Easily our worst performance of the season.
 

It’s not that we don’t have the players to create, more that we don’t have anyone for them to create for! I really hope that Keena was carrying a knock and not that he’s fallen out with Sheerin because the decision to play that wee laddie up front on his own was completely baffling! It does appear that he’s determined not to play two up top and if he doesn’t change his mind on that I can’t see how we’re going to score enough to compete. If they’re available I would play Krasnique and Keena next week and, believe it or not, I would play Ompreon beside Keena because he does at least have some physical presence.

Mutch; Miller, McKay, Dixon, McCann; Krasnique; Nesbit, Telfer, McGuffie or Ross or Weekes 🧐; Keena, Ompreon

Only goes two up top when we are chasing a goal.

If Williamson was back I'd be tempted with a 3-5-2 with McCann being better at attacking than defending it seems the better option. Miller can't play as a wing back, so really needs Williamson

The problem with a 3-5-2 is that you’ve got 3 players not contributing anything to the attack.

That would be totally pointless imo in this league when most teams will park 10 men behind the ball against us.

Life is full of "IFS". You can only play with the "hand" you are dealt.

Now, if Williamson was back blah blah blah. But he wasn't, and had Ronaldo signed for Falkirk you might have won 3-2, but you didn't.

And if we had scored another 2 goals it would have been more reflective and 4-0, but we didn't.

Steady on. We were absolutely shite and Alloa deserved their win - but 2-0 was probably about right on the balance of play.

Both keepers made good saves and we missed a glorious chance each. Alloa also benefited from utterly hilarious defending for both of their goals.

Fair play to you for selecting quotes in a bid for some kind of argument when it has been unanimously agreed by everyone watching the game that Alloa were by far the better team and thoroughly deserved their victory.

Don’t waste your time trying to be reasonable with this lot.

They seem to regard a win against us even when we are chronically bad as something to celebrate like it’s some sort of achievement.

Bit like Stenhousemuir or Stirling Albion fans.

Very needy.

I don't think you can suggest what each formation brings in the way you have suggested. The three in the middle can line up in various different roles and shapes. The width from the wing backs tend to be key in the attacking sense and whilst Morrison is out we need it more than before.

He does? He can’t jump, hold the ball up, header the ball, hold defenders off or do literally any basic stuff with a football. He’s probably a better option than Wilson but that’s more about how howling Wilson is than anything else.

They 2 will comfortably be the worst full time players in the country. Nae other c**t will get close to those useless jobbers.

I am surprised how quick uses knocked the football player out of Herrington, he looked a pale shadow of himself yesterday. He was always in and about the faces of the opposition and fighting for every ball.

So far this season he's managed to get himself sent off. That's it. He's contributed nothing else.

Maybe we simply expect more.

Nobody really gives a f**k about Falkirk or Stenny, do they? Three points is nice and all, but still.

It's all about those Binos. Come back to us, boys, it's been too long.

I'm surprised time and reality exists in your head but thanks for agreeing with me it was pointless

I think if you read my reply, it's only a partial agreement, as I pointed out the fact it was the pointless post so far🤔

Being an Alloa supporter reality does indeed exist, we do realize we are a wee team who has been punching well above our weight.

Falkirk may have a 3/4 built mechano stadium, much bigger crowds than we could ever expect in Alloa, but your team is pish, and has been for s number of seasons now.

I am a tad disappointed that I have the most pointless post of the season ( so far) when blue tinted supporters are posting these -

£18 for the live stream? Yet we had fans of Peterhead complaining at paying the same for sitting at the Falkirk stadium 😂 

3-1 Falkirk tomorrow

Spence with all 4.

Quite fancy us to win comfortably tomorrow. A feeling that comes around a couple of times per season and is often wrong.
