A two hours race? That would be a marathon which I guess 5 seasons in this league is. The finishing line is in sight, let's get over it

Yes!!

Anybody go along to the stadium this afternoon for the Scotland u16 girls v Switzerland friendly? I knew nothing about it until my partner phoned me at work to say she was at the game with our son who only found out about it when he was having lunch in the restaurant. I went along after finishing work and caught the last half hour or so. There's another friendly between them on Sunday afternoon but it's great to see our stadium being used for international football again.

The kids were singing Championees as the players walked out, it was brilliant to see and the players were loving it

I think it's more a claim for offside against Miller but he's never off. I kept expecting the flag to go up at Alfie's goal, watching it back on Alba I can't see how Shanley isn't impacting on the keeper when Alfie shoots but I'll take it

Well done to Stenny in clinching League 2 yesterday. Seem to have stumbled over the line a bit but once you're over that line nobody cares. Hope you all enjoyed your night. Based on Falkirk's league title win, you'll all be buzzing for a long time yet

Plymouth fans have also stolen the MacIver song

Agreed. I'm sure Ross said on Falkirk Daft that Montrose supplied the champagne as well but I might also have imagined that. If they did then that's amazing hospitality from them

And the fact he was nearly as much of an arsehole as Hartley

Ignore them. If red dotting positive posts gives them a kick then let them bash on.

how good was Sam Long's save from that header in the first half?

We've just won the league at an absolute canter, smashed 7 goals past our opponents but there's always room for a moan. The shambles to get out of Links Park last night! One small gate for nearly 2400 fans?

He has been brilliant all season and was my MotM today which seems a strange thing to say when we've just scored 7 goals from 5 different scorers and his CB partner had two assists but his organisation, talking to players through the game and his general leadership as well as the fact he never lost a header or tackle all game.

What a day! Seen us win a few Division 1 titles in my time but today I got to enjoy a day out with my 8 year old son and my father in law watching us stroll towards the title. I'll openly admit on here that after spending 6 seasons refereeing on saturdays I fell out of love with football for a few seasons and even when I did go to games I couldn't have cared less about the result. My son has now got into football in the last two seasons and I'm loving the time we get together. Hearing him singing Falkirk songs when he wakes up and goes to bed this week, celebrating with him today when the title was confirmed then being on the pitch at the end are things I will remember for the rest of my days. We've now watched the goals on Alba twice since we got home and seen footage on social media of the players in BTW tonight. A great day to be a Falkirk fan. Thank you to John McGlynn, Paul Smith, the coaching staff, players and BoD for the direction the club is now heading. The Ultras/Young Team have made a massive difference and deserve a lot of credit, seeing fully grown men - some of whom seemed to be in their 70's - on the pitch singing and celebrating was brilliant and shows the togetherness around the club.

Since we're back on the rotation of goalkeepers debate, this was put up on the BBC website earlier today. It's about Brighton rotating their two keepers this year but has similarities to our situation. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/68657908 For what it's worth, like most people I'm not a fan of the monthly rotation either and wish we could just pick one and stick with him until he either gets injured, sent off or loses stupid goals through mistakes regularly. Every time there's a rotation, whoever comes in looks a bit rusty to start with, loses some silly goals, plays themselves into a bit of form and then drops out again. Long made the mistake v Annan in his first game back and has now played himself into a bit of form. He could have a blinder tomorrow but come next week will be on the bench again. If that's all we have to complain about this season then I'll take it

Hi Mo fans I'm coming up with my son and father in law tomorrow, likely arriving about 1ish to go for food and make a day of it for the wee man. Any recommendations on good places to eat?

They were last time I was in. Shop probably closed today though.

It was Alba's scaffolding. It's been there since the TNS semi final presumably to save dismantling to have to put it back up again for the final. Would imagine it will stay until after the Cove game on 6th April. Sky had a camera and camera operator using it on Saturday. Would imagine if the Alba reporter was there on Saturday he'll have been preparing for Sunday or filming/interviewing somebody from our side for a piece for a future game.

I agree. Every minute of every game as far as I'm aware. And for a centre half, he's barely picked up a yellow card. Strikers win you games of football, defences win you leagues

Thanks for this. That makes much more sense than the 4 lanes each way chat a family member keeps telling me!!

Managed to get a Dr's appointment booked today for 9am on Tuesday. Speaking to my other half's mum, she asked if I'd got an appointment and once I'd confirmed that I had indeed managed that really difficult task, told her the where and when only to be met with the reply of "you'll need to leave the house early on tuesday". No f*ckin shit!

St Johnstone was the club I heard but we could be playing them in the championship next season anyway.

Lovely Only bettered by the home top from back then imo

I have been to every Falkirk home game this season as well as a number of Lowland League and East of Scotland games. Obviously there were the usual stoppages in the games for injuries, goals, substitutions but at no point was there a delay for a reason nobody couldn't see or know why. I've seen a few Scottish Premiership and Serie A games on TV this year and I don't think there's been one where there hasn't been a stoppage for a VAR check. At least those watching on TV know why and what is being checked, doesn't seem to be the same consideration given to fans in the stadium who have paid good money. Would a one round of top tier fixtures organised boycott of fans get any support? Those fans could head along to lower or non league games that day. You can get entry, a drink and some food for less than the price of entry to a top tier game!
