bejazz1 Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 Pleased to see a majority of FSS voters going against the signing of Goodwillie. Cant do any more really. So who gets the casting vote then if MR wants him to spearhead his attack?This is when polls can cause problems…what happens if another 4 polls say the consensus is to bring him on board?This is only a view from a cross section of our overall support. Before anyone starts jumping up and down I’m not supporting we sign him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should be representative of the FSS position who have two members on the board.I’m not sure what any other unofficial poll would mean. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The findings absolutely should be communicated to them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That should mean anyone with a 2/3 year deal won't necessarily be here for the full term if they're not featuring in games. 'Supposedly' ! just remember who was dishing them out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the aim of an organisation is to be representative of its members then it should be as transparent as possible. Publishing the results and their course of action is exactly what I'd expect of them. 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO yes, they would have just been accused of censorship or the likes if they didn't release the final results. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bairn88 Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 No qualms at all with how FSS have handled this. Very unique situation in regards to Goodwillie, and they seem to recognise these polls etc. would really only be for exceptional circumstances - which this is. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Publishing the results and their course of action is exactly what I'd expect of them. Yes I can agree to a point but I think it should have been kept in house and views passed on to directors etc. I don’t think logging results on a public form is the right place to display findings etc. it should have remained info within FSS. I appreciate that they have not put this on this site but possibly another member has. I feel it should be removedJust my view of course. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FFC 1876 Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 315 members is still very low considering we had around 1000 people pledging to contribute before the Mark Campbell fiasco. What are people waiting on? Holt's gone, we've got an academy on it's way back and we've got a new management team looking to turn the on field mess around. 18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's kept "in house" and Goodwillie signs the supporters trust or whatever it is that done the poll will need to come out and say the members voted against it and it would cause a further divide between Falkirk fans and whatever collection of numpties are currently running the club 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 This isn't the normal way of running things. Folk need to calm down. There isnt going to be a vote on every issue or signing. Its quite simply a response to the hugely controversial nature of this one signing. FSS have done the right thing here IMO There needed to be something done and they are exactly the right vehicle for it. They are the early shoots of fan ownership and whilst fans in such a scheme cant expect to get a say in everything, if they cant speak on an issue like this, whats the point? 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
