  1. Never watched the re-run of the hibs game today, but appreciate the clubs effort in terms of putting it on. 

    What I will say is that season is without a doubt the most enjoyable season I’ve had supporting the club since starting in 2002.

    A major factor in that was Houston. Watched back his post match interview there and felt ashamed for shouting for him to go. Without a doubt my favourite Bairns manager of all time. Folk can say it was right for him to go, but in hindsight it genuinely wasn’t.

    That team had everything you’d want as a Bairns fan. Mix of nostalgia with Miller and Kerr, experienced pros like Bairdy and some of our own like Sibbs.

    When Houston got the job I was delighted. He desperately wanted to be the man who took us back to where we all wanted to be, gutting that it never happened in the end.

    For me the most likely outcome is no more football, RR declared league 1 champions and play offs scrapped.  Hearts can challenge all they like but it'll get them nowhere and cost a heap of money.    We will spend another season in League 1, battling Partick and Cove for the automatic place.  

    The only way out of this I see is if a team currently above us in the pyramid goes out of business.  Reconstruction without that is highly unlikely .   

    Madness how folk are just accepting this. RR are 1 point above us, with 8 games to go and have had the luxury of playing us twice at home.

    Hearts have every right to challenge their case as well.

    We are top when the league was stopped and top at any other point in the season when we’d all payed the same teams the same number of times.
    If the powers that be do decide to award the league, how is it bonkers to suggest that it’s Raith who should be awarded it?

    You think it should be awarded on who’s got the bigger goal difference or who is the bookies favourite?

    Think that’s the definition of clutching at straws mate.

     

    Well no, it’s simply down to the fact that the season is unfinished...

    It would be absolutely mental to suggest raith should be promoted when there’s still a quarter of the season to go and only 1 point in it.

    It could be argued for teams like Dundee Utd and Cove who are significantly further ahead. Even still, until it’s mathematically confirmed - I don’t see how they can make that call.

    Perhaps 3 years in this shithole has brought out this level of desperation from you.

    From a selfish point of view, as Raith fans we have to be happy they’ve stopped it now.

    We’re top now, we were top after the second round of games and top after the third round of games.
    If they decide to abandon the rest of the season and award the league titles then there is no conceivable way they could give it to anyone else but us.

    Who knows what they’ll end up doing but at least we’re in a favourable position.

     

    Definition of clutching at straws.

    If they can’t complete the season, it’s done and there is no other option but for it to become void.

    Your logic that Raith have been top for 3 quarters so deserve to go up is mind boggling considering you’re only 1 point ahead and there’s still a full 4th round of fixtures to be played.

    I hate the whole team. I haven’t liked a single Falkirk player since 2016-ish.

    Another game against a top four team that has passed us by. We are pish.

    Overalll, this is the same feeling for me. Some players I don’t mind, like Miller, McManus and Gomis.

    But there’s too many players that I just cannot stand (Dixon, Doyle, Buchanan, Durnan to name a few).

    If durnan hadn’t dicked about and knocked it back to Mutch or cleared it first time we wouldn’t have been in a situation to make the ref mhak a decision.

     

    This. Everyone giving the ref pelters.

    Give it to Durnan. The guy is an absolute clown and fucks it for us week in, week out.
