JS_FFC Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 Most “sit on the fence” prediction but I think we’ll finish between 3rd and 7th 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavyBlueArmy1876 Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 I think we'll be 3rd or 4th. Raith will finish above us and probably two from Partick, Livingston & Dunfermline. Big spenders Hamilton and Ayr best of the rest. Queens Park and Airdrie scrabbling to avoid 9th. Morten down. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That guy McGlynn will revert to shoulder shrugging and a stuttering mess in his post match interviews after being jumped by the Pars. Mark my words.

Absolute nonsense, you have been in the seaside league for years and you think you will be 3rd or 4th ? We made 4th last year and you think we will drop 5 places? I have missed this big time FFC patter ! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have missed this big time FFC patter ! To be fair I think it’s going to be possible for any team to be scrambling about 9th. Going to be a difficult league to call, however, I do think we’ll see at least one team drastically underperform and find themselves bottom early on. I just hope it’s not us 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finish above Partick and you will win the league. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At a recent Bairns business club event Jamie Swinney spoke to everyone in attendance & estimated our budget would be around 4th or 5th highest out of the 10 for the season ahead. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So Raith with their dodgy backers, Livingston with prize money and parachute payment, Queens with SFA cash and Hamilton with wealthy owners. Must have bigger budgets than the minks Airdrie, Dunfermline and Morton. Not sure about Partick and Ayr although they seem to have cash to burn 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would assume two would definitely be Livi and Raith. Beyond that it's hard to tell. QP are obviously bank rolled heavily. Rumour is that Ayr will have a significant budget this year. Don't think Thistle will have an overly massive budget. Ditto the Pars. Hamilton are always a wild card financially. Ourselves and Morton definitely down the bottom end budget wise. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have missed this big time FFC patter ! We nearly won the league on our first year in the Championship after going up, then came very close to 9th this past season after looking like bankers for automatic relegation for a long time. I think Airdrie will be fine but there are no guarantees in this division. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genuinely curious about how your board knows what 9 other clubs' budget will be? I know you said it was an estimate, but that sounds more like wild guesswork to me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are your expectations for this season, is it the normal happy with 8th place or go for it with the possibility of promotion it looks pretty open this season and. Should be a cracker.. Hopefully we will finish comfortably in mid table and with bit luck possibly edging into the playoffs. Only thing that is certain for next season is Hamilton will have the best squad in the championship. Edited June 2 by grumpyoldman 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have missed this big time FFC patter ! Don't think it's personal beyond estimating finances which at this time is all we can go on prediction wise. No doubt you overperformed based on budget as a result of some clearly excellent management and team building by McCabe but it's hard to say how long that continues. Based on guesses at the minute but it does look like you and Morton will have the lowest finances so before any recruitment has happened that is all it can be based on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We knew where we were last year (3rd biggest budget in league one) because of boards speaking to each other about it I believe so I assume it's the same thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting. The people running Queen's Park don't tell us anything, so I'd be surprised if they were sharing that sort of info with other clubs, but they probably just don't deem us fans worthy enough to care about! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
