If only we could pinpoint where it’s all going wrong… Ridiculously early to be coming out with this sort of patter. The transfer window is not even open yet! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 Why is everyone getting on the case of BPM? All the guy has done is put some money in and given his opinion. He’s not Gary fucking Holt FFS. He better fucking not be.... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadwell Dog Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 It's no secret that sheerin and Holt had been looking at players before the decision to sack sheerin was taken. I would presume ATS was one they were looking at. The guys been unattached so I would presume he's been in and about the club so that Rennie can have a look at him and see whether he is interested in him or not. He obviously then decided he would take him and he's signed up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t know him personally at all but he is clearly a football and falkirk man through and through. But I will continue to try and stop any revision of what Holt does - he is clearly instrumental in recruitment (which after Summer is baffling) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reggie Perrin Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 (edited) Any realistic hope of winning the league is long gone but we absolutely must be getting into the promotion playoffs. Most likely the Championship team in the playoffs will be one of Morton, QoS or the Fifers.* Three shades of shite and not to be feared. Just the small matter of us getting our act together in the meantime. *Forgot about Ayr every bit a shite as the others.

Neither of those scenarios is remotely acceptable because in the first scenario he has proven himself incompetent and damaging, and in the second one, wer a league 1 clusterfuck shelling out a massive wage to someone who cant be trusted to do their job, at a direct cost to the pkaykng budget. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if a miracle happened and they did, there’s no chance of winning them - 3 rounds of wins against teams far better. Not a cats in hell chance. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Back Post Misses Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 1 hour ago, JulioBairn said: Holy f**k. Rennie picks from the players presented to him by the DOF. That’s the model. That’s our famous infrastructure. If being faced with the decision to sign a player or stick with the shit he’s got he’s going to sign a player all day long. It’s the quality that is being presented to him that’s the problem. We know what Martindale did at Livi and to be quite honest we don’t give a f**k. It’s what Holt is doing here that’s the problem. Holt is a disaster. I know it, you know it and your patron pals know it. You have gone from criticising Holt and the club at every opportunity to splitting hairs and looking for loopholes and IMO you are losing credibility by the minute. I have consistently stated all along Holt should be gone. I even went on a podcast and said it the day Sheerin was sacked. I have not changed my mind and won’t his track record is awful. I trust those making the decisions at the club now, bearing in mind they have all the facts. Now my relationship with them gives me that confidence, I understand that, and probably would be as seething as you seem to be without it. We want to see the same thing to happen. Hopefully it is a matter of timing, I have no idea either way. I say again Martin Rennie is not flying 3500 miles and recruiting Kenny Miller as his assistant to be signing players he doesn’t think are good enough or what he needs and wants. Again I have been consistent with that view. If Holt was the person who flagged him up - does it really matter? He would not have been signed without MR and KM wanting him. That is all that matters. If he is rotten then it is on their heads. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadwell Dog Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 Jaime Wilson back. Jesus wept perhaps we could do a special loan deal of him and Holt's son on a 2 for the price of one basis. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully find a new club for him in January. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ecosse83 Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 It does look iffy that we have signed an ex player Holt has managed but Livingston is only 20 odd miles away so could be a coincidence. We will know more soon enough! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
