When he’s talking to talksport while sat in one of our offices I’d say so. Was no surprise to see Miller join when Rennie was appointed but if rennie was to stay I’d want miller to leave unless his media work was to be curtailed but not ended all together. He likely had this media work sorted pre joining us and was perhaps part of his negation to join so we appointed him knowing this likely. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I couldn’t care less what team players or managers support- in reality they are here doing a job. Aware that the majority of football players/coaches etc in Scotland will support either side of the OF but most keep it to themselves. Maybe if he was doing a better job I wouldn’t be as arsed but he’s not so he can f**k off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players will support all kinds of teams, that's not the issue though. If Holt had referred to Killie as "we" during his time with us, I doubt you would be as forgiving. 3 minutes ago, latapythelegend said: Is it interfering with his day to day job? You've already pointed out how fucking rancid we are, so I'd suggest yes? I suppose it's what kind of commitment you want from someone to turn it around. I'd rather he was devoting the majority of his time trying to fix Falkirk, the team he is employed by and paid by. Rather than taking a cheque to talk about how Rangers have defensively set up, maybe question why his own team are getting bodied 3-0 at home off of Montrose and 4-1 off of Airdrie. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bejazz1 Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 Why didn't we hound Dowds for calling Arbroath "We" directly to Falkirk TV? Is it because it wasn't one of the OF? I hate Rangers as much as the next man but this is the level of pettiness most regular diddy club fans would ridicule OF fans for.The trouble is he played for Celtic too and many other teams. When he uses the word ‘we’ who is he referring to?[emoji23] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im a Falkirk fan through and through but I still enjoy supporting Rangers and Celtic when they’re playing in Europe. Can’t see the problem? It must just be me but I actually support the opposition against Rangers and Celtic when they play in Europe. I don’t recognise either as representatives of Scotland, both would leave our leagues if they had the slightest sniff of an opportunity to do so and neither set of fans particularly identify with anything Scottish. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s the impact it has financially that creates an even greater gulf between “them” and the rest of Scottish fitba. Don’t worry - most fans outside the bigot brothers support the opposition. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was taken from a Scotsman article back in June 2019: 'Yet, data revealed by the digital manager of the SFA shows that Rangers have the biggest percentage of fans among Scotland Supporter Club members. They are followed by four of the other 'big five' - if you will. Aberdeen, Celtic, Hearts and Hibs, in that order.' 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He isn't employed by Falkirk 24/7 and is entitled to have other interests away from work. That is literally what the majority of our board do FFS. He could work part time in tesco on a Tbursday night for all I care. That isn't impacting how poor we are is it? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you are missing the point. Nobody is asking him to work for us 24/7 but its seems to be another example of someone taking the piss. Not travelling with the team to an away game cos he’s on the radio talking about Rangers? Sitting in our stadium at 9:45am on a Monday talking about Rangers? We’re not talking about a random Thursday night here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miller has made more than share of money in football, why would he hang about at a failing League 1 club if he want fully committed to being here? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blame Me Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 Watson injured for 9 months. Another space to fill and Mills probably won't be seen again this season. Saturday is going to be horrific. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chinatoon Bairn Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 (edited) 32 by the time he returns to match fitness. Signed an 18 month contract with us in January and with his rumoured 1k p/w hopefully the majority of that is paid in appearance fees.
