Stellaboz Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 I'd rather keep winning fortunately than getting pumped 4 0 by Airdrie. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Managed 7/12 points from Falkirk last season, finishing above you in the table. We were feckin dreadful last season yet still took points off them and we struggled to take points off any half decent side. Getting pumped by a newly promoted side would say they arent up to much this season either. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've not even played shite like Peterhead yet either. Peterhead are not shite. They are much worse than that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another great in a long line of Scottish football underachievers. Had it all and could have been a Scotland great instead just got flashes of the brilliant footballer he undoubtedly was. Hope he gets his personal issues resolved 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How equal was the game before hand? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me it was three goalkeeping errors that swung that game and of course defending before it gets to the keeper - not great. Excepting that it was a remarkably open game we could have easily ran away with it at 1-0 or clawed our way back at the end on another day. Just an off day for us which hasn't happened too often under BR. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We for sure had woeful managers last season and I'd bet we had a much worse squad than your one that finished 7th in league one. It for sure had been the worst I've seen Falkirk FC in my time 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At Alloa he played McGinn’s role. No he didn't. At Alloa, Hetherington's game was all about mobility; pressing aggressively, ball winning, covering midfield runners etc, the role he seems to be playing for Falkirk now under McGinn (as Captain Chugwash and Russ have spotted and explained). Flannigan played McGinn's role. Edited August 16, 2022 by printer 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavyBlueArmy1876 Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Now that we've changed our entire starting 11 - bar the two fullbacks & Morrison - Nesbitt and Hetherington look just as poor as they did previously. I don't really buy the positional argument tbh, you're either good enough or you're not. Guys like Muirhead, McGhee and Vaulks could all fill in at CB, FB and midfield when required. Equally hoping that Jamie Wilson will turn in to a good wingback because he's utterly pish up front just isn't going to happen. I had hoped that a combination of a competent manager and playing in a better team would see them do ok but it's not looking good at the moment Both have now played over 30 games for the club in total, Nesbitt has done well in maybe a third of them tops (mainly when he's been able to play to his strengths of being fast and having a decent first touch), and I'd struggle to count good performances from Hetherington on one hand. Once McGlynn figures out his best team I doubt either of them will be regular starters 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
