Agreed and many more billy brown John Hay Neil Oliver The old choir had songs for many of them. “All together now Hark the hail the Falkirk sing the Dundee ran away, but we will win for evermore because of big John Hay” or the verses of Away the lads of John Haggert aces

George Watson should be on the list

Nick Hogarth incoming

What about given Rankin a chance

James (even) McPake from Dunfermline??

Didn't know that Alex Mcleish was a Falkirk supporter

There is a FFiT (Football Fans in Training) group that play on the main pitch at 7pm and 8pm every Monday night. The aim is to get you off the chair away from the TV for a little exercise with enjoyment. The age range from slow late 30's to mid 60's and above. There can be up to 50 guys each Monday and the games are split to either 6's 7's or 8's depending on numbers. Teams are split games of even ability and fitness, some run, some jog, some fast walk, all welcome. There are spaces available if anyone wishes to give a try. We would like you to do a FFiT course but not nessary if you dont wish too. You just need to be over weight and unfit. Message me if you wish more details or drop down for a look or chat.

A deal was done in the late 70's to rebuild Brockville. It was as you have stated turning the pitch, but also moving slightly to the railway. Cooperage Lane would have become a tunnel under the home end. There used to be an artist picture as you entered the players entrance on the left hand wall. To make it happen we had to buy the house that was behind Watson Street end going into the car park. At that time it was unlivable but not yet a ruin. The story was that the person with the title deeds was living in Australia. There was a lot of unrest within the Directors that the ground should be rebuilt, but a director was sent to get the owners signature. In these days it was 2 days to get there and by the time he got there the Directors coo had happened and a new board put in place with the rebuild cancelled.

What you are forgetting is that Peter Grant played and trained for 3 years on this pitch, no injuries or issues. His career threatening injury actually happened at Livingston and then made worse at Ibrox the following. Both pitches were grass at that time. He was never the same after the game at Ibrox, which on hind sight to never had played in. So Mr Velvet you are a Donkey cousin

Are there any pubs in Falkirk or Larbert showing the game today

that was when we had a proper choir. some of the songs were brilliant.

Hear, the vocals are being warmed up

They are not the same surface. I have played on both and the Rovers surface is sharper blade with medium risk of grazing / cutting. The Falkirk surface has softer blade with no rubber filling. The Falkirk surface it was a Dutch system that at the time only Falkirk and Arsenal (training pitch) layed.

Dont think we will have new manager until after the end of the season. With only just over 2 weeks of the post split games, Holt should only be thinking about 1 thing, the 1st team. After the next for games then he can start if we are not in the play offs.
