Listened to Houston's post match excuses in line then took in Paul Clement's interview after the Swansea match yesterday & it's night & day in terms of ownership of the issues - phrases like collective responsibility etc
oh for some honest humility on the part of our Head coach
by the way whats the difference between headless chickens at the slaughterhouse & Falkirk players at the stadium?
The chickens still have a heart to keep going!!!

Please will the dream team if Levein & Houston be reunited - we will even forego any compensation

That's it confirmed as an undisclosed fee. Shame the current squad won't see any improvement before a new stand.
The following is an extract from a Swans fans site so can't verify if the figs being quoted are accurate but it dies back up the assertion earlier from Back Post Misses:
Expected better things of him after such a promising start to his Premier League career when we won 2-1 at Arsenal - a game in which I thought he was excellent.
Sadly I don't think he ever fulfilled his true potential with us.
Mind you, given that we only spent £350,000 (with a £500k add-on clause if sold-on for Falkirk I believe) for him, so if the figures quoted are to be believed then the club has made a profit

A makeweight in the Clucas to Swansea deal I'm afraid.
I'm hearing that they are separate deals around £3.2 million - wonder if we have a sell on clause

I'd expect 1000 ish to 1200... Folk on holiday still, folk just back from holidays and we have a cup game at home midweek at a fraction of the cost going on Saturday.
A family of four £50 odd quid on tickets not to count travel v £30 and no travel.
I think it will be closer to 1800

Brown and Thomson used to lose the plot against us so easily back then. It was far too easy to wind them.up. Ivan Sproule wasn't even good enough to be a poor man's crunchie. Brutal.
Great memories - Ivan Sproule whatever happened to him

Keith Watson on his way to Falkirk on loan.
This has legs given Houston worked with him at Utd & a natural right back
Must mean Sibbs is signing for Luton & also Kidd on way out

That's a fair commute! What I meant though is even within a 10-15 mile radius there are better places. However as you rightly say, it's expensive down there.I am convinced he will end up at Hibs

Any truth in the rumour that Lennon is looking to swap McGinn plus £200k for Liam Henderson?
Also heard that a possible Graham plus £100k for Craig Sibbald deal under discussion????

I heard the name Billy McKay the Wigan striker that was on loan at Inverness last season is possibly on Houstie's radar - would be decent signing if it came off.
Anyone know if he got released by Wigan ??

We can only dream of those days now.
I'm sure I am not the only Bairns fan who lools at the club just now & feels really discouraged & demotivated by the news of yesterday's resignings.
It seems to me we need a radical change in par with what happened some 14 years ago a la the ruthless purging that McCall brought..........unfortunately that would be counter intuitive for Houston who is the epitome of old school caution.

Whilst I share the natural disappointment at losing Wills energy & versality I do believe some of the posters on here are suffering from premature exasperation!!!!!!
Game against the grass hoppers (hibbies) will give us an indication of both Houstie's tactical formation going forward & how much Vaulks is going to be missed this season, so until then whilst these forums are the bedrock of freedom of expression it is still supposition & conjecture at this stage

Probably signing both might be ludicrous but why wouldn't one of them come on loan for example - assured of regular game time, don't have to personally relocate, know they would be joining a team who play to win - who would have thought the likes of Skacel would have come to you guys a couple of years back - all about ambition

RC55 FFC I have been banging the drum for us to sign the likes of McKay Stephens on loan & wondering if you have some credible info here- he is exactly the kind of young player who we should be going after - skilled, eye for goal, and a point to prove
0 -
Really promising young player who has pace & goal threat.
He also has a winning mentality, good work ethic & youthful enthusiasm allied to self confidence.
Kevin has the potential to go far in the game & in my opinion is a far superior prospect to last young striker of ours that was signed by Swansea last year, Botti Biabi.
Hope he does the business & bangs in the goals for you guys and keep us posted on his progress.

You need to ask him about Parkhead Harry

Assuming Will has left I tend to agree that whilst Rankin useful addition to depth of squad what we really need is an attacking winger type Player who offers us something different - someone with pace & guile to open up defences such as the former Utd youngster McKay - Stephens currently out of the picture at Sellick park who in opinion fits the bill for a potential loan signing

Look a decent pairing to be honest & gives potential for three at back should Houstie want to change options

You would have thought the boys & girls from leith would invest their time rebuilding their tarnished reputation after the hampden fiasco but I guess distraction & deflection is always the strategy down Easter road!!!

Gary McKay Stephens from Celtic on loan - Father Brendan doesn't rate him

I hear we are getting couple of players on loan from Swansea in exchange for Sibbs plus seven figure sum..............!
David Cornell Goalie and Rory Donnelly Striker are two names in the frame.
Of course it's loanees plus the £1m transfer fee in exchange for Sibbald...............silly me

Suppose he did play for Killie at end of his career though not sure Hartley would fancy being back up to super Ally at Rugby Park!!!!!!
