    It’s breaking my heart watching scum like Haber and Paton playing for the club I love and not giving a f**k.

    That coupled with guys like Dallison, Lewis, Harrison and ToE, who are clearly junior level at best, being given contacts means it’s very, very unlikely we won’t finish bottom this season.

    I am also shocked that Hartley and now Mckinnon have Fasan as their first choice. Nothing against the guy but Stevie Wonder can see he’s not good enough.

    Stevie Wonder would have better reflexes.

    Are we going to be lucky enough for Alloa to continue to be as shit as us until Christmas? We better hope so but that will be 2 get out of jail free cards in 2 years. So I doubt it.

    I think going down may be our only chance of getting rid of this board. Whether the club would survive that is doubtful.

    In a 4-1-3-2, I'll be at least four players off and the formation will be wrong.

    You clearly do not grasp the concept of “love”.

    Fife love. Hard, brutal and sisterly.

    I have heard three unconnected stories wrt Hartley’s attitude towards people in and around the club, and all three stories paint a picture of a thoroughly unpleasant individual. That’s no reflection on his other abilities, but in terms of dealing with other people, he seemed to be “a c**t"

    FTFY.

    Did he get freed the dutch mob or did he just not fancy staying? Seemed to play pretty regularly.

    Think we wanted to come home, surprised there's not been any takers. Must be a right sound guy not to be at St Johnstone though.

    Guys our training just now. McKinnon shaking hands with a few suited guys and a new guy training.

    Black guy about 6ft I’d imagine. Don’t recognise him though.

    Black rhymes with Right Back, so hopefully thats a clue.

    :lol:

    I can exclusively reveal that our new signing is none other than ex-Falkirk stalwart, Jean-Francois Lescinel.

    I'm upset you with you on a deep deep level. Surely he would still be waiting at the airport, if true?

    Would have said piss off at the start of the season however we are where we are now and need experience. He scored 15 goals last season mainly playing as the lone striker. I’d certainly take him now even until January.
     

    Aye, agreed. Anything that helps get points on the board between now and the window opening has to be a good thing.

    Paul Quinn is feckin gash.  Hard as it may seem he's no improvement on the mince we have already.  Cant see Andy driver coming to us unfortunately although you never know.

    You never know, did he not get bombed out a trial at St Johnstone, pre season? Short term deal to January might suit him well enough.

    Parents are generally a bit fuddish when it comes to stuff like this.

    I am not really sure having an academy is really part of supporting a football team tbh. I never worried about academies etc when I was at my happiest as a football fan going to Brockville every other week. I did like that we had a reputation for bringing good young players through, but I am just struggling to get excited about it.

    Regardless of what our status would or could have been, the SFA are up to allsorts of pish with Brave and the business people at the club were forced into a business decision because of it. It just means we are going to have to scout 16 and 17 year olds and try to develop them like loads of other clubs do.

    Fans are dutybound to take an interest in off the field stuff in so far as they should always attempt to oust dodgy fuckers who invariably get invlolved in football clubs, and those who dont have the clubs best interests at heart. It is also my opinion that we should all be driving towards fan ownership.

    But that said, I'm busier than I would like most of the time, so football is primarily about going on the Saturday and talking it to death on here.

    So aye, it was nice that we had an academy, but not at the rising expense of Falkirk FC, who play on a Saturday in the Championship.

    For me anyway.

    We managed without it for decades, and even when we had it, most of the best players that came "through" it were 14 year Olds who'd been booted out other teams youth set up. Which begs the question why we were spending so much in the first place. We now should be keeping an eye for those cast offs and developing them. f**k spending a fortune so we can develop our own guys, when they always turn out to be a Shep or O'Hara.
