  1. I never watched it but they've been celebrating all week, got the title won and Airdrie wouldn't have been 100% at it in case of injuries before the playoffs. No way was that going to be a good game. At least our boys had their eyes on the ball after the league was won
  2. One of the main reasons I gave up refereeing in 2009 was the conduct of parents at the side of the pitch. Watched my son play his 3rd match for his wee team tonight and realised that I am one of those parents
  3. Agreed. The "he's unlucky" and "not sure what he's meant to do in that situation" takes are wild. I dont doubt there was no malice in it, something Tidser said in his after match interview but Coll catches Bavidge full in the chest with his studs, the other way around and we're screaming for a red card. The "he got the ball first" argument is irrelevant and the fact the club aren't appealing it says it all to me.
  4. I'm usually one to defend refs but yesterday's ref is a Premiership ref and with no Premiership games on yesterday I thought he looked very arrogant as if he thought refereeing League 1 football was beneath him. He also didn't look the most mobile!
  5. I missed it at the time and still none the wiser!! Red card looked a red to me at the time and the highlights confirmed it. Yes I think he got the ball first but that's no reason to not show red, clear serious foul play even with no intent to harm the player. Dylan Tait's clearance off the line Not sure if Tidser was being entirely serious in his after match interview when he said they scored two really good goals
  6. We have scored a number of stunning goals this season and the clear favourite will be Morrison v Montrose given the circumstances of that game. Spencer v QOS in the first game was a highlight for me as we had struggled all game and it looked like petering out into a 0-0 finish. I missed the 3-2 Montrose game as my son had a birthday party to go to at half 4. Personally I love a goal that's come from a good team move so from that collection it's either MacIver v Stirling or Nesbitt v Kelty for me
  7. Couple of stories about my wee fella over the last month or so that shows he's growing too quick; Got married to his class girlfriend at school before the Easter holidays He was among thousands of Falkirk fans on Links Park and knows all the words to a number of the songs Away on a caravan holiday in the first week of the Easter holidays and he took himself away to the grassy play area which had two sets of goals and played football with other kids. Up to about xmas time he would have wanted his mum or I to take him over and wait He was doing Goalkeeping coaching through Falkirk Community Foundation since November but for a number of reasons - lack of coaches mainly - that all seems to be stopping. This week he has joined a local football team as a goalkeeper, gone to 1 training session and played his first ever match tonight. Very proud parent tonight
  8. A lot of what you've said is so true. The stigma of mental health illness is still around and needs tackled head on. Talking about it or even getting it down on here hopefully helps. Thank god your missus found you each time and together you got the help you needed. You're still here to be a husband and father and ultimately that's all that counts. If your suicide attempts had been successful then your employer would have replaced you in weeks, in the grand scheme of things money really isn't important. Keep on talking, sharing and taking one day at a time. Good luck mate
  9. It's absolutely up to each individual person whether they want to contribute a bit more to buying a season ticket. Personally I plan to buy a season ticket for myself and my son next season for the first time as if nothing else it will save me more than paying at the gate. I've been to every home league game this season bar the 3-2 Montrose game and its cost me £340, would have saved myself £98 had I bought a season ticket.
  10. I remember this well! Didn't he then flick the ball over a Hamilton player almost straight after kneeling on it?
  11. Based on Accies form in the last 7 games or so, I thought they'd be our toughest game but that yesterday was an utter canter for us. Didn't need to get out 3rd gear, Miller and Nesbitt were brilliant, Tait and Spencer won the midfield battle and the defence kept Hakeem Rose quiet with the exception of a few half chances. Shout out to Hogarth as well, nothing to do all game but still had the concentration and alertness to pull off two saves to keep the clean sheet Also, how many times did Miller say "Invincibles" in his post match interview? The players have a determination to do it and for their sake rather than the fans, I hope they do it. Accies were poor, continue like that and they won't go up
  12. I've tried the stuff twice, had migraines the following day each time.
