I pretty much just took it as a given that they would put the prices up. The fact that they haven't means I can probably contribute a wee bit more money in other ways, so even though the argument can be made that the club aren't getting the additional revenue, in many cases they may still see that extra money in FSS, Lottos etc. Great decision by the club and doesn't price out those who maybe can't afford to pay any more. This current board deserve a tonne of credit.

Fantastic. My only regret is that he didn't score, depriving us of a full-blown Adebayor celebration. If we get him again next season, where does Hendo fit into the plans? Wouldn't mind seeing Tait given the number 10 role and alternating with Nizzy, personally.

Yeah probably not. Makes me wonder what the current wage structure at the club is? According to Football Manager, our top earner (before any contract extensions) is Morrison on £800 per week.

If Yeats is offski, could we get Stephen O'Donnell? Not good enough at international level but would be great in the championship.

I have absolutely no issues with the current model, and I certainly don't feel pressured in any way to contribute more than I already am. I've spent a small fortune following Falkirk this season and I spend a lot on merch almost every month too. I'm not currently on the FSS but fully intend to join in the close season, not out of pressure but because I want to. Fan ownership is the way forward and I'd rather dip into my pocket every now and then than have a Mr Moneybags scenario where the future of the club is at risk the second Mr Moneybags gets bored. Whilst I do see where John is coming from, he's an old man shouting at a cloud in this scenario

I get where John is coming from RE the constant asking for funds by the club. I don't have any issue with it, but a bit more transparency on how much of a difference it's making (the club mentioned Tait was only possible due to this. More of this please) would be really appreciated.

Best defence in the country

He is out of contract in summer 2025, I'm pretty sure. If we can get him back on loan again, next season then who knows? We could be pushing for the premiership next season, which will make a permanent move all the more appealing. I can't see him signing a new deal at Hibs unless they have plans for him to break into the first team. If that's the case then fair enough and good luck to the lad, because he's been class for us. Or Hibs could look to sell him this summer.

Can't tell if this was meant as a dig or not, but it's true, I was. (Emphasis on the past tense). I have no issue with you pointing that out. I've still got a lot to learn about things and apologies if my lack of knowledge means I put my foot in my mouth a bit. It's certainly not intentional. I wasn't aware Queen's Park were a vanity project in the same vein as Gretna.

Not really, no. Care to enlighten me?

What have you got against Queen's Park haha? I've personally always had a bit of a soft spot for them, due to their history. Their squad made up the first few Scotland National teams back in the 1870s, when they were the top team in Scotland. I'd much rather see ICT go down than them, but as @RC55 FFCsaid, they'd probably win the play-off against any league one team.

Anybody else really nervous about today? Earlier in the season, I honestly couldn't have cared less about an unbeaten season (as it probably wasn't going to happen anyway and the league was the priority). It's now within touching distance, and whilst I'm certainly not writing off any of our other remaining fixtures, I can't help but feel like this is the match where it's on the line.

I really don't want Morton to go down, even if it would be incredibly funny. Their fans have chatted an awful lot of sh*t about Falkirk these last few years and they need well and truly put in their place.

Haha that's mental. You literally posted the same thing as me at the same time

I know George Oakley is out of contract at Morton, and as far as I'm aware, he hasn't signed for anyone yet. He'd be a decent option (and why break the habit of a lifetime of nicking all their players?) And yeah, I do agree with you RE Shanley. If he's a cheap option then I wouldn't be against re-signing but I would like someone who can really push MacIver and I'm not convinced Shanley will.

It's really down to what Ethan wants to do. He's probably going to be playing second fiddle to Miller again next season and maybe he'd rather be playing every week. I'd totally respect that decision, were that to be the case. That said, I'd rather have him here. Clearly he's really good, and he'd have been a key player the last few seasons.

What makes you say that? You can't possibly say that with any authority. Thank god the BoD are forward thinking and don't share this narrow viewpoint. Mind you, it's moot anyways because we *will* be pushing for a title next year

Morrison plays as an inside forward. He's effectively a striker that plays out wide and likes to cut in. He's absolutely not a winger in a million years.

If we win this one on Saturday then I think an invincible season is a very realistic possibility. They'll be up for it so hopefully McGlynn has them focused against complacency (I'm sure he has).

A shame to hear folk losing their jobs, especially ones that had been with the club for decades, but the situation at Dens Park is a shambles. They're no doubt the scapegoats.

Worst of all is the fact that there is another club, located across the street, and in a lower division, who don't seem to have the same issues with their pitch that Dundee are continuing to have. I'm not a groundskeeper, and I imagine it's a difficult job, but maybe they should keek over the fence and see what United are doing differently, as it's getting embarrassing now.

Aye, the constant 17:30 KO times are less than ideal, but Alba just needed to get their Box Office Bairns fix! What's the Gaelic for "Get it right up yeez Accies"? You're no wrong! Not to mention all the merch I've also bought over that period. The club should have just automatically taken the money out my bank account when they announced the 1991 away shirt. Would have saved me the hassle Fair points. It was never in any doubt that I was going, however. I'm skint but I just love following this team so much. These players have a real connection with the supporters and it's just awesome to see it.

One section nearly sold out for Accies away. Was kinda expecting more to be honest?

I don't get it either. They basically did the same as us where they kept a Premiership budget in the championship, but is the difference between us the fact that our BoDs were able to offset those losses? Our operating losses at the moment sit around £400K if memory serves me? And correct me if I'm wrong, but we will break even next season under current operating costs? Not sure how much scope there is to expand expenses (ie playing squad) mind you. So important that we work within our means going forward. The losses both Dundee clubs are posting simply isn't sustainable.

You're right. Not just the trophy though, but the pitch invasion and the amazing night out in the town centre later that night will surely convert a few.
