spratte Posted September 20 Share Posted September 20 23 hours ago, Blame Me said: Not wishing to piss on most posters chips but it seems to be conveniently forgotten that we were struggling to fund the mens first team and academy not that long ago. Now it seems we're flush with funds to support another team within the Falkirk FC setup by crowdfunding it alongside the FSS, which still does not have the majority of the fan base as members. The pie can only be cut so many ways and you can only go to the well so many times before it runs dry! I'm all for the womens team and there has to be a solution found but simply saying that it should transfer to the remit of the football club is misguided IMO. We’re taking about buying them kits and paying their bus fees not building them a fourth stand. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavyBlueArmy1876 Posted September 20 Share Posted September 20 (edited) Surely the sum of money we are talking about for the season is <£10k. We aren't talking about paying them professional wages or even expenses. It is literally to buy some kit and run a bus to away games which is the minimum I'd expect the Foundation to be providing, but sounds like that is not the case Also we are no longer running at a £400k deficit. We were projected to break even before the Celtic game and will make a tidy profit this season if we dont spend that money Edited September 20 by NavyBlueArmy1876 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FFC 1876 Posted September 20 Share Posted September 20 10 hours ago, Higgenarse said: I heard a rumour that he is coming on short term loan until January. Probably rubbish Would be a weird one having Rhys Walker out on loan and bringing in another 18 year old winger from another club so I doubt this rumour is true. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FFC 1876 Posted September 20 Share Posted September 20 Liked the Luke of him against us last season for Montrose, big physical left sided centre back. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham's left sided though. If Donaldson's out we'll have 3 left sided guys, would have made more sense to sign someone right footed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s left sided so wouldn’t think it would be related to Donaldson. I reckon this is just to add centre half depth, which is what we were all asking for a few weeks ago 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
18BAIRN76 Posted September 20 Share Posted September 20 Good signing. If I’m being very greedy I’d like another option up front, but maybe not likely. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gav-ffc Posted September 20 Share Posted September 20 At times McCann has been the only defender on the bench so a very sensible signing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally though, I think Coll's been struggling a bit all season, I think he's been playing through it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PedroMoutinho Posted September 20 Share Posted September 20 Makes sense to give us more depth in defence. Would like another striker in though as still feel it’s the position where one injury would leave us in trouble. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Springfield Posted September 20 Share Posted September 20 Sensible to have this cover, obviously throws up a couple of questions over Coll/Lang. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Latapy is god Posted September 20 Share Posted September 20 5 hours ago, BPM said: The manager has stated on numerous occasions his aim was to tie up players he already had on longer contracts than bring in extra bodies. That is his choice not restrictions on him. https://www.falkirkfc.co.uk/2024/09/20/luke-graham-signs-loan-deal/ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
