Got to disagree, Agyeman on his game is borderline unplayable but unfortunately he has a tendency to beat several opponents then trip over the ball or cross the ball out of the park.
Ross may not be as flash but is much more reliable, obviously todays miss excepted!
6 goals and 3 assists for Alfie in very limited league game time compared to 1 league goal for Ross - if there’s only space for one of them next year I’d be keeping Alfie given he’s our player under contract

Watching Mcginn busting a gut at full time doing sprints on Alba was class.

And with 4 games to go Hamilton are now 2 points behind what we achieved last season (in terms of points tally a very very respectable season). Their fans treatment of their manager and players has been an utter disgrace.

Falkirk fans thinking they take an average of 1,000 to away games is the funniest things I've read today. I don't think you chumps manage even half of that when you visit Cappielow.
edit: you also think Cove have a bigger budget than you this season?
Wtf am I reading?
Given we’ve now taken 2.4k to Montrose, 2k to Hamilton. 1.5k both times to Alloa, 1.5k(plus) to Stirling both times, and have never had less than around 400 fans (cove and Montrose away midweek), 1k is probably on the light side of average. Assuming, of course, that you know what the word “average” means.

It’s a shame we’re losing these 5:30 Saturday Alba slots, replaced with 7:45 Friday night bbc Scotland. Can imagine quite a few of our early season games will be then

Tuesday back on it

I think an unbeaten season would make it almost impossible to not give it to Mcglynn. They’re ridiculously rare. If we lose a game then probably won’t be him

Without trying to be too bias, I would think Rhys McCabe would be ahead of mcglynn for the spfl manager of the year

As a (relatively) young fan I’ll never forget the words “enjoy the party boys” when some boy came in and opened the 4th turnstile today in the away end

Any beer gardens in Montrose? Not particularly warm but blue skies could tempt us out somewhere…?

2221 a couple of hours ago apparently.
Will the Montrose pubs have capacity?

Ticket update anyone?
Got tomorrow off. The idea of heading down to Larbert beer festival early tomorrow and not stopping til Saturday night is all consuming

More good POTY discussion on Falkirk daft. For me it has now been narrowed quickly over the last month, down to Morrison, Hendo or Captain Coll. Coll shading it at the moment

I know what you mean. Something you definitely notice in the highlights packages. The noise definitely doesn't come through. Just compare with Blair McNally's (football vlogger) video he uploaded from Saturday and it's SO noisy. I sit in the KM every match, and I didn't even realise just how loud those youngsters are until I watched Blair's video
It's a shame too that we can't just have scaffolding all the time in the vacant East space, and use it for broadcasting, as it would be nice to get a view of the main stand, like on BBC Alba, instead of a view of Grangemouth.
I'm not criticising btw. I am very grateful that people volunteer to provide this service.
Not wishing to criticise, rather give feedback as I think it’s something that should be relatively cheap and easy to fix. Feedback on here has been taken in good faith and fixed previously so thought it was worth mentioning.

So my first live falkirk tv effort was Saturday. Commentators - terrific. Picture quality - good. Buffering - good. Graphics pre match - terrific.
But wtf is up with the sound? It was like watching a covid game. Absolutely no sense of atmosphere portrayed. Is this a limitation of the camera or is it incorrect settings? Dampened the experience quite a bit

1789/2500 sold. Another 900 available.
A lot more than I thought. Will probably be up towards 2.5k all said and done. That end (3 sides) is going to look brilliant

Sure we will cope. Something about the Falkirk stadium. Just never seem to lose there
Incorrect. Was thrown by the Welsh mob after their first goal.
Fair enough. Straight to the Welsh mob then

Flare burn marks on the pitch. That’ll be a hefty bill straight to Airdrie

Kevin McAllister is a legend. There is no more fitting description, or worthy recipient of that tag (and probably never will be) Of other players I've seen, I'd be inclined to attach the same status to a certain Trinidadian magician. And, despite his relatively brief time at the club, a certain English one who liked scoring goals from the halfway line and direct from corners (against the same goalkeeper). Older fans will no doubt have players from earlier eras in mind.
Callum Morrison is, on his day, easily our most entertaining player. And our biggest attacking threat. He's had an excellent season. I'll be amazed if he does not win L1 Player of the Year. It's great that he has signed up for the next two years. I'm sure he'll make a decent impact in the Championship next season.
But Callum Morrison is not a legend and I do not consider myself even remotely "deluded" for holding that belief. There is such a thing as context. A bit of perspective from time to time would not go amiss.
What should a player do, now, to be considered a “legend”? New era will be talking to children and grandchildren about Morrison and rightly so.

Tait so good today. Run in the first half again had me thinking he’s better suited to a more forward role.
2nd half completely dominant after an even first half.
Onto next week and a huge away day party. Don’t know why but it feels like a fitting away to wrap up this league!
Also fair play to Hamilton (the players and management). Their fans have been an embarrassment in how they’ve turned on them but the team, in any other league 1 season, would’ve produced a very close title race

Double barriers to keep the NB hordes in the stand. The boring b*****ds.
Eta nothing keeping folk in the main stand tho . Discrimination IMHO
Surely they’ll be getting jumped at FT if we clinch it. Average age of the ultras is about 16, they’ll make a mockery of it

This is a wee bit after Tait’s pass for Agyeman’s goal, so he’s even more onside than this still. Miles on.
