  1. I still think the rest of last season's gang dont deserve to wear a Falkirk strip ever again for downing tools and not trying a leg from about September onwards.
  2. I think we'd like to twist more it's the stick that's the problem. They won't be budged. And that ultimately will be why despite any slight improvement I think we will be in league 1 again next season come the end game. And it's something we can ill afford.
  3. Fourth at the very best. Morrison is a liability and liable to spit the dummy, McGuffie and Hetherington Oliver I think is one of those that will be a meh player, Williamson is just not the answer at right back he's very poor. I assume you mean Innes Cameron up front, won't get double figures.
  4. Unless McGlynn makes very good use of the loan market and our mooted 1 or 2 permanent signings to come in are great then I'd say we might keep a hold of our title as being the most likely to make a howling cnut of it again. A lot depends on whether we can shift more of the shit Holt lumbered us with. I don't think we will shift enough so I'm expecting McGlynn to make us harder to beat which wouldn't be difficult, but there is absolutely nothing from middle to front in this team. That's a worry.
  5. Our midfield will get bodied again this season if it's the triumvirate of Nesbitt, McGuffie, Hetherington in the main. McGinn if he keeps healthy should help but I'm expecting much of the same shitebaggery as last season when they hit their stride or rather don't.
  6. The bit that gets me besides paying him a fat wedge did Rennie think he was going to bang them in when the midfield was non existent. Was he relying on Griffiths banging long rangers from near on the half way line every time he got the ball because it must have been his train of thought. Any striker coming in this season is going to have the exact same issue because we do not have the personnel to create enough.
  7. At least they avoided the white top with the black carrot on the front
  8. I don't he's never a professional footballer in a million years. How the hell he hasn't cottoned on to the fact a career change might be better yonks ago suggests he's not got much between the lugs either.
  9. I don't think we will be anywhere near the title not with this squad. Unless we somehow shift some of last season's dross which is looking less likely by the day and McGlynn makes every signing still to come in a good one. We have nothing up front a the majority of last seasons shitebag midfield.
  10. Smales-Braithwaite. Sounds like he should be selling wines online.
  11. I'll have a go, give Raith Jaime Wilson, Blair Sneddon, Brad McKay, Ryan Williamson, Luke Holt, Aidan Nesbitt, Stephen Hetherington, Craig McGuffie and Seb Ross and they can keep his brother. Ta muchly.
  12. We have strikers it's just one is an untested kid, one is utterly hopeless, and the other whilst just signed has hardly been prolific. I also expect the utterly hopeless one to be punted as soon as the loan market opens up. I don't think McGlynn is the type to rush in and sign someone for the sake of it like Sheerin did with Wilson, it maybe we will need to wait till the competitive matches start if he's looking at prem squads for players. The trialist market is usually full of dross, with the occasional gem.
  13. I'd say we need two strikers, that could get 10+ goals each. The issue of finding a 20plus goal striker is if you do find one and he gets injured where are the rest of the goals coming from in this team?, Morrison might chip in with a few. There needs to be more from other areas of the park. We have had problems last couple of seasons creating and scoring enough. With the current personnel i don't see that changing. Thats the biggest issue. Could have the aforementioned rejuvenated Griffiths but if he's stuck up top isolated with zero service he's not going to score either.
  14. I actually wouldn't be too bothered if Morrison went if we could bring in better BUT the one thing he does have is pace and apart from when Kabia came in last season he's been the only one in the team who is quick. And given the other options are Wilson, Oliver and Malcolm it's slim pickings in the striker dept. I still think we need two decent strikers, a right back, a winger and a midfielder (that may or may not be the trialist from last night ). Pivotal that McGlynn gets the one or two permanent signings still to come in spot on and the loan market ones same. Its just a pity it looks like we will have to wait an entire season so we don't have to endure Wilson, Nesbitt, McGuffie, Hetherington, Ross, Williamson, Holt and Sneddon call themselves Falkirk players. I would say McKay but he'll sit on the two years he's got left.
  15. Ah right I couldn't make the game just going by the team sheets on the club page. How did we play overall?
  16. Wilson I didn't see in the team sheet unless I've missed it.
  17. I kinda like it but it's probably just nostalgia from me with all the French kits of my childhood being crammed with sponsors logos I had a red Lyon top as a kid and really it could have doubled as a tour de France jersey. I thought it was smart as f**k.
  18. No Wilson or Ross either hopefully been told to find another club.
  19. I'll go with the Sibbald "would be too good for league 1" and by rights he should be. Alston was utter guff but better at Killie because he was surrounded by better players who did their jobs. The same rules apply to Sibbald, even if by some miracle he did sign for us all eyes would be on him, it wouldn't be long before Hetherington, Nesbitt and co started going invisible and he'd get dragged down with them. He needs better players round him than we have, he got that at livi and was relatively decent. For me he's still a bottom half prem/top championship player and if he does go to the likes of Ayr no disrespect to them but he really must be struggling to find a club, who knows maybe injuries/long covid have took their toll but I'd certainly be aiming higher than us or them.
  20. We need a manager in a job who rates Brad McKay, out of interest when he was at Caley who signed him it wasn't Yogi by any chance?
  21. It's probably the one thing that held him back especially when he started his career as a winger. He's never had pace.
  22. Still think he'll end up at Killie or St Johnstone, or at the worst top end championship side. It won't be us.
