  1. Used to play this game 2 maybe 3 years ago. Was it not called Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket Powered Battle Cars?

    Buying a PS4 next month and this will 100% be my first purchase.

    Eta - notice someone else called it SARPBC

  2. I've lost count how many times Houston has said he won't bring in a player unless it improves the quality of our squad. The chances of finding a player with a proven ability at a higher level are very slim at the start of the summer, but now is the time these types of player become available. I'm happy to wait and see who he brings in over the next month or so before I start calling him lazy again. It's also worth remembering we have offered deals to strikers who have then signed for a Premiership team.

    On Miller signing, I would be happy for him to sign but only if there was still room for another striker in the budget, imagine there would be with Botti away to Swansea.

  3. Despite the winnings being minimal I had my most enjoyable win a the weekend.

    Noticed that skybet was extremely slow at updating goals on the queens game, so when Annan went 3-2 up I was still being offered the £9.16. Jumped at the chance to cash out.

  4. Do folk really think we Should matching Premiership wages for players like Clarkson or Keatings?

    The way I see it most players if offered £1k a week at both Premiership and Championship will opt for the top level club 9/10 times. The only ways to attract a higher quality of player is to pay over odds (Hibs, Hearts, Rangers and us last year with MacDonald) or wait until these players have to no other options than to sign. The latter worked for us after Loy couldn't get a deal at St Johnstone and we were the back-up.

  5. On a slight tangent I've found online Bingo to be highly addictive.

    Similar to Bert Raccoon I played it a few times whilst bored and found myself with about £100 in my account, half hour later it was all gone. Did this about 10 times over a couple of weeks before realising I was thick as shit. Stick to small stake singles/doubles and the occasional accy now.

    Kept a wee running total of how much I'm up/down for a year and a bit, partly to make sure I'm not losing ridiculous amounts but mostly cause it's interesting to know.

  6. Thanks for all your glowing reviews of Taylor Morgan. I feel you've painted a picture of what we can expect from him.

    I regrettably confirm that we have signed him. I will be sure to keep you guys updated with how young Taylor gets on as I'm sure you'll all be desperate to monitor his progress.

    xox

    I seem to remember when we signed him being told Ostersunds wanted him to be first choice next year and this loan was just for fitness. Clearly a load bollocks.

  7. Anyway, back to my original point. I appreciate Alston and Sibbald are still young(ish) but their time with Falkirk must be coming to an end. Surely a surprise promotion is the only thing that would keep both or one of them at the club beyond this season?

    Or they love the club so much they stay forever.

    In all seriousness Alston isn't the same class as McGrandles/Fulton/Kingsley and won't be moving down south for 6 figures. I could see him moving to a bottom 6 Premiership club when his contact runs out. Sibbald on the other hand will almost definitely be going for £££'s, probably not to a Swansea as he's a bit too old for them to shove in the U20's for a couple of years. I fully expect Sibbald to be pulling the strings at a decent Championship club.

  8. I might just be in the minority here 'cause I'm fairly relaxed about next season - I think we've improved the goalkeeping position and have reasonable options up front, I think we're a decent striker away from having as good a squad as we can expect and I thoroughly believe Houston is trying to get one.

    It would take an exceptional effort to get out of this league this season but a play-off place should be the target and I think we've got enough in the squad already to do that.

    I'm looking forward to the start of the season.

    I'm just about there too.
