    Wait, should we be watching what we say on the podcast now? I’d hate to think John calling Ryan Williamson “the tampon” will rile him into becoming Cafu against us on the 30th 😂 

    Williamson "the tampon" becomes Cafu in time for our game against them? 

    If that happens... bloody hell.

  2. Regardless of previous incidents, there must be a better way of accomodating a few hundred away fans who will already have been allocated an entire standalone stand to themselves that doesn't also involve blocking off a massive chunk of the main stand too.

    Seems bonkers, but I guess if we don't actually sell out the rest of the main stand it maybe doesn't much matter.

    Better team from start to finish, delighted for Finn Yeats getting his first goal. TNS or Arbroath at home next, brilliant chance to get into the final.

    My only complaint about the second half is Morrison not squaring that ball to Calvin Miller for a tap in, blinkers were on.

    Is it just me - I thought Milller had run into an offside position? Not that I necessarily think that's what was going through Morrison's head. May well be wrong though. Usually am.

    Formed in 1876 but not necessarily when first official match played

    Formed 1876.

    .. allow a bit of time for recruitment from the assorted taverns and hostelries of Falkirk town...

    carry out rudimentary equivalent of beep tests...

    analyse results and devise bespoke training programmes...

    arrange removal of livestock from playing field...

    bulk buy half time woodbines and oranges etc.

    It seems plausible that matches may not have started until '77.

    Three points well and truly dropped there, Falkirk were there to be taken. They are miles off where Hamilton are in terms of title winners but sometimes luck plays a big part in winning promotion and Falkirk had alot of that today so maybe that will see them over the finish line this year 

    Ha ha. Aye. Just imagine if both of your two shots had gone in rather than just the one.

    Delusional pish.

    There is no artificial surface that holds a candle to a top quality grass pitch. The EPL where it’s not about economy or making money from the surface is grass all the way.

    A few years back, I was part a tour of the Arsenal stadium (including a walk out to the centre spot. That pitch was like a bowling green…..absolute perfection.

    Your points re budgets etc are true but many top flight pitches, including Arsenal's, are hybrids of grass and synthetic. The grass and artificial fibres intertwine which helps it drain better and cut up less. Think Elton John's barnet, but greener
