He will still be on 4 figures a week at least. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Kinnear Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 Most of the staff are better players than last years imposters. It's still an upgrade on last years imposters 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RC55 FFC Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 He will still be on 4 figures a week at least. £10k a week I was told at Chelsea and we footed 10%. Unbelievable. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well done to your boys for holding their nerve and getting the result. 8 hours ago, P475 said: Well done stenny, you must have had that lots arses twitching like a rabbits nose last night. You are quite right to be proud of that score line against a premier team. Carry that performance into the league season and you’ll do yourselves proud. On 24/07/2019 at 15:27, P475 said: Get in there the Fifers. You did what we’ve struggled to do for about two years. Nothing snide or under hand about your win either, you pure pumped them fair and square. Fantastic result guys, and I hope you can carry that into the league season too. Hope you can pump the pish out of Falkirk all season too C’MON YE FIFERS. On 16/07/2019 at 14:06, P475 said: McManus is a cracking signing for you guys. The laddie has a hell of an engine in him, and will run riot at league one level. He will do the dirty work for your strikers, and will set up plenty for them. Not a great finisher at championship level, but I think he’ll bang a few in for you in league one. I think you guys will be very pleased with McManus. On 16/07/2019 at 14:29, P475 said: Bloody good squad you guys are assembling there. Hope you can drag rovers back up, and we can stay up next season. Looking forward to our friendly banter again if all the stars line up Absolute state of you crawling all over the forum begging to be loved. Have some self respect you Fife c**t. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fuzzydunlop Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 21 hours ago, Grangemouth Bairn said: I suggest we wait c. 8 league games and we will know more ie. 1. Is going with a more compact, high quality squad going to give us a good chance of automatic promotion ? 2. Will the squad be too small and injuries and suspensions have a major impact despite the quality ? 3. With his own squad and against lesser opposition, will Ray play a more expansive and attractive style of football ? 4. Will we live up to our pre-season billing us big, big title favourites ? The next couple of months are going to be interesting and hopefully exciting. as one who who was fairly negative, I didnt mean it to come out the way it did. I must say in all my years of supproting the club I can probably count on one hand the amount of times I've booed one in our own jersey..its just not my style. Certainly not one of the folk constant looking to moan..quite the opposite. I guess my point was really that the past two seasons I've got carried away pre-season about what we are going to achieve. Then through last season fully expecting us to cruise out of the relegation zone has made me a bit more cautious than I normally would be, or have been in the past. I full expect and hope we go back up. I just worry that Ray hasn't shown much in how to break down teams and put them to the sword as much as I'd like. Only managed one of the Leage cup games and enjoyed what i saw. But just hoping we go for it in the way we have done so far and not panic when things dont go our way. Grangemouth Bairn has basically summed up what I was trying to say. I really hope the answer is yes to questions 1,3 and 4 above but I won't assume it will be until a few games in - whereas last year at this point I was talking to a Partick Thistle fan I knew pretty much talking us both to be up at the top come the end of the season -see how wrong that went. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t say turn my back GB I help out at my local club and watch more Scottish football at all levels than most. If I don’t go someone else will take my seat.

Stainrod Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 I was under the impression he'd been guven an initial budget with the idea that once the takeover was sorted it would increase by a small amount. Either that or we're waiting on the Dunne money. Probably what the other trialist is waiting on too for his deal.McKinnon also said Laverty is likely to go on loan once he's fit so he's our only 'reserve' player and not part of the first team squad.Feels like a bit of a mess, either McKinnon has fucked up by using up the budget on too few players or the board has promised him more and not delivered. I know what id bet on.Seems to me the MSG have let Ray down . If a disconnect develops between the manager and the board then expect the unexpected . Stagnation in league 1 .Sadly I can see us struggling to dominate the league as we should . It’s a monumental f—club up . There are no buyers , at best we will get some shares exchanged. We must be the only club in Europe with more directors than players! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isnt there meant to be 2 days of presentations to the board for prospective new owners, on saying that i dont believe anything they say anymore either so shouldnt be surprised if there are no bidders. On another note its being taken on board by others to how P*ssed off we are at the board whats that they say about publicity:https://www.footballscotland.co.uk/spfl/scottish-league-1/falkirk-fans-react-being-asked-16640963 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
