We are an exceptionally poor team right now. Falkirk were worse than anything we've played in the league this season and we still didn't even come close to taking advantage of that.
Ferrie probably saved us from a really embarrassing result. Can't say I'm all that fussed about being out of this tournament, but I continue to be seriously concerned about the consistent mistakes at the back, our lack of urgency going forward, and the fact that this group of players clearly has absolutely no confidence in their own ability.
It's pretty clear that Veldman is going to get sacked sooner rather than later. Airdrie away next week (on TV too, so everyone can see it) is a real worry.
Sometimes signing loads of young players from academies down south isn't wise. Don't understand how you can go so backwards over the summer with all that money.

Howe Knox and Gibb ?
Some of the U18's, Howe's a winger(the goalscorer from last night) Knox is a defensive midfielder and not sure about Gibb.

Does anyone know how to switch payment to FSS from PayPal to direct debit? Cant actually see anything on their email with details how to do this
Fill in the little form at the bottom of this page then it takes you to the details for the FSS account so you can easily set up the standing order with your bank.

Did anybody stick out? Can we look forward to seeing one break through soon?
Seem to have the academy teams set up to play the same way as our first team so we were a 4-2-3-1. Standouts for me were our centre mid pairing who both looked to get on the ball all the time and keep things ticking as well as getting involved in the rough side of the game. There weren't really any players who let themselves down to be fair, centre back pairing cleared everything that was thrown into our box.

U18's won 1-0 tonight against Livi in the scottish cup. Good tempo to the game, very few chances but our keeper made a couple of cracking saves in the first half.

We weren't terrible but too many of our attacking threats weren't at it tonight. Ross didn't do much when he came on but he should have started ahead of Oliver with Agyeman in behind MacIver.
Disappointed McGlynn didn't try change anything but we've seen that before. Still top of the league and Accies didn't look up to much.

Interesting listening to the Accies fan on the Falkirk Daft podcast talk about Barjonas lacking fitness at the start of the season having come from a part time club. Didn't seem to affect Agyeman, he was our fittest player in preseason.
Hoping with Nesbitt out injured we bring Agyeman back in behind MacIver and put Ross out wide as him and Morrison will have field days against Tumilty & Longridge.
Tumilty red card(stupid early foul trying to lay down a marker and a late second booking when he's tired after 60 minutes) and 3-1 Falkirk, MacIver, Morrison and Lang with the goals.

Having seen both teams at close hand , would say Falkirk more clinical at going forward but Accies don't give much time or space on the ball and stingy in defence got 1-1 written all over it , best of luck though as will be between you two for the title
When I watched the highlights of your game against Accies they looked very fortunate not to concede a foul for the clumsy tackle on Daramola when it was 0-0.

Falkirk to bottle it in a big game as per usual.

And the only other time I can think of is when Leon Mccann bodied him in the corner.

You seriously think that Williamson had a decent game?
Taking emotion out of it I can't remember him doing much wrong especially given how honking we know he is defensively.
Incredible he's managed to play so many games on the bounce for them right enough, just goes to show he didn't fancy it at us.

Having a look at the highlights again and for their penalty it’s a similar situation to Burrell’s goal for Cove. Lang has committed to the tackle and McCann is just watching as their number 11 is standing in acres of space. You wouldn’t expect both players to miss the ball but McCann really needs to switch on to any potential danger and make sure he’s there to cover.
Not having that as Mccann's fault as Lang should really just pass that man onto Donaldson instead of charging into the tackle.

The defending for both the goals we conceded yesterday was criminal, parted like the red sea for the second.

MacIver's absolutely pivotal to how we play but he still misses some sitters. That one he mishit at 1-0 down yesterday was a tap in. Still 4 goals and 1 assist in 7 games can't be grumbled at.
Morrison with 5 goals and 2 assists already in the league long may it continue.

Fantastic result against a good Montrose team, Blair Lyons fucking loves shafting us.
Nesbitt injuring himself making his first slide tackle of the season sums him up. Get Agyeman back in the 10 and Ethan Ross out wide next week please super John.
Me screaming 'Don't shoot' just as Morrison plants the winner in the top bin. Scenes.

I simply can't explain the joy of watching the opposition assistant manager chase the ball down the byline in the 93rd minute after his teams been wasting time since the 52nd minute of the game. COYBBBBBBBBBB

Rumour going round the pub last night that Maciver has picked up a knock in training. Hopefully not bad enough to keep him out.
If it is I'd be throwing Agye up top, different players obviously but means you aren't missing that physical presence up there.

Thought he'd have done a bit better than the southern league in England.

Not saying McGlynn had no influence but I do doubt he was offered more elsewhere.
If it’s true we did offer Tumilty a deal then presume it wasn’t down to McGlynn which made him join Hamilton instead but being offered a better deal.
Anyway could go back and forth all day without knowing whether he was offered more elsewhere. What matters is he’s with us and proving to be a key influence in our team, as with Spencer.
Everything about the Tumilty deal screams to me that we were in pole position but then had to pull out as we didn't have the funds(due to signing Lang, Spencer & Miller), could be that Hamilton came back in again with an increased offer but they had already announced him as leaving so I think the first versions the most plausible.

Great to see a few of the youngsters going out on loan, hopefully get some minutes under their belts.
Just goes to show the wonders McGlynn has done with our squad as there's not many I'd have us do without this season.

Pretty shite draw money wise getting QP but at least it's at home. Another good test against a team from the league above.

Is Ethan Ross left sided?
Right footed but can play on either side.

Brilliant replacement for Calvin Miller, a quick and direct player who gets at the fullback. Full season would have been better but i'll take until January.
Goal and what is essentially an assist in this game from him.
