I trust Ray will have already backed up his words in the post-match interview on Saturday by informing "Super Aero" that he's played his last game for the club. I think the chance of Aaron leaving the club is higher than it was before Saturday but still very unlikely. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have actually had a closer look at the ownership scheme and it sounds better than I had feared. Primarily because the fans paying a tennner a month won't actually be able to control anything because of the presence of the patrons. On that basis, I will be supporting it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you telling me that my ten (10) pounds per calendar month doesnt buy me a full say in the day to day running of a professional football club??I am out. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It won't buy you any say because these fans will only own one third of the shares(and voting rights). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairnardo Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 Robson is good enough to play wide left, especially given the lack of decent left wingers. Muirhead isn't a right back and is a bombscare at centre half. If any of the two are getting emptied for being shite it'll be Muirhead. If Robson leaves it'll be because he's been sold or found another club. IMO (in my opinion) Saturday showed that guys like Paul Dixon can hopefully improve the squad. Had we been able to go Dixon LB Robson LM there is probably a semblance of a reasonably (or at least more) solid left side of the team there.Need to be careful of the Andy Robertson theory with Robson though that because he can bomb past people from deep he can automatically be a winger. Its often not the case. That said, those two would work ok and provide decent balance I think. Ray has banged on about width for long enough though so I would be surprised if Robson LM is the plan. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the top end of making £200,000 from that game, which I feel is a stretch, the playing budget works out at £1.1m.

Our turnover last year was just short of £2.8 million. At the AGM they said the playing budget was around 60% of turnover.

Whatever the argument about numbers, £800k is an average wage of £700pw for 22 first team players. I have my doubts that you pay on average more than Motherwell who have a substantially higher turnover. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 A former Falkirk employee is cutting about suggesting McKinnon is getting a budget of 400k all in, for signings, signing on fees, wages and dross removal.Thoughts?Is it enough?Nothing like that amount.We had under 550k in the bank at the AGM 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairn Necessities Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 I think McGhee gets a pretty easy ride to be honest. He's been abysmal this season. Only had the heat taken off him by Harrison and co being worse 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only had the heat taken off him by Harrison and co being worse Whilst that is true I feel personally that I know he is a level where we dont need to empty and replace him. He has done some stupid shit for sure but it is hard to defend when there isnt anything protecting you or any protection beside or behind you. Thats certainly why I give him an easier time although he was fucking rancid on Saturday by any measure 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
