  1. Mcclelland's biggest weakness at us was dealing with anything physical, even Gary Oliver had a field day with him last season in the cup against Hibs so I'm looking forward to seeing what big Ross MacIver does to him. 

    Gibson and Mckechnie probably the only two players left who caused us issues last season for Queens and we'll see what we could have had in Alex Ferguson given someone mentioned we were keen on him over the summer. 

  2. U18's drew 1-1 with Montrose today, Montrose keeper saving a penalty and making another great save at the end to keep it that way. Rhys Walker & Logan Sinclair played the full 90. 

    U16's was 3-2 when I left, 2-2 at half time after a goal and assist each for our striker & winger and then an absolute peach of a goal for our third from the very impressive striker.

    Fair few decent looking prospects in both squads. 

  3. Easy to jump to conclusions when you've only been given a snippet of the information and I was guilty of expecting the worst so I apologise for that. 

    In reality the club have done, in my eyes, the best thing for us by selling the remaining shares to the patron's in order to raise extra funds(the FSS money has already been accounted for) for a few more signings. Also fantastic to hear the patron's and other shareholders have gifted FSS the shares they need to get to the 25%+1 showing we are all working together for the better of Falkirk football club. 

    McGlynn seems to have us sorted on the park this season and from the outside the board have done a fantastic job of sorting out the off the park mess they inherited just under 2 years ago.

    Don't get that team at all. It's an opportunity for both minutes and a good look at the fringe players, aswell as a chance to rest and avoid injury for members of our current, very obviously best 11. 

    I think he's tried to freshen it up without completely changing everything. Gives him a chance to see Hogarth with the starting back four.

    Disappointing. So I've paid £18 on Saturday for a dodgy stream. 

    Thank god I'm only on holiday once a year!

    Might be available to overseas subscribers. PPV is rarely available because of the 3pm UK ban on Saturday's. Can't obviously offer it tonight as Ayr are the home team so it's up to them to offer that.

    Normally tells you on the match preview whether it will be on FTV so when that comes out we'll know.

  6. With Miller out injured would make sense for us to bring in a winger on loan if there is indeed funds for one more loan signing.

    If there's a further signing on top of that I'd be hoping for a striker which is mental to think given how much on here we harped on about needing another option in the middle of the park this summer. Hendo & Spencer have been a dream pairing so far.

    The Edinburgh keeper is Aidan McAdams who played in goals for Ayr in our Scottish Cup quarter-final last season - if my memory serves me correctly he played a blinder that night too, only beaten by a penalty and a deflection. Would prefer him to Hogarth if I'm honest.

    Have a watch of Edinburgh's highlights last week, he has errors in him too. We're never going to get the finished article of a goalkeeper at this level, Hogarth & Long are excellent options.

    Whilst I jest, in all seriousness, that will put McKay even further down the pecking order. Will he be happy to take a wage for a season with no football played meaning no one would be willing to take a punt once his contract is up, or realise if he still wants to play for the next few years he will need to find a club where he features more regularly 

    Given Holt signed off on his deal I'd imagine he'll be sitting pretty on it for the next year. Unless by some miracle another full time club fancies him.

    Lawal doesn't have the pace either to play out wide. In fact he's slower than nesbitt.

    I would very much doubt there will be a change of goalkeeper .  If he was to continue making errors though that would be a different story but I'd expect Long to keep his place for the moment.

    Nesbitt does plenty of running and is constantly on the go but he's not quick or explosive. Lawal on the other hand has a good turn of pace he just doesn't move about as much as Nesbitt.

    Lawal played out wide left against Civil Service and managed to skip by his man to get to the byline a fair few times. Also last season I can remember him bursting through the middle of the park too.

  10. Hogarth
    Yeats Donaldson Lang Mccann
    Spencer Henderson
    Agyeman
    Morrison MacIver Miller/Lawal

    Long's been brilliant but Hogarth's not came here to sit on the bench so given Long's error against Alloa I suspect Hogarth will get a start. 

    5-0 Falkirk, MacIver with 2(a header + one off his arse) and a goal each for Agyeman, Morrison and Lang.
