Having not been promoted is just one aspect of the story of how shocking Falkirk have been. The stats quoted showed just how far away we are from promotion and painted a deeper picture of the fundamental flaws at the club. Also showed that Sheerins win rate was worse than the two/3 previous encumbents. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Back Post Misses Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 At some point this club has to heal the wounds and come back together if it wants to be successful. (and I think most of us want that) At the moment that looks a fair bit off but it has to happen at some point. I said it on Wednesday that this is sad to watch. The last two days ain’t been any easier. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This won't go into details is not on. Edited October 22, 2021 by Shadwell Dog 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeordieBairn Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 Danny Grainger looking a broken man in that interview. Were on for a hiding tomorrow barring a miracle. Embarrassing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had hoped he might be in interim charge by now, but by the same token if I were him if the chance to get a gig back down south came up I'd grab it with both hands. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was talking about being 2-0 down at the time and conceding the second with only about 15 minutes left. It's a phrase that's used by loads of managers under similar circumstances. It's a bit like some of the posters that are slagging the board, no point in looking for faults when they're providing loads by themselves. I don't think it's unfair at all. The taking a narrow defeat was clearly tongue in cheek but Sheerin's expectations of what is acceptable both in terms of results and performances are miles away from the fans. I genuinely believe he'd be happy taking a point from Peterhead. One of the reasons he needs to go, and go now.

Proudtobeabairn Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 Not sure I've seen this talked about yet. Interesting comments from Nesbitt - he sounds far closer to captain material than Hetherington (or anyone else for that matter). https://www.nottheoldfirm.com/interview/falkirk-star-desperate-to-turn-things-around-after-hostile-atmosphere/ 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who would want it with the revolving door manager and player hire and fire reputation we have. Yogi ? comes to mind but he would be a marmite like or hate recruitment. -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not in a Falkirk shirt anyway. Nesbitt, Dixon, even Mutch and Telfer have more about them. Hetherington is part passenger part liability. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hetherington has spent the last few years in a side trying to stay in a league I can only presume that suits him far more than playing a side trying to win a league as so far he's looked like a nothing player. Can't tackle, no pace, no aggression, gives the ball away constantly, slows everything down and is constantly getting outrun by opposition midfielders. He should stick to starring in silent movies and forget football. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They fight harder, tackle better, run further. It pisses me off that successive Falkirk managers have had us playing like shitebags tbh. The best teams are and will outscrap when needed. If Hetherington as a full time player cant bully players in this league, I have no idea how the f**k he managed to make his mark a league above. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
