The Falkirk FC Thread


Recommended Posts

Charlie Telfer can get himself to f**k btw. There’s no doubt there’s talent there but he’s still a massive shitebag and he only turns up when he wants to and it’s generally against the shite in the league. I’ve no doubt he could go somewhere and be a success but he’s been here 3 years and we’ve yet to have a functional midfield with him in the side.

Still never forgiven him for that red card against Raith tbh.
Yeah that day is his defining contribution in a Falkirk Jersey. A day that could conceivably have put us on the path out of this league at the first time of asking.

Still get the fear looking at what's left

If I was forced to keep some out of that list as squad players which we will probably have too, I would keep McCann, McGuffie and Malcolm obviously as he has just signed. Watson too as he is injured, the rest are pretty much free to go for me if they wanted. Morrison maybe as well but if he left that would be fine.

It’s obviously going to take quite a bit of cash to persuade some of those players to leave and cancel their contracts.

Seems a pity to have to use our next seasons playing budget for that.

I think it would be a great idea to try to seek funds specifically for that purpose.

When asking folks to pay for ST’s why not have a separate section on the form for ‘Contracted players’ severance’

Im sure quite a few folks would stump up some extra cash for such a purpose.

I appreciate it’s not for everyone but quite a few may well be happy to contribute.

If so, count me in.

Is that Jamie Wilson that was at Dumbarton? If so a 2 year deal for him is possibly one of the worst deals ever done. 

Brad McKay 3 year deal imo.

Wilson as a back up wing back? Naw

I wonder if Mcglynn will get more from Brad McKay, clutching at straws but you can’t play that many games at a higher level and be a poor as he has been so far….surely??? 😂

Thank the messiah that is Gary Holt for that one. Tried to publicly suggest he was a better option than Dowds too. If any club has their head screwed on, that c**t won’t get another job in football.

14 players released today. if it is mcglynn and he replaces those 14 with decent players the dross left could be frozen out. I'm happy enough with morrison, Watson,  mccann etc too so could put together a decent first 17 or 18 and that's before he might get a tune out of 1 or 2 current underperformers.  hopefully a few will decide to move on if told not in plans. would love holts son gone first. should never have got a contract

Unless McGlynn can teach him how to defend, how to pass a ball and how to win a header a ball then I highly doubt it imo.

Ken it’s not our business to care anymore, but I’m still slightly curious as to where Griffiths will end up. Part of me thinks he might get a lower-end Championship team based on reputation alone - the other part of me thinks he’s completely finished at any sort of decent level.

re Jaime Wilson I saw him in one of the pre season trialist games at stirling University and came on here and stated before he signed he didn't look like a footballer and we should not sign him. I wouldn't normally do that but he was like a fish out of water. the fact he got a 2 year contract made me lose confidence in sheerin and Holt immediately. hindsight is a great thing but this wasn't hindsight

You're asking for too much there. If Brad Mckay's one of our starting centre backs next year we may as well pack it in.

To be fair Sheerin even criticised him for those trialist appearances, then he was handed a 2 year deal through sheer panic.

Funnily enough, I recall you saying that.

On the money.
