It's being discussed here and the null and void thread, where else do you want it to be, Falkirk supporters are by far making the biggest fuss.

It's just that there's more of us.

So are you not bothered if we fail to get promoted?
Irrespective of how bad the Championship is it is the lowest level that Falkirk should ever be playing in.
Whilst the Championship is barely relevant to the powers that be the level we are currently at does not even register in the corridors of power.

Especially when you are constantly howling at the moon as we do as a club.

We definitely need players in especially if there is going to be a fixture pileup.  They need to be the right kind of loan though. We have a history of getting either experienced players that are past it or young players that are nowhere near ready for first team action.

My prediction based off @The Phoenixcryptics and some murmurings elsewhere.

Clubs for some reason really don’t want 18 games. We’ll play 27 with an extended season and no playoffs from league 1 to champ. 

Lowland league canned it seems. Suits a lot of people. No relegation from league 2, playoffs from league 2 to league 1 will still be played.

As per yesterday’s post, any players we are looking at getting in, must be better than we got currently holding the shirts. Hoping that Holt is using his knowledge and experience of clubs that he can lean on. No more mediocre end of life jobbers.

Holt didn’t sign a player at Livingston according to an interview with Martindale at the weekend so not sure what quality he will bring on that front

IF we do end up having to play more fixtures to see the season out, midweek games will be an issue unless someone has their sh*t together and the floodlights are fixed (I doubt it) or have that arranged for things normalising (well as much as they can anyway).

We may have to ground share? Alloa may be a possibility or Stenhousemuir

Good because he can’t run 

[Ranaldo Bairn 3,653]

Beck is streets ahead of Francis and Sammon.

Faint praise, I know, but...

As would Joe Chalmers at the moment but I think that says more about our current squad than it does about their footballing ability.

First game back likely to be Scottish cup on 23rd v Arbroath.

would rather get that out the way first so would be happy with that. Build a bit of match fitness and any win becomes a bonus.

Farcical. You may aswell give them a bye.  No game for weeks and no chance to get any new players integrated.  Whilst they've had time to spend 500k on doing up their side.The SFA taking the piss.

100% spot on. A team playing every week and training twice a week V a team who’ll have not a single minute of match fitness and 2 full weeks training. Shocking.
