedness, inability to respond to in-game conditions, interviews, defeatist demeanour... all utterly abysmal. Sympathy?? Really?

Ballantyne FC Vs The Bairns
Bluegrass Bairn replied to FFC 1876's topic in Scottish League 1 General Chatter
We get that your fishing, but tbh its pretty remarkable that the support has held up at 4k over the last few seasons, given the utter nonsense we've had to watch. When we fall apart again this season, which we will, next season's attendance will surely plummet. -
Ballantyne FC Vs The Bairns
Bluegrass Bairn replied to FFC 1876's topic in Scottish League 1 General Chatter
Yeah, he did rather; but to be fair to him, 1) Sheerin plays him in front of the back 4 which is nonsensical, and 2) he wasn't very good but I did think he was trying to find support but all around him were standing still instead of getting into space to give him an option. -
Ballantyne FC Vs The Bairns
Bluegrass Bairn replied to FFC 1876's topic in Scottish League 1 General Chatter
Yup. Montrose played quick, crisp passes across both sides of the pitch, into space, for their guys to run on to. Cut us open countless times. We play pedestrian, half-paced square balls across the back then hit an obvious, rushed pass (too hard) to a man with his back to goal and a defender (or two) behind him. Its utterly embarrassing nonsense. Get out Sheerin, this is beyond the pale. Everyone can see - especially opposition managers - you are woefully inept. . -
Ballantyne FC Vs The Bairns

Utterly abysmal. The most amazing thing about every utter dung performance we turn in, we somehow manage to be even worse the next time. Dunno how they manage it. Some folks keep saying "surely we can't get any worse"... clearly, we can. Sheerin is drowning, and taking the team down with him. Shambolic amateurism all round. -

Fine. Utter waste of time, can only hope he's gone for good. Would rather have Ted Nugent, in all honesty. -
Hauf a board FFC V Alloa
Bluegrass Bairn replied to ShaggerG's topic in Scottish League 1 General Chatter
Until Morrison & Keena came on, we created the square root of f.a. Until then it was sideways passing at snails pace, as usual. The only time the ball went forwards was to someone with their back to goal and an Alloa player at his back. Its utterly embarrassing amateur nonsense from Sheerin. And that nonsense at the end just sums us up. Other than the unexpected welcome return of Morrison, the only other incident of note was Nesbitt going absolutely mental at Hetherington for fecking up - again - in the run up to the alloa stramash & shot off the line. -
Walking Down The Halbeath Road
Bluegrass Bairn replied to Parscelona's topic in Scottish Championship General Chatter
Maybe the Falkirk fans should play the stormy February weather, then we'll see who's really responsible for their team being sh@t. Presumably this would need to be a H & A double-header, can't have the stormy weather getting an unfair advantage. -
Goodwillie v fans fault Falkirk
Bluegrass Bairn replied to ebobsboy's topic in Scottish League 1 General Chatter
Our um, eh, chairman Gary um, eh, Deans made a statement - or was it a question? - after the Covid/Raith decision that um, eh, we'd be having um, eh, something of an um, eh, siege mentality going forward. Like anything and everything else he said since, that was all hot air and baloney. "Seige mentality" implies a whole heap of characteristics we don't possess, on or off the park. Since then, we've plumbed new depths of point-and-laugh ineptitude...not only are we not going forward, we're not even going backward. Just downward. 3-0 to Falkirk is about as likely as an um, eh, apology from Deans. 1-0 Clyde. -
Wide right in The Forth for me. He's utter nonsense.

Have decided my t-shirt will read "Here's a STATEMENT for you..." with "Off you f**k" on the back

Peterhead v Falkirk
Bluegrass Bairn replied to Blootoon87's topic in Scottish League 1 General Chatter
Davie Nicholls could quite comfortably play on Saturday, and moreover would rule the midfield, against our feather-light piss-poor waste-of-space "captain". Expect open-mouthed amazement from Peterhead fans on Saturday when they see how easily they win this game 2-0. -

Walking Down The Halbeath Road
Bluegrass Bairn replied to Parscelona's topic in Scottish Championship General Chatter
I have to say this has been a rich seam of genius work, but this is magnificent, HSFiM. -
I also remember that game. We looked like total amateurs (wow...How little has changed). Falkirk ran out wearing Raith's white kit, and big Stuart Burgess had covered over the Raith crest on his top with sticking plaster. Top Boy.

According to Alex Ferguson - in discussion about Ronaldo only coming on as a late sub last Saturday - "you should always start your best players". Well, he ought to know. So; Sheerin (that's "Sheerin", not "Paul"), PLAY KEENA!

Walking Down The Halbeath Road
Bluegrass Bairn replied to Parscelona's topic in Scottish Championship General Chatter
We're in no position to point and laugh at anyone. Our downward spiral has become a tailspin. -
Well, if that's the case, and sad to say I sense you're absolutely right, then he needs hounded out. Irrespective of the bigger issues around the cancer that is Holt, and the incompetence and mismanagement of Deans, if the manager can't - or won't - pick his best players, out of spite, bloody-mindedness, or downright stupidity, then it's time to get himself right off to fcuk.

The East Fife Thread
Bluegrass Bairn replied to King Kebab's topic in Scottish League 2 General Chatter
You were very unlucky not to get a point today. Played with width, won the midfield battles, one off the line twice in that first half stramash, and the shot at the end that hit the post could easily have gone in. EF not the worst team I 've seen this season (that would be us at Alloa). -
Agree with the first bit; second bit is more concerning as Sheerin didn't just get it wrong first half - he's been getting it wrong for weeks. Big, big test coming up - he now has to admit he's got it wrong, & change the team and the set -up.
-
By the time I walked round past the front doors, even Auld Jean was shaking her head, saying -"why does he no' play Keena from the start?".
-
Sheerin was beckoned over by a group at the front of SS & he went across. Couldn't tell what he said in reply but he was told in no uncertain terms to fecking play Kenna in a 2 up front. He is close to Yogi levels of stubborn-ness, between his decisions on Keena, 2up front, Krasniqi & Hetherington. The worry is he'll revert to the usual pish set-up to show the fans he's "boss" Today was utter dross, forget the score; and if he refuses to see it - and change his attitude pronto - then he'd best just get out now.
