and the 400 passes in the build up!

We have scored a number of stunning goals this season and the clear favourite will be Morrison v Montrose given the circumstances of that game. Spencer v QOS in the first game was a highlight for me as we had struggled all game and it looked like petering out into a 0-0 finish. I missed the 3-2 Montrose game as my son had a birthday party to go to at half 4. Personally I love a goal that's come from a good team move so from that collection it's either MacIver v Stirling or Nesbitt v Kelty for me

Couple of stories about my wee fella over the last month or so that shows he's growing too quick; Got married to his class girlfriend at school before the Easter holidays He was among thousands of Falkirk fans on Links Park and knows all the words to a number of the songs Away on a caravan holiday in the first week of the Easter holidays and he took himself away to the grassy play area which had two sets of goals and played football with other kids. Up to about xmas time he would have wanted his mum or I to take him over and wait He was doing Goalkeeping coaching through Falkirk Community Foundation since November but for a number of reasons - lack of coaches mainly - that all seems to be stopping. This week he has joined a local football team as a goalkeeper, gone to 1 training session and played his first ever match tonight. Very proud parent tonight

A lot of what you've said is so true. The stigma of mental health illness is still around and needs tackled head on. Talking about it or even getting it down on here hopefully helps. Thank god your missus found you each time and together you got the help you needed. You're still here to be a husband and father and ultimately that's all that counts. If your suicide attempts had been successful then your employer would have replaced you in weeks, in the grand scheme of things money really isn't important. Keep on talking, sharing and taking one day at a time. Good luck mate

Doubt we could afford his wages

It's absolutely up to each individual person whether they want to contribute a bit more to buying a season ticket. Personally I plan to buy a season ticket for myself and my son next season for the first time as if nothing else it will save me more than paying at the gate. I've been to every home league game this season bar the 3-2 Montrose game and its cost me £340, would have saved myself £98 had I bought a season ticket.

I remember this well! Didn't he then flick the ball over a Hamilton player almost straight after kneeling on it?

Best Squad in the League vs The Championees
FK1Bairn replied to Bairn in Exile's topic in Scottish League 1 General Chatter
Based on Accies form in the last 7 games or so, I thought they'd be our toughest game but that yesterday was an utter canter for us. Didn't need to get out 3rd gear, Miller and Nesbitt were brilliant, Tait and Spencer won the midfield battle and the defence kept Hakeem Rose quiet with the exception of a few half chances. Shout out to Hogarth as well, nothing to do all game but still had the concentration and alertness to pull off two saves to keep the clean sheet Also, how many times did Miller say "Invincibles" in his post match interview? The players have a determination to do it and for their sake rather than the fans, I hope they do it. Accies were poor, continue like that and they won't go up -

I've tried the stuff twice, had migraines the following day each time. -
A two hours race? That would be a marathon which I guess 5 seasons in this league is. The finishing line is in sight, let's get over it

Anybody go along to the stadium this afternoon for the Scotland u16 girls v Switzerland friendly? I knew nothing about it until my partner phoned me at work to say she was at the game with our son who only found out about it when he was having lunch in the restaurant. I went along after finishing work and caught the last half hour or so. There's another friendly between them on Sunday afternoon but it's great to see our stadium being used for international football again.

The kids were singing Championees as the players walked out, it was brilliant to see and the players were loving it

I think it's more a claim for offside against Miller but he's never off. I kept expecting the flag to go up at Alfie's goal, watching it back on Alba I can't see how Shanley isn't impacting on the keeper when Alfie shoots but I'll take it
