We could still be playing at not score. A few chances that could easily have been goals but the majority of play was totally predictable. Had a bad feeling going into the last 15 that we were going to lose a goal as that double sub totally killed any control we had on the game. Next week is a huge test of where we are in this league. We need to be scoring against the teams round about us and lumping balls in the box from wide won’t be good enough!

Are we no missing the point about Dixon? He’s an old school left back. Not required to whip balls into the box. The real issue is the manager asking him to play that role effectively

They handed out ponchos free of charge last night. Good help considering it was absolutely belting down

What about that queue for the food!!?!?!?!

Bairn for Life canvassing opinions on injecting a bit cash to get a loan player in. The well must be dry! Thought the MSG were keeping things ticking over until the season kicks off?

Maybe doing what the police do with child killers? Let them speak to the media and watch out for body language [emoji23]

If we are dealing in the info available it looks like the whole massive bombshell uncovered is that john park wont start until the deal is done........then its leaked by the board. What kind of huge news is this? John Park would be off his head committing to anything other than that. If there is further info available through the due diligence then it needs to fully investigated and kept confidential until the point we can tell this guy to bolt. For things to be getting leaked is pretty poor and paints no one in a good light

That's a bit better!! As for the rest of the shambles I have came back and read after my lunch: We truly are a shambles at the moment. Again no idea what to make of it all.............Something seems too good to be true and maybe it just is.

Am I correct in saying there are only 3 pubs in Peterhead? seemed to struggle to find more on google

It’s just him. Got to say I am completely on the fence with this whole thing. I get all the arguments for being extremely cautious of this guy but will we ever trust anyone apart from our own fans? It just all seems incredibly bizarre that this guy would go to these lengths if he is not legit. Also what does he gain in coming in to a club with no assets to strip? No one seems to have come up with anything concrete that says he’s a well known con man and has ripped folk off his whole life. In New York he is probably a small fish in a huge pond so maybe this is just an ego trip back where sports clubs are cheaper? Has anything come out of the meeting he has had with the BTB guys?

Just finished watching the Liam doc. Got to say the guy does come across as a bit of a child in an adults body. Heart in the right place but has the occasional howler.

read a few people saying stuff like this but then not replying when asked for more info. As the majority of fans wont really have a clue who these people are personally or previous business dealings then what is there to be scared of? genuine question as I get that the fans bid should play a part but what is that bad about the bid being accepted?

At least we seem to be working towards something......it does all sound good on paper though. A bit uneasy about the pressure being on to conclude before the end of august for funds to be released. So are we on ice until then? John Park certainly came out of nowhere!

So going by the above then already we have the off field issues spilling into the squad/management team. Recipe for disaster here.

McKinnon isn’t a rookie boss though. I just can’t see him spunking cash without building a large enough squad. 17 players is a joke if indeed that’s what it will be come opening day. That alone should be the most damning stat you need for this board to be judged on.....again assuming mckinnons calculator hasn’t broken.

The wrongly accused turned up at the EGM today after a court of law had thown out his racism charge, told the board the courts decision and asked for an apology, he kind of got one. Well played that man. What a thoroughly shameful stain on that board the whole racism shambles has been. Just catching up on all of this now and I must say it has confirmed what many had feared. This board are not interested in any other advice, direction or indeed of any self reflection. The worst state of "leaders" to be in. I really hope the footballing side gets off to a good start because they off the field stuff is an absolute shambles

Noel has been round this circle a few times with various people. This works for both of them to wind each other up. Don’t believe for a second that Noel hasn’t raised a smile at Lewis Capaldi seizing the opportunity to up his own rep....and being relatively funny at the same time. Problem I see with Lewis Capaldi is that so many folk primarily see him as a joke figure rather than a musician. The Sun etc. Will be gunning for him in a few months once he gets a bit boring. Good on him ripping the hole out of it the now but I can’t see him being spoken about in 4/5 years.

Liked him for his effort but that’s about it. Pretty basic footballer and really surprised the pars came in for him.

What a few weeks is has been. From the relegation to the complete shambles unfolding now this has to be seriously concerning for any Falkirk fan. That statement last night is an absolute disgrace. The nerve to put that out is unreal and how the hell did that get through the board? You have failed in your role and the club is at its lowest point in decades yet you still decide to go out all guns blazing rather than quietly via the back door. Clearly learned nothing from the Dennon Lewis episode and the reaction from the fan base...........and at the worst time possible. I have always tried to avoid going after a board/individuals as I don't know what it takes to run a club but that's ended now. The quicker this lot are gone the better. It wont be possible to repair the damage now as far as I can see. I wont be renewing until they are gone as are a good few of my mates. GTF!

Falkirk herald reporting nothing expected until next week to allow more time for details. Sounds familiar

The guy on YouTube called georgia rose is really good. All indie 90s type tunes and tons of oasis.

£225 for south stand, 245 main. Same as last year?

Had a bit of a Falkirk detox after last weeks confirmation of what we knew weeks before....however to all the Morton fans pishing themselves I would be seriously concerned if I were you. Also football has a funny way of slapping you in the face and I’m not sure you should be sitting comfortably next season. Anyway back to us. That statement from the board is beyond parody. We know we have made a mess but please let us undo it.... you have had a couple of disasters now. Possibly you are the root cause? I am still undecided if this is a total disaster or a necessary evil. The players that have been let go so far all appear to be part of the problem so I am happy so far. Once we start signing players though that will be the potential wake up call of where we really are in the world. I will be renewing as I don’t think withholding your cash is the same as torrents of abuse levelled the boards way and ultimately the ST money is the wage budget.

Yeah I check things out on Spotify then if it’s good then buy the record. Bbc6 is pretty much how I discover most of my music. The amount of different stuff you hear on there from all eras is brilliant

Fat white family new certainly is up there!
