Probably due to them signing Wighton and him maybe being seen as not needed. Sure Ohara and Wighton were the preferred front two towards the end of the season with Mcmanus on the bench. Mcmanus will be on a very decent wage given he signed a 3 year deal with them last summer so there could be some truth in the rumour if they don't fancy him as a starter. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair Ruari Paton looks to be a similar player in that he looks like a live wire who can create as well as find the net. Giving centre backs a horrid time as oppose to Keena who seems to be the poacher type with no other attributes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ontovictory Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 7 hours ago, Zbairn said: We got royally screwed on that as well. I believe the South Stand only cost around £1.25 million, but then again that was probably a private enterprise working on the building rather than the council, so nothing surprises me. If I remember correctly, we only owned around 2/7 to 3/7ths of the Brockville site that got sold to Morrisons, with the Council owning the other portion. 5/7ths 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Dufresne Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 Callum Ferrie has been released by Dundee i think he would be a good addition to challange Mutch 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocco Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 McManus signed a two year deal last summer. Maybe on high wages though? Might explain why they want him offloaded. Get the chequebook out Falkirk By no means do I think we’ll get him, but they signed Wighton, who is now their main striker and the fans believe that O’Hara looks the better prospect of the two. Now considering he will be on high wages and Grant has worked with O’Hara before, there is a possibility they’d look to offload him to put the wages towards another position 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NavyBlueArmy1876 Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 I'd always assumed we owned the stadium part of Brockville and the Council owned the training pitch (where the store was actually built). So 5/7th sounds about right to me. In terms of TFS, I thought we owned the 'footballing' parts ie seats facing the pitch, concourses, hospitality boxes, pitch, changing rooms etc and they retained ownership of non footballing aspects eg all of the office space etc. That could be completely wrong of course. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NavyBlueArmy1876 Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 McManus would certainly signal our intentions. And unlike last summer's hype signing in Alston, we'd know exactly what we are getting 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
