This appeared on my Facebook newsfeed today. Not sure if it qualifies strictly as taxidermy but gave me a chuckle.

Enjoyed that today. Played well 1st half and as said by others EF gave us a few problems in the 2nd half. We’re playing well but my worry is not converting good possession into goals often enough. Hope Kerr is ok for next week as I think he’s shown he’s really improved the midfield since he arrived and is a must pick. And by the way your mince pies are boggin.

It’s anyone’s guess how the game pans out in these conditions. It’s wild out there.

Wow wtf happened there. Ref was booking anyone that looked the wrong way at him. Not surprised they equalised so late as we had two defenders, two centre mids, a winger and FIVE centre forwards on at the end. Ecstatic with the 3 points but we make it hard for ourselves.

Thoroughly enjoyed my first visit to the new Falkirk Stadium. We are starting to look like a team. They all know their jobs and substitutes can slot into the system. Think we missed Watson marauding down the right but Walker settled eventually. Easton was excellent and Gallagher & Smith work well together. If McGills effort at the end has been other side of the post score line might have been more realistic but can’t complain about a performance and result like that away to Falkirk. As a Bairns fan said earlier McInroys a player. Hope we can hang onto him beyond January.

Thanks

Anyone else having trouble buying tickets online? I understand away supporters can pay at the gate on Saturday but is it cash only?

Yeah it works from time to time but as someone on here said a while back he’s got a 1st touch like a brick wall. I like Gal but think he’s a finisher 1st and foremost. I get frustrated watching us being so defensive at home with no width. Get the ball in from wide areas and he’ll give you a return but we are playing with big McGill wide right. Pleased with the result and a lot of aspects of our performance. expected a good bit more from you guys tho and thought we were in trouble when Sammon came on.

I know it may be forced due to availability of players, injury, covid etc but playing 4-1-4-1 at home is murder. Gal can’t trap cement up front and nothing really sticks to him so it’s hard going. Pleased with the win tho and with bodies hopefully returning this could be the start of a wee run.

Clueless, inept, gutless, pedestrian, boring, insipid s#ite. I really don’t know how that can improve. We play with no width, no pace in midfield (I’m 54 & two stone overweight but I think I could give McCabe and Agnew a run for their money in a sprint) and worst of all no heart. Do you think I’ll be able to get my season ticket refunded?

Anyone know the attendance from last night?

Fantastic 2nd half tonight. The support have needed a result like that for a number of seasons now. Hopefully give the manager, team, support and town the belief to take this on and get back to where I believe we should be. A decent run of results gets punters back gives teams a lift. Here’s hopping this is only the start.

Afraid not. £2 against Annan.

Didn’t take too long to slam the brakes on and go into reverse. Don’t understand their rationale at all.

I understand they’ve took a hit over the last 18 months but this is a bit much I think. Especially with the lack of communication. I think they’ll lose more than they gain. I’ll be getting my ST - glutton for punishment.

Doesn’t affect me personally but I’m hoping it’s a typing error and it’s meant to be 65 rather than 75.

Can’t believe I missed out Super Sammy Conn. A legend if ever there was one.

Top 5 I posted are as above but I could have permed any 5 of the group above. What a squad to have. And it doesn’t include Busby & Jarvie who were slightly ahead of my time.

#mytop5players Just had a go at this on twitter. How do you break this down to just 5??

I’m really not too fussed. We’ve had better players leave over the years and still carried on. Going by the number of and speed of Murray’s signings he’s been planning for it. Best of luck to him, great engine and attitude if final ball can leave a bit to be desired at times.

I’m desperately trying not to get too carried away as there’s two possibly four really difficult games coming up. But I can’t wipe this smug grin off my face for love nor money this morning. Couldn’t believe how bad Falkirk were. First time I can remember playing them in 30+ years when I had no worries about facing them. Anyway well done to IM, the players and everyone involved I never expected this two months ago never mind start of the season. Can I be first to say Murray must stay!!

It’s been interesting seeing the improvement in the team since Stuart Millar left. I’m wondering if there’s a link. Is Murray finally getting to be his own man? All of a sudden we’ve signed two genuine midfielders with experience of the league, the two McKays dont appear to be un droppable (well Jack anyway) and we are playing some good stuff. Sabiatini is out the picture and Robert is used sparingly. I don’t know, it’s guess work on my part but a few weeks ago I’d have been not fussed if Murray left at the snd of the season but now I’m hoping he stays and gets a full proper season run at it and see where we end up.

Yeah from time to time. Pre pandemic it was to save scratching around for coppers when I went tuppence and h’penny over my £30 petrol budget. Since pandemic been using contactless constantly so no need. Tho was always a good game to play see if you can stop it dead on a full pound.

Just for info Hamilton isn’t a real derby. Motherwell and Rovers way ahead of them. I’d even consider Patrick a derby before Hamilton.

I’m really not sure the manager is necessarily the whole problem. If he’s being dictated to who he has to play he’s pissing into the wind. Still don’t understand his tactics, game plan or constant positional changing but he appears to be working with his hands tied behind his back. If there is no pressure being put on him regards team selection and who to pick them he’s an idiot and needs to go.
