Is that not going to be the case with whoever we appoint to do the job?

We're we not looking at some Falkirk boy who ended up at Southampton? As DoF or some similar role.

Good, he never brought anyone through to the first team in all the time he was here.

Ross Wilson. We offered him it. Got knocked back. Offered him it again. Got knocked back again. Then hired Caixinha.

We should replace him with whoever headed up Falkirk’s academy. They’ve shut the whole thing down but over the past few years they’ve been pretty successful at bringing youngsters through.

They were successful until they merged with Stenhousemuir and East Stirling g to create Forth Valley Developmont Academy. After that happened they stopped bringing anyone through of note. Kenny Shiels was in charge at one point there. Not sure who was running it most recently though.

Genuine question,has their been any team in Scotland who have brought through more players than Falkirk in the past decade or so. I’m thinking Hamilton are the only ones who might rival them?

I don’t pay particular attention to Falkirk but they always seem to have three or four players at once who have come through their system and are being linked with moves away

1 million compensation or gtf.

Get some cunt to do a peice in the paper saying they are unsettling our coach.

Not that I can think of off the top of my head. Loads of boys cherry picked by others out their academy too. 

I spent some time doing a bit of coaching at their academy about 15 years to get my badges when Hughes was still manager there. Really well run set up although kinda lost its way a bit after the merger. They were really good with letting boys move on too if they had an opportunity of regular games elsewhere

It was clearly a short term thing for both parties. If hes getting a permanent gig out of this then fair enough.

No loss, the others we brought in and hopefully continue to bring in will be Rangers men rather than scum supporters. I don't even recall any comments from him about how delighted he was to be here. Nothing.

Opens up Millers space too no doubt.

Vignal or thommo might get an instant promotion ?????

Was that not for Mark Allen’s job?

Aye. We went for a dof first, couldn't get one so appointed a manager and started again with the dof search.

Bomber will get it! Trough guzzlers top of the list

Don’t really know too much about this Taylor guy but if he sees it as a big opportunity for himself we shouldn’t stand in his road - afterall Falkirk and Hartley are no friends of Rangers and they let us do likewise with Nicholl with him only being there a couple of weeks.

Could be a fast-track promotion for Kev Thomson I suppose.

Sounds like a good idea to me and a win-win

Him and Lambert will be gone once Stoke are relegated. Such a poor decision in my opinion.

It's a great move for him.

[Perth_Campsie_Ger 18,032]

No point standing in his way and an easy bit money for the club in composition

Fuck dumbert

[cushynumber 25,178]

we need to stop appointing taigs to some of these positions anyway.
