Look at Raith's injury issues and see we've employed their Head of sports science.

They have had guys like Vaughan never on the pitch as well as Lang and Spencer barely on the pitch under this geezers reign of terror. 

Prefer us to sign another player than a Head of performance.

that's about as daft as blaming his predecessor for us being in league one for 5 seasons, made worse by the comment about sacrificing an essential member of the backroom team for a player.

Most likely I think Mcglynn will play the same team for Dundee Utd that started against Alloa. I would possibly be tempted to drop Ageyman play Ross out wide and then McKenna in the 10. With tait and Nesbitt behind. McKenna would give us a more physical presence in the midfield.  Dk if it was just me but wasn’t that impressed with Agyeman against Alloa. Thought honeyman done more in the time he got that Alfie im afraid.

Agyeman killed their left back for our second goal which got him an assist. I also think, from memory, he had a big part to play in the first goal too. He was one of our better players.

Now is the time to seek investment from the fans who can afford to do so 

Falkirk turning to fans for money to keep things going as they want? Can't see it. 

Not the Falkirk way. Wait...

So what’s your thoughts on this Falkirk Fans? No-one doubts you turn out in great numbers for your team, but do you see this as a concern?

Totally a concern. As expected, the usual responses get trotted out about clubs like yourselves maintaining grass - without determining what acceptable standard is - or how "top" leagues don't allow it - without the context that their resources and distribution model allow them that luxury!

It should also be noted with interest how Rangers current predicament is handled and what flexibility will be afforded to those promoted teams who choose to carry out the works when needed.

It's also went very quiet on the mooted UEFA endorsed specialists. It's not like Scottish football to miss out on the opportunity of an easy PR win and talk-up the work being done to enhance the reputation of the top flight - Isn't that what this is meant to be about ... 🤷‍♂️

Might explain the lack of signings since that vote.

Does anyone know the position with the budget? I'd have thought ST sales would have exceeded expectations 

Did manager not say in FH he’d spent his budget? Positive season ticket sales probably help cover the usual stretch in the budget. Also as a few people have said, the impact on walk-ups is unknown at this stage.

I still have high hopes for Alfie. I think there's a really good player there.

Not a fan of Alfie but I think that he would more effective as a powerhouse running at defenders in the centre of the pitch, not out on the wing. His displays last season away against Partick and Kelty spring to mind.

I'd happily stay in the Championship if it meant financial stability and a club that is viable. That might be a terrible view but if it is that or liquidation there is only one choice.

We still need to fight this though, ultimately, UEFA are the custodians of the game in Europe so if the pitch is UEFA compliant it has to be good enough.

On a personal level I'd ditch the plastic in a heartbeat but not at the expense of the club's future

Arguably when it’s expedited to an external source there’s alway a mark up. I’ve no idea how this has been set up with the club, ie are the club/council both getting a cut etc.

If what others are posting, I’m assuming it’s a large increase to last years prices.
