Shadwell Dog Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 (edited) Feck sake going from Rory Loy to Ryan Hardie would be like looking at a Ferrari and then actually getting a lada.

Rae didn't know how to play him , but he's always given us trouble with Raith ! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falkirk_Bairn_1983 Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 Hardie looks ok but there wouldn't be enough experience in there for me (obviously Miller but won't see much playing time). Still hopeful Loy will come back though! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Dufresne Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 31 minutes ago, Bainsfordbairn said: Is there a reliable source for this? The COYB page has what looks like a newspaper cutting with the words "Loy Handed Chance To Resurrect Dee Career". The cutting has no date and nothing to identify the newspaper. However, a check of the websites for the local Dundee papers - the Evening Telegraph & Courier - show no such headlines. There are various stories dated today, but none about Loy. The nearest you get to it is a story in the Courier in which Neill McCann talks about bringing in four or five, and also included the quote "there might be boys who won't be here for whatever reason". I think I'm smelling shite. Do you have info which can prove me wrong or are you just speculating based on the COYB post? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 Anyone else got a horrible feeling we're going to lose three or four of our first half-dozen games and be scrapping it out for a playoff place yet again? Still, this will no doubt please a large number of our shitebag fans. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting though that it doesn't include any definite statements along the lines of "He's going nowhere" or "He's my number one striker next year". And as often happens with newspapers, the headline writer takes a bit of poetic licence in order to grab your attention. That article doesn't close the door IMO. Whether we can tempt him out through a door that's ajar and fight off any other suitors remains the question for me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BountyBairn Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 So no big signing announced. What a bunch of utter let downs the 'ITKs' are. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No sense in that. St mirren punted him and replaced him with loy.we're going the other way. The whole loy thing is a simple rumour to make us look ambitious whilst we actually sign the same mediocrity.

Hardie altho ok in fits n starts is no better than what we have. Another 'meh' signing like Harris. No thanks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djchapsticks Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 Here's the hopeful timeline of events: Falkirk now move on to their next target, Lawrence Shankland who is paraded/rolled about the ground by the end of the week. Falkirk have decided that their striking options are now complete and focus on other areas. Loy then becomes available again after a combination of the adulation he recieves at St. Mirren Park next Tuesday and Dundee signing another forward, edging him out the door. St. Mirren swoop in for Rory. Everybody's happy! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bridge of allan bairn Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 The transfer window has been opened for ages now would it be too much to ask to get just one decent signing in before the early bird ends in 3 days time? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebobsboy Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 Think something similar, Houston puts all his eggs in one basket trying to get Loy, doesnt, signs someone inferior ie Hardie, just before McCann decides he doesnt fancy Loy, St.Mirren sign him just in time to play against us, and he scores the winner. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz FFC Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 3 more days of early bird tickets before they go up £25. They will be queuing round the stadium I'm sure. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Kinnear Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 I renewed mine the day after they went on sale as I always intended to anyway no matter who we bought. I'm not convinced we are going to get anyone in who will make folk rush out and renew. I hope and pray I'm wrong but not holding my breath. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
