  1. Outstanding performance considering the circumstances and over the moon Nizzy is finally getting the recognition he deserves. There is so much quality to his game with and without the ball that has largely been overlooked IMO. As for the ref, he took the easy decisions - high boot=red card, Tidser falling over in the breeze - but shirked a few contentious calls like Nesbitts ball staying in play and Morrisons penalty claim. It's hard not to love a single one of this team
  2. Agree and I don't think it's appreciated how big our pitch seems to be compared to other, long-established grounds in Scottish football. Craig Ireland even mentions it in the WDHS podcast and that was almost 20 years ago!
  3. Yes but didn't Dee4Life have "our" model and gave it up to accept the investment from their benefactor which has led them to this situation? I think it highlights that the fans leg of the stool must always be the strongest one.
  4. Morrison for Scotland would at least be entertaining! Last night was predictable and boring Ach, maybe it's just I've just been spoiled domestically
  5. Sounds like a different approach taken from a normal match day to be honest. As others have said it's a free-for-all on leaving but generally there aren't issues.
  6. ... or innovative by Edinburgh Monarchs
  7. Not that I think this has any bearing on the SPFL reasoning but all the same this could be significant longer-term: Health checks on users of crumb rubber pitches is insufficient, study finds | About | University of Stirling If this comes to fruition it will require statutory and governmental support to be feasible.
  8. A (paraphrased) comment that has gone under the radar, seemingly, on a Falkirk Daft podcast from a few weeks ago was that Yeats is being coveted by a calibre of team we'd be surprised by. I took that to be one or both of the ugly sisters or even Liverpool at a stretch with their recent track record of scouting Scottish talent Stranger moves have happened.
  9. Onus clearly on SPFL to detail valid concerns as to why artificial surfaces should be ruled out especially after the Dundee debacle at the weekend. Additionally they will also need to suggest how they will fix the redistribution of funds1 so that clubs across the pyramid can replace or maintain grass pitches to the perceived "standard" that top-flight football deserves - in their opinion ... Think I'll be in for a long wait. 1 This as always is the crux of the matter - Players prefer grass but clubs can't finance both so it's either got to continue to be a blend of surfaces in the SPFL or only one type (grass) across the whole organisation, in my view.
  10. You would need to ban an awful lot of folk on P&B if the bar is "posts I don't think are relevant/important/coherent"
  11. Not that I think it would happen but would there need to be anymore infrastructure than the platform to alight to/from? It would just be a means to allow mass transit of fans between Grahamston and Grangemouth - a bit like the tram platforms along the airport route - on a match day.
  12. As much as it's a laugh and I'm glad Ola is invested in our success, I can't help but feel it's a poor reflection overall. Wasn't getting a sniff here and went out on loan and didn't pull up any trees. I like the lad but he's not paid to be a cheerleader.
  13. Not keen to pile in on HSW as while I disagree with his statement, I agree with the sentiment. The football hasn't been great in the Championship from what I've seen but there is definitely a level of physicality that I don't think we've faced for a while. We're also likely to see less of the ball than we have lately and that will be an adjustment for the players and fans next season. I'd take a year of consolidation and squad building then hopefully be in a position to be in the mix. We need to continue to support the group whatever happens next season.
  14. Yes. My son and I sit in the KM with an adult and U12 ST.
