roman_bairn Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 This must be the most fucking stupid set of people running a football club in history. This almost reads like the Dennon Lewis accusation, once again attacking the very people who will make or break the future of the club.I can only assume that this is Ritchie and the remaining members of the boards’s last stand, as any possibility of building bridges, however remote they already were, have been completely burned with that load of shite masquerading as a statement.Here’s a statement for the board...f**k off out of OUR club.You’ve done near terminal damage, but don’t even have the humility to recognise it, instead somehow thinking that it’s all the supporters fault.You are not welcome anywhere near in future. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AL-FFC Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 Whilst we have to thank them for rescuing the club from liquidation you have to ask yourself was there any need to release that statement, it didnt need to be said so why the f**k on earth would you come out with a statement like that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BottiBiabi Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 To me, the statement read “we’ve done what you want and Campbell’s away, show us yer money now please” 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We used to have a lady - a volunteer of course - who was quite heavily involved in the PR side at one time. It was her day job and she'd been doing it for some time at high level in a number of companies. I remember pulling her up when Chairman Brexit was doing his bull in a china shop impersonation. Her defence was the she could only advise, not dictate, and that some people in the boardroom always felt they knew better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hughsie Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 Sales have obviously been slow so far this week. I won’t be back until every single one of them is away. Even then, I might not bother. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AL-FFC Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 (edited) Great they managed to make BBC sport news, they better start hoping one of those bids sets them free but i think they would rather let the club suffer than admit any blame on themselves: https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/48521558 not to mention the Record:https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/falkirk-chief-quits-relegated-bairns-16255961 with a statement like that they really are'nt endearing the club to any potential investors either ffs Edited June 4, 2019 by AL-FFC 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Poet of the Macabre Posted June 4, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 4, 2019 There is no way Martin Ritchie - or the person that actually wrote that - didn't know the reaction it would cause among Falkirk supporters. They've already got a tough job on their hands to build fences with the fans and try to shift some STs. They've just witnessed an all-time dreadful season, with a club that should be pushing for the top flight, crashing into the Seaside Leagues. Maybe there's nothing they could do that would convince some to open their pockets but plenty would be talked around with the right gestures and some decent signings. Instead, they've taken a flamethrower and burned those fences to dust. A quite unbelievable move, which is, at best, staggeringly misguided. 22 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rugster Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 The baldy snake went last week and they’ve held the announcement to see how badly season ticket sales went and released it now because they’ve fallen off a cliff. Not actually a bad strategy. Unfortunately they’ve miserably failed in the delivery of the statement and their only real talent seems to be that they are outstanding at making things continually worse. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utter freak. Found any evidence for this claim yet? Or was it perhaps just made up rubbish, because you can't handle someone laughing at a football club you like? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'Jaffo Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 Never a great move for a club to shift the blame onto the fans when they need to shift season tickets. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roman_bairn Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 Never a great move for a club to shift the blame onto the fans when they need to shift season tickets. To do it once is incompetent. To do it twice is entirely intentional, and once again our supporters are going to be badly portrayed in the media.These people are doing our club severe harm and need to go NOW! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
