I think I mind fadgy. Davie had a wee whippet pooch that was a wee star too. Our player of the year nights for The Tav FFC Supporters were fantastic nights. I played football with Jimmy’s laddie. Jimmy was a great man and is sadly missed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yip, he was a lovely guy. I could be wrong but I’m sure Jimmy’s last game was the 1997 cup final, he just got scunnered with it and chucked going to games.

Guest Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 4 hours ago, Caractacus Potts said: Exactly this. We’re supposed to have a club that is run by fans for the fans. Too often have boards in the past tried to shout down criticism. I don’t see any indication the new board are like this however it’s not a good look if people close to them are shouting down any fair criticism on here. The club tweeted today that they have made the club shop hours consistent each week due to fans comments. That’s a good sign that they are listening. It’s also a completely sensible critique from those that suggested it. Making the fixture list available and hopefully fixing it to be accurate is another good suggestion. It’s little things and possibly trivial but if it means people don’t turn up to a closed shop when the hours have changed for a particular day or that some fans can easily check when our next home game is, then it’s a step in the right direction to having a more effectively run club. I suppose that is a dig at me. At no time have I said people are not entitled to their opinion, but that works two ways, and I am entitled to mine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PedroMoutinho Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 Personally I don’t have an issue with gambling sponsorship-it’s a perfectly legitimate business and even better if the owner is a Falkirk fan. It’s a win-win for both parties imo. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I read, we have only given him a one year deal and then immediately farmed him out to Bo'ness. Doesn't make sense to me. It’s a funny one for me unless it’s genuinely costing nothing. May be an unpopular opinion but I certainly wouldn’t have prioritised our limited resources in bringing in youth players this season when the first 11 requires so much investment. To me we just can’t afford to be bringing in players who Mcglynn has admitted will not start games when we have so many who should be in that position as it is. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavyBlueArmy1876 Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 Dunfermline have sold 300 STs in the last week to move ahead of us. Hopefully our numbers get a late boost as well, especially as it could be the difference between getting one more player in or not 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where is the logic in that ?I'm guessing that Mcglynn maybe sees something in the Laddie, he's training with us during week, so Mcglynn thinks he can work with him in training and be an option for next season, can't imagine he will be on much, probably peanuts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they're unsure if he'll develop as they would like and will either offer him a new deal if he does and won't if he doesn't?

ebobsboy Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 More pressing issue is we have our first league game on Saturday and as it stands we have Oliver, Wilson and Alegria as our striking options and zero creativity behind them. Hopefully an incoming signing or two before then. Lewis has said we have a squad of 25 or so players on FB, yet looking at it your still struggling to field a really strong side. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairnardo Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 Missed the last week or so. What's Alegria like?Surely with getting through the group, good ST sales and a new sponsor, there must be money available for 1 or 2 more. Still feels light up top. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
