EdiBairn Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 (edited) I think it's clear given the "exciting 10 days" promo that never happened that some(possibly all) of the players Hartley had offered contracts to have rejected us. I hope we haven't been chasing players who were never going to come and will now be left with even worse journeymen than the ones signed by Dunfermline and Morton etc. like Martin Woods.

We’ve not, he still has contract offers out to several English based players but don’t let that get in the way of your negative vandetta. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have a negative vandetta- it's a fact that some players have rejected us given no one was signed in that 10 day period. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got the entirety of the English lower leagues to choose from, I'm glad he's not hoovering up unwanted wastrels from this league. We've got enough of them already.

I know of 1, Vigurs, prior to the 10 day period. Who were the others if it’s fact? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FalkirkLad Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 If you went to the games you know they don’t refer themselves as Partick. Also, I don’t think he’s highly rated by anyone. Wouldn’t be enthralled with this signing at all. I go to the games with a family member why would I give a shit what they want to be referred as? From games I’ve seen and the people I spoke to the thought he could be a very decent player with them in the championship. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a manager says there's going to be an "exciting 10 days" that clearly indicates a number of signings are going to be made. No signings were made during that period- hence they fell through. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it’s not fact then, thanks for confirming what I thought.As PH said on Friday, we are fishing in a different pond and their is delays that go along with that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FalkirkLad Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Think you’re on your own with this one lad. From here maybe I am but Hartley hasn’t done anything during his stay with us to make me think he can’t spot a player. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony Fitzgerald Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 If we are going down the route of signing the majority of our players from the English market, lots of them are still contracted until the end of June, hence why it’s announced we’ve signed pre contracts with some of our signings so far.Whilst it doesn’t make ideal preparation for the first day of pre season, I’d rather take our time and get the right players in than panic and pick up the likes of Mark Durnan. Said it a few days ago but will leave it here again so folk can stop jobbying their pants. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But but but we’ve lost out on signing loads of Scottish championship players that Hartley said he wouldn’t be looking at.....[emoji6] 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I'll happily drive Loy to wherever he wants to go. Sent from my FIG-LX1 using Pie and Bovril mobile app He's still young but I'd agree he needs half a season minimum in a lower league being booted all over the pitch to 1) get momentum and 2) show he fancies putting in what's required to be a full time professional footballer. Maybe I'm being unfair but he seems very comfortable playing kids football, accumulating tattoos and getting blootered at the weekend. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Isn't looking too productive for you guys so far. Think a rope ladder thrown your way might be the only way you climb out of the bottom of this league. Least you'll have us as an inspiration. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not sure who you spoke to, but I don’t know a single Thistle fan who rated Martin Woods as a player in his half a season with us. Injury prone, sideways nothing passes, shite set pieces, pointing and shouting at others while not actually doing anything himself. In a relatable way to Falkirk fans, he’s a lesser Sean Welsh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
