Michael Gillen from the Falkirk Herald was there today so more pics will appear over the coming days. I don't think squad numbers mean much but if anyone's interested I'll put them up. Everyone will see them once the games start anyway. I’m a nerd for things like squad numbers. would you be able to put them up? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NavyBlueArmy1876 Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 (edited) Swinney said we'd have the 3rd or 4th biggest budget in the league. And that was before selling 500 season tickets more than our target by June. I reckon that will be 2 clubs from Livingston, Dunfermline, Raith and Partick. Ayr are investing a bit of cash and will no doubt be a much better side than the terrible one we played in the cup over the last couple of seasons but can't see them as being one of the leagues big spenders or title challengers. They have managed to trebuchet that big dumpling McGinty over to Hamilton though so who knows Edited June 17 by NavyBlueArmy1876 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PedroMoutinho Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 Can’t read too much into squad numbers but it doesn’t look like Allan’s part of the plans going by his number. Hopefully there’s interest in him and that will free up some funds for an additional striker (possibly on loan). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One off poster Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 (edited) The squad numbers are a bit all over the place so it would be daft to look too much into them..... So as a dafty, I wonder if there's anything in Scott Honeyman being no.20 while the other outfield apprentices are all in the 30's. Edit: just looked at the squad numbers again and Honeyman is 30. I am a dafty right enough. Edited June 17 by One off poster 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shodwall cat Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 16 hours ago, Grangemouth Bairn said: Ayr have signed 6 players including Scott McMann today who had a very good season for Dundee United last season. They appear to have one of the bigger budgets in the league. He was god awful that night at TFS mind you when we could've put 7 or 8 past them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairney The Dinosaur Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 There might still be some budget available, but I wouldn't be expecting anything to change in the squad (other than maybe JA going out) until the last week of August and beyond now. A lot can happen in the early part of the season though. One of the young guys could really prove themselves and knock a suspected first team player down the pecking order who then wants away for game time, a player McGlynn didn't expect to be available suddenly is, a bid comes in, or (fingers crossed it doesn't happen) serious injury/poor start means that reinforcements are required. Think it is a wise tactic to have almost everything done now, but keep a little bit of something back just in case. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So loads of time yet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ilostmyself Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 (edited) I think it's wise to see how this team copes in the championship before spending much of the additional ST money. That'll only bring a bit of parity to us and the budgets of the other teams in the division. I think we should look at a top half finish as a real success this year and if that's not looking likely we should save some budget for January.

I can't work out why Allan has number 72 when 15, 16 and 17 are all available. Even the apprentices have lower numbers! It's either a Rangers thing or he is that far out the picture he is only training because he's still under contract 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HopeStreetWalker Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 The last Hibs player before Dylan Tait loaned to then signed by Falkirk was Dougie Moran also 22 who went onto score the winning goal in the 1957 Scottish Cup Final. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's either a Rangers thing or he is that far out the picture he is only training because he's still under contract Think it's been mentioned before (speculatively, but also probably correctly in my opinion) that 7 + 2 = 9 and it's 72 as opposed to say 81 or 63 because it used to be a rangers thing and he's as in denial as much as their other supporters.

A lot of the loans from the top league generally happen August onwards. We will have had around a dozen games in by the middle of August to see if our squad needs a loan in to cover a specific position, Bisland and Ross were exactly that. Can we still get loans in September in the championship? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
