"No Plan B" isn't true. We played a different system yesterday (which didn't work whatsoever) and some games have been won either after noticeable in-game changes (Kelty away, QotS away, Alloa at home) or pre-game (Annan away/QotS at home, Montrose away). Given how many goals we've scored/chances created from cutbacks this season, I think it's fair to say that that is a clear plan of Rankin's; usually overloading one side and either using someone like Barjonas, Smith or MacDonald to open the play up, or Barjonas, Longridge, Zanatta etc will link up on that overloaded side to then cut the ball back for someone in the middle.
I don't really like how much I've defended Rankin this season as I still don't think he's good enough in the medium-term, however I do think he can get us promoted this season so I'm willing to see how he responds to this poor run of form.
Rankin must stay…..singalong now…

I’ve heard that there are discussions going on between owners of Accies & Airdrie re potential merger of both clubs……..with a new name being Lanarkshire Celtgers to appease the “loyal” factions of both supports.

Ok, here’s the scoop. Our DOF, who by the way I despise, claimed at the forum that he last week approached Morrison with a view to signing him(stifle your laughter for a moment and humour me please) He was told, thanks but no thanks as he was signing a pre contract with a team down south in January. Falkirk are looking to get some sort of cash for him in January as they have players they want in which will allow him to leave then rather than at the end of the season.
Shame that we all second guessed you apart from the nonsense of an approach re CM………. as far fetched as your home crowd figures on 16th Dec

Just some interesting ho news about a very important player for them.
That will either be the rumour about Stephen McGinn retiring or Callum Morrison heading south …….both of which might well be true or far fetched……guess time will tell but hey if McGinn does hang up his boots then Scotty Arfield will just come a few months earlier than anticipated to replace him.
if I were you though be better checking out credibility of the alleged signings you are making…

Surely we can't lose to the same part time team at home 2 times in a couple of weeks? Under Rankin it wouldn't surprise me. We have got a couple of star players out now with injuries but with the squad we have we should still be winning games like this no disrespect to Kelty who are a decent side. We have 7 games now until we play Falkirk again if we still believe we can win the league then I genuinely would say we would need to win every one of those with Rankin in charge I highly doubt we will do that though. Seen there's a fans forum tomorrow will be interesting to hear what gets asked at that. Focusing back onto this game I've got a feeling it will be quite a poor game to watch but we will just about scrape a win and Rankin will act like everything is fine again Accies 2-1 Kelty Hearts
Will your club not save some cash for player reinforcements by putting all the home support & the 25 Kelty fans in the temp stand……asking for a friend

Point still stands
They 'technically' do.
New combined XI
Fulton
Yeats Lang Donaldson Mccann
Hendo Spencer
Morrison Nesbitt Miller
Maciver
Not sure Fulton that superior to our two incumbents tbh.

Would get rid of McKay, Lawal, Allan.
Upgrade on Bisland too if at all possible.
Crucially a new striker who can play the Maciver role. One single injury there and our team may turn to muck.
Other than that it looks difficult to find an upgrade on what we have for the money we have. As shown by real quality like Ross being kept out of the team. It’s such an effective, settled 11 atm. Nvestmen
We signed a few too many attackers last Jan and meant we didn’t ever really find our best line up. (Our best run of form came when we started Gary Oliver in the Maciver role for example).
On a side note how good to see that the investment in the franchise football models at Livvie & Queens Park is eventually finding its true level with both propping up their respective divisions

Any truth in rumour that Rankin to be replaced by Alex Neil

First of all, a deserved win for Falkirk. Looked ominous from the first five minutes. However, we had no luck. Kilday in the warm up, then Scott Martin. If he got injured in his needless charge from goal then Fulton only has himself to blame. Penalty was a nonsense. How was he supposed to get out of the way? Morrison and Miller were the difference but Falkirk defended superbly in the second half. They had to, with that shite keeper. Very niggly game, 27 fouls but felt like more. No one was allowed to pass without a foul or an attempt at a foul, both sides. Lewis Smith clearly our best player, again; That Rankin left him on the bench for so long shows what a poor manager he is. I'd be delighted if he got sacked but sadly there is no chance if that happening.
Good turnout of Accies fans. It was certainly a lot busier around where I sit but it will probably be back to 1200 or so next week.
You mean 500

Mate .. don’t blame the fans for the club fucking up …nothing short of disgraceful the way the ticket fiasco has played out ….
Hi mate
Suggest you reread what is being said…….but in case you missed it I will repeat it here. We were inconvenienced by your club’s behaviour & don't need patronising comments as per your fellow fan’s quote …….. Accies by name but Awkward by nature

It caused literally thousands of people massive inconvenience because they had to make what was an unnecessary visit to the club shop when they could have been doing other things. Not everyone lives five minutes from the stadium. Never mind Falkirk having to open the shop for longer hours than normal, all of which costs money.
You may have told us it would happen - and Falkirk expected it - but until your club confirmed the presence of a pay gate everyone had to jump through hoops to get tickets.
Hardly a big fuss about nothing.
That quote typifies a supporter of a club with no heart or soul for fellow fans - sad but there it is I guess

Abysmal? Is this your first season supporting Accies?
I'll give you the Kelty cup game (I wasn't there but by all accounts we were very bad).
We get you don't like Rankin but face the facts, he's not going anywhere. We're top of the league, we score goals almost every week and we concede very few goals at the same time. Crack a smile and just attempt to be positive for once.
Thanks Mr Rankin

Think for the next game at TFS we should limit Hamilton to 1000 tickets. That'll learn 'em.
Surely there is one zero too many there

We won't make any more or less money from the concession stands as they are outsourced but you keep up your rather weird obsession about it being a tax dodge if it makes you feel witty.
I can't remember if they take card payments or not as I don't really buy anything. Something tells me they do, though, as the wife has come back with a couple of steak pies before and she rarely carries cash.
Convince us if you can
