However if both Falkirk and Thistle were to win their extra game, they would be 2 and 3 points behind respectively.It would probably then depend on the Dobbie factor kicking in again... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they don’t go up, I don’t think there will be any second chances for him. It’s a graveyard for aspiring managers, and in recent times, only Ray McKinnon has moved on to better things. Quite a juicy prospect if they get to the play offs, and it’s Dundee they are up against. Would actually consider getting tickets for that. ICT will comfortably beat Utd in the playoffs. Shame really as I'd heve preferred Utd v Dundee 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HopeStreetWalker Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 It's in our own hands. When McKinnon took over we would all have settled for that situation. If we get out of this mess of a season McKinnon deserves at least 3 to 4 seasons goodwill from the board and the support. If we are safe on our last home game the team should run on the park to the theme from Deliverance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andreas Kelevra Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 It would be typical Falkirk to get a result at Ross county then get pumped off Thistle. I cannot be the only one concerned about the shitehouse tactics employed by our team last night, the time wasting and delaying tactics would have made Alex Macdonald's Airdrie team blush. it was understandable at Greenock when down to 10 men, but it looked ridiculous vs Ayr , as when we attacked with purpose we looked like scoring more goals. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Marshmallo Posted March 9, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted March 9, 2019 We're 8 games unbeaten and won 2-0 last night, having had the worst full time team in Scottish football history less than three months ago. With all due respect, shut it. 35 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balls. It's called game management. We were 2-0 up at half time down at Ayr but, because we were playing with Hartley's dross, they didn't know how to close out the game and we got humped. If only we'd had McKinnon instead of Holt when we went in at 3-0 against Hibs at Hampden. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andreas Kelevra Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 Every true Falkirk fan knows we cannot play the timewasting/ spoiling way - it always comes back and bites us in the arse. Get the third goal, the game is dead, instead we endure 45 mins of shitebaggery and nonsense. The manager has to trust the squad and give fans something to shout about. We are Falkirk FFS, 4000 fans watch our home games, we deserve to see players play, not timewaste. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavyBlueArmy1876 Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 It's all about game management ffs. We didn't do that earlier in the season against Ayr and ended up losing the game when 2-0 up. I could understand your point if we were near the top of the league and playing some absolute diddies like Cowdenbeath or something, but we're not and Ayr are still a decent side - I'd much rather we saw the game out in a professional manner. Also the scoreline last night makes it a totally different scenario, there is nothing more frustrating than trying to shithouse at 1-0 and losing a late goal anyway (as countless away teams have done at TFS in the past) but we were 2-0 up, giving us plenty of breathing space to see the game out. Long may it continue. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 I have said all season it isn’t a great watch but the win is all that matters now. A good run in the next 3/4 games should see us safe and hopefully then McKinnon could take the breaks off a little and play a bit more expansively. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had Fasan in goals then and given the fact he gifted them 2 of the 3 goals we might as well have been playing with 10 men or without a keeper. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely Mitchell or a one legged youth player has to better than that dick? I feel your pain on that one, are QotS not looking for a new keeper after yesterday we can donate Fasan as a charitable donation although its like kicking someone in the nuts and saying your doing them a favour. I think out of all the summer signings he is the one i am most annoyed about still being here. On following the reserve results its just lucky we have strikers that can actually score now its just a case of us needing to score more to stop the balance of having fasan in goals.

Udinese and Celtic on your CV clearly only gets you a few free goes in Football. Now he's going to have to do it on merit. RIP. That's the trouble you would look at that on a CV and think he's got to be good then when you see him in a game you think maybe we should have looked at why he was Ex Udinese and Celtic, I can only imagine he was probably the goalie that done the half time challenge or one of those that were that bad they told him he was a goalie to make him feel better the same as they give them everyone's a winner trophys to make people feel special about themselves for taking part. I dont think we could give him away if we tried, thank f**k he only got a one year deal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, the “true fan” trope. If you don’t agree with me, you’re not a true fan. If you don’t go to Dingwall on Tuesday, you’re not a true fan. If you weren’t at Clydebank in 19canteen, you’re not a true fan. As for the rest, correct me if I missed something, but we saw the game out didn’t we? There was a miserable arsehole sitting at the back of the south stand, waving his fist under the nose of the guy sitting two along from him, because the second guy was happy to see us play out 2-0. It was you wasn’t it? Truly, our fans are only happy when they’ve got something to whinge about (and yes I get the irony). Stick to posting comments on Daily Mail articles next time, you’ll be more at home there. 22 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
