Rocco

Greenwood up top? Just because he can dribble towards goal doesn't mean he'd be good up top. It's a totally different position and one where he wouldn't get the ball in much space so you'd see very little dribbling from him. Who played right back yesterday? I just want McKinnon to play a basic formation like 442 that all the players understand

Valid point. We did do the mutual terminations around the January transfer window so never considered that. Ah well

Falkirk did that plenty times last season and other teams signed the players

Yeh. If there is a mutual termination then they become a free agent, therefore, fair game

I was hoping you'd confirm this for us. Saves me checking my phone all morning

Is there a possibility we have signed a RB but just haven't announced it. If I'm correct all the paperwork needs to be done by 12am and then it has to be accepted. I'm really hoping we have and an announcement will be made this morning. Probably not though

The way we steal managers after three months it would surprise me if we can get a player after 5 hours

I was saying we would maybe have been able to make a loan signing before the deadline if we had a manager

Possibly a loan signing

I think your spot on. I'm now just hoping that these players kick on and show a lot more than they've shown so far

One thing this has shown is just how bad things must have been between staff/players and Hartley. I honestly thought they had someone lined up so they decided to get rid of him but they obviously just wanted shot of him

The longer this goes on the more I think we'll do a trademark Falkirk appointment and give it to Young. Although it's still early in the season I can't help but feel worried

I'd doubt we can cancel the loan deals unless it was made clear to the parent club that they'll get zero game time and they were happy to take them back. Given the opportunity I'd send Turner home but if a new manager got a couple of players in then I'd be interested to see if Sammut can do better under the new manager

I think they'll have someone lined up otherwise they wouldn't have sacked him so soon

He's gone

No The end!

I wouldn't leave Russell out. I think there's more chance of him playing right back than us signing a new one

McKee is a complete shitebag though. I know Paton hasn't been great but he has showed some dig

My biggest issue regarding Paton is that I'd happily have him out the team but who do we currently have that you could put in place? None of our other midfielders are physical enough and as shite as he was on Saturday I think we'd get destroyed by RC if you played a midfield two of Sammut and Irving. If he is allowed to bring in a couple of more players then a commanding midfielder has to be one of them. I think we'd look a much better team just now if we had Harkins instead of Paton

To be fair Russell looked quite good on Saturday. Personally id like to see him start the next game with Russell RB and Robson LB

Do you have a sleeve tattoo?

Can't argue with that

I'm not looking for excuses. After what I seen yesterday I want him out. What I'm trying to work out is how we ended up with what we did

True

Very true. You've got to wonder if board have fucked him as well. It wouldn't surprise me if they went with all the cheaper options and expected him to make it work. Either way it's not working
