Half way there to be fair Mourinho is taking over at Morton in the new year and hopes to double the 1100 fan base I really am halfway there.....!! 34 minutes ago, Poet of the Macabre said: It didn't decide anything about McKinnon. The panel found the club gulity, not the manager. When has a manager been held responsible in cases like these, it is always the club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poet of the Macabre Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 28 minutes ago, Branch Ton said: Falkirk wouldn’t have been found guilty under the second rule If McKinnon hadn’t actually breached a written contract, McKinnon must have known perfectly well when he did business for Falkirk on transfer deadline day that his resignation had not been accepted and/or he had not worked his period of notice. Either he needed to have bought out his contract or Falkirk agreed to pay compo. A manager doing business for two clubs in the same division on transfer deadline day is hardly a minor offence. You can be upset about whatever you want but the fact is the panel did not find McKinnon guilty of anything. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Kinnear Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 Being a Portonian I would quite happily claim if for Grangemouth but we all have FK3 postcodes and its in the FK2 area. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're quite right, that sort of ignorance of geography should be rigourously stamped out. There's even one idiot in our support who regularly contends that Dumfries and Edinburgh are both in the Borders. Unbelievable. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see where that thought comes from recruiting area of the kings own Scottish borderers is Dumfries yet the castle in the cap badge is meant to be Edinburgh castle other than that I see no link, geographically though no link. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello, I've actually been a part owner of an SPFL team, I didn't go to the meetings - doesn't mean I wasn't interested just meant I couldn't be there in person. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 The charge sheet i've seen on this forum includes "mckinnon gate" to make up the numbers. There is very little a fans' party would have done differently. Sorry but that's the truth. Most directors of the club would love a socio-esque membership but we're not Barcelona; we're a middling going concern. Everyone has their heart in the right place here. I wouldn’t have closed the Academy without exploring other avenues of revenue firstI wouldn’t have allowed a National Newspaper to tell the kids we were closing it either. I wouldn’t have allowed Hartley to sign players he hadn’t seenI wouldn’t have accused fans of being racist without the Police investigating it first and having some sort of proofI wouldn’t have nominated an ex-chairman to be re-elected to the Board when he was universally unpopularI wouldn’t have threatened a fan on social media with the police about a few t-shirtsThere are a few that I wouldn’t have done, nor would 99% of Falkirk supporters with half a brain. You and Edi are clearly the 1% 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 The fans bit, with respect isn’t the key to this the Patron bit is. I expect the pledges from them will raise most if not all the cash anyway. When the fans see that commitment more will get involved. Do I think we will get 1000? Probably not but north of 500 I believe will happen when they see some hope for the future that they can help shape. The club is currently dying by 1000 cuts and if the penny hasn’t dropped with some then they are as head in the sand as those running the place. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
