    Also is Falkirk really that much of a backwater that 'Ooooh the Hibees are gay' is still acceptable patter?

    No, it's unacceptable everywhere. Disappointed in the stewards and Police failing to get involved, hopefully the club and cops will deal with it

    Have said it previously but really really like Mackie as the left sided centre half, maybe unfair based on one 90 minutes but I think McCann is the better fullback between the two and Mackie suits being allowed to step into midfield. That tackle anaw btw.

    I missed that as I had gone to the toilet. Heard the roar and genuinely thought we had scored, came back and there's a hibs player on his back on the ground. From what I heard he nailed the boy? 

  3. I thought we were brilliant tonight and deserved the win. Effort, work rate, determination were all there as well as some decent passages of play in the first half. Could and should have been 2 or 3 up at half time. 

    Definitely rode our luck in the second half and I'd love to see the "second goal" back. I was behind the goal so couldn't tell, felt like the 97 and 09 cup finals again. 

    That Hibs starting 11 would struggle in the championship, they looked much more dangerous in the second half. Maybe dont take the p*ss against lower opposition?

  4. Other than the Stranraer friendly, tonight was the first game I've been to since the 3-2 Ross County game in 2019 as my son is starting to get into football now and I obviously want him to be a Falkirk fan like myself, his mum, both his grandfather's and various other great uncles etc. 

    What a fantastic team performance tonight. While it's glaringly obvious we have next to nothing up top and the subs showed our lack of squad depth, nobody can complain about the effort, work rate and determination. Tonight is all we ask for in every game and its going to take a lot to beat us if we play like that more often than not.  

    Can we wrap the "hibees are gay" shite please?

    By Stevie Wonder? There was a bit of contact, but she hit the deck long after it.

    3-0 England and cruising.

    Agreed. I was convinced VAR would at least ask the ref to view it again. 

    Who's the co-commentator? Ellen White was 20 yards out apparently as she struck the shot from inside the penalty box 🙈

    The ref looked too far away to give that, I reckon the assistant gave it. 
    Not a pen for me

    I can't believe there wasn't a VAR review, looked a dive a mile.

    It was reviewed.

    I watched a couple do this at Tesco yesterday. Can't remember the make of car but was a big fuckoff thing. Straight into a disable bay despite the car park being really quiet. No badge.

    I don't think I have ever done it. I have always felt its a total no go, like just one of those things you absolutely don't do. I think most folk feel the same way tbh. But what's with these c***s who just don't care.... Honestly don't get it.

    My other half's parents do this in parent and child spaces even when they don't have our son with them. 

    Apparently it's because somebody bumped their car one day in a regular space so they park in parent and child now and have the nerve not to see anything wrong with it. 

    Can't wait for the day when they can't get a parent and child space with our son in the car because somebody without a child has parked in one

    Could it be they are planning to travel in the next week or so? I’m off at the end of this week with the family and we’ll all be masked up for the airport and flight. 
     

    Screw getting covid on the way to the beach. If wearing a FFP2 mask can reduce the chances by 10% or more then I for one am happy to put up with the abuse. 

    My missus went on holiday with her mum and sister last month. Her mother was petrified of catching covid and wore her mask the full time in the airport. After 10 minutes on the flight she took it off and never wore one again. 

  9. She's been going on for weeks about booking fast track at Edinburgh Airport for our holiday. I've repeatedly said if she wants that she can book it. 

    She tried to book it tonight using the ipad. The website froze after she put her card details in, cue mass moaning and asking me what to do next. 

    Needless to say it took me a whole 90 seconds to get it sorted on my phone. Thank you received at all?

    God's 1st few games for us were frankly poor but i remember standing on the terrace at Rugby Park screaming CROSS IT CROSS IT,then going or scoring is good as well🙈

    I said similar with Latapy at St Johnstone. The play was down the opposite end and he's beaten a couple of defenders then taking his time over his next move. I'm screaming cut it back cut it back. He then smashes it in the roof of the net 🤣

    I think that was the game we won 3-0 or 3-1, Pedro scored and Kevin Cuthbert had to be stretchered off after a knee in the head from his own teammate

  11. Had a meeting via Teams yesterday to discuss productivity. Manager goes on about how the team productivity has dropped to "crisis level" while working from home and asks what distractions we have that's stopping us working productively. 

    She's clearly not noticing - or choosing not to notice - one member of the team sat in her living room with Wimbledon on in the background and making no effort to hide it!

  12. Took in the friendly tonight. 

    I know it was only a friendly and there's still 2 months of the transfer window to go but my god we are so toothless up top. There's really nothing there to work with. We have to keep the ball for ages to make an opening but we seem to need those doing the creating to be the players finishing off the chances we do create. 

    Defensively we looked reasonably sound with only Darryl Duffy's chip looking the only way Stranraer were scoring. Being honest I wouldn't have minded seeing that go in as it might have woke some of our players up. 

    Yeats/Yates the clear standout, hope he gets signed up. Tonight was the first time I've seen Jaime Wilson, how did Holt possibly consider him an upgrade on Keena and Dowds? He's probably worse than Taylor Morgan

    Can anybody confirm if the Stranraer player was given a straight red or was it two yellows? I only saw the red but I read an earlier comment about two yellows. Thought Mackie was lucky not to go too. 

    Oh and the Stranraer manager and assistant are a pair of utter bellends.

    Nothings been mentioned but I can't imagine there won't be a PATG option. I'm planning on just walking up so worse comes to worse i'll give you a boosty up over the fence for the first half and the second half we'll switch round?

    Sounds a plan. You're welcome to the final half hour of continual substitutions and I'll get the wee man away home to his kip. 

    Thanks
