The Falkirk FC Thread


Recommended Posts

It fucking infuriates me what that c**t Holt did and was allowed to get away with.

Morrison still with two seasons left getting an extension when injured.

Hetherington, McGuffie, Williamson and Nesbitt getting two year deals. Probably about £200,000+ a year for that shower.

It has absolutely fucked us over.

Agreed. The Morrison one was particularly reprehensible. 

Wasn't that long ago that we had fans with a straight face suggesting we might get money for him.

Fucking insanity.

Any patrons fancy saving the day and paying these jokers off?

It’s a big ask but it would be great if the group could did deep again, having said that there are only so many shares available and the idea was for these to be purchased by the FSS to allow both groups to have an equal shareholding.  A few hundred more fans signing up to the supporters society would help massively.

I’d generally agree with you Harry but were so many instances yesterday where McGuffie shat out of tackles or kept turning into trouble whenever he got the ball. None of them are good enough.

I'll disagree. He ran out-of-puff 2nd half but he's miles better than Hetherington or Nesbitt.  

McGuffie waltzed out of 3 Airdrie challenges with top footwork in one passage of play and set us away. There is a player in there but we are lacking confidence and hopefully wins will breed that.

Wonder what kind of ball park figure would be needed to clear the club of the likes of Nesbitt, Morrison, McGuffie, Williamson, Wilson, Hetherington, Ross etc. We could start a Go Fund Me, sure loads of folk would “Help a Bairn” in need 😁

Even getting shot of half them would help.

It wasn’t a freak result- we are shite. Airdrie weren’t the same team as last season yet managed to stick 4 past us with ease.

It wasn’t out of the blue either- we’ve had 1 good performance this season against Hibs and have been poor in the rest.

I imagine supporting the mighty bairns has taken a toll on you, forgetting last year won the league 3 weeks in after beating airdrie when you were down to 10 men for half the game. But you're right we aren't the same team as last year, we have got even better at pumping your lot.

McGlynn has the added knife-edge of dealing with players who we can't shift & notoriously downed tools last October. I can see why he didn't tear into them. We're playing a long game here.

Yes perish the thought they down tools this season and start underperforming...

You would have to bridge what they are on now to what they could get elsewhere.  
I bet little change out of 100 grand if at all. Maybe cheaper to loan them out

Wouldn’t say there has been an overreaction from Falkirk fans as they’ve watched their team in the pub league for a good few years now, but surely this talk of “another year in this league” already is utter nonsense? You had possibly the hardest start to the season you could get, and the games haven’t went your way. You’ll be disappointed given the hype around the manager and players he’s signed, but I can tell you for free that a few of them will be wasters, and your manager is a complete mumbleclown when it all boils down to it. Expect more ramblings post match. If we beat you, he’ll be a fucking seething mess, especially if we’ve dominated the game and won comfortably. He’s a complete banger of a man. I’d still have Falkirk as favourites to win the league though. It’s early days.

Its peoples livelihoods and family commitments we are talking about and many will have financial arrangements tied into the contacts they have.

As a responsible employer and to have credibility in future signing negotiations these individuals have to be treated fairly.

Ballpark 50% of the value of the remainder of their contacts let's say 15k each tax free to go now. 

Why they're not been binned is simple. The club can't afford it.

Like it or not the clubs progress this season depends on McGlynn coaching something out of them and setting up a system of play to get the most out of them.

Pretty suprised you can't get a tune out of Williamson, he's won this league twice.

That one surprises me its, I don't know if its a confidence issue or it looks like he can't be arsed tbh, can't work out which.

It doesn't t help that thanks to Holt he has managed to assemble single handedly the worst team in Falkirk history arguably its up there with Hartleys signings of Dallison, Lewis etc.

I swear that c*nt Holt was sent to ruin us.

So as BPM says we are looking around the £100k mark. It’s a lot of money and would be a gamble but you wonder the cost of us not going up.

Don’t quite follow you here, are you not being a bit contradictory? Your telling us on one hand the manager is no good and the players he’s signed are wasters yet you put us as favourites to win the league?!

I wouldn't put McGuffie in same boat as the rest mentioned, he would be aok for a squad player. Hetherington and Nesbitt would top my list, Hetherington brings absolutely nothing to the team and is one of the worst centre mids we have had.

I'm guessing he's had his share of injuries that he's scared to play his previous commitment level to avoid injury, he is basically shit feart on the park now.

Exactly mate. McGlynn will need 3 seasons minimum - we need stability.

With upmost respect, we need out of this league (this year) however let’s be honest with playing the downed tooled brigade, it’s likely at best two years. A third year and it’s definitely part time at best. The club has been backed against all odds, but the lack of further backing (FSS) is “enough is enough”

Sorry my friend, but that really is just a bloody awful troll attempt. You just beaten us 4 zip, and you come up with that?

Trolling isn’t for everyone, and it most certainly isn’t for you.
