Obviously funny to read but season ticket holders above no coming back because they can't handle it about sums them up. Pitiful stuff on and off the park. A few might start going to see Stenny.

I was all for giving him as much time as he needed, in fact I was for giving him a longer contract than the 6 months to let him have a summer transfer window but that has changed. The football is absolutely awful, team selections and the continual 3 5 2 set up plus the persistence of trying to play out from the back with players who aren’t capable has convinced me he isn’t the man for the job.

Why do guys like you come on here and tell us how we should be feeling and how we should be reacting? You don’t watch us, we are a fucking embarrassment. Nobody expects us to turn into world beaters overnight but when the manager picks the wrong team, asks a team of absolute scudbooks to try and build from the back despite losing the ball in our half every single time, plays the wrong formation, makes awful substitutions and has a poorer win record than the guy that’s just been sacked then we have every right to question whether he is the right person for the job. Hope that clarifies things for you. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of frustration. Things have actually gotten as bad (and possibly worse) than at any point this season (QP 6-0 excluded of course). The biggest issue is seeing Rennie apparently grasping at straws in terms of team selection. It is all over the place. It is almost impossible to figure out what he is trying to do. It’s not that performances are inconsistent. Everything seems to be all over the place. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm seeing people talking about wanting to replace Rennie immediately. After 10 games. Just now, Gaz said: Do you think it is really beyond comprehension that a manager can be identified as being hopelessly out of his depth after only a couple of months? Absolutely not, no. I do think managers who join a struggling club mid-season, with clear issues with the squad, deserve more than 10 games and a January window to show what they can do before being written off though. Theres plenty of managers who need to build their own squad to have success. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With all due respect you don't have the pleasure of watching us week in week out. He's signed 6 players which is more than half of your starting 11 and we've taken 11 points out of a possible 30. The performances aren't getting any better not even slightly and for all 10 of the games we've played the same formation for the full game regardless of what the score was or how we were playing which shows an extreme lack of adaptability. He was only signed on a 6 month deal so us talking about next steps isn't exactly groundbreaking news. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He signed 6 players to make it more balanced which he hasn’t done in the slightest And his stubborn 352 is beyond useless, making like for like subs with 5 mins to go summer him up tonight.

Falkirkfan1985 Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 Another nonsense interview. He clearly watched a complete different game to me. From where I was sitting we were overrun and slow in midfield. 2nd to every ball and couldn't put more than 3 passes together 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unused sub Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 Peterhead players all looked tidy and comfortable on the ball except for the number 4 who really should take up wrestling, how he got to the latter stages of the game before he got booking was unbelievable. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tea and Busquets Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 (edited) That interview is one of the worst I’ve heard from a Falkirk manager. If that first half was good then I’m incredibly worried. Also, when asked about the change in formation he basically said we don’t have the players to play a different system, well why not sign the players you need for the system you want to play?

I get this point of view, but he's still come in and brought in half a team of his own players. He also arrived at a point when the play-offs were more than achievable, which if you get into them on a string of form, you can easily get through them and get promoted, especially with how they are set up in the lower leagues. A full-time Falkirk, with the biggest budget in the third tier, basically writing off their season in February, is unacceptable.

He’s spunking £1500 a week on a striker ffs, he’s not been told to write anything off. A good manager plays a “style” that suits the players at his disposal so stop talking shite. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Russ Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 Good to love it when fans of other teams who have not seen us play come and try and tell us how wrong we are to have these opinions. We’ve got a manager who’s got 1 tactic only and refuses to change from it regardless of the personnel available, his substitutions always make us worse, he’s incapable of changing a game in our favour, the style of play is abysmal, certain players play every week regardless of how they played the week before and our squad is still just as unbalanced as it was before January.What from that list suggests that we should keep in charge? Why does it make a difference if he’s been at the club 2 months or 2 years when he’s behaving and showing the above traits? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
