Newbornbairn Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Ridiculous and embarrassing. The absolute minimum to be expected from the chairman is professionalism and to show courtesy towards customers. They don't even show us the respect any business would show customers - we're "fans", which they believe means "muppets who can be milked and insulted at will". Didn't particularly have a problem with Deans before but, when everyone else in the non-playing side has been changed and things are still terrible, maybe he's the problem? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilly Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Gary Holt comes across as an even bigger w****r than I thought was possible. Constantly sniggering at the table in between questions next to a bumbling mess in Sheerin. Rawlins was the only guy who really came out of that as competent which must give Falkirk fans hope but in general what an absolute state of a football club from top to bottom. Hard to see them getting promoted anytime soon when you see who is running the footballing and non footballing operations. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He won’t be very competent if the rest of this shower stay at the club much longer. If he has any sense plans would have started at 10pm on Tuesday to empty the lot! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colburn summed that up at the start. Our job is to pony up cash, turn up and mildly applaud the chaps efforts if they are unlucky enough to be 3-0 down after 20 minutes having passed the ball sideways 3 yards a time until losing it, in a Harry Enfield Charles Charlie Charles fashion.

That's borne out of course by signing Jaime Wilson, Ruth, Ompreon, Hetherington, Ross, McKay etcetera A 'Who's He?' of Scottish football. 'Wuv goat a fitba man in charge noo'. Aye but it's Gary Fucking Holt. He hasn't been mentioned too much but Colin McFarlane came across woefully too. Clueless. No idea why he's at the club. Tbh the owner of a corner shop would know that a fundamental rule of business is that you don’t go out of your way to publicly insult your customers. You’d have thought our PR consultant on the board would have realised similar. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you remember the PR guys response to the poster on here who emailed the club about the last Q and A. That was an embarrassing response. If PR is his job then he’s not very good at it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tea and Busquets Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Another episode that has made us the laughing stock between other supporters, and quite rightly so. Just wish you could paint a red neck on these idiots. Fat chance when you can’t even blowtorch one on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It depends who these other teams are trying to sign. If Falkirk are trying to sign players released from the Premiership and missing out on them all, the shite you end up with may be the only players left by that point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We sign shit because a) We're not paying enough for quality in the right areas and b) Holt and Sheerin are useless clowns as were their predecessors. I have no faith in Holt or Sheerin. What i'm saying is I expected point A to be true but unless nobody asked the right questions it looks like we have the biggest budget by far in the league. The fact we have crap players is down to Holt and the manager rather than resources made available unless you have some facts that didn't come to light at the Q&A? on paper Holt should be a good appointment but we've ended up with a whole load of brittle wasters. the board have made what appear to be reasonable decisions many have been asking for but the results have been shocking. It's not like they have acted in bad faith or not invested like a Mike Ashley. the players are just shite and the people they've invested to get it right are turning out to be shite as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need 11 players that can get us out of this league. Full time or part time I don't frankly care but there is no reason with the biggest budget in this league that we shouldn't be able to put the best side in the league out on the park. We can worry about the league above when we actually get there which will be never if we don't recruit players better suited to winning league one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who appointed Holt and sheerin FFS and appear happy to stick their heads in the sand as we drop further and further down the league?

Absolute nonsense. I don't recall anyone on here, or remember seeing any Falkirk fan on twitter or anywhere else happy with the appointment of Gary Holt. He is an utter charlatan and he's not a good appointment on paper or anywhere lese. I honestly wasn't going to engage with you as your obviously a patsy for the board, but there's no way you can say Gary Holt was a good appointment. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decent appointments? A guy with zero experience in a dof role and a manager that's been coaching kids for the last 7 years a la Eddie may. Not sure what makes them decent appointments. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
