  1. The more people comment and hope for Falkirk’s imminent demise the less likely I see it actually happening. Yes, McGlynn isn’t the messiah and is 100% fallible as a coach, a manger, a tactician, yes, some of their players i.e. Makie are bang average for this level (wouldn’t have him over Stevo or Dick), and their squad is relatively small but I just don’t see where the sticky patch occurs for them. I wasn’t terribly impressed with them when they came to Stark’s so it is remarkable that they’ve been quite so dominant in this league, maybe that’s more of a reflection of the other sides in the league this season than on Falkirk themselves. Momentum is the key factor for them though, success breeds success. Maybe they will stutter if a key player like Spencer finds himself injured as when our season unraveled back in the winter of 21/22, then blew up when McGlynn signed the rapist, but, as I said, the more people say their demise is imminent the more it comes off as clutching at straws. Thats said, I hope and believe we can stuff them next time we play and can leave McGlynn flapping!
  2. Interesting how certain posters have gone a bit quiet on here since Collins managed a couple of wins.
  3. True to some extent but there will come a point where the media but more so his players just won’t take him seriously. Like I said I remember the closing stages of that 20/21 season, we’ve been sitting pretty in 2nd most of that season (we slipped up right at the end and came 3rd, then got scudded by Dundee (who leapfrogged us at the last hurdle) in the play offs) and he’s going into the dressing room and to the media about avoiding 9th. Maybe he’s learnt his lesson since on the internal messaging at least.
  4. I’ve not been paying too much attention to what McGlynn has been saying but there has to be a point surely where he admits you’re aiming for the title? I remember him taking a lot of stick in 20/21 with us sitting in 2nd place come March/April and he was gibbering on about how many points away we were from mathematical safety.
  5. The bookies have Falkirk heavy favourites for the title now. I’ve not really seen anything from Livi, Ayr etc. to suggest they’re wrong. I think we’re getting towards Falkirk’s-title-to-lose territory. I’d like to think we can climb the table now but unless we start winning constantly (we can’t get a result away from Stark’s) and Falkirk start slipping up (can’t see it) then we’re not going to be a threat.
  6. Yeah. I said before it is a bit of a joke we have to play Sat-Tues-Fri while Ayr have had a nice old rest.
  7. At the start of last season Ross’ place in the team was pretty much squad player, though I believe he was pretty much our highest earner. He was coming out of a season he’d spent most of on the physio table and I understand his injury was a ‘play through the pain’ type, which he’s clearly managing ok with now, but no guarantees I guess… I can see why we loaned him then released him, despite how he’s doing. Also, let’s knock this “McGlynns getting something out of him others couldn’t” stuff on the head a bit, Ross played fine under Murray and I’m sure if he had stayed and enjoyed the same injury free record would have under Collins too.
  8. Late to the party but I noticed Karen Macartney is a director with you lot now. She was an unmitigated disaster of a CEO with us. I wouldn’t trust her one bit.
  9. Yeah. With Connolly and Mullin it looks to me a bit like we’re carrying dead wood.
  10. Hope that didn’t leave you feeling bleu.
  11. I wonder if Fordyce was the brains behind the operation at Airdrie. McCabe struggling without him.
  12. We weren't fantastic, and there still appears to be a bit of confidence issue but sometimes you have to win a bit ugly and we needed those three points tonight! We did score from open play, we beat a team we’ve really struggled against before and we know we’re capable of better performances. We go into Friday with a bit less pressure on our shoulders now I guess.
  13. Collins at least did something Murray was incapable of and pick up 3 points against Airdrie.
