Not sure of family situation if settled down south or not. 9 hours ago, FFC 1876 said: Declan Mcmanus, Jordan Mcghee and Alex Jakubiak are all out of contract. Bring them home. 9 hours ago, Long Suffering Bairn said: I would be so excited to get Declan McManus back but we couldn't afford him now. Now that Dundee United will go down, do you think we have a chance at bringing Sibbald home? We can name all the fantasy signings that we want but the elephant in the room is that McGlynn would still be their manager and somehow contrive to have a disastrous 4th quarter so that we end up again with the lottery of the play-offs. Get him tae f*ck. Edited May 25, 2023 by Bairn in Exile 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PedroMoutinho Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 Interesting that the statement doesn’t say the title is the only acceptable outcome. That indicates to me that he will not be sacked even if we’re sitting in say 3rd place come November. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this season confirmed our shitebag group of players are utterly unsuited to any pressure games. We'll be 4th favourite out of 4 if we reach the playoffs again. Our only chance of promotion is building a substantial lead by February and hoping the traditional McGlynn 4th quarter collapse isn't too calamitous.

It also says anything other than promotion is unacceptable, which is clear they won't stand for more of the same as this season just gone past. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shodwall cat Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 Statement basically just covers everything Swinney talks about in the falkirkdaft pod cast. It certainly doubled down on the fact that only promotion is acceptable so I'd think if at any time that becomes a very slim prospect then he will be out of a job. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthStander1876 Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 People wanting the board to come out and be negative? Utterly ridiculous. Decent statement talking about what needed talking about. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’re in trouble if we don’t get promoted - per JS answer on Falkirk Daft. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LatapyBairn. Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 (edited) Quite a balanced / sensible statement all be it mostly states the obvious. I’m one of the fans now prepared to give McGlynn his two years for “phase two” although the way our arses collapsed in the final quarter of the season worries me, I’m hoping that has been questioned by the board with Mcglynn providing some sort of reasoning and also a solution, we simply can’t be as inconsistent next season if we are to win the league outright. On the plus side the management team did improve us significantly over the pre season and recruitment was better than it has been for a while, if we can get a similar level of improvement again going into the coming season combined with a bit of stability other sides won’t have hopefully it leads to finally getting out of this hell hole of a league. One good signing so far in Agemann with rumours of more to follow, the more time that passes the Airdrie game fades more in my memory and I do find myself becoming more and more positive about things.

Grangemouth Bairn Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 Scott Arfield in the press today confirming he will continue playing and will also be back at Rangers in the future in some capacity. Hopefully he continues playing with Falkirk and the capacity he returns to Ibrox in is leading Falkirk out as our captain/manager when we are back in the SPL. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Numbers_One_To_Eleven Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 (edited) It really is on the line next season, promotion or surely hybrid/part-time football. Makes for quite an exciting prospect, sport at its best (just need to remember this when we’re huffing and puffing at home against Annan).

AriG-FFC Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 Have got to say I have lost all faith in McGlynn after the Airdrie shambles. However he is here to stay so just need to suck it up I suppose. He really cannot afford have a poor start or he will be under serious pressure. Recruitment will be very interesting. Running with a leaner squad. Hopefully focusing more on quality than jersey fillers. Time will tell I suppose we really could be doing with a marquee signing to get the fans excited. Arfield would fit the bill but really cannae see it happening. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FalkirkBairn2021 Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 Arfield is one of the most mental shouts ever. Guy on 5 figures a week at Rangers. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest though its Arfield that raised the prospect at the end of the day. There would be zero chat on it otherwise. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will never be back in the SPL that's for sure no matter how many games you win or promotions you get. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
