LeodhasXD Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 1 hour ago, printer said: No he didn't. At Alloa, Hetherington's game was all about mobility; pressing aggressively, ball winning, covering midfield runners etc, the role he seems to be playing for Falkirk now under McGinn (as Captain Chugwash and Russ have spotted and explained). Flannigan played McGinn's role. I would say also I used to tear my hear out a la Falkirk fans about Hetherington giving the ball away in seemingly simple situations although once the analysis was done on the games though you generally find out his stats show he wins it more than he loses it. Not sure if that still holds true these days but it certainly was during his time with us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put a word in with Ricey and take him back, I feel sorry as he's genuinely giving 110% every game he just doesn't offer anything. Even when we played against Stranraer in preseason he was the exact same and the Stranraer team were honking. The Hibs game was the one exception as he actually looked to be a footballer that night, then against Bonnyrigg it was back to not offering us anything.

FFC 1876 Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Charlie Gilmour off to Cove on loan, still hoping McGlynn's planning on using the bairn for life money to bring in another centre midfielder on loan. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could that potentially have already been spent after having to bring Hogarth in to cover PJ’s injury? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Springfield Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Still expecting some movement with maybe two out, and one in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully not, obviously doesn't help when 4 of your 12 new signings are out injured. When Henderson's back he gives you another option in the middle of the park. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given Ross, Sneddon, Wilson and Malcolm haven't really played you'd hope they'll be trying to get a move elsewhere at the moment. It'll be very interesting to see what position we look to bring another player in for. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

18BAIRN76 Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Was having a wee think this evening and ken a midfielder I miss? Tom Taiwo. He wouldn't have put up with any of the shit in League One x 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russ Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Young Lennox Walker is scoring for fun at Bo'ness. Good signing if he continues to developWas at the Bo’ness game against Stirling Uni a few weeks ago and the boy looks a player. Always looking to take his man on and be positive with the ball. Had a couple of decent efforts and was one of the best players on the park for the first hour before falling out the game which you would expect with a young boy. If he keeps up his form I’d be looking to put him out to a higher level in January with a few to bring him into the squad next year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbf it was all one way traffic up until the red, only some good goalkeeping kept it at 1. Regardless of men on the park, the actual football they played wasn't good, Alloa actually did okay and have guys like Scougall who have that wee bit of class, hence my surprise at the result. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NavyBlueArmy1876 Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 I see our neighbours across the water have sold the naming rights to the big pink bus shelter.

I know that plenty of other clubs have done it now eg Dundee, Ross County, Livi, Partick, Hamilton, Airdrie, Dumbarton & Alloa. Assuming at least some of those won't own their own stadium Edited August 17, 2022 by NavyBlueArmy1876 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
