Any chance of a loan signing before the window closes? Doubt it unless its with a view to sign for next season
Getting greedy!

Should be one of the less demanding obstacles in our stroll to the title.

The missus family are full of really bitter Celtic fans who can't seem to understand that I take great pleasure in seeing them or their blue cousins get beat.
'ye must like one or the other'
A bit like being asked what is your favourite cancer.

I would suggest the bonus money would be motivational too
The club could shift a hefty amount of merchandise on the back of an unbeaten season and an invincibles badged strip would fly off the shelves.

I couldn’t get to this as my I.C.I Juvs under 18 team had a Scottish Cup semi that afternoon (went on to win the cup).
A few pints were sunk that night in a double celebration though!0 -

It’s my honestly held opinion that I don’t think too many tears would have been shed if McGlynn had been given the boot after the Airdrie result, even among those who said they wanted him to stay. It was a capitulation like no other and the most disgusted I’ve ever been after a Falkirk game in nearly two decades of going. It’s also often forgot in the blaze of the Airdrie result that the arse completely fell out of our season in the final quarter too. Others might disagree with that and that’s fine, it’s about opinions. I said early on I’d accepted he was going to be kept but he had a lot of work to do to get me back on board - he did that very early on with some absolutely superb recruitment and a style of play which is great to watch. He deserves an absolutely enormous amount of credit for that, as do the players he’s brought in. It’s the most fun I’ve had watching Falkirk in years and the club is in a fantastic place on and off the park.
My opinion on McGlynn is that he’s a very, very astute football manager and his strengths lie in player recruitment and building a very attractive team to watch. I do think he has limitations, particularly tactically - and when they’re exposed, they’re often exposed majorly - but you can’t argue that on the whole, it’s been two years of remarkable progress from where we were when he arrived to where we are now. Long may it continue.
Very good summary of where we are at.

We’ve had heartbreaking times, three SC cup finals that still to this day for me didn't deserve to lose, but that’s football.
Airdrie was as difficult I’ve known, an absolutely abhorrent/capitulation display from players wearing the NB. Manager that watched and never changed the format when it was evident after the second goal we needed to change.
Called for his head at the time.Cant say anything apart from well done to assembling the best equipped squad we’ve had in six or so years.
I was in a blind rage at half time at Airdrie for the very reasons you mention and I will never apologise for wanting him sacked on the spot.
However I applaud him for the the way he has built an outstanding team ( at this level ) and thank him for the hugely enjoyable season.

There is something very odd about clubs like Hamilton and Livingston.
Football’s equivalents of Turkish barbers, nail bars or Eastern European run car washes.

Couldn’t care less.
Very much enjoying what they are going through.
To be honest I’m with you on this.
EVERY other set of supporters revelled in our misery over recent years, now that we are finally enjoying the good times f**k the losers.

Accies were broken long long before Falkirk were of any relevance to us again.
We won’t be relevant to you next season again.

Hamilton appear to be broken.

So Gavin Masterson's still at it in his eighties? You'd think that pure greed and cuntery would eventually stop being fun.
He was a banker, the devil’s representatives on Earth.

Inspired by Falkirk Daft. Who’s your player of the season?
Im genuinely struggling to pick:
Morrison
Miller
Lang
Spencer
Henderson
Yeats
There’s not many who you can’t make the case for! Will be a close vote
I would give it to Donaldson just to get it right up the clueless arseholes who screamed abuse at him for months.

No need for squad rotation, go balls out to get the league won then, if still possible, aim for an unbeaten season.

A certain rotund ex Chairman who ended up at Brockville shafted both clubs…allegedly
A couple of examples of what went on included an ex Director purchasing Properties adjacent to the old Douglas Park for £71,000 & £89,000 respectively only to sell them to the Club(who needed the land) for £579,000 & £589,000 respectively.
Robert Gibb who owned Flamingoland in North Yorkshire was traveling to Hamilton for a Board Meeting to finally oust the rogues and secure himself, Ally Duguid & David Campbell total control of the club.
He died in a car crash en route and his grieving widow was conned into selling her shares to the despised Jim Watson who regained control and the disasters which then occurred.
All these and other issues are ingrained on the Accies supporters psyche and younger fans have their own issues with corruption and a them v us attitude.
Thus, when the likes of Rankin or the new Board have a go at fans, they just say “Foxtrot Oscar” which is why our crowds can swing from one extreme to the other.
Years of being treated like crap by the club they support has caused this and this New Board are already repeating the errors of many predecessors.
Posted this before but I still fondly remember standing behind the fork lift mogul at the Europcar desk at Luton airport as his credit card was knocked back and he couldn’t pay for his hire car.
Petty but very enjoyable.

I have been watching Accies since 1977 and only once-under Alistair Duguid and David Campbell have we had Owners with the best interests of the fans/club at heart.
This was the club remember who sold the ground for £6.5 million, got another £2 million from the the Retail Park and were left with £650,000 to build a ground after certain individuals got their hands on the money.
Hence the 2 Stands and not 4 and the extra money from The Retail Park was to pay for a covered roof which would have been a first up here.
Add in stopping a lottery winner joining the Board and a million other things and it has mostly been grim.
Who tanned all the money?
(I think that I know)

Oliver has definitely contributed this season, but McGlynn will need to look at whether players are going to be good enough week in week out in the championship rather than against Montrose reserves.
The fact Oliver hasn’t been able to hold down a starting 11 spot in league 1 says to me we will need better quality to challenge at the top of the championship.
Would certainly be good enough as a squad player but I think he will be looking to move on to get first team football.

Lol. Maybe read like more of a criticism than it was meant
He does absolutely rip them in the warm up

Genuine depth in the squad now.
Thought Ross was outstanding and lovely goal from Oliver.

Great ball by Mackie for that goal.

Have noticed this before, but during the warm up, no one in our team hits the ball as cleanly as Gary Oliver. It's one worldy after another. What happens to his shooting in a match is anyone's guess...
Quite often scores.

Exactly! there is a 1/3rd of the season to go and have 60 odd years of witnessing Falkirk collapses.
We are in a good place - nearly there and for the want of waiting a further 6 - 8 games then the bumming and piss takes will be all the more enjoyable.
I think bumming is taking the celebrations too far.

To be fair I would say Morton and Airdrie are worse than you.
