Dunfermline v Falkirk


Recommended Posts

Now that 24 hours have passed since the incident yesterday, I think I've had time to calm down and compose myself.

I'd hope my fellow supporters would like to join in and congratulate Falkirk on giving our players a lesson in Championship football. I hope they learned a thing or two about the dark arts of operating in this league and come back and mount a challenge next year. If you fail in the play offs, I relish the prospect of the ties next season. They will at least have a bit of rivalry now that you have thrown a gauntlet down even if you are still not our derby game.

I will be watching your play-off game results with interest. Best of luck.

Aye, that had the equivalent sincerity of a Piers Morgan apology.

Says a poster named Super Tuesday on a thread where Vast majority of the posts are Falkirk fans trolling some angry Pars. Very good. 
looking forward to next season now, job done, stayed in the championship after a wobbly start.  Another season of rebuilding. 
Falkirk on the other hand will be losing some good players in the summer after bottling the playoffs as usual.  Will be interesting to see who Houston brings in to replace some of the clearly talented players you've got that are out of contract and will move on if you don't get up.

Your talking like your a team of inexperienced youngsters. Every one of your players has played at this level or higher before.

Going through that list...

I don't think we'll have any problem keeping Watson, Gasparotto, Taiwo, Craigen & McHugh. Good players for this level but doubt they'll get better elsewhere.

The young keeper seems highly thought of so will be kept I'd imagine 

McCracken, Kerr and Baird will hopefully get punted. Not sure if Miller can/will go another season

I'm fairly sure Hippolyte and Kidd will be under longer contracts as we paid fees for them

Rogers and McKee will return to their parent clubs. Rogers has lost his place and McKee has only managed 100 mins of football since he signed (all against Dunfermline) 

Aird and Leahy may move on but no great loss. Gallagher will replace Leahy at LB next season

Sibbald will move on to better things but we'll get £180k for him. Hopefully Houston has a replacement lined up

That list is a load of crap. From Transfermarket I assume?

Four of the players on it are under contract for next season. 

Which four?

McKee is our player no?

It would appear he is :lol: I'd keep him next season if he can stay fit and play well over the next couple of games and in the play offs

As far as I am aware Craigen, Gasparotto, Grant, Austin and Gallagher are under contract for next season.


Yep they all are.

Rogers, McCracken, Watson, Leahy, Taiwo, Kerr, Sibbald, McKee, Miller, Baird and McHugh are all our players out of contract afaik.

Out of that I'd only be wanting to keep Watson, Leahy, Taiwo, Sibbald and Miller. Perhaps McKee deepening on fitness.

Well, of course, it was never a penalty. Not because Hippo dived, as the keeper did make contact with him, but because he got his hand to the ball first. From behind the goal it looked like Hippo got to the ball first and the keeper took him out. Ref obviously thought the same.

The really funny aspect of it though is that Pars fans were going mental at it at the time as there is no way that any of them could have been able to see whether it was a penalty or not! 

I suppose we'll need to buy a mantlepiece now!

I'm thinking that Houstie starts with this line up hoping that we can get in front and knowing that he'll have some better players to bring on rather than having poorer options from the bench. Fuckin daft though!
