Super Sam had signed that morning. Pre social media and pre transfer window era was fantastic! Aberdeen away we had signed Brendan McIntyre and he started,no one knew who the hell he was. He was crap. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 4 hours ago, Back Post Misses said: Someone on COYB said he had his op 7/10 days ago? Four weeks rehab I think they said Wrist isn’t too bad, but if it’s a bone in the hand, it can be a long time to heal due to the low blood supply. My better half took 4 months to heal a fracture twixt thumb and forefinger. If it’s in a cast, then good for recovery, but there are limits to cast hardness in terms of being allowed to play. At best, he is going to be three to four weeks away. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had John McVeigh as our midfield anchorman, by Christ! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When my wife made me live in Coatbridge 15-or-so years ago, McVeigh was a taxi driver, Heatherston ran a pub near my house (Silky’s) and Kenny Ashwood had a shop. Strange days. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seven in fact. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FFC 1876 Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 Bit disappointed we never got any new faces in this week. So same starting eleven as last week barring any injuries or covid drop outs. The new system and Williamson being fit for this game should hopefully cause Airdrie a lot more problems. Morrison needs to be more clinical this week as we'll need to score 2+ to win with dick & dom at the back. Could one of the FTV guys on here maybe ask Rennie in his post match interview for an update on the squad. Is Mcdaid back at Dundee? Will Ruth be staying for the season? How long the injured players are going to remain out for? And as a side piece ask him how long he reckons it'll take him to punt Mckay & Hall to buggery. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Believe The Hype Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 I mind being in the pub at firhill an hour before kick off and Zak rudden had managed to extend his loan that morning. I'm clutching at straws of course. But until the team is announced I hope. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FFC 1876 Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 Don't see the Reynolds one coming to fruition as some have said he's located up north and he's not a fan of plastic pitches given his knee injuries. Watson will obviously depend on how well his Dundee trials went. Would be quite happy if we managed to get Watson and a younger centre back in on loan. Centre of the parks still a major issue so hopefully that's going to be addressed this transfer window. Then another striker for competition up there. Bleak reading but we'll also have to start planning for next season as we've a fair few players out of contract and a fair few diddies tied down to long term deals. Paddy Martin - 2023 Robbie Mutch - 2022 Leon Mccann - 2024 Brad Mckay - 2024 Ryan Williamson - 2023 Paul Dixon - 2022 Aaron Taylor Sinclair - 2022 Ben Hall - 2022 Mackenzie Lemon - 2022 Cammy Williamson - 2022 Blair Sneddon - 2022 Steven Hetherington - 2023 Aidan Nesbitt - 2023 Craig Mcguffie - 2023 Callumn Morrison - 2023 Seb Ross - 2023 Charlie Telfer - 2022 Gary Miller - 2022 Ben Weekes - 2022 Jaime Wilson - 2023 Sammy Ompreon - 2022 Aidan Keena - 2022 Anton Dowds - 2022 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There will also be no go areas where the club will not wish to give out info and if the conversation strays into these matters I’m sure FTV would just edit it out. I do agree that interview aired today was pointless and serves no use for supporters hoping to get some insight into what happening at the club. It feels to me the club are just throwing out something or anything really to tick a box to show some form of PR. Ah for the good old days of the Falkirk TV programme that was broadcast on Central FM? I think. 30 minutes of pure Bairns mania every Friday at 6:30 with news, views and interviews. I would love the club to try to do something better than the effort put in in that 210 second slot. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting this horrible feeling that the new managers are finding it difficult to get deals over the line, in a notorious difficult transfer window. Stand to be corrected but didn’t KM say that deals were imminent? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocco Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 January is a difficult month and It’s likely with the winter break being brought forward in the top division that it’s slowed things down. Just need to hope deals start to be confirmed 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Iv got a feeling we might get one of these banter pre kick off announcements. Get the feeling Rennie is going to try and eke competitive gains out wherever he can. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Syd Puddefoot Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 (edited) January is always a difficult window, but with covid cover clubs are retaining players they maybe would have released or put out on loan just to bulk out their squad. No easy to get players in imo. This is where contacts, favours and looking further afield come into play.
