  1. What are you drinking.....obviously my drink aint working....... Outside the old firm I cant think of a six figure sum being spent by any club in Scotland for a long long time 2004 I think when Dufc paid six figures for Lee Miller...... So 8yr on St Johnstone would buck that trend......
  2. We all can bid sums of money but actually meaning it is another thing..... There is only one club in Scotland that would or can bid 200k plus and they wont....... I can see a 50k bid from St Johnstone for a Millar, Higgy, Farid, McGovern who are all out of contract come summer and fit the beneficial bill you mention as they are experienced enough to fit into first team football, but 200k you are having a laugh These youngsters are for the future, the Jan window is always used for quick fix or adding to compliment what you have, if we do lose one of these youngsters during this window, I fully expect them to be with us till May to finish off their learning curve....
  3. 50k may get you an out of contract summer FFC player, 200k minimum for one of Sibbald, Wallace, Duffie, please come in and bid the 200k as there are much bigger suitors looking at the three mentioned to increase the fee......
  4. Shouldve done so against Partick instead of dancing around the six yard box with it.....thankfully oor Farid was at hand.......
  5. Turned down 100k at the start of the season for him, tho has been injured majority of the season The big show has scored one header for Tranmere, he tended to play centre striker with two supporting wide players last season, He had pace to burn once he got on it, that was the only plus side of advice I gave to Tranmere fans. I personally dont think Showunmi would be scoring goals in current team, a lot of our play is all about having a great touch, something only Higdon I would say had. Higdon I would say was a success in the 3 players mentioned tho and has proven himself in his following clubs too The latter Brendan I think is the worst player I have ever seen......He left Scottish football to be a kicker in Australian rules or soccer, whatever they call it down there with the funny ball shape....I think that tells you all you need to know was that he could kick a ball long and Davie Clarke signed him...... I have said on many posts that this current squad for me doesnt have a fully grown scape goat, hated player for the fans to single out or pick on. Ok some of the old c**ts like a moan at someone usually Higgy but you could pick many from last seasons crop of c**ts to be the scapegoat.....
  6. He seemingly had a belter of a game against Leeds and the Bradford forums seem to rate him, against us is that Bradford have been shit as a team tho..... If as you said banging a goal in every other week, we would stand better chance of more but I wouldnt be surprised if we get hee haw and a sell on clause...... I dunno, its somehow tho went full circle of how the Bosman rule came in, The claim back then was that the clubs shouldnt have ownership of a player out of contract, this now seems to happen players within that age group. Aluko for me is decent, never kicked a ball against us but he isnt a world beater and Aberdeen were within their right to stand still on freezing him out the game, strange ruling but I suppose clubs have got to have something to cling to as players now have all the rules in their favour. I would like to point out also with my Falkirk head on, we have Higgy and Millar out of contract come May/June....I think I am correct in thinking we will be due money for their development
  7. Gotta say, the retro shirts look spot on as in original design........
  8. Is this in a 3-2 reaming explanation ? A quick jot of your next three games, home to Partick who rubbed Mortons noses in yellow snow last time, away to Hamilton who regard you as their bitches and Dundee away who are the 2nd best form team at the moment, all on the back of 1 win in 8........I wouldnt be alarmed either....
  9. ???? Alarming table I see would be.... http://www.statto.com/football/stats/scotland/division-one/2011-2012/form-table/full
  10. Not being able to put the ball in the net wouldnt beat anyone...... Will that be enough to keep you out the bottom two.....?
  11. 21 more not struggling like yesterday will see ya relegated again.... 1 league win in 8 is not struggling ?
  12. They only turn up when there winning or betting against them.....
  13. Feckin Duffy penalty put my English team oot..... and Ryan Flynn in commentary was called Steven Flynn.......
  14. Thots with his family...... A top Bairn who helped us along the way towards the SPL and helped recover onwards from our kiddy on relegation to div 2...
  15. Ive never been in this thread before but had to check that it wasnt deleted as I normally see it around 5pm Saturday or 10 ish on a Friday night....
  16. 5x teenagers in the starting 11........all 5 on the bench were teenagers
  17. You just werent good enough........ Cheers anyhoo......
  18. I probably am wrong....but without the temp stand, Im guessing that may not be possible...... Id heard last week we were nowhere near selling our quota of tickets....dunno if anything has changed with Saturdays result, tho I do expect many Rangers fans in the wrong end....There will be more than 3000...... edit- Quick glance at soccerbase - our record attendance 7049 v Killie whilst the ground was quoted with temp stand at holding 9200.......pretty pish, considering what crowds we got at Brockville...... Ive been told Rangers have sold their 4000..and Id heard we just sold around 2000 last week.....So perhaps a good chance....I hope not tho, I kinda like the fact our record crowd is against Killie........
  19. Whilst that could happen, we could also go 2nd........ The league so far is as tight as I expected it to be, we are currently sitting in the going nowhere fast places in the league and hopefully that continues but we are now playing against probably the two current favourites for the league and Dundee... Can we beat Morton, Dundee, Hamilton...on paper I would say no, but said the same v Dundee a few week ago and we outplayed them, like majority of the games so far I have thot of us as the underdogs and I include the B&Q cup games. I am not boasting that we will beat the three teams mentioned, only that we can...... Ive yet to fully be disappointed in 90mins so far and at Livvy was probably the worst we have played so far even with 11 men we did not get going, tho we held our own with 10 Last years wasters, I could not say the same about, they knew when they were beaten, the current crop dont.... It is gonna be a struggle, but I am enjoying it so much so far.......
  20. Yep that is great news..... Sold her down the river back then, she was someone who cared for the club 110% and seen her given up so much of her free time for the club in many capacities back in the day I'm pleased for her and pleased that the club have obviously made an approach for her to do so Onwards and upwards in some of the Falkirk Fc movements this season, keep up the good work, it hasnt gone unnoticed
  21. He was at my 21st birthday party........7yr ago....... Falkirk at the time had jokey FFC gnomes.....he scraped the paint of the gnome hat and painted it orange to give to me..... On a side-ish issue the top Houstie is wearing in the t-shirt is the retro top I wouldve liked to have seen back.......
  22. 19 in the mind......28 showbiz age....... I'm guessing Ive doubled and perhaps trebled if Mr B orders as he said he would..... Cracking design tho.....wouldve said otherwise in a nice ish way if not...... Two fellow Houstonians have replicated with my comments.....
  23. Also used the link via facebook to other Houstie Hardcore members and I think at mo, one more sale coming your way......
  24. Thats great.....but have you got permission to use the Houstie Hardcore name......... Thats coming from a founder member and songwriter.....but seeing as you have made a fantastic job of the T-shirt consider permission granted..... I also will be purchasing one, so as they say, there is no such thing as bad publicity and I love the design......
  25. Ive just pulled a Kenneth Williams face at that news..........
