    Segregation inside is at the half way mark. I think 4 sections would be our max for using 2 turnstiles & only one set of toilets/catering. 

    I'm pretty sure when we won the league against Ross County in 2005 they only had a single section at the end and the rest of the stand was for Falkirk fans.

     

    We've had plenty occasions in the past with of a couple hundred fans sharing the facilities in the main stand so I don't see a reason not to to do it against Alloa in the North stand if we have demand to sell those seats.

    Hope you c***s lose at least one!

    Anyway, what is the emotion the night? Is it a big exhale, a huge relief? Or is it a big hooring celebration? A mix of both?

     

    Exhale but now a big buzz to go undefeated IMO. Each game still feels big if it means becoming invincible.

    When Putin says the West has no democracy, he’s not correcting us. He stating an opinion which is then ridiculed by his audience. The same applies to you.

    You’ve corrected no-one.

    You’ve made claims which you refuse to substantiate. You’ve attacked posters, board members, fans and the club. You’ve gone out of your way to be insulting to people who tried to engage with you.  

    You’re free to do all of that, and I’ve no doubt you’ll continue.

    But when you posted about the U18, U16s and recreational teams you showed a knowledge of Foundation activities which no-one would have without being involved. The details of your claims were spurious because the youth teams were created before the dev team folded and at least one of the rec teams was created by players, not Foundation staff, but you still knew the basics.

    In the eyes of people who read this page, that knowledge marks you as someone connected to the Foundation. And no amount of denials will change that.

    It’s ironic that you posted in support of the Foundation. Because all you’ve achieved is to piss people off, at least judging by the reaction to your posts. You’ve stirred up hostility against the very organisation that you’re trying to help.

    Good job mate.

    I suspect I know who this individual is based on my interactions with the foundation. His dismissive attitude and arrogance all very similar to what wee regularly see.

    Seems like somebody biting of more than they can chew.

    That Academy died when it became a clique and when the Board in that era made another crap decision to scrap it. The Foundation is about many things which includes getting kids playing football, getting them off the streets and allowing them to make friends and have experiences they might never have. Clearly this upsets the Board. Clowns. 

    You clearly don't understand the concerns of those who interact with the Foundation on a regular basis.

    i admire your restraint i've accepted the shambles it is for too long but starting a season and not being able to fulfil it is an embarrassment and says everything about the crass indifference to people and their and the clubs reputation. absolutely pathetic

    Glad that more people notice it.

    Heard the same about the kids football side of things. 

    To paint a picture, the team I'm involved with within the foundation turn up on a Sunday and are forced to change and prepare for a game wmeither in the warm up room or in one of the "classrooms" in the main stand. This is because we are left in a position were the foundation can't provide us with more than 1 changing room and set of showers. Naturally, we give that to the away team and we are often left without shower facilities or proper changing facilities. 

    On occasion we have even got changed within the KM Stand concourse. With no secure place to leave belongings.

    To make matters worse, the only contact we seem to have on a Sunday is one of young guys (a regular fan on Saturday) who is merely there to open up and lock up. The ones making these decisions are only every contactable viaessages on WhatsApp.

    I could go on and on but don't want it to become slanderous. I can certainly see why some teams lose interest and want nothing to do with the foundation.

    It does mean sold out.

    Empty seats are due to season ticket holders and match ticket holders not attending for whatever reason.

    You can’t sell a seat twice.

    You can't and i know that but you'd expect a 90% turnout surely. Some sell outs the stand has looked very sparse in some sections.

    I see the club have just announced 5171 Falkirk tickets sold. That doesn’t add up to me given the tickets available- can’t imagine only 71 have been sold since yesterday’s update.

    Sold out never really means sold out though. The KM stand was sold out for TNS but still had a 100/150 empty seats. I've noticed this quite a bit.

    So you want the fans to contribute by whatever means possible to the running of the club(even if we cannot afford it)  but won't accept help from the falkirk foundation....

    The foundation already technically support the club being having a block hire on the main pitch. 

    I don't have too many good things to say about the foundation but they do make some form of contributionnto the club.

    They have a sugar daddy investing a lot of money every season. They have a large full time squad you could never afford to run off 300 size crowds. Why do you think McManus is there ? Because he's getting paid far more than he'd get in the championship here. 

    Nothing to suggest they have a bigger budget.

     

    Doesn't mean tonight wasn't an absolute failure. Bottled two cup games in two weeks.

     

    Pressure is now on to win the league at a canter since supposedly nothing else matters...
