  1. Fair play to you for coming on here to take the flak.
  2. I cannot wait to watch the Only Accies Match Reaction video on YouTube!
  3. Granted, based purely on his recruitment this season.
  4. I would have preferred if we had held back the announcement until after the Accies game next Saturday. I think a year extension would have been fine with a further option of him becoming DOF, provided we get promoted this season.
  5. The gazebo was of its time as it were, it served its purpose to increase attendances but now that we have the KM7 it really isn't needed. Besides, they look terrible, just look at Cove or the one at Hamilton or even that one at Alloa. I'd rather have nowt than something like that along the east of the stadium. Better to bide our time and get a proper covered safe standing terrace built if / when we reach the land of milk and honey.
  6. I’ll be getting up at stupid o’clock to watch our game against TNS for sure, especially when it isn’t a school day tomorrow, but if I am being honest a little bit of me thinks that the most important game for us today is Hamilton’s down at Palmerston. If they fail to win they will be at best 10 points behind us having played the same number of games. Then, I might just allow myself to think that perhaps this is our season for promotion after all. Still 14 cup ties to play, I know, but clawing back a 10 points deficit would be a massive task for Hamilton if we both play at our best between now and the end of the season. ‘Mon the Queens.
  7. Ooooo! Ooooo! Ooooo! I know this one! Season 1979-80 What's my prize?

  9. A list of Falkirk players that Hamilton Accies have signed this window:
  10. I’ve been watching re-runs of the Falkirk TV highlights packages on YouTube (as you do) and couldn’t help but notice that the Ultras being slap bang in the middle of the away stand at NDP created a fantastic atmosphere and seemed to “grow” the participation of fans on both sides of them. Now, somebody will need to help me out here – in the KM7 stand do you have to sit in an allocated seat or is first come, first served? I don’t understand why the Ultras seem to be squashed into the corner near the main stand, surely they would generate more noise and atmosphere if they located themselves right behind the goals? Would it cause too many problems with supporters who traditionally sit behind the goals? I watch all the games on Falkirk TV so maybe some of you who actually sit in the KM7 stand can give me your input?
  11. Being a Queens fan you probably don't know what that thing that Stainrod is holding is - it is called a cup. Not an urn.
  12. Hendo and Coll have both just signed contract extensions, Cal and Finn to be announced next?
  13. I see my post has prompted some signing news for you
  14. Of our established, first pick outfield 10 we haven't had a single failure this season. I'd hate to see any of them go before the end of the season but I just think that Morrison has got that something extra about him that can be the difference between us drawing or winning . I'll never forget that goal against Montrose for as long as I live. He can go for free at the end of the season with my blessing but I'd be absolutely gutted if he left this window.
  15. I've previously stated that we had no need for a DOF when we were in League One, especially that f*cking waste of skin Holt, but I could maybe see us having one in the Championship if we manage to get promoted this season. While I wasn't keen on McGlynn when he was appointed he has done much better than I expected and his wheeling and dealing has been superb. Maybe not next season but have him move upstairs to DOF sometime in the future? The caveat being of course if we can afford to have one.
  16. I thought Pearse Carroll was gallus as f*ck for us when he played, confidence beyond his years. I know that he had personal issues but I would have loved us to have kept his registration and maybe loaned him out to a non-SPFL club nearer his family and home until he felt mentally fit to return to us.
  17. Manchester, the birthplace of the Orange Order in England. Making this strip every bit as repulsive as the Linfield one if that is the inspiration behind it.
  18. If you mean the 2017/2018 away kit I'm fine with it too. It doesn't have that vile orange sash on it.
  19. This. I'm with @ilostmyself , let Morrison go for free at the end of the season but we need him firing on all cylinders for us until then (and not at NDP, they already have the best squad in the league anyway, they would just be greedy signing Callumn, wouldn't they?).
