That's like the known nickname of stupid people in Nigeria as Dundee Uniteds because they played an awful tour there and the nickname stuck locally. Genuinely true.
Seen this on QI the other week. Was a great bit of trivia

Any recommendations for pre match pub with decent beer that allows kids in? Don't usually have a pint before Alloa games but got some time this week. Thanks.
Last time I went with my laddie we went to the bobbing John? Was a while ago now mind you

I'm sure if he had had 6 changes then Morrison would've been on at some point.
Pretty sure McGlynn actually said this.
1 hour ago, martin ritchie said:I thought the club counted season tickets in the attendance even if the tickets not been used, there was times last season when the attendance in the stadium looked a good few hundred below the official attendance announced. Most clubs count season tickets if they're used or not do they not. Even though the km stand has been sold out the last two matches there have been plenty of spare seats(3 unused season tickets in our group) for instance.
Not sure if they count in physical attendance figures announced at the end of the game, but aye they will have to announce sold out as the seats are paid for and reserved prior to attendance anyway obviously.

This is the point I always make if you want me to make your product you better pay me to do it. Falkirk are using three volunteers... I'm well within my rights to say I think your product is rubbish. That original criticism came from your own Falkirk fans. I'm just offering my opinion on a) why it's ugly b) how to make it better.
If that's not the done thing then it bloody well should be.Of course you are within your rights, but completely lacks any professional integrity. Deliberately criticising volunteers publicly, who are in the same line of work as yourself lacks class and makes you come across really arrogant. We get it, you are good at your job, doesn't mean you have to go around saying those volunteers are rubbish. You'd think anyone in your position would be defending these guys instead of just having a go and saying 'look how amazing I am' think you've made a wrong judgement call on this one.

That's like saying a film critic should be writing a letter to the studio instead of putting their review in the paper. Nonsensical.
It's really nothing like that at all

Those celebrations at the end! What did Falkirk win?
Never a penalty. Not in the box and a shirt pull that wouldn’t have drawn a foul anywhere else on the pitch.

Just off the top of my head, in my experience, maybe Stenny / Shire / Stirling / Airdrie / Morton. (?)
Would be interesting to see if any of my five match yours.
Surely Airdrie is reciprocated? I can't stand them and their fans.
I live in Stirling, have done all my life, and it's true, any Albion I know absolutely hates falkirk. One said it was because he was jealous of the size of our club and fan base. I honestly don't care about them one way or another. Cute really.

I for one think Falkirk FC are probably the third biggest club in Scotland and to inconvenience even one of their supporters is unforgivable.
We should just forfeit the game as a goodwill gesture and award them a 3-0 victory.
They are massive and we could never hope to complete with them anyway.
Aww you were so close and then fucked it.

May have differences with how I view the FSS but 850 members is a great amount. Pleasing to see that get recognised as a success rather than not being enough.
With it bringing in 120k per year, it's the equivalent of 1000 fans donating the minimum tenner a month so far, so without always focusing on the amount of subs, the amount of actual cash going in is great.
Without trying to state the obvious of course.

What a lot of shite. Falkirk are one of the best teams (probably the best) in the league so teams naturally have to play better in order to beat them. No team specifically raises their game against Falkirk. You ain’t that important
Falkirk are specifically the best team in the league, and teams specifically try to beat the best in the league, but no one is specifically trying to beat Falkirk, who are currently the best team in the league...thats what you are saying right?

Obviously yes on your first question.
Obviously no on your second.
Personally I’d go all out to win every game. Play the best players and if it’s out of sight at half time, or even before, then bring the other guys on.
All about opinions.That's a wild take man. We have guys more than capable that haven't had game time. Give them a run out and protect the guys in the first 11. Spencer, Morrison, Miller, Alfie have already all been on the treatment table this season. We have some huge games coming up.
Think you're at it to be fair and just waiting on a woosh

And if it does go badly and they’re subbed against Formartine, with respect, how does that affect their confidence?
You’re talking pish here mate.
Surely if someone is playing badly you sub them for someone who you hope can do better? With the greatest respect you are talking pish.
Would you play them but keep them on if they are playing shite so you don't hurt their confidence?
If they think they can't even get a start against a Highland league team, surely that is worse for their confidence?

Fair enough, personally I'd start the likes of Lawal, Allan etc who should be capable of getting a result, but if its going badly then sub the first team guys on.
This is the most logical approach. Rest as many first team as we can, if we are cruising without them then great, if not then get them on. 1-0 or 10-0 matters not a jot in a cup game, the outcome is still the same.

I always remember as a wee guy, he absolutely nailed someone right at the corner flag at hope street end where I used to stand the crowd loved it as he stood over the guy and just shouted 'yaassss' a hero was born for me that day

Let’s not forget, as great as he was, he did spend a lot of time in midfield for us (and of course, a bit upfront). This added to his long injury lay-offs means I can’t quite put him in the Falkirk great category for central halves. I would guess in the 5 years he was there, in all Falkirk games played, he was used approximately 25% as centre half (whether through injury, suspension or tactics).
Right you, Plenty of tar in a car park to roll about in. Bring yer maw

John Hughes is the best centre half we have ever had, and I'd happily fight anyone who says otherwise. Absolute behemoth in a Falkirk top and one of my all time favourite players for us. Gave absolutely everything for the badge.

I'm also sure one of the guys said the camera was now controlled by an xbox controller from a few rows down?
That's @LeodhasXD from Alloa that does that for their coverage if need be I believe.

I genuinely hope you take in your own words in here. Your fixation on the topic and the council is somewhat bizzarre if nothing else.

Get a size up
Sit doon, he's a walloper.
Spot on here. He's full of himself. Not trying to help anyone, just comes across as a bit of dick to be honest.
