Big chungus Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 How much do you reckon we'll get for CM7 at the end of the season then? 150k plus add ons? Or maybe in the region of 50-100k? I have accepted if we get a decent offer in for him and the player wants to go he will go. Hopefully we could maybe bank some of the money and buy Jack Hamilton from Livi. Granted we would have to be in the championship. Also really hopes Kennedy stays. He's had his best season with us still only 20 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthStander1876 Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 Wonder if he'd take a new contract if we got up. Huge player for us 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As with this year, any available cash will go to the squad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthStander1876 Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 Unless this mystery manager is just shadowing the team. Can't see us wasting a wage on someone who could just leave 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairn in Exile Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 At the risk of being hit with another salvo of reddies, but for the sake of the football club that I love, I’m prepared to stick my head above the parapet once more! Would FSS be legally allowed to access Falkirk FC’s ST mailing list to allow them to do a targeted mail drop appealing for members? And, this is really pushing the envelope, but if we are able to access this mailing list, I wonder if there was some way that people would have to opt out of joining FSS instead of having to opt in? Try to make it an integral part of buying a season ticket? This could maybe be done in conjunction with I think @Bigbrbairn's idea of paying for your ST monthly. Even successful business people (which I’m not) occasionally have bad ideas! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As opposed to us bringing in another member of non playing staff. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthStander1876 Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 A much better idea than your last. STs were £320 last year, put the cost up to £330 and have the option to keep it at £320. Or keep it at £320 and £10 of each sale goes to FSS? Cant see people paying £120 extra over a year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Springfield Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 (edited) Down at the stadium shop earlier, quite surprised with the numbers in for Ayr tickets. Just a suggestion, what about an additional large advertising board dedicated to the FSS and the need for subscription? Ideally placed on the Grangemouth and Bog roads ?

This is where a good assistant comes into things. In Peter Taylor's book about his time with Brian Clough set out. Clough: Get me an X,Y,Z type player Taylor: Goes and selects a short list. Clough - Taylor: Watch them and decide the one they want. The example Taylor gave was Clough wanted a leader on the park and he came up with Dave McKay Jeffries and Brown did something similar in their recruiting. Player signings should be the managements teams selection then hand over to the board to do the money side of things. Holt's shambles should exclude there being a DoF at the club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's on loan at Hartlepool for some reason of convenience. They have a contract to sign him at season's end. Although not scoring many he seems to have done well down there. I'm not even sure if they have an option to not take him permanently but can't imagine they won't do anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That level of increase does not even keep pace with inflation therefore is a real term reduction in income. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
