Harry Kinnear Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 I believe 75% of the fans funding cash is now raised in one day and nearly 20% of the Patron pledges. What an effort in 24hrs. The Navy Blue dollar talking As in our time of need in the late 90's, when the Bairns need us we are there.Great support. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great guy and a change is probably what he needs, should’ve happened in tbe summer imo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you get the Muirhead from this season, you may not be impressed. That being said, you'll never miss a penalty again. Muirheads always been murder. He's just even worse now than ever. He should've been punted after he cost us the playoff semi against United. Great guy to have on the bench and bring on in the 5th minute of injury time to take a pen but thats about it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Aye, after missing a penalty in probably the best challenge cup final I can remember [emoji38]Yeah whatever has happened we must never forget that he punched a *** squarely in the dick. That was unbelievably class. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony Fitzgerald Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Think Aero needs a change. A fresh approach somewhere might get him back to being a competent defender at this level. If he goes to Ayr it would free up a wage and may help get his career back on track. Would be a good move for all involved I’d say. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavyBlueArmy1876 Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 I wouldn't object to Muirhead being moved on tbh. The number of times he'll misplace a 5 yard pass in a game is utterly infuriating. Maybe he needs a fresh challenge and Ayr would be a decent move for him imo 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairney The Dinosaur Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 I’ve not much issue with Muirhead tbh. He’s a steady defender for this level with the added bonus of a good penalty. Nothing more, nothing less. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairnardo Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 I’ve not much issue with Muirhead tbh. He’s a steady defender for this level with the added bonus of a good penalty. Nothing more, nothing less. Was a steady defender. This season he has looked disinterested and lacking in concentration. The one that aummed it up for me was in the Pars game when he returned a throw in the the thower from about 6 yards away by volleying it straight over their head then just wandered off. Hes been doing that all season. When he moved into the central 3 defenders I thought it might mask his deficiencies but it didnt. I dont hate Muirhead. He really stepped up last season, but as others have said its not working for him here anymore and it will continue to cost us. McKinnon is changing things because he needs to and unfortunately I think Muirhead has to be one of those changes. He dick punched a *** and leathered Jimmy Craigen though so he goes with my warmest regards. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilostmyself Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 He's an enigma, no doubting his passion at all which has rightfully endeared him to a lot of the support. His biggest quality is probably that he doesn't hide in games and always wants the ball, this is also one of his weaknesses as he can't complete a 5 yard pass. I think if you have someone decent next to him and get him to do the simple stuff that a defender does then he'll be a good signing for this level. Playing him at RB for so long was criminal though and led to so many wasted moves as he aimlessly launched the ball forward or passed it to the opposition. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shodwall cat Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 The last Dunfermline game his performance was one of the worst I've seen from a Falkirk Captain in many year. Feck all passion. Second goal he stood and watched as the boy toed it in the net. There wasnt one bit of aggression and attempt to drive the team on. It as embarrassing and I'd be quite happy never to see him in the navy blue again after that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavyBlueArmy1876 Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 If Muirhead has been enquired about, hopefully he wasn't included in the 3 players supposedly going this week (one being Dallison) as I'd be disappointed to see Fasan or Paton survive this window. If that can free up and extra wage we can use to get a right back in it's a great bit of business for us 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PipoIsABairn Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 I guess the other point to make is that if Ayr are genuinely interested then that makes it easier for McKinnon to deal. He's gonna have trouble clearing too many more now with straight up pay-offs so i'd imagine that it's easier to negotiate if a player has a club willing to take them. I'd be surprised if Muirhead chose to stay in that situation given he was dropped for the Ayr game and will likely see that as a sign of things to come. If it's a choice between Muirhead leaving for free or Harrison being paid to go then i'd guess that the club would take that even if Muirhead is the better player when playing well. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roman_bairn Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Id be extremely upset over this. Captain fantastic, probably the best penalty taker I’ve ever seen in my lifetime. Excellent at throw ins. One of our top goal scorers from last year. Steady at right-back but much better when moved over to his actual position (ball playing centre half).Also punched a *** in the baws. Personally I think if Ayr are looking to go up, Aaron ‘Aero’ Muirhead would become a key player in the promotion bid. Very upset to hear this. Brilliant! Absolutely convinced this is a fabulously disguised whoosh SB. Ian McCall probably on the phone right now....Nevertheless, he’s a player I think that a lot of fans will remember when he leaves with affection. Not because he’s a great player...hell no! But he always gives 110%, sometimes with the most calamitous outcome that you gotta laugh.... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boaby The Bairn Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 I’d be sad to see Aero go - not everyone’s cup of tea (understandably) and has a shocker in him (Dunfermline). But seems like an honest bloke and always puts in a proper shift, chasing down lost causes and putting himself about which seems surprisingly rare. Hes not been great this season but would rather have him in our current predicament than not. Plus he hits a thunderc*nt of a pen and that really gets my blood flowing so it does. 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muirhead's beyond abysmal performance against Dunfermline is hopefully the last we have seen of him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawson Park Boy Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Delighted if he goes. he finds it impossible to make a pass , long or short, to a teammate. Apart from penalty taking he is completely useless. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
