With the exception of 3 or 4 if the rest left they would be no great loss if we got promoted. Airdrie is never an easy game and if we come away with a point I would take it. Sad how your expectations drop - taking a draw at Airdrie dear oh dear It’s a home game, so a draw would not be a great result tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairn in Exile Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 "looked good. Young manager, very modern, experienced coach, analytical. Shame he was so shite, totally unwilling to change tactics that so obviously weren't working. Does it really matter who they appoint? They have proved conclusively that they couldn't pick their nose let alone a successful manager. The people responsible for this mess will be the same people choosing the man to get us out of this mess". Paul Sheerin and the Falkirk board? No, just been onto the Carlisle United Fans Forum where they are discussing their recently sacked manager, the board and their decision making process in bringing in a new manager. We Are Not Alone! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falkirk 2-2 East Fife. A fantastic day/night all told. Prior to kick-off several teams could have finished 2nd. Even East Fife with a 6-0 victory! As it transpired, avoiding that 6-0 was all that was required but we didn’t know that at the time. Stevie Kirk header rebounding off the post into Geordie’s arms at 2-2, anyone? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Back Post Misses Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 (edited) I saw Morrison on Saturday night, walking ok without his crutches.

Bairn in Exile Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 jjjj As of today, 12th October 2021 at 16.48 UK time, the Falkirk thread has gone a whole 24 hours without a single post. Are we becoming an apathetic fan-base with a resigned acceptance of our current, depressing situation? And are we are now OFFICIALLY a Diddy Team, with fans posting as infrequently as the likes of Peterhead, Dumbarton and Cove supporters? No offence to Peterhead, Dumbarton and Cove fans, I respect and admire your loyalty. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

60`s bairn Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 Noticed a thread on Twitter about games that had late winners and while the 2 Rangers games and the Hibs game are obvious contenders, there was also this one against Hearts that barely gets a mention that had us taking the lead then losing it and Mark Stewart coming back in the final minutes to seal it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arguably the best game seen at TFS so far. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thing is, they would only be ringing for Sheerin, and he is a symptom, he is not the illness itself, and never will be as long as upstairs are allowed to carry on as they are. If Airdrie do win it's not a surprise. The first half against East Fife was absolutely shocking the fact we managed to scrape a win just bought Sheerin some time. Coat still very much on a shoogly peg for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The annoying thing is that, if he simply played his best players in their best positions, his peg would be getting a few more screws rattled into it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The current set up is dreadful , too many games and too many breaks - the season only got going a few weeks in September and went into a break, now here we are again.. I only watch the tournaments now as at least there is excitement , I mean who on earth wants to watch England v Andorra - what is the actual point of that game. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s the frustrating part. Sheerin is not the cause of our ills. That belongs firmly with our BoD. However, Sheerin is making it pretty easy for them to lay the blame at his door by his frustrating team selections. For me, he near enough jumped the shark when expressed his disappointment at the manner in which we rescued a point at Montrose. The nagging doubt is just how much meddling is going on behind the scenes by Gary Holt. I have never felt overly convinced by the manner of his appointment (and even more uncomfortable with the people who appointed him). Getting beat by Airdrie would pretty much put the tin lid on Sheerin’s time in charge (if he ever was really in charge of anything). I think we will win with another unconvincing display. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really enjoy the international breaks. I got a buzz from Saturdays game that I have not had watching Falkirk since 2016. Watching Falkirk now is just going through the motions. Its an excuse to get the house and nothing more and looking at the crowds so far we are teetering on a cliff edge. Once winter hits we are looking at PATG numbers in the very low hundreds and ST holders who will probably settle for Falkirk TV with the fire on.

falkirkzombie Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 Saturday's game was absolutely fantastic, came away feeling lucky to be there, it was very much a welcome break from the pish we get served up at TFS. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye but to be honest watching the Scotland v Faroes game last night felt more like watching Falkirk. A game we expected to win comfortably that within 20 minutes we're on the ropes and resorting to clueless high punts forward. Difference being Scotland actually won. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
