I had a wee boy and quite frankly the missus wouldn't let me disappear every Saturday just now. He will be able to attend soon though so that will sort that out. Anything else? You don't need to justify it. We all make choices, you chose not to go. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what you are saying though I take it they have a few guys that have ripped up this league and played at a higher level before ? What type of money do they have behind them ? They have some great players, I really like Mitch Megginson and whilst he was fairly guff in the SPL and Championship he's now looking like a striker bursting with confidence. He'll score goals in League 1 no problem. Jamie Masson and Broque Watson another couple of great players, as well as the obvious Fyvie. They'll have no problem signing players either, even if they are loans - they've used that very well in the past with the likes of Glass, Smith and Antoniazzi. They're sponsored by an oil company, so finances take care of themselves to that end. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkey Tennis Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 Well this has been a fun little read. A question for the more sane Falkirk fans, of whom there are plenty: Are these Dafties shouting about boycotts and suchlike, overspill from the fabled 'One F'? It used to be cited on here as home to less intelligent elements. It looks to me like some have been imported. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it's suddenly all about how many fans can't watch you play. Good point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falkirk09Bairn Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 I think the picking on Shadwell is grossly unfair. He seems to be the most principled Falkirk poster. @Shadwell Dog will confirm that he’s no longer attending SPFL football of any sort. Maybe @Monkey Tennis should consider that before diving in. While I don’t agree with it personally it’s much more rationale than acting like a spoilt bairn and attempting to punish sides that you believe have wronged you. Just to make sure I’m correct, it is you @Shadwell Dog who said you’re done with SPFL football? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether I'm at TFS again soon will depend on whether my young boy wants to go along. Who knows what the football landscape will be like in 6 months time anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, it's (quite obviously) about about how many fans can contribute to a club's survival. Swing & miss. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HopeStreetWalker Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 Well we now know the day of reckoning for those employed by the club has been put back to the end of June. Government picking up the tab so FFC are doing the decent thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Government paying 80% FFC 20% but it is the right thing to do in the circumstances . Gives the employees a bit of certainty till the end of June at least. If no certainty or a restart date then its club hibernation. Can't see any other option other than cut costs and survive. The way things are going many players will leave the game for good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
