Its not attractive to them to be part of an equal share committee even if that does make more sense to us as fans. To get this through a different approach is going to be needed. That might be to give the Rawlins the control they want but drip feed the investment and make it dependent on the Rawlins achieving set targets that are designed in the clubs interest. A bit more creativity basically than here are our demands take it or leave it. Edited June 1, 2021 by Back Post Misses 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't be as bad as these tops with all these daft fecking designs all over the front. I think that would be quite decent in navy & white. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No seasons , no merchandise etc. Now their in getting rid is going to be very difficult. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retains the seats the Rawlins have 2. Gives continuity with 2 of the current board still there ensuring some of the foundations already in place are not torn up. 3. Gives a balance with the Rawlins investment (remember to retain his 26% he would need to invest another 160-170k) 4. Brings fans representation back to the club 5. brings a new chairman in to ensure that all sides pull together for the benefit of the club and giving the club the fresh start it needs and deserves All that and the club get best part of 750k as a result. if that is bull in a China shop so be it. I'm liking that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you’re all working yourselves up into a froth before actually seeing what’s in store. So far, I’m quite happy with the coach choice plus the two new signings. You may be correct but let’s give the new regime a fair crack of the whip. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocco Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 Our fans are really something else. The same people who were frothing at the mouth for Rawlins to get involved are now talking about how they’ll get rid of them. We haven’t even begun to see how things are going to go, so calm down ffs! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The worst FFC strip by a country mile. Wasn't it chosen by Fulston's daughter or is my memory failing me? A rich man's play thing eh, never again? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardle is Magic Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 Williamson should be one of Falkirk’s best players next season. Should rip up the L1 defences from right back. I really felt he would move from EEP and end up in the top flight or Champ down south. He had such fantastic potential when he broke through, so I’m not sure where things started to go wrong. Best moment was when he ended up being triple marked by Forfar. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uncle Chief Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 In the last 7 days I’ve heard 400, 500, 600k now it’s 750k being invested, is it now the FFC version of “Beat The Bong” and who chooses the independent chairman....a raffle?!? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good signing for Falkirk! Should be decent for Falkirk in League 1 but that is as far is it goes -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
