Will see how it goes in the run in but looking at our squad I don’t fear anyone even if it comes to the play offs. Certainly have far better attacking options but Dunfermline have a solid midfield and back 4. We still concede the odd goal more than we should at times. We'll need to be water tight on Tuesday to get a result. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grahamstonbairn Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 Thank you John McGlynn for giving us back pride in our team. We now have a squad capable of promotion either by winning the league or via the play-offs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 (edited) Tuesday will be very tense. I genuinely think if we win (not sure we will) we will go on a win the league as we will beat Dunfermline are our place. A draw makes it all to play for. The only result that will settle anything is them winning. Don’t buy them not needing to win Edited March 5, 2023 by Back Post Misses 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavyBlueArmy1876 Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 (edited) Whist a draw suits Dunfermline better, it certainly wouldnt settle things. Would just need to catch them by another 2 points over the final 10 games and beat them at TFS to take the title on goal difference Edited March 5, 2023 by NavyBlueArmy1876 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ecosse83 Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 Frustrating 1st half yesterday with them putting every man behind the ball but always felt like we would eventually get the breakthrough. The crowd is much more patient now which is great to see! Two absolutely huge games now, it’s been a while since I felt confident going into these game. Genuinely think we will beat them on Tuesday and go and win the league! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Grangemouth Bairn Posted March 5, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted March 5, 2023 Was going to post last night but I couldn’t be arsed due to some of the absolute wankers who now post on our thread. I thoroughly enjoyed yesterday. It’s clear to see that our players have a brilliant relationship with themselves and the management team and are loving playing football. Just the little things I noticed in that every players celebrated every goal and Nesbitt’s little interaction with the photographer after he knocked him over - they are playing with smiles on their faces and this is getting through to the fans. Even 6 months ago if we’d been 0-0 with the team at the bottom at half time a lot of the fans would have been frustrated - not yesterday, collectively we knew if we were patient goals would come. The link up play between Morrison/McCann and Rowe/Kennedy is outstanding and great to watch. At times unplayable at this level. We also have competition for places due to having a strong squad. Max was brilliant when he came on and when was the last time we had a substitute who scored a hat-trick who won’t start the next game ? Now onto the hat-trick - well done Craig McGuffie. His first 2 goals were up with the best I’ve seen at TFS and the first in the top 3 I’ve seen from us ever. The penalty was calmness and confidence personified. Also, I noticed when the penalty was awarded, the players as a collective wanted to give the ball to McGuffie - that team spirit again. Finally, thanks to me to John McGlynn and Paul Smith. You’ve given me my team and my pride in my team back. Thank you both. 29 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brilliant. Think I counted it last time we played and it was 836 (though can't see us being allowed in the first 1-2 rows). Assuming the stand's capacity of 3016 is still accurate that would mean 2180 in the upper tier, which is some effort for a Tuesday night Just had a quick look at the home tickets and Pars have pretty much sold out their traditional end. They'll have to open some more sections there as well 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be sit/stand anywhere anyway I’d think as usual through there but yeah, opening it all up makes sense too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you look at both teams form then Falkirk have gained 2 points on us since the beginning of December. We are still unbeaten at home and have conceded less goals all season than Falkirk have conceded away from home... Yes Falkirk are playing well but so are we....McPake got it spot on last game at Grangemouth Stadium.... Falkirk need a win, we don't...a win for us would just about see us over the line but Jesus Falkirk are definitely playing well. Hopefully game is on and looks to be a cracking crowd. May the best team win We’ve scored a lot more goals than you, you’ve only lost once all season to our 4 but for us that was early season and we’ve grown since then. Since January we’ve been a different side to the first half of the season and McPake will need a different game plan this time IMO. I don’t watch the pars very week, but they don’t strike me as going the rest of the season without another loss. Some recent ties were close. Mental commentary from McPake saying Airdrie as best of the rest. He struggled to beat them but other teams aren’t at all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’ve given me my team and my pride in my team back. Thank you both. Can’t disagree with this at all, or the rest of your post I didn’t copy. BUT can I add something? When John McGlynn got his manager of the month award he made sure the backroom staff and players were included. Following John’s selfless example we should also acknowledge the FSS who are putting serious money into the club now, the other investors like the patrons who have invested around £300k in the last year, the six shareholders who put up nearly £150k in loans to keep us going this season and not forgetting the staff, directors and volunteers at the club. I believe it’s been a team effort and as a support we have all played a part in helping to transform the club. The AGM was a real eye opener for me and we need to give John and Paul (and the club as a whole) the tools they need to continue the great work they are doing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
