Guest Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 I was encouraged yesterday at the performance. If they can get 4/5 in January and have the likes of Longridge, McManus and Gomis keep playing like that regularly I have hope. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The truth is out there Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 For years Falkirk have missed out on ex players that went on to be great managers so you never know with M&M FFC hold the world record for ex players that went onto manage their national team. The 7 are Bobby Brown-John Prentice-Willie Ormond-Andy Roxburgh-Alex Ferguson-Craig Brown-George Burley. Now that is a good pub question that tests your football knowledge,Ffs that’s a shite pub question. We do not hold the world record for ex players going on to manage national team. 5 mins on the internet and I found 8 ex Real Madrid players who’ve managed Spain. And I only checked as far back as the 1970’s. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the TV footage of the Telfer / Hendry tackle was interesting. Watch it again. After doing a triple roll with backflip and somersault, RH lies totally immobile on the ground for about six seconds. No movement at all. My goodness, he must be seriously hurt. At least until the red card is shown. Then he's up faster than a rat up a drainpipe and looking for a fight. One of our players should probably have been sent off for a bad tackle on Hendry at Kirkcaldy. I kind of got the impression that it was premeditated and designed to hurt him. I wonder why? I did hear rumours afterwards that Mr Hendry isn't exactly the nicest chap in the world. And now one of our least aggressive players gets sent off for a bad tackle on him. Hmmn. Maybe those rumours are true then. The next game will likely be tasty. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
champions Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 Was it hendry that was trying to get miller sent off when the ref took a tumble? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AL-FFC Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 Raith Number 22 i think someone said Bowie was doing his damdest to get Buchanan booked/sent off between the persistent fouling and the diving. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can definitely understand why he would get booted. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hartley did this and got rid of the likes of Kerr, Miller and Austin. Tidser looks like he's being left out in the cold, so wouldn't surprise me if they try it with him It wouldnt surprise me if Tidser's wage is made up with appearance add ons, for him not to make a sub appearance in recent weeks suggests that or we want shot of him 5 hours ago, inreganhendrywetrust said: “Best player on the park” Regan hendry was the best player by a mile Was he subbed at half time ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The highlights don’t show any of that, so I can’t comment on what Bowie was doing, but the yellow he got suggests he was doing something to gain the refs ire. Overall, as BPM noted, he’s extremely young and raw but shows a bucketful of promise/potential, and has been a clean player thus far this year. Not sure why he’d be nipping at heels for this game, unless it was the whole rash youth thing. He’s clearly going places, if he can avoid our injury curse, though hopefully not before June. I haven’t seen anything explaining why Gomis wasn’t starting, does anyone know why? When he came on, the whole flow of the game changed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Young players can blow hot and cold, yesterday was obviously a cold moment, the irk that went about yesterday was that it took 7 or 8 fouls till he got booked. Someone had suggested Gomis was carrying a knock, on the other hand he hadnt really performed all that great in the last two games which id put down to formation change 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He certainly made a huge difference when he came on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 Definitely an improvement in application yesterday. Won’t take much for M&M to figure out who’s on board, and who’s pining for a non demanding life with McKinnon. Throwing them overboard is going to be the difficult bit. Yet another season where we are trying to keep in touch until January. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ref had warned him he was watching him. if the lad has indeed talent then there should be no need for him to be diving or persistent fouling to try and get other players booked/sent off/ awarded free kicks, although it does seem part of the game these days and i dare say i have to bare in mind it is league one but i dont think he would get away with it if thats part of his game should the lad move on to a higher division/standard.. There were a few incidents where we had a corner and he had a shove on Dixon, not to mention his theatrics with Buchanan. I think one his of digs on Dixon is on the Falkirk TV highlights edge of the box. Edited December 15, 2019 by AL-FFC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wullie robb Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 Getting away from yesterday, It's clear we need a few in January and with money likely to be tight ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairney The Dinosaur Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 It will no doubt me cheap loans. Last night there was pub talk about a centre half on loan from Carlisle. That's where we are just now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocco Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 From what I was told yesterday the only funds are going to be through wheeling and dealing. Are M&M capable ?As I said earlier, I think they'll try and get some players to find other clubs so they can free up wages. Tidser's wage would likely allow for two players to come in 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 Wonder how BSLM is regarded at Livi and whether there is anyone there he could tempt with some football. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
