Was happy with the squad he built - it is more than good enough to win this league, but it isn't happening. Time to go. We can't afford to gamble promotion this season. Agree ! but worryingly who would want to come to Falkirk in the situation we find ourselves. the only option is to stick with McKinnon until the ownership drama is settled. Nobody of any quality will come near us until that is done. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But my angle of interest is, if you guys are going to be our biggest competition then maybe not all is lost. Sammon, McManus, Tidser and Gomis would have improved our performance no doubt, perhaps not the outcome but definitely better performances than they people who were given a chance today. Don't dispute your assessment either...but don't discount Forfar or, especially, East Fife. EF look very strong this year, and have some depth to weather injuries.

wullie robb Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 Thankfully I went to the Stennie v TNS game entertaining stuff and some decent passing football on show for a change. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd just tell him to stay away from the club for a few weeks and get someone else to take the team on a temp basis till the takeover is complete or doesn't happen. It's obvious the players cant stand his tactics and philosophy and have downed tools. Surely someone else couldn't do any worse and you never know they may even manage to get the players playing. Let's face it we are getting nothing as long as this fuckwit continues in charge. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JulioBairn Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 Ok so maybe MC did bump some poor old dear out her change during his taxi driving days but if he comes in and empties McKinnon then I’m all for him. This is awful 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 For Seaside 1, the players we have are good enough. The manager we have is not. That is really all there is to it. If McKinnon has friends in the media, he is going to need them. It should be clear to everyone now that he is a dud. The owners need to make their move pretty damned quickly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're competent you should win the league. Agree we should be a gig somebody would want - but it comes down to how the club is seen at the moment. New owner then maybe their own idea on who they want as a manager. That plants enough doubt to put people off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AL-FFC Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 Just put the job out there and give it it someone, anyone other than the usual suspects that get touted when a manager job comes up there has to be better out there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawson Park Boy Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 He just never seems to learn from his mistakes. Its just the same old, same old , week after week. I would make the Forfar game his last chance as I would guess they’re fairly similar to Montrose who we JUST managed to beat. This cannot go on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bridge of allan bairn Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 if McKinnon does go he's cost us a fortune. taken us down, compensation, wages, and also lower crowds due to relegation and turgid football. add Hartley into the mix and we really have wasted so much money on terminating employing managers and swapping playing staff every 6 months. what an inefficient way to run a club.recruit someone, anyone who's mantra is to play attacking entertaining football. what I'd give for an Ian McCall right now... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
