Russ Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 A bit dramatic to want them all emptied. Aye the vast majority are dugshite and are nowhere the standard required. But Mutch, Dixon, Morrison, Telfer and potentially Connolly are all players who are good enough and can contribute. It is pretty damning though from 20 signed players there’s only 5 I’d be looking at keeping.Ever since the January window under Hartley the recruitment at our club has been absolutely horrendous. Even the last couple of windows under Houston it was appalling as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshmallo Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 I'm delighted to see The Mask dropped. He's been murder. Hopefully 4-4-2 with Morrison up front. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It certainly had little to do with any great affection. Thistle have given McCall time and it looks like it’s doing wonders for them. However it’s clear that M and M didn’t have the tactical nous needed and to needed to go after the last Cove game. So I’ve already stated they were not the answer. Absolutely none of that is relevant to my view that the players we have - many signed by M and M - are a bunch of wage thieves and I want every single one of them emptied from our club at the end of the campaign. That’s a major departure from me as I have been pointing out for three years now that we need to get stability back at the club. However, it’s needed as you need players that you can trust to try a fig if you are going to have any success, and these guys don’t remotely cut it..... Agree with your first sentence completely. I thought it best to retain them while we were well clear at the top as, although we were shit, we were the best shit in the league and I didn't see any point in binning them at the time. Hindsight's a great thing though and, as it turned out, I was wrong. I don't think we should bin all of the squad though, I think there are several players, i.e. Mutch, Dixon, Kelly, Morrison, Connolly, Keena and possibly Alston & Dowds that could do a job for us next season, if not as starters then as part of the squad. Would also give us some continuity which, as we've discovered in recent seasons, can be quite important. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthew1876 Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 It was Holt that was behind the 4-5-1 idea that we saw after the restart wasn’t it? So not surprised to see him start it up again. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

18BAIRN76 Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Regardless of whether we stumble over the line in any kind of fashion or not, there is a fair few in this squad I can't wait to never have to watch in a Falkirk shirt again next season. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoveRangers1922 Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 (edited) God help us we start Livingstone at left back and somehow Leighton plays. Rory and Connor Smith both on the bench. We change to a 4-5-1 which I'm not a fan of either Can't say I'm too optimistic going into this one Edited April 24, 2021 by CoveRangers1922 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, I agree with that, but I think they've already shown that they're not capable of doing so. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
