FalkirkBairn2021 Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 I do have sympathy for the board. They are fans at heart and have tried to do the right thing. They've brought in what looked a competent manager, invested funds in the squad and have been let down. Again they need to make a footballing decision now that's bad for the balance sheet. More payoffs to McGlynn and Smith. Another turnover of players. All in the landscape of a really precarious financial position and worries about breaking even next season. Rather them than me 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
18BAIRN76 Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 Anyone worth their salt giving a management team a two-year deal after the debacles we’ve had to endure recently would surely have negotiated some form of break after a season, covering us if it didn’t work out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbf, it’s the managers post our hilariously bad previous Board that have managed to keep us as genuine basket case club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, clause or no clause, we cannot afford to give McGlynn another season. He is finished as a manager. He isn’t a younger Roy Hodgson, he is an older Ray McKinnon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's really what sticks in my craw tonight. Every time we're asked to step up, we do. Just seems like the players can't hack it and for all their warm words about our support would prefer to play in front of one man and a dog. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairn in Exile Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 Thanks to our spawny cup run we have the cash available to be able to afford to pay off McGlynn and Smith now. Give them another season like this one and the fan numbers will fall off a cliff. They'll go at the end of their contracts at the end of next season and we'll be stuck with a part-time team and part-time manager for season 24/25. No chance of being in the Premiership by the time our 150th anniversary comes around. They have to go now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DA Baracus Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 (edited) 42 minutes ago, Newbornbairn said: Get rid of him now. The tie is fucked anyway so we've nothing to lose. To stand there at 3-0 down after 30 minutes and do absolutely fucking nothing to change things was disgraceful. When we won the game in Airdrie 3-4 we made two subs at 32 minutes and then another at half time, and it was only 2-0 at half time. When they got a man sent off it was 3-1 and we then made another sub. We made the final sub when it was 3-3. Can see that McGlynn only made one change at half time then waited 10 minutes to make another, then nearly 15 and 20 minutes after that to make the last two. Raeburn was sent off in the 65tg minute but McGlynn waited 5 minutes to make a sub then 5 more to make another. McGlynn regularly is out thought in big games. McPake, Dodds and now McCabe have had him well worked out in the big matches this season. Incidentally, had we lost that game in Airdrie then I think Falkirk would have only been a couple of points behind, with plenty to play (game was in February).

Lichtie78 Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 30 minutes ago, Duncan Freemason said: Nice if our manager used him properly, but that is way beyond him. Starting with Henderson out left totally unsure what he was meant to be doing, then Williamson and Nesbitt. Good God almighty. Play off semi, and McGlynn saves his biggest tinker for tonight and puts out an experimental set up. Disastrous. Just got PTSD from Dick Campbell's attempts to make Liam Henderson a left winger last season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiddy Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 How hard is it to realise you’ve made a mistake in set up, within minutes of a game starting, & make the changes required to counteract the advantage your opponent is taking full use of? It might have kept you in the tie, but to wait until halftime & make a like for like switch was ridiculous. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 A question was asked not too long ago about how bad was Sheerin in his last 10 games in charge. Not including tonight so as to skew the numbers. McGlynn’s last 10 is better……..one point better. It’s done for me. If he hasn’t amply demonstrated how far off the pace he is as a manager, then God only knows what it will take. For me, keeping him is unthinkable. Carraticus Potts………well done you. You called it correctly. Our only chance for a bit of dignity is to get rid, and hand the team to McGinn for Saturday. 4 minutes ago, bairn88 said: Hard to blame the board for anything that’s happened in last few months No blame whatsoever on the Board. They have supported their managerial pick 100%. Now it’s time to part company with him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

18BAIRN76 Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 Hopefully some form of fucking clause in Nesbitt’s deal too. Who the f**k thought that was a good idea? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely the board will sound him out ? I think it’s 5 times- Bankies, QotS, Ayr twice and Thistle. If you do take him on and he gets you up, remember to sack him immediately if you have ambitions beyond the Championship 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
