I doubt I'd even be that arsed these days about FFC if it wasn't for the 'Yogi Years'.
Time for the club to do something for the fans and being him home.1 -
I need some Yogi in my life.

You quite often see footballers being labelled as a role model for kids but when you get someone like Will Vaulks he's just a role model for everyone.A very special award for a very special player and person.
We still love you Will.

That's a couple Aberdeen fans I've spoken to who rate him as an u20s coach. I can't quite remember his last season at Arbroath, was there not talk that he was already leaving to join Aberdeen before the end of his final season?
I suppose it's one of these appointments which is a bit of an unknown, he's not a rookie and has had success in management but it is also a bit of 'black mark' getting Arbroath relegated.0 -
His Da told him off for leaking his meeting with Deans and he's banned from using the internet.Does anyone find it weird that the post from CC52 FFC about speaking to Gary Deans has disappeared? In fact, CC52 FFC now seems to have deleted their profile. [emoji848]0 -
I'm sure when the Rawlins do come over they will be really pleased to see their chairman spouting off in some random meeting.

That's Yogi continuing to prove those idiot Falkirk fans wrong again.

All I ask is we have a team that scores goals and celebrates with me.

As a fan base we need to get one collective message across. I suggest we forget about Deans, Holt, managers and players.
This summer all the focus is on Martin Ritchie and Sandy Alexander holding no more influence on the club. Get that across loud and clear and we can finally start again.9 -
Ahahahahahaha fucking falkirk scum

I actually hope we do scrape into the playoffs. That gives one final home game for a protest. We've got to make a big enough fuss that the Rawlins see what's going on.

I got the impression the share issue was more an attempt to shut up some current shareholders who were vocally opposed to the MSG and board.60 is an incredibly low number, the share issue was set up in an awful way IMO. They priced out fans who wanted to put a couple hundred pounds in by setting the min amount at 400 and were also turning away people who wanted to make a more substantial purchase.
Hope it hasn't had that impact...1 -
You know what? f**k it. Comfortable away win.

Around 18 years ago I started showing an interest in going to matches, my Dad gave me two options. We can see St Johnstone who were more local or we can go see Falkirk who were my Papas team.
You boys really make me doubt my decision every single day.7 -
I know quite a few St Johnstone fans and incredibly all of them dislike their board.

I really struggle to see what exactly is on Holt's CV or in his background that merits him being given the autonomy to set the whole football strategy of the club.
Completely agree. Looks to me like another cross our fingers and hope project from the board.0 -
Seems to be a lot of confusion as to what a DOFs job actually entails. My take on it is Holt should be setting up a system, or couple of systems, which will be used throughout the club irrespective of the head coach. Sounds like he's already started that to a degree talking about playing with a 6, 8 and 10.
Next job is to identify which players currently at the club have the ability to fit into those systems and get them signed up. Now scouting begins on the remaining positions. At our level I'd imagine their would be a shortlist of somewhere between 5-10 players for each position. All this should be done with likely minimal involvement from a head coach.
This shortlist will be presented to the coaching team and together they will set an order of preference in line with the budget, before Holt it will have Lex Miller involved with this so no wonder our signings have been a shambles.
Therefore whoever comes in as our head coach will likely be someone who is regarded highly as a 'coach' rather than a 'manager' and also has the experience of coaching the same system Holt wants to implement.2 -
Makes sense I guess.
Superb reputation as a coach - that is what the club are looking at under this structure looking at Deans comment s
Whole point of a DOF is to have a set system throughout the club which doesn't change when you lose a head coach.0 -
I've cracked it. O'Donnell and Cregg from St Patrick's.
Already got some experience in management and look like they are on an upwards trajectory.
2 players who know what's expected of Falkirk sitting in the top league which is where we want back to.
Paddy Cregg was for a long time in my top 3 favourite players.
I'll let Holt know that's who we want.1 -
I'd be telling the Rawlins to start getting on those contacts at Stoke and see if Dean Holden is in the mood for a project.

If Neilson isn't fully fit that's probably the team I would play.

I mean that's what you need to coach the 'fun fours' part of the foundation. This guy was doing much more than that.If he is involved with the foundation then that's hardly a good sign. Its a glorified kids club. All you need to get a "coaches" job there is a disclosure certificate and proof you attended a 1 day SFA day course. Is that what we've stooped too?
If he is involved with any match day prep then why has this never been announced through the usual social media channels? Any other footballing member if staff usually is. Its almost as if they know its looking fucking amateur.
Honestly feel like packing it in.0 -
How sexy does TFS look there though!?
