Puzzling why on line wasn’t available, but the club has acted promptly to get this corrected. Well done. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention from an environmental factor to everyone who took their cars to the stadium when completely unnecessary or those who paid extra for postage as they believed this option was unavailable. Feck me, I was only joking! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granted it’s less of a factor than inconveniencing fans but whether you like it or not unnecessary travel is a big issue. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can also use the subsidised HPC chargers at the stadium while I wait. I think Tesco should close and only do online. Think of that environmental contribution. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So disappointing to hear McGlynn say at 3:12 - "No easy games in League 1" I get it that you don't come on Falkirk TV and say "We should beat Clyde 4 -0", I get it, you don't want to get the opposition players all hyped up so that they come out and play a blinder against us. But neither do you come on and talk as if we should be really troubled by them. Just say that we are going to be really professional, we've done our homework on them and will be looking to take all 3 points. Ray McKinnon was always coming away with the "no easy games in League 1" shite and was rightly castigated for it. -3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No manager or player has ever come out and said "this game will be easy and we're looking to run up a cricket score".

We were relegated however because we were shite and deserve to be where we are. Given all of the crap that's happened since it's reasonable to expect that it may just take time to turn things around. Yes, we've had a bigger budget than most of the league (although how some folk can claim we've had a bigger budget than Dunfermline this year puzzles me a bit) but we've had some absolute charlatans in charge of spending it. Whilst fans of other clubs jump on the bandwagon to too great an extent, it's no surprise that some of them feel we think of ourselves as being Billy big baws given the comments of some of our posters. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd like to hope that after nearly 4 seasons down here the talk of strolling the league would be long gone. Should we have done better over the last three seasons yes of course. Considering the cash spent it's ludicrous that we haven't even managed a playoff spot with the exception being our first season down when covid fecked us royally. We're now heading in the right direction but even so we've dropped points recently to kelty and queen's so that would emphasise the fact that you cannot take 3 points for granted in this league at any point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthStander1876 Posted March 31, 2023 Share Posted March 31, 2023 The fact of the matter is that he's right. Clyde won't just let us walk over them, yes if both teams play to 100% of their ability we would hammer them. Never underestimate a side fighting for survival, apart from maybe Peterhead, underestimate them all you like 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
