  1. I think Falkirk are a great team. Let's see what Sc&mbags pretending to be Falkirk supporters red dot this positive statement, just to show what idiots they are for all to see
  2. Question: Is that the first time in our history that we've wen't through a full league season unbeaten away? If so what an amazing acheivment.
  3. My brother was at Murrayfield taking match photos for Falkirk Rugby club - they won the League cup. He'll be chuffed. My opinion of MacIver certainly did improve. I can see his value a bit more. Still can't help thinking if we kept Burrell how many more goals we would have scored. There is a reason the other players who voted for team of the year didn't put him in the team, and I would suggest they might know more than we do? Could be wrong though. So yes, he went up in my opinion today.
  4. Luckily I was "abroad" so got to stream the game. Fairly limped over the finishing line there. It was never going to be easy today but I was looking for more of an "up and at 'em" display. On the bright side, the way the last part of the game went made sure there's no need to take my laxative tonight. I think it was a mistake to take Morrison and Nesbitt off. Especially Nizzy. The players must all be really tired by now, just wanting it over. I hope they are raring to go next week and put on a show worthy of the monumental effort they have put in this season. "once more unto the breach dear friends".
  5. I think the "once in a lifetime achievement" claim is an understatement. I am in my 60's. My dad was at the 57 cup final. His dad supported Falkirk from about 1910. I don't know if his dad supported Falkirk, but if he did he was just about old enough to be around at the formation of the club in 1876. None of them saw an invincible Falkirk team. That's a once in a four lifetime event for me (if we manage to get over the line, nothing for granted). And of course for the overwhelming number of supporters everywhere, they have never experienced it and never will.
  6. don't let it end like this, a sending off and an own goal. You couldn't make it up. Settle for a draw in a heart beat. Come on Falkirk.
  7. I know MacIver has become poplular and has scored a good few important goals, but I am still in two minds about him. He certainly has a great ability to tap in a goal from a a few inches, that is for certain. A goal is a goal so I'm not being sarcastic, evey one counts. I see him as a good sub, not as our central striker. If I am on the fence about MacIver, then my brother certainly isn't. He has seen him play about 6 times this season and he is fairly scathing about him. He doesn't see a footballer there - no dribbling and swerving as you would expect from a striker, no great ball control, no rushing past defenders. He just sees a slightly akward, not very athletic guy. I don't know what Ross has done to him, but I don't agree with my brother. But it is interesting how someone with no horse in the race can see that.
  8. Yes, they are both attention seeking morons. I have blocked both of them for red dotting me everything I post even when it is very postive, like this season has been brilliant.
  9. Anyone know how to report someone who is trolling you?
  10. Can I speak to a moderator in private please?

     

  11. must be great for the Ultras to see the players singing their songs with such feeling. Well done to the young Ultras who have changed the atmosphere at the stadium this season. Brilliant
  12. Thanks for posting this selfie of you so we can laugh at it.
  13. Yesterday was absolutely ridiculous. It's like it was a dream. To see our team run away with the league, flatten a team that isn't that bad and still be unbeaten and the post game celebrations is truely the things dreams are made of. I have endured the ups and downs of being a Bairn since my first game around 1970, some for even longer. We've witnessed great days and the worst. If we do finish the season unbeaten I feel this is the best season in my lifetime. Such a vibe going on around the club, it's wonderful.
  14. Be a nice touch for the last game of the season if McGlynn played Hogarth one half and Long the other.
