The Falkirk FC Thread


Recommended Posts

Hartley seems to be going with the plan that signing an almost new team will save us as opposed to hoping the losers who got us in this shit suddenly decide to earn their wages.
I'd expect we will sign roughly 6 - 7 In January and that leaves 4 or 5 from what we have now to take a step up and pretend they'r not a shower of wage thieves.


I actually don’t think that’s fair in a number of cases. It was fairly clear that players like Taiwo, Sibbald, McGhee, Grant and a few others were trying. I just think there are a few in the team that are not motivated the same way, probably due to the bull in a China shop approach of our current ‘management’ team.

Well you need to sign better players than we already have. So far Hartley has signed Louis Longridge....


Interesting article here re Hartley’s signings whilst at Dundee.

That makes for scary reading

So who’s out in January?

Thomson
Kidd
Gasparotto
Balatoni
Gallagher (Swansea)
McKee
Harris
Craigen
Hippo
Austin (loan)
Sheppard
Henderson

If Swansea still want Gallacher that will be a miracle...

The only one that will defo out that list be away and wanted is Gasparotto, Hippo and Austin probably wont struggle to find a few suitors to go but the rest we will need to possibly fund their bye bye

The likes of McKee, Shepherd, Harris on 2yr deals from the summer will be in no hurry to move in probably a less money scenario, the rest of them bar Balatoni will have the same thought unless we sweeten them to leave.

If Gallacher did go for a decent fee (the asking price was £750k last January IIRC) might the club rethink scrapping the youth set-up?

Is OneF shutting down? 

Don't think I can be arsed with all half dozen of them migrating to P&B.

Don't think there are as many as that left on there.

Pity really, was quite good fun and informative once upon a time (long, long ago).
