18BAIRN76

Obviously not seeking to distract too much from this weekend, but a wee reminder that if anyone wants to see the plucky Bairns take on the best side in the league at New Douglas Park on 13th April, you can get tickets here: https://app.fanbaseclub.com/Fan/Tickets/SelectType?fixtureId=5182

Nothing grinds my gears more than labelling fans legitimately criticising a bogging performance as 'knicker-wetters' etc etc. A complete non-argument which doesn't engage in any meaningful discussion.

What's McFadden saying? Turned it off at the final whistle.

Patterson lasting the full 90 is totally baffling.

Adams and McLean coming out... no Shankland...

How do we convince Livramento to say yes?

McSauce to headbutt that Hume boy, any odds

These lot are terrible as well, which makes this even worse.

Between Naismith cancelling his contract saying they're not the same club and the fact he just called them 'Ireland', at least there might be a few dribbling messes about.

Can't be losing to these absolute fucking weirdos. Get it sorted second half ffs.

patterson off plz

A suggestion or something you've heard?

I think that if he was to finish top goalscorer in the entire country, you’d have to give it to Morrison tbh.

Thought he got it a wee bit tight when he was here. He wasn’t brilliant, but he was an 18 year old kid signed at the last minute by a panicking Hartley and chucked into an absolutely bogging side. You could see he was quite technically gifted, if a bit raw. Fair play to him.

We’re so fucking massive

Get aff our pitch ya fascist weirdos

This is why it’s such a tricky one. It’s all dependant on individual interpretations. I disagree with others in that I think the level you’re at does have to be a factor. It’s why at the start of this conversation I said Morrison is on his way to potentially becoming a legend, but he’s not there yet. Length of time at the club does come into it for me, outwith achievements such as winning a Scottish Cup which would make someone a legend in my eyes. It would be dependant on him doing it for us at a higher level for him to enter that conversation. Going unbeaten in League One would be an incredible achievement no doubt, it would be an season that would live long in the memory, but labelling some players who were good enough to get us out of League One but (potentially, who knows) might not cut it for us long-term, even in the Championship, as ‘ legends’ feels a bit strong for me.

Callumn Morrison is the first player in a LONG time we've had who could potentially reach legend status btw. He's not there yet, but he's already been here for a long time, particularly by modern day football standards. He's been our best player through exceptionally bad times and now good ones. He's scored some absolute pearlers and constantly changes games out of nowhere. The club stuck by him through injuries and now he's sticking by the club, committing for two more years, when he could probably easily have gone elsewhere.. Plus, unless I'm mistaken, he's already in the top 10 list of the clubs all time scorers. Fucking love him.

Absolutely devastated after a comprehensive 4-1 win in front of 5600+ home fans, whilst your mob’s areas have completely collapsed - likely to not even make the playoffs with one of the biggest budgets in the league. All while being managed by one of the mankiest men in Scottish football. Really annoyed mate x

f**k Paul Hartley

Bisland will be playing League Two next season any bet, he’s so bad man MacIver still looking off it for me. Always reminded of how good business it was getting Morrison signed up, he’s going to be huge next season. Creates stuff out of nothing. He must be top scorer in the league now?

Grouping Doyle and Tumilty with the other two is harsh imo. Tumilty was fine for us in the Championship and Doyle was also okay in a team that would probably have scraped promotion under better management (and the absence of a pandemic...). Covid at least spared us from having to see Mercer in the flesh, on stream was bad enough. Ryan Williamson was, well... Ryan Williamson. Giving it large to the KM, only for Morrison to pop one in from 30 yards in 90+4, is defo a highlight of the season.

I did have Oliver down as a test of how ruthless McGlynn was going to be tbh. But, aye, it does give me ‘out of loyalty’ vibes. As I said, there’s no doubt he’s a talented footballer, but I do think a lot the ‘Gary Goals’ stuff is recency bias covering up the fact he’s played little more than a bit part this season, and when he did play more last season, it was in a team that was ultimately miles off it. He was out of position a lot of that time to be fair. I just don’t imagine he’d have had many offers in the Championship if we hadn’t kept him, but I may be wrong. Again, I’m not exactly foaming at the mouth about it, but I think we’ll need better next season.

Hmm. I get the continuity thing and he’s been a useful player, but he’s one that I don’t think has ever really stood out at League One level and I can’t help but think it’s a wage who could have gone on someone a bit better tbh. Not too fussed as he has his uses but … meh.

Am I right that we haven’t worn the heritage kit since Edinburgh away?
