  1. Alloa are no mugs. Their reserves should have beat the Champions/Invincibles yesterday
  2. Not a penny of debt matey! All bills paid in full always, unlike all the other serial cheats and name changers across the country.
  3. It will remain until it becomes untrue. Looking forward to bringing the NBP to Airdrie. Or as they call it in government, development assistance.
  4. I’m like Thumper the Rabbit this morning. If Thumper had 13 pints and a kebab swilling around his belly.
  5. Even Airdrie fans are crowdwanking over The Invincibles! Can’t wait to be back.
  6. It’s okay big fella. The Invincibles will boost that figure next season.
  7. Alloa made us absolutely shite ourselves yesterday. Any Falkirk fan saying losing didn’t matter because we’d won the league anyway were about as convincing as a Tory on TV this morning talking about “the plan”. If Sammon had killed the invincible dream it would have been ulcerous. We must be honest about that. Alloa is the most improved team in the division. Genuinely hope they go up, for various reasons, but primarily because I like the pubs and the view of the Ochils. If not them, then Montrose, for similar reasons (principally the pubs). Had some great awaydays in this division and some class acts as hosts.
  8. Nice club Annan. Guard of honour AND wearing our heritage strip.
  9. On the upside, that’s Leon got his goal now.
  10. Can’t believe this season is going to be over soon. I really don’t want it to.
  11. What a lovely dilemma to have! Fair question to ask though Yes, I think it is the right way to go. First of all, it was a promise made and a bit of a social contract with fans to back the club through thick and thin (it felt thin at the time, mind) which we did. Second, folk still aren’t rolling in it so this gives an affordable minimum buy-in for those who are finding finances tough, so it’s inclusive. And third, there are now several options for folk to contribute more if they want, and some of these more tax/VAT efficient. So I think we’ve got it spot-on.
  12. This is just part of the transition into fan ownership. If you buy into the idea, are willing and (most importantly) able to pay more, then there’s a range of options. If it rankles to be asked to contribute more, then the immediate following thought has to be “I won’t” which everyone has the freedom to do without any come back. I’ve heard it argued that some feel under appreciated if they don’t contribute beyond tickets, strips etc but I don’t buy that as paying more is discretionary and anonymous. There’s of course a legitimate debate around how the funds are raised, but a) we elect our own directors to come up with these ideas and b) the doors are always open to volunteers to help devise and deliver new ideas. Bottom line is that it’s our club now so up to us how we fund it.
  13. Give it to them all. Sophie’s Choice
  14. He’s a cracking player. 100% every week and covers more ground than a hungry cheetah. I know we have a dozen POTY contenders but he deserves to be quoted.
  15. Exactly the reason we want them to go down and Alloa or Montrose up
  16. Because we made an utter c’nt of it for years. Back now though.
  17. Beaten ever other club home and away, scored at least three against every opponent, top scorers in the country…
  18. The 20 wee guys in the main stand should get a refund. They missed most of the game staring at us. Bless ‘em.
  19. They would have included all ST holders in that, half of whom would have been brushing up on their Gaelic.
  20. Genuinely not having a go. There was never 800 there, half that at best. I don’t want to see any club go down the tubes but Accies have a stench of death about them.
