    Another manager and his background staff binned and the resulting clear out of players. Not only the financial implications of all the hiring and firing but the damage it does to the credibility of the club as a reliable and trustworthy employer. The more often the merry go round the less chance the club has in attracting the caliber of applicant required to stop further decline. 

    Stop further decline? I asked if this was rock bottom after the 5-0 Partick defeat, now we've just been pumped 6-0 by Queens Park. No further decline is possible surely but we are risking that happening by keeping Sheerin in post. 

    We can't do nothing

    Need to get rid of Sheerin and therefore require someone to take charge while we appoint a permanent manager. Should only be for 2-3 weeks tops so not sure who else could do that for us.

    Maybe one of the players could step up but that may undermine the new manager depending on results

    Obvious choice would be Dixon

    You need to learn women as good as your woman has learned men. She knows if she says "can we go and spend all day at Matalan looking at pointless shite just in case I fancy buying something" you'd have said no. By telling you she's going for a specific item, she's conned you into thinking it'll be a short and timely trip to the shop. As soon as they ask you to take them to any sort of retail outlet, say no. It's a trap. 

    You mean they're scheming devious liars? 

  4. Had to talk her through setting a calendar reminder on her phone for tomorrow night to give her parents a lift as "I don't know how to do that".

    She's had the phone 2 years and this is her 3rd or 4th iPhone. Needless to say I've had to set a reminder on my own just in case  

     

    Also - isn't capable of opening drawers to look for a charger because "I'd never put it there so why would I look there?"

    Raise it with school but they won't test until he is at least 8 as before then it's a perfectly normal mistake kids make as they learn to write.

     

    My son is dyslexic, as am I.

    Thanks to everybody for the replies. I spoke to his teacher this morning and she basically said it is a perfectly normal mistake mainly due to the 'learn through play' meaning they're not getting a 'flow' of writing but once they're writing more this kind of mistake happens less often. 

    She said its something she'll keep an eye on especially if it's still happening in a year or two's time

  6. My son seems to struggle with some numbers and letters (2's as 5's, S's as 2's or back to front kind of thing). I noticed it during home schooling but put it down to him not fully concentrating. I don't know of its a brain function issue. He was off school ill on Friday and I asked him at one point to check how many minutes were left to go on the washing machine to which he told me it said 3nd. He's left handed but his mum and I are both right handed so I wonder if his brain is wired differently

    Has anybody else experienced this? I know the simple answer is to speak to the school but all we would get is they'll keep an eye on him. 

    He's 6 and in P2

    You were in the comfort of your own house watching it so can't really argue with folk who made the effort to go to the game.

    See what Deans and Co have done here, got fans arguing among themselves about something about whose a real fan and who's not. 

    He's said he couldn't go due to childcare issues. That doesn't make him a fan who made no effort to go today, he couldn't go due to looking after his own kids which I'd like to any of us would do in the same circumstances. 

     

    FWIW "come here and say that" is universally recognised as a threat

    We’ve never been down as low as the seaside leagues. Your club really should be strolling this league. That’s what makes it so fcuking funny to see you struggling. It’s karma for all those years you spent money on players rather than modernise Brokeville.

    We moved out of Brockville nearly 20 years ago. Let it go

  9. Went along to the game last night. First time at Newtown Park in years, the previous game being Bo'ness v Buckie Thistle. Impressed with the new look of the ground as that stand was an eyesore.

    Thought Bo'ness deserved their win, the first goal was a great goal. 

    Wick were no great shakes, perhaps two trips in 4 days caught up with them. Knew the red card coming  as soon as the player picked up his first.

    Completely agree with the comments about the ref and Wick no 8 who was the best player on the pitch. 

    How bad was Wick's keepers kicking in the first half?

    I am in this stage right now. She doesn't want to arrange anything. So I have a few nights out I am going on. Wee snidey comments or "where you going on sat again?"

    Reply with a big smile and an "I've telt ye that already". Not in a cheeky way but in a delighted way and it fucks her off even more.

    Mine is similar. I'll give her some information about things like needing the car at a certain time, booking a gas engineer or date and time I've booked her nail appointment with a friends wife. Two hours later she will check the information I've given her by asking "did you tell me about....?"

    Apparently I'm a sarky/crabbit b*stard when I say "yes and you'd remember this info if it was your maw or sister telling you"

    I doubt there's a Falkirk fan alive who isn't aware that our club is rotten to its very core and needs completely gutted from the top down to ever come close to fulfilling its potential. 

    I'm not on it but I believe there's a COYB Facebook page where they see no wrong and those who do see wrong are shouted down
