Blame Me

Having watched the interview like Sheerin, for me, Rennie is too passive. Rennie should be demanding a win and not simply looking forward to another mediocre performance in pursuit of getting players fit.

What @RandomGuy. fails to see is that Rennie isn't a long term appointment so binning him now really has no bearing on whether we give him time or not. Persisting with him is admitting we're waiting for the season to end rather than planning longer term and getting someone committed to what obviously needs done. Not a single member of the 1st team staff, realistically, has any skin in the game. Rennie could be gone of his own accord and the loan players, Griffith's and Hetheringtons etc who have shown nothing under two managers will all be gone as well. The harsh reality is Falkirk are in no-mans land now under Rennies continuing tenure and even if the board and he came to agreement recent displays suggest he's no closer to improving us.

Not a hope in hell Jack Ross is coming to us when he's just knocked back returning to St. Mirren, who from the outside, are a club on the up.

Has been mentioned earlier but when was the last time we looked like the home team? Dowds the only player, for me, who gets pass marks this evening. Everywhere else on the pitch I witnessed Williamson and Telfer shite-ing out of challenges or panicked clearances under little pressure. Jacobs at the death summed this team up for me: On his own in Peterhead corner with *3* Peterhead players chasing him down and every other Falkirk player retreating back to our half. The lot of them can go.

So, so poor. It's fair to say come the end of this season we're in no better position than when we started. Yet more turnover of players, a new management team and another season battling in L1 with a part-time squad. Rennie and the club have had time to suss each other and both parties should realistically be looking at alternatives now. Tonight should also put to bed that Dixon is some sort of defensive rock beside the others. He and Miller are done and even their passable performances are behind them. Whoever we appoint needs to change the culture as whatever is in place now has seeped into the fabric of the TFS and is rotting everyone who passes into the team.

Will be interesting tomorrow to see what's changes, if any, are implemented from Saturday. It was said a few weeks ago when Watson signed that defending starts from the front and yet our backline appears as exposed as ever. As we can all see that means the midfield isn't doing it's job and that needs rectified. Peterhead are fighting for their survival and our midfielders will need to break up their possession and snuff out the hope they will come with. It's evident we need to work harder out of possession as Saturdays poorly conceded goals show. If MR doesn't know or realise his best team by now he and the BoD need to clarify the intention for next season managerially as to me, the players and manager no longer have "skin in the game" and our season ends in a whimper.

Flung his arm out at said Cove player dragging him away from the melee. As for Kabia being fouled, goalkeepers once again proving a protected species when in any other part of the pitch a player would be booked for jumping over the top of another.

This pic from Paul Sheerin's Aberdeen care-taker spell foreshadowing what was to come...

The vlog highlights the issues provincial clubs in Scotland face. I can't imagine supporting another team and imagine it's only representative of the age group he spoke to on the night esp. the Falkirk lads in it. As for the "controversy" , it's indicative of footballs tribal nature and fans will use anything to put players off, even if it's untrue - Take Akinfenwa chant a few weeks ago as an example. A decent and humorous watch but clickbait none the less.

How many has Anton Dowds scored

My reaction to signing Griffiths now reminds me of when we got Latapy. I thought he was done and the baggage wasn't worth it and look how that turned out! Just to be clear - I'm not comparing them as players - just my view at the time of hearing of their signings for Falkirk.

Ooer!

Aye. Mine was meant tongue-in-cheek to be honest.

Man who says there are no leaks, leaks that he's been told we aren't in for a target that was leaked weeks ago

Glad to see we've finally cracked Gary Holt's spreadsheet password

Probably read it on here

12+ days since Kenny Miller uttered those quotes As Dick Campbell would say, with those estimations KM can come and measure my carpets

If all other parts of the team were working and you were lacking goals then I'd buy your argument but our misfiring in front of goal is a consequence of the rest of the team so that should be addressed first.

We're killing Morrison now when he was the great hope last year. No-one has impressed enough and until as a team we become better anyone will look "average".

@Rocco for starters the "damaged goods" point is absolute guff. Smaller, less attractive clubs on paper (location, facilities, p/t etc) manage to attract players who have excelled and don't feel the need to associate themselves with the ilk of Goodwillie. I'm not one to stick up for Shadwell - he's more than capable of doing that in his own - but the factors you mentioned are probably a long way down the list of why players would sign or clubs would loan to us. Hope that explains your red.

5 or 6 is pie-in-the-sky. One more is probably all we're looking at.

I'd wager the smart money on Rennie not being around beyond his initial 6-month contract.

Aye and in years preceding that we played at a ramshackle, un-compliant ground, we finished 2nd bottom saved by Airdrie Mk.1's demise and had, in some folks opinion, a complete bam managing us and played at illustrious Ochilview over that period while the club worked out a portakabin! We still managed to sign some cracking players who weren't always the finished article. Aye footballers want success but most want to pay the bills - Being part of successful teams makes that part easier - and some need minutes or a chance somewhere else and take it regardless of the club's stature at the time. Folk dismissing the timing of Holt's departure as long as he's gone are glossing over the fact he must've put in the legwork of scouting and talking to clubs about players and produced something - speculating that it was more potentially poor signings also overlooks that we still haven't signed anyone that the manager thought was better and immediately available. Hopefully we sign a few very soon.

Christ! I've just agreed with Shadwell

Yeah and we scored 2 - one by a striker. Don't concede and we've nicked that game regardless of sitters missed!
