What’s your argument here? Is it simply that if we are ahead, and the opposition don’t score, we’d win the game? You could apply that logic to every single game when you are ahead to come up with a reason why you should win every time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was pretty damned sure the match was going to end in a draw (purely on the basis that it started 0-0 at kick-off) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just say that slowly and digest it. f**k me what a mess we’ve made of things. True enough. Think back to, say, when Yogi left. Has any manager or signing since provided excitement or hope? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could apply that logic to every single game when you are ahead to come up with a reason why you should win every time. I was more critical of the team than most from the Hamilton game but I'd have to admit minus the Miller moment and we would've won that game. I don't know if you watched the game but I think you'd struggle to find anyone who watched thinking otherwise re the Miller pen cost us. Hamilton were the better team over the 90 but that doesn't always equal victory, I recall a game that was on Scotsport funnily against Hamilton where we were by far the better team but couldn't score and Hamilton ran out winners(sure the velcro vulture Craig Nelson had a dormer ofva game) The cruel world of football it is, tho our cruel world is deeper than just on the pitch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Won`t fill in any of the details, except to say there`s someone in it who would be well known to fans of the 90`s era.

Shadwell Dog Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 These commercial jobs you need to keep moving around on a regular basis really. Can't be easy coming up with new ideas when you've been in post for as long as he was at Falkirk. He'll be able to use a lot of his Falkirk ideas for a whole new fresh audience although only a few hundred of them I suppose. Won't be so easy getting local.buy in I'd have thought as most will support one half or the other of the arse cheeks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, the only reason anyone is at QP is because of what Willie Haughey is paying them. They don’t have a ground and based on the town/city they are based in they are surely the worst supported team in the country (based on attendance vs population %). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was Leeann Dempster who offered him the Commercial gig at Hibs, but Hibs in the top flight paid less than FFC in the seaside league (because of his commission). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do have a massive untapped support on their doorstep in the Asian Community i'm sure he'll be thinking up some plan. Curry Night standards should be better through there though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think most tend to support English teams. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to genuinely look forward to going to games every week during that season. That one year was kind of an anomaly when bundled together with the last decade of muck, though.
