Ticket update anyone?
Got tomorrow off. The idea of heading down to Larbert beer festival early tomorrow and not stopping til Saturday night is all consuming

More good POTY discussion on Falkirk daft. For me it has now been narrowed quickly over the last month, down to Morrison, Hendo or Captain Coll. Coll shading it at the moment

I know what you mean. Something you definitely notice in the highlights packages. The noise definitely doesn't come through. Just compare with Blair McNally's (football vlogger) video he uploaded from Saturday and it's SO noisy. I sit in the KM every match, and I didn't even realise just how loud those youngsters are until I watched Blair's video
It's a shame too that we can't just have scaffolding all the time in the vacant East space, and use it for broadcasting, as it would be nice to get a view of the main stand, like on BBC Alba, instead of a view of Grangemouth.
I'm not criticising btw. I am very grateful that people volunteer to provide this service.
Not wishing to criticise, rather give feedback as I think it’s something that should be relatively cheap and easy to fix. Feedback on here has been taken in good faith and fixed previously so thought it was worth mentioning.

So my first live falkirk tv effort was Saturday. Commentators - terrific. Picture quality - good. Buffering - good. Graphics pre match - terrific.
But wtf is up with the sound? It was like watching a covid game. Absolutely no sense of atmosphere portrayed. Is this a limitation of the camera or is it incorrect settings? Dampened the experience quite a bit

1789/2500 sold. Another 900 available.
A lot more than I thought. Will probably be up towards 2.5k all said and done. That end (3 sides) is going to look brilliant

Sure we will cope. Something about the Falkirk stadium. Just never seem to lose there
Incorrect. Was thrown by the Welsh mob after their first goal.
Fair enough. Straight to the Welsh mob then

Flare burn marks on the pitch. That’ll be a hefty bill straight to Airdrie

Kevin McAllister is a legend. There is no more fitting description, or worthy recipient of that tag (and probably never will be) Of other players I've seen, I'd be inclined to attach the same status to a certain Trinidadian magician. And, despite his relatively brief time at the club, a certain English one who liked scoring goals from the halfway line and direct from corners (against the same goalkeeper). Older fans will no doubt have players from earlier eras in mind.
Callum Morrison is, on his day, easily our most entertaining player. And our biggest attacking threat. He's had an excellent season. I'll be amazed if he does not win L1 Player of the Year. It's great that he has signed up for the next two years. I'm sure he'll make a decent impact in the Championship next season.
But Callum Morrison is not a legend and I do not consider myself even remotely "deluded" for holding that belief. There is such a thing as context. A bit of perspective from time to time would not go amiss.
What should a player do, now, to be considered a “legend”? New era will be talking to children and grandchildren about Morrison and rightly so.

Tait so good today. Run in the first half again had me thinking he’s better suited to a more forward role.
2nd half completely dominant after an even first half.
Onto next week and a huge away day party. Don’t know why but it feels like a fitting away to wrap up this league!
Also fair play to Hamilton (the players and management). Their fans have been an embarrassment in how they’ve turned on them but the team, in any other league 1 season, would’ve produced a very close title race

Double barriers to keep the NB hordes in the stand. The boring b*****ds.
Eta nothing keeping folk in the main stand tho . Discrimination IMHO
Surely they’ll be getting jumped at FT if we clinch it. Average age of the ultras is about 16, they’ll make a mockery of it

Boooo
Reckon our midfield will probably offer the defence enough protection for us to get a win.
Have my ticket for next week, Falkirk TV the order of the day today though.
Same, but have suffered too much shite to be selfish about not being there today. Let’s get it over the line

Something tells me Hendo will play tomorrow, even with half a leg. Not a chance he’ll want to miss the party if we do do it tomorrow

Bit late in the day but any way of getting more tickets out for Saturday? Would be a shame to have a fairly empty north stand. Any easy way of distributing some kids freebies?

Just had a look at league 1 top scorers. Burrell seems to have stalled and Morrison now breathing down his neck. Would be great if Morrison can usurp, I’m sure it’s the sort of thing he’s looking at too

As much as it's a laugh and I'm glad Ola is invested in our success, I can't help but feel it's a poor reflection overall.
Wasn't getting a sniff here and went out on loan and didn't pull up any trees.
I like the lad but he's not paid to be a cheerleader.
He won’t be getting a new contract, but he’s gone there and rattled the rat, will come back here as a cult hero, and will lap up the title celebrations - which btw will be the highlight of his career. 100% back down south to a Chippenham town or Dulwich Hamlet next, with all our best wishes

Is Ola allowed to play for us? Given he’s played for cove since the transfer window

If you buy that membership, that'll give you access to all streams within a full calander month. You'll most likely need to source a VPN (there are some decent free ones out there) but you'll be good to go after that. I turn on the VPN to log in and then turn it off once I load up the actual stream. Never had an issue with it.
Thanks. My question was maybe the wrong way round. For a 1 off game is it better to just purchase the pay per view rather than the membership?

Away in England on Saturday, what is current process for buying live FTV games? Do I have to buy this membership thing then also pay the 15 quid or whatever on the day of the game for the live stream, and then use vpn on Saturday to actually watch? Or does this subscription get me the live game? Any help appreciated

I think it's been mentioned before but what prize money can we expect for winning the title?
Figures from 2019, but doubt it looks much different now. Not huge differences between league 2 and league 1 prize money. Coming 4th in the champ however you’re already trebling this season’s prize money. Should help a bit with the hole we always have to fill

He's 7th or 8th IIRC. Dougie Moran got 107 and is the highest post-WWII.
He’ll be towards 80+ by the time he ends his next contract extension here. After that, any further contract extension would see him seriously threatening that record. In the modern game, an absolutely absurd servant to the club. What a boy. Testimonial soon

That was a Bartley masterclass. Stupendous high line when we can flick it over the top from our own half, whilst also defending far too deep whenever we had some meaningful possession. Could’ve been 0-3 at HT. queens problems lie massively at the feet of the setup - e.g, Bartley.
