Only reports I've seen said he, a 74yo man, was taken to Ninewells with his injuries, but nothing else.
Thanks for that. What should have been a good day out ruined by an impatient p***k. Hope he gets his just desserts and punished heavily.

Thanks . The location spread of the publications carrying the story makes me think it does have legs. He'd be a loss but the pain could be softened with a 7 figure transfer fee.

Where is the story about Fitzwater coming from? I've looked at the usual suspects but see nothing

They need to sit close to the defence because we can't pass worth a f**k so we're constantly under pressure. Hearts haven't had to work today where as we've ran around like headless chickens chasing passes that can't find a man. It's infuriating that we can perform so well against Celtic but look worse than schoolboy the next again weekend. I'm usually pretty positive but f**k me it's worse than pish right now.
out of all those midfielders we signed, you'd think there would be at least one who could cross the halfway line and make something happen. We've no divine right to win games but at least have a go. this would make your eyes bleed.

Ive said for ages ,Scrutinizor won't come on here when we get a favourable result.Perhaps his typewriter is knackered after all the criticism he's given us.No great loss however. But no doubt he'll be back when it goes ties up..
to be fair to Scrutinizer his posts are very lengthy and detailed. Must be very scary sitting in the dark in his maws bedroom typing them all out.

correct, smoke and mirrors. Livi had 5 players in their starting line up that were not at the club last season. The players that Celtic signed were , presumably, at a higher level experience and ability wise that any we could attract to our club but on yesterdays showing were lacking in demonstrating any fight for the cause. Two wingers whos inability to cross a ball properly and a midfield who loved passing sideways and backwards led to the " shock" result. It will in all probability start to gel for Celtic but jeez they were awful yesterday.

Get the 2 erse cheeks binned and get a larger top league in place.
thereby lies the real problem. You have to go back to season 1984/85 to see any other team( Aberdeen) other than Rangers ( in whatever guise ) or Celtic win the top league. Their dominance while providing much needed revenue for clubs also stifles /eliminates any real competitive nature in a league where perm any two from maybe eight is fighting to avoid relegation. Marketing the league and attracting sponsorship and funding would not be such a black hole if there was a real chance that the dominance of these two could be sustainably challenged. We go along in the hope that our team might pull off a shock result once in a while but are realistic to know that we will probably f*ck it up the following week against a team we would look to beat. I don't think any commission or review is going to come up with any revolutionary ideas otherwise it would have been done before.
Additionally, the quality of product on show often does not justify the levels of admission prices. TV broadcasts are extremely selective in where they devote their energies i.e. who is playing either of the big two to suit the " ive been a fan all my life " brigade but in truth who never set foot in Ibrox or Parkhead . That plus moderate exposure in England for ex pats or those of a bigoted nature down south.
In short a waste of time and money.

If Brighton are willing to spend a reported £18.2m on Edouard I would suggest they hang off for a week or so .. Based on tonight's performance they could probably save £18m.

Absolutely brilliant you boys. I hope when you get the first home game of next season ( if the fans are allowed) that you get a full house. Outstanding achievement, richly deserved. Envy of the highest order.

Foxy for Falkirk , please. All part of the master plan to team up with Holt and have the Bairns playing in the same league as Sauchie in a couple of years.

Back on the thread topic .....The number of goals we have lost down our right hand side this season is criminal. Get McMillan in there pronto. Don't get the love in for Devlin - he cannot defend. Now lost all post split games, absolute rubbish.

I'm going to take that as a compliment, thank you.

Any jokes written this century?
It's not the longevity of the joke it's the relevance.
man walks into a pub with his dog just as the football results were coming on the TV. Announcer says Falkirk lost 3-0 to which the dog lies on its back with 4 legs in the air. " that's great" says the barman, " what does he do when they win?"
" Don't know " says the man " I've only had him 4 months"

Falkirk players were doing their usual good deed visiting local hospitals' childrens ward and handing out presents. " it was heartbreaking to see their sad faces and hopelessness in their eyes" said Billy aged 6

I totally get guys that support other teams coming on here to take the pish, fair enough we are completely deserving of the ridicule.
Is it too much to ask that though that the standard of slagging be worth reading?
Most of the stuff so far is feeble, banal and sadly lacking in imagination.
The football is shite at least give us a wee giggle as a consolation.
Ok
i was walking passed the Falkirk Stadium the other day and saw a Falkirk Season Ticket nailed to a tree. " I'm having that" I thought, you can never have too many nails

The real cheaters are the players who pulled on that black jersey tonight and looked as though they could not give a fcuk. We have guisers in that side that are living on past reputations and should be shown the door .

Judging by the comments on here the football has not been great to watch but this is a strange decision with 4 games to go. You are still in with a great shout of going up as champions which is your main objective. Asking a lot of anybody to take charge and do the business. It's always the management team that shoulder the blame and rarely the players.

Livingston vs Motherwell - 9th April
in Scottish Premiership General Chatter
Posted
Slightly off topic but a big shout out to the Livi board for holding next seasons , season ticket prices at the same level for the 4th year in a row. Brilliant stuff. Motherwell leading the way in the free tickets for the unemployed and also recognising the importance of their fan base.
