vikingTON 15,572 Report post Posted August 25, 2019 Further chamces will come your way soon IMO as I sense McKinnon might be about to take a houndingFalkirk fans are far too gormless to bring about a successful hounding. McKinnon literally got you relegated to the seaside leagues with an almost entirely brand new team assembled at great expense, having reached a position of safety with two winnable home games remaining and yet you still applauded his efforts like the braying seals that you are. Then you turned your pathetic attempt at ire on a board who you’ve also failed to remove.Only a big team with exacting standards like The Famous do houndings. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's almost as if one game of football is enough to figure out that someone is a total fucking haddy who should never darken the door of this once-proud football club again.

Also how much pledge cash has been wasted as a result? Cameron Blues next, please. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Did Morton not pay a fee for him? Hopefully the 'undiscosed fee' amounted to us waiving the 20% sell-on clause that our last genius chief executive secured for Scott Tiffoney (current market value: £0). If we paid any real, actual money for that donkey then heads should roll. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dunning1874 10,527 Report post Posted August 29, 2019 (edited) It’s August 29th and we have three defenders. I appreciate that the budget meant we were always going to have a tight squad with some versatile players covering other areas: we were all expecting to see McAlister at centre back again for example, and Jacobs dropping into right back every so often to cover injuries would be fine. However at this point of the window it’s wild to have two centre backs - one injury prone, the other 34 - one left back with no one who can cover there, and no right backs with a central midfielder who should be starting there as our first choice. I’m fine with waiting for quality rather than rushing in to sign the first diddy who comes along, but considering we signed a centre back who was so poor in two appearances he’s been mutual consented already you can’t really say that’s been our approach either; we’re now at the flipside where we’ve left it so late we’ll be scrambling for whatever we can get. We need a right back at least in before tomorrow night, and another centre back by the end of the window. We could really do with three more, but knowing how unlikely that is then we’ll need one of those two to be capable of covering left back as well.

I would find it very strange if he's allowed these players to leave without having replacements lined up. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dunning1874 10,527 Report post Posted August 29, 2019 I’d never heard of him before today but that’s one of the badly needed signings sorted and you’d expect him to be straight into the starting eleven tomorrow. Fans of every club can reel off a list of ‘highly rated’ Old Firm youngsters they signed for their first shot at first team football who turned out to be guff, but on the other hand the last defender we had from Celtic was Stuart Findlay. If Welsh is anywhere near that quality we’re laughing. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm quite happy we've went for someone like him rather than some fat arsed haddie from Forfar or something. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
