18BAIRN76 Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 (edited) We're languishing in the middle of the third tier of Scottish football getting pumped off absolute jobbers and some Falkirk fans speak about Yogi like he isn't our most successful post-war manager. Granted, it all went a bit sour in the final year (still staying in the SPL and a Scottish Cup Final as going "a bit sour" isn't too bad in my book!!) and he acted like a bit of a c***, but up until that point he had Falkirk finishing consistently in our highest positions for a long time, bringing through exciting young players from our own academy like Barr and Arfield as well as from other clubs like Stokes, Krul, Kasper, Duffy, Gow etc, getting the best out of an aging Latapy who many thought was finished, and playing some pretty damn good football at the same time. I'm not even saying he should come back now - but it does seem odd that even in contrast to the absolute drivel we've been served up for the best part of the past decade people seem so eager to write him off.

Hughsie Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 (edited) Surely it’s a long shot that McKinnon goes any time soon given the history and cost behind his appointment. Unless we go on a really bad run and go a few games behind the leaders I think we’ll be stuck with him. Just want him gone. He’s hopeless. Any chance he’ll take pity on us and walk?

AL-FFC Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 Joe McLaughlin for me cant do any worse although yet to prove himself as a manager worth taking a punt on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocco Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 Would someone like Martin Canning be worth a shout? You've also got Jim McIntyre looking for a job. Unfortunately our spineless board won't sack Ray anytime soon 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crawford Baptie Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 Now is the time to take action as a board. There will be some natural wastage come January so any new manager will be able to bring a player or two in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FairyBaws Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 Absolutely now is this time, it gives the new incoming manager a month or so to get familiar with the current squad and for them to identify player replacements for the problem areas. Not getting someone in now makes no sense in terms of getting the most out of them to finish off this season and get back to the championship 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kemlinbairn Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 Ray will be there until the end of the season for sure, one way or another. Whether we like it or not Hughes would not lower himself to return. McIntyre has already knocked us back even being out of a job. Jack Ross will pick up an Edinburgh gig 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
