It is not difficult to imagine him saying that he wanted all of the MSG shares or none at all. At least it looks as if something is happening at long last. I certainly hope MC is sent on his way. It is better having a shite team than no team at all. Maybe they have finally seen the light. If this does go tits up then the MSG have some major bridge building to do, and they'll also have to explain why they knocked back 3 more credible offers initially. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 I doubt very much if they will feel obliged to explain anything at all. They will see it as their property to do with as they see fit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't even make a Fifer cross a bridge built by this lot (or MC for that matter) tbh 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JulioBairn Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 We have people saying an announcement is imminent and others saying there is no end in sight...does anyone actually know anything or is everyone just speculating? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WestfieldBairn Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Apparently full board will leave according to those who met him last night and McKinnon will be a “head coach” rather than a manager, whatever the difference is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think this just means someone else I.e. John Park would be responsible for recruitment. Any time frame given? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard recently that a conclusion was very close and was given a timescale for when it would either happen - or fall to bits. The approximate "D-day" I was given has recently passed. May be a load of nonsense of course. Particularly as the source was a random old guy in a pub, who claimed he knew because his son's girlfriend was pals with the daughter of the guy who was doing due diligence. Or had previously slept with him. Or took his dogs for a walk. I can't quite remember as I was a bit drunk at the time. Anyway, if these rumours were cropping up a fortnight or a month ago I'd have ignored them, but the timing seems about right. I've been wondering for the last few days if an announcement was imminent. I guess we'll find out shortly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any time frame given?Apparently said that everything is done and the board are now holding off he thinks they are waiting until the AGM at the start of the December.Says the hotel will be built and will be nothing to do with the club. Season tickets will become memberships where we’ll get discounts off things in the club shop like tops etc If he doesn’t take over and we don’t win the league this year we’ll have to go part time next year.Don’t shoot the messenger, wasn’t there just spoke to someone who was. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

falkirkthebigclub Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Don't think this guy has released any information which hasn't created factions/caused division within our support. Toxic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baggio Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Popping in with my spurious gossip that involves Alan Gow waiting to swoop in in January when (not if) this all falls through. Another of his former clubs had asked if he was interested in getting involved with them. Also, from the same source (ha ha) Mckinnon's team talks every week are apparently summed up as you're better, get paid more so should win. No tactics or game plan. This comes as no surprise and the idea of him as head coach is laughable.All just hearsay but what are we here for if not to analyse every rumour and bit of gossip when we get nothing from our own club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 I think the club is being kept in a medically induced coma until Christmas has come and gone. Can you imagine a new owner coming in and putting some real expectations on McKinnon’s shoulders? The man will dissolve into a pool of magnolia vinyl matt emulsion. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
