Imagine anyone still thinking this guy would be good for Falkirk. Kyle needs to have a good look at himself!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will then know whether the takeover plans have been approved or not. If it is an egm would then be required .

Of course i have concerns over the whole thing but people on here seem to have spent hours searching for stuff and found very little that is concrete. Once dd is complete then the real stuff starts. Up till then theres very little we can do and i dont think personal theories on the situation really matter one iota. Ok. As I said, I find the resignation, the shrugging, all rather strange. It's not how I'd react and in fairness, it's not how a good few of the fans on here have reacted either. I'm not predicting that it will definitely be disastrous for Falkirk if this bloke gets control. I do think there's a possibility of it though. Despite the way I sometimes carry on on here, I would genuinely hope no existential threat for the club would thereafter come to pass. If it did though, there are Falkirk fans who would choke on their words if ever again attempting to point out that Rangers fans let their club die. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don`t see what we can do even after DD is completed. I would imagine the board`s decision will have been agreed with the MSG. Therefore it will stand at the EGM regardless of what the rest of the shareholders think. You can have a good rant at them but we saw how much influence that had at the last EGM, or is this situation different?? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is him 100% who has had a string of failed businesses in the past with the latest failure as late as January 2018.Whether he has the money now or not is not the concern for me. It is a simple - Do you trust this guy and his backers considering his past record?If the answer to that question is I have doubts they should show him the door. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the attitude, shape and tempo is not miles better than last week then we will lose and McKinnon should be out the door. There in lies the dilemma if you are think about selling the club. Agree with that, same as last week and bye bye McKinnon. There's not a lot wrong with the squad he has built but he just isn't capable of getting them to play which has been the case since January - the shit show he inherited suited him to set up the way he likes without the fans having a go. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether the Board are interested in him is another matter.I’m certainly no fan of Mark Campbell ok, but it’s a far reaching assumption that Gowser and his Indian based consortium is going to be a safe bet.Anyone (and I include myself) who has real experience in dealing with Indian related financial matters will know what I mean.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely its a case of putting certain caveates in the deal then if people arent sure about it.
