    Had to laugh at when he was talking about his time at Baillieston and he was sold to Falkirk, the other one that gave me a laugh was him talking about his red card in fact a few stories were quite funny the one with Lamont asking the players what is wrong and Burgess saying the managers shite because the 2 of them didnt get along.

    Really enjoyed that, i had no idea he was part time I thought the club went full time when we got promoted to premier league. The Lamont story was brilliant, manager sees player, likes player, signs player, no need for agents. Would love to hear Stainrod and maybe someone from the 57 cup final team.

    Not the best example as apart from losing a sizeable sum to a phone scam,  forgetting to order seats for their brand new stand and playing ineligible players in cup ties hearts are run like a well oiled machine. Lang is hopeless as is campbell. Cluelessness has nowt to do with gender.

     

    And for a calendar if we're talking legends can you really go past the 57 cup final team and reggie smith.  They really are legends.

    Many people have fallen for scammers and I believe Hamilton were also duped around same time. Don't know about the seats but surely the stand would have had a project manager to deal with those things. And don't club secretaries deal with player contracts etc?

    What if I told you Margaret Lang has been a 20+ year supporter of Alloa and was a plant in the Falkirk boardroom to ensure Alloa's championship survival.

    Paul Hartley appointed with this express purpose also decided to strap you with 2 year deals on the worst footballers he could get his hands on.

    Might have believed you but surely nobody could take watching Alloa for 20+ years!!

    That’s a few times now I’ve seen you mention that Margaret Lang is in fact a women. I can’t remember off the top of my head but something like “lady chair” or similar. Let me just say that you can f**k right off with post above you backwards thinking dick.

    Ann budge seems to be doing ok!

    Heard the manager appointment was sorted out on Tuesday and only McCall was offered the job before McKinnon was approached, still hoping to sign one player and get 2 in on loan.:whistle

    Someone mentioned they seen McKinnon leaving the stadium earlier in the week . It's just shows how much pish has been spoken about attracting a new manager.

    Off the back of this seasons relatively unknown signings, I have two questions for you fellow bairns fans:

    1. Who has been the biggest let down of a signing?

    2. Who’s been the biggest (good) surprise of a signing?

    The most recent example of the first question would be Loy, with the excitement and expectation that came with the signing, but drastically underperformed.

    For me one of the worst was Lovell,thought he would score a barel load for us but he was pish!

    Best for me is latapy. Felt he was coming with to much baggage and was bit of a waster . But the guy was an absolute genius and joy to watch.

    Yellow or red are fine with me, providing they keep it simple. No mad pattern underneath it or it ends up looking like a w**k 90s goalie top. More to the point, are they slim fit or fat b*****d sized. Asking for a friend. 

    I take it your friend is after the slim???

    Alan Irvine for me '9' and 'Irvine` on the white Spall top from the printing press place in the old cally riggs. Can't remember if we had a sponsor back then... It may have been Coasters? 

    It certainly was coasters! That was my first ever strip I got the tracksuit  as well seem to remember it had no falkirk badge on it just the spall logo. Also got number 5 on my top at that shop for my hero big Burgess.

  9. I see D Utd have signed another dunfermline player and are also having trial games to get new players. Didn't Clyde do that when they were skint?? On another note anybody know anything about Harry Paton who was on loan to stenny last season? Their manager seems to think highly of him.

    I caught the Real radio phone in the Monday after and in true style because Celtic didn't win then it was somebody's fault. 

    The ref got a fair bit of the blame for it but the queue of Celtic fans waiting to call in was incredible.

     

    You can't beat the old firm fans for slavering. I was in a pub before the 2-2 game at ibrox listening to the "there's no competition" patter then going back to the car after they were absolutely fuming "McLeish must go!!"

    I've never seen a keeper so absolutely determined to do well as Thomson today, from holding up the rest of the team's warm-up whilst he got more time with the goalkeeping coach to grabbing the ball from the ref before kick off. Completely focused and hardly put a foot wrong.

    Competition for places?

    Am I now right in saying the only person remaining at the club to have played at Brockville will be Paul Hartley?

    End of an era, now every player for us vurrent or presumably future knows Falkirk only at our current home.

    Did Hartley play at Brockville??  Can't remember him at all
