Bairnardo Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 I hope whoever PMd to moan about this has thought about the impact of doing Alex Harris out of 10 thousand pounds. Selfish b*****ds IMO (in my opinion) -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RC55 FFC Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 Hopefully we will still be able to pay by standing order. CC said yes to that question on Twitter to someone earlier. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

effeffsee_the2nd Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 No here to spoil the party but if weve been losing money on a smaller playing budget will that mean if we dont go up next season were fucked ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donathan Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 If 18 is the squad size we are looking at and Hartley is planning on sticking with the 3-5-2 then I think it will be something along the lines of:2 GKs (Probably both new, depending on Mitchell’s recovery)5 Centre halves (Muirhead, Grant, McGhee + 2)3 wing backs (Robson + 2)4 midfielders (Sibbs + 3)4 forwards (Longridge + 3) So probably looking at 12 new signings. Hazard, Thomson, Watson, Tumilty, Taiwo, Blair, Welsh, Kidd, Jak, Nelson, Loy, O’Hara and Shepherd probably all away, mostly by choice of the club. Of that lot Tumilty and Kidd are the two I wouldn’t mind keeping, whilst I’d absolutely love to see Jak and Nelson back but can’t see that happening. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We won't get anywhere if he keeps all those centre halves at the club. Edited April 19, 2018 by Falkirk_Bairn_1983 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely we'll need more than 4 midfielders and i cant see us having 4 strikers on the books if the squads small. With a squad of just 18 we're going to be relying heavily on not getting many injuries. St Mirren have used around 30 different players this season so its going to be a major gamble if we're trying to keep it to 18. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluegrass Bairn Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 14 hours ago, Bairnardo said: When you consider the way Houston often hid behind budget to an extent, its good for the club to simply come straight out and say we are going to throw money at this. Houston seemed like he had to shame the board into backing him. Hartley has been handed it. Great to see them addressing stuff that folk talk about. Safe standing, fan ownership etc. Great to see this level of engagement. CC answered me rapidly when I chinned him about Old Firm colts too. I suspect he appreciates the fact that he should be answerable to the fans. Agreed, it’s a greatly encouraging statement of both intent and actions from the club. Planning, strategies, commitments.... wow. Dates already in place, budgets allocated.... It’s like the club is seriously getting its collective shit together. I’d be surprised if Don Hartley keeps more than 5 of the squad, with the rest consigned to the bin along with our embarrassingly appropriate bog-awful strip. I’ve never been so glad to see the back of a season. What a waste. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Believe The Hype Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 15 hours ago, Poet of the Macabre said: No, I did. Last time I checked, mid-December was not autumn. He didn't start well and that quickly ended any hopes of climbing the table. Hartley has clearly done a good job and I'd be encouraged if I was a Falkirk fan that he'll mount a serious title challenge next season. Although, that should be the minimum expectation for Falkirk every season. I think you should probably check again mate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
