RC55 FFC

Thomson is done, end of. Good luck to him but I hope it's nowhere near Falkirk. Unless he's playing for Hibs on Sunday that is.

Houston has been on the radio tonight saying he's all but snapped a young player lighting up the lower leagues. East Fifes Nathan Austin?

Great news. In Houstie we trust....

Bowman will go out on loan I think once it's known what's happening. The polish keeper could be out for a couple of months so I think it's right we backfill the position.

This guy WellBairn??

Thanks for the info and the update.

Any ideas about the trialist? How did he play also?

Notice O'Hara started for the U20s tonight, going by previous times, that would suggest he will be on the bench on Sunday.

No idea what you mean.... Welcome home Conor! :-)

McHugh, Taiwo and Duffie are all back in training and are due to play for the development team in the next week or 2.

If anything, I'd think his confidence will be high. He'll be fitter and stronger than when he left us and has been playing against a good standard of opposition, albeit young.

A signing or 2 to be announced today I hear

Cooper is one of the best trainers in the squad, it sadly doesn't reflect in any 1st team opportunities he's had. I wouldn't even say he's that consistent in the development squad matches. Can see him going out on loan, doubt Smith will be though.

I think we'll see at least 1 signing in before the weekend.

There will be a pitch inspection, can't see the game passing it however. Pitch is worse today than it was on Friday I'm told.

Where did you see/hear this? Nothing from either club yet.

Cammy Bell is available, just putting that out there.

Only thing I can think of was that Biabi was injured pre final, how that's his fault I'm not sure....

I wouldn't spend money to get 1st or 2nd specifically but if the right player is identified and would enhance us bring him in in January. Best case it helps us finish 2nd (and 2 less play off games) and worst case the new player(s) is embedded for next seasons assault. Next season will be tough too and no easier with Dundee United down and possibly one other.

Terrific season and year from Houstie and the lads.

Yep, I'd invest in a couple of players too and I think we will. Let's cement 3rd and see where our the current form can take us.

Both ER games were all ticket last year BUT there was a ticket pod outside the away end selling tickets on the day. Would assume the same will happen on Saturday.

I'd agree BPM, the only reason the Westfield Lounge now works is that it's ran by the Stadium Co/Council mon-fri. Sent from my iPhone using Pie & Bovril

BPM talks about the investors/directors making money, not FFC. However, from what I've gathered, FFC will benefit from the new development from: Increased capacity (when needed), hospitality/bar facilities that will retain more profit, gym/sports facilities for the 1st team and development teams. For me, I'm looking forward to watching the game side on again. As much as I like and prefer the SS id like a spot similar to the choir at Brockville for sentimental reasons. Main stand in front of me and home behind the goals to the left. Sent from my iPhone using Pie & Bovril

Would have taken a point pre match today but to lose a goal so quickly, Houstie should be asking questions in the dressing room right now. No ground lost behind us but lost points in front. 6pts is nothing mind you, especially as we play both teams twice in December & January. Sent from my iPhone using Pie & Bovril
