Might be just me but given we are the most critical of our own club and how shite we are doing at the moment or past few years the fact you seem to be going out your way to highlight what we already know and making a prize walloper out of yourself.
Acceptance of your current position would go a long way. The only positive I can see from the forum is the constant bitching of the obvious.

Yes, which reinforces the fact that what we think is completely relevant.
You can't win games on thoughts alone.
Or are we all missing out here?

If we realise our capabilities, we will achieve the ambitions of around 90% of our support, and leave your pile of pish miles behind us!
If, if and if. My pile of shit are realistic, not living on past glories when you were a big team and we weren't and still aren't.

I think there's a term that includes ambitions and capabilities. Just need to add Falkirk FC

Lets all pull together and get us back to the place we think we belong.
Any club are where they are because that's how good they are.
Where you think you deserve to be is irrelevant, where you are is due to how good your team is.
What is it Bad Santa said?
Hold out both your hands, and fill one with dreams and the other with shit.

I agree with BFTD here, we have a knack of letting managers see out their contracts unless the manager walks away himself.
Barry has shown that he is inept at Div 2 level, and is mirroring his time at Clyde.
He remains our manager, but compared to previous managers, he appears to be his own man devoid of criticism and no intentions of being a he community manager the likes of Hately was when he was here.
As to pricing for games, it feels like we are bring shafted by keeping prices as high as they want and anyone not wanting to pay the over inflated prices can't be real fans.
We should change the ground from the Indodrill to Mushroom Factory. F d on shit and kept in the he dark

I’d be surprised if many Falkirk fans buy tickets for this given what we’ve be served up at home this season.

I say Get It Right Up Them.
Excellent. I love it when the OF fail at this stage.
Sorry, but the OF went through but Sevco didn't.
Looks like their trip to IKEA for a trophy cabinet is still on hold

I thought the media guy admitted he simply didn’t have time to conduct post match interviews with the gaffer due to time constraints and having to do everything himself kinda thing? If he’s choosing not to do interviews with local reporters or club media then that is piss poor but is that the case?
Again, I’m nae Barry Ferguson fan at all, I think he’s a cock, but he does seem to get it a lot worse than others would.
edited to add: whenever I used to watch Kelty highlights he’d always pop up at the end with an interview discussing the game etc.
He only sings when he's winning

Incorrect, unsurprisingly.
Scrolling through the list of threads I see your man "gravie" bumping his gums about my club and our fans and duly replied.
Believe me, Alloa match threads are not normally somewhere I'd go looking for a stimulating chat.
I was merely interested in why there was a post on the Falkirk forum, and the drivel and paranoia over your team's shortcomings coupled with the blame culture aimed at the BOD was so amusing.
Nothing wrong with some friendly winding up is there? Sometimes you need someone on the outside looking in to give a perspective on how things look to the neutrals.

Absolute pish. Not surprising from yourself though.
Relative to this league we are a very big fish. Unfortunately our successive BODs have waggled our flippers in such a way that we are swimming downwards at a rate of knots. No paranoia, no blaming outside agencies (once the disappointment of being pipped on PPG in 2020 died down).
Before anyone else tediously points it out, yes, we know we are here due to our own shortcomings. No, we don't consider ourselves superior, just far better resourced and grossly underperforming.
@Angus of the Mothey did ok in 19/20 and would probably have gone on to win the league if it had been completed. They were worryingly defensive though. In 20/21 they started ok, but completely lost the plot and had to go. You are right Holt made it worse, and an injury ravaged and completely confidence-less squad imploded at the end. Holt is, to most FFC fans, a huge problem as far as his attitude, recruitment and alleged interference in team affairs goes.
Lucky your not paranoid, you might have been upset otherwise.
Actions speak louder than words, inactions even more

You only need to head to the Falkirk thread to see the paranoia that equates to being a Bairns fan.
They need to get real and accept what they have at this moment in time.
They are now just a wee fish floundering in the seaside leagues.

Bit of a shock when Falkirk sacked Lee Millar and David McCracken near the end of last season, they had done well, and fair enough there was a blip towards the end, and Raith and Partick were their nemesis but Gary Holt seemed to make things worse and the club have got in a rut since.
We all love Gary

I get the impression that Queens Park are under pressure to get in the Championship, and it’s having an effect on their game.
Falkirk also, and with justification for the size of club, but the pressure doesn’t seem as intense as last year.Falkirk are still under the belief they are still a big club, but have poured money into a hole for a good few seasons now.
They forget that have a shiny Meccano stadium and a hearty following that teams would wish for, it's on the park where things need to be done. They do seem to have the knack of coaching away the skill of the players they sign.
QP would expect to progress up the leagues in consecutive seasons with the money being invested.
Still need to do the talking on the park.

Why I specifically included that last sentence. This division is wide open right now & any team from the top 6 COULD find themselves Champions, or promoted, come the seasons end. NONE of them have been convincing.
TBH, the way results are going, any team with a decent run could win it.
No team has been outstanding, and as you say, it's wide open.

Getting out of this league either by winning it outright or through the play offs is a must.
Relegation perhaps

It's been far from convincing for me too, but he's here til the seasons end, minimum. So dispense with the sacking talk. It will get/has got us absolutely nowhere.
We finished 5th last year, getting into the play offs would be a bonus, winning the league tremendous.
Ambitions and capabilities springs to mind

No because he gets fouled. Lee Miller did exactly the same thing.

So, not diving, but getting deliberately kicked to con the ref to penalise the opposition

Keena wins the free kick 9 times out of ten though because he's good at suckering defenders.
Is that a euphemism for diving?
