Guest Caractacus Potts Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 I never get the need to completely dismiss someone, unless you can absolutely refute what is being said, new user or not. I remember a new user suggesting the new Falkirk development team was a sham. That was dismissed but clearly there was truth in it. Same was said when it was suggested Clarke Epos was a cowboy outfit. Not all criticism is unfair or without merit, nor is it automatically made with some form of agenda. Most of us just want to see the club excel in all areas. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roman_bairn Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 There’s absolutely no doubt, that certain posters on here think that we should not be holding the current board to the same level of scrutiny as previous boards. Wrapped up as negative posting.We absolutely should treat the current incumbents in the same way as previous boards and feel free to question anything that’s up for debate.That’s one of the key purposes of this forum…. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the board took the deserved scud on here for touting the rapist, and also for that pishy email last week. It just seems to be one new ITK account after another coming on here these days though, making out like the are the only ones who know what's really going on and we should definitely believe them.

You've said 'the board bought into his CV' and then in the next paragraph admit that he told porkies about his time at Vancouver. Was no due diligence carried out on the guy? If not, then we can certainly lay blame at the boardroom door? Club have been using (and paying for presumably) Little Kerse for months now. My worry is that the FSS is now a busted flush. I hope it isn't...but the resignation of two fans directors in less than a year shows there is definitely not much fun at the fair. It does stand up. That’s the thing. They didn’t have a lot of time to examine every detail, but there was plenty in the public domain that pointed to him being a decent coach, but yes, a bit of digging would have shown his biggest claim to be ambiguous at best. I did hear him say “play offs”, but later I also heard him refer to it as “post season”………which would have been fair enough….…..but not play offs. Where we were back in December with Deans jumping ship before he was held to account along with one or two of his sidekicks, with Sheerin being relieved of his duties, and with what management options were out there, then Rennie brought some risk, but so did Brian Rice or even a Jack Ross. For a very green Board, taking on Rennie was the least risky approach midway through a season that was already a dumpster fire. That he turned out to be out of his depth clearly wasn’t a flaw that the Board saw in him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the recent development you have somehow came across is important enough, and you are just a fan playing it with a straight bat, you would just fire the whole lot on here.Only with an agenda/taking sides would there be any need to try and be all mysterious about it within your first half dozen posts on a forum. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apologies, I hadn't realised there was a minimum threshold of posts before an opinion could be offered. Whether you think I'm ITK or have an agenda is irrelevant. You've read what I've said and the questions I've posed (also sent to the guys at FalkirkDaft). It's up to you whether you believe it or not.

Agendas everywhere.You see, as an outsider to the ITK posters and the defenders of the board I see nothing different from what I saw here with previous boards.At the moment I’m genuinely frustrated that I’m putting my money in every month but I’ve absolutely no clue where we are financially or how much trouble we are really in. That’s Mainly due to vague statements made by our board. If we are now all genuinely part of ‘one club’, it’s time to be more open and tell us where we stand with some numbers and the implications, so we can all make genuinely informed decisions.At the moment I’m not increasing my contribution until I know exactly why and what the implications are of not doing so….. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's an easy one. Definitely think the manager is an upgrade and recruitment has improved. Perhaps the commercial operation has improved...but that wouldn't be hard given there was no commercial operation for large parts of last season when Koszary left. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
