Falkirk fans - "USING LEAGUE POSITION IN AN UNFINISHED TO DECIDE TEAMS FATES IS IMMORAL! LETS BOYCOTT EVERYONE"

Also Falkirk fans - "LETS USE LEAGUE POSITION IN AN UNFINISHED SEASON TO PROMOTE US THROUGH A RECONSTRUCTION NOBODY WANTS!!!"

And you wonder why folk are bemused.

From the man who said 'Hearts will not take it to court if they lose, it's nothing more than a scare tactic to try and bully the meek hearted/gullible into what they want.'

“That’s where our focus must now lie, beginning with a demand for a start date for the new season from the SPFL. We cannot be stopped from playing and clubs in our league have indicated they are able to play. League One MUST start in a similar timescale to the Championship. The SPFL has no reason to further harm our club by delaying the announcement of our fixtures when announcing other leagues.“

Taken from Patrick’s statement. They seem to think all teams can play in our league from October.

That’s not what’s said though. It says “clubs in our league” which could be two or could be ten.

The boycotting of away games will somehow go worse than the proposed boycott of home games this season.


It is embarrassing. We are not still in league one because of the Chairmen of Forfar or Peterhead

He's a St Johnstone fan and we know that ALL St Johnstone fans shag sheep, ride tractors and have mad cow disease.


And vote Tory which is probably the worst than any of the above

They are spot on. If there are 10 teams between league 1&2 able to start in October then they should be in one league. The rest can go f**k themselves

Budge is now only doing the best for her club while we roll over as usual.

Where we deserved to be where we were at the start of the season, we should be exploring every opportunity for us and thinking only for us now.

We never learn.

Board statement

Correct.

We pissed about with that goon Mark Campbell for months wasting time and effort and look where we are now. In amongst the dregs still and no idea when we will kick a ball again.

Hollow and uninspiring words IMO

I don’t really know what else the club can say at this point.

Focus all energies on pushing for clarity on next season as soon as possible and get the house in order to get the job done on the pitch.

We blew it last season. I’m actually quite relieved at the tone adopted here. I was worried it would be another tear stained tantrum like last time.

What clubs in our league can afford to sign up a squad for a short season on nothing more than a hope that crowds will be allowed back in October. 

Think if contracts are offered to players there will be get out clauses should the worst happen.

The football association have got to come up with a support package should the worst happen and its closed door games. If they don't do that then some clubs might not think the gamble is worth it.

Worrying times !

The bit that gets me is in the last few years we seem to have endless supplies of money to bring in managers, sign as many players as we want, pay them all off, sack the manager and repeat.

Even now as we face a 2nd season in the pits and the prospect of playing in empty stadiums, money seems to be no object.

How come in the years we were challenging for promotion all we heard was excuses about budgets? Where was the money then?

Its quite clear we were happy to stand still. “If you stand still, you go backwards...”

Hollow and uninspiring words, what the hell do you expect ? If you’ve listened to his interviews since taking chair, Deans has   conducted himself impeccably compared  to the previous lot over the past ten years. Yes there’s been howler after howler, over the last three seasons but since his appointment don’t think he’s done much wrong. Can I ask what he should of said in your opinion?

I wouldn't criticize Deans for what he has said here but there is still a whiff of  a "let us in the Championship coz we are a big club and can play" attitude when he says the SPFL must find "a format" for us to play in October. Don't beat about the bush Gary , tell us the format. 

Thistle's statement was much more clear & concise - we are in League One let's get it done.

So if the rest of the clubs in our division can’t afford to play until January, are we just going to play Partick Thistle every week for the first half of the season?

I’m amazed no one’s mentioned 12-12-10-10 yet. That would seem to be a pretty obvious proposal that would get all the full time clubs into the top 2 leagues and make a 33 game championship possible.

Surprised Head Of Reconstruction Proposals Anne Budge did not put this forward...…..for the good of the game that' she's so worried about

Pretty disappointed by how many of our fans are giving it the ol' THEY NEED US MORE THAN WE NEED THEM language re: travelling supports / gate receipts.

That's no different to the same arrogant, selfish, billy-big-baws language Sevco fans were using when they died,
