He never left as a hate figure, no one ever slated him or wanted him out the door. He just literally never got the chance. Message these to “Sugar” Ray McKinnon instead, plz.x Some of your fellow Falkirk supporters were telling us how shite the Championship is going by the fact that Todorov is scoring fairly regularly. So I feel it’s important to remind you all when he does. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Used to try to stop away players celebrating in front of the Falkirk fans after scoring which was a regular occurrence that season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FFC 1876 Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 I'm more interested in the fact Hughes got outdone by Neil Mccann to be perfectly honest. Even funnier that Sean Welsh still plays for a full time club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly this, probably would be hard pushed to find a set of fans with the exception of possibly Brechin who have had to put up with as much shite from their team/club in the past 3/4 seasons. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadwell Dog Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 Todorov with his 3 league goals this season would fit right in with the dross we have up front . I think our top striker has 2. It's a wonder Bulgaria haven't called him up yet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knee jerk reaction Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 Isn't the "hartley never seen any of the players he signed" just an urban myth that doesn't become true if repeated often enough. Pretty sure bainsford bairn said he had seen most of the players pre signing. If everything is the boards fault and you offered me the same again since they've be in charge over the next 20 years, cup finals with a chance to win last game, some years in top flight and 1 season in 3rd flight (no pandemic to make it 2!) I'd take it 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrDust Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 (edited) 15 hours ago, Hank von Hell said: Yes he was a c#nt, I'm not disputing that. What I am saying is the Busted Brentford Model wasn't his idea. There's a big difference between using a scout for the odd player and taking a full team of his players off him. And as I have said he hasn't done it before or since. Of course he is going to TOE (pun intended) the party line at the fans meetings in the pub, you know what a megalomaniac Campbell was. It was well mentioned at the time Hartley never travelled to see these players in the flesh, I'm sure he said as much in an interview - he wasn't going to be spending a lot of time travelling to see players. If you think about it when we are signing 8 or 9 players from England it means we are looking at probably 3 times that and it makes no sense for Hartley to go see them all or even just the 9 - he would be constantly down there (the days of Jeffries sleeping in his car are well gone). Hartley okayed these signings based on Superscout/agent and the YouTube clips which can make Aaron Muirhead look like Messi. What exactly is the Brentford model ? Campbell didn't give Hartley a script to read at those fans meetings, Hartley indeed gave us the first Mark Campbell performance in talking fairy tale shite, giving us a lowdown on how good these players he hadn't seen were A manager generally lives or dies on his signings, no pro manager would sign players like he done with us. The signings in December worked so he must've thought it's that easy, similar pattern was at Dundee albeit not as vast in numbers. Although the board take a portion of blame, the manager is to blame for signings he made, that's where the buck always fall for the product on the pitch Edited April 3, 2021 by MrDust 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senator Frimpton Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 The buck stops at the top though, or ought to at least. The fact our current major shareholders have dodged this principal goes a long way to explaining our current situation. Presumably noone forced Craig Campbell to employ Hartley and 'Mitch', bin the academy and adopt the Brentford model, then execute said plans so ineptly that they were met with immediate failure. They did employ him though. Martin Ritchie and Sandy Alexander don't appear to hold themselves to account, so why be surprised when they don't demand the same of their employees? The buck absolutely stops with them. Our new club culture of mediocre ineptitude will last as long as those two are involved, I dare say 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

falkirkthebigclub Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 Montrose due to play Partick on 17th April, the same day as Scottish Cup R4. Looks like Thistle will need to play them on Thurs 15th and Clyde on Tues 13th. Not good for Partick. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WestfieldBairn Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 Clyde have like 7 games in 15 days. Taking Covid to one side, surely the chances are high they’ll have injuries galore. Literally pushing the body to it’s limits. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
