Will this be the longest period the club will have been out of the top league in Scotland after this season? Mid 70’s to Mid 80’s is the longest I could find. Meaning we are now the same length of time as then

What's all this chat about marquee signings?  Is it a requirement from Falkrik fans that they must sign someone they've heard of before?  Paul Paton or Froxylias for example?

Surely it's Hartley's job to sign players that will improve the team, not just get a player in to sell an extra 200 season tickets.

dont disagree but we always used to have at least one player you'd pay money to see at falkirk.   couldn't say that now.  The fans need a lift.

Had a quick check and it will be the equal worst if we don’t go up this season

Hopefully my wee pet project was of interest to some of you.
As I said previously, I've got the (post-war) appearance stats bent over and ready, but I think I'll leave them for the moment - things are too "interesting" on the park.
All Falkirk fans should have bookmarked two amazing sites for stats/reference/fact/snippets. They are genuinely worth their weight in gold. No I don't run them.

This was a brilliant set of posts. Really took the edge off all the rest of the shite going on.

Yes, although to be fair we had to come up two leagues during that period and won the 2nd Div,  which was some kind of success (79/80)

Mackin is playing at at least one level above what he should be if you ask me. He's a seaside league  striker as has been shown by his better performances against the likes of East Fife etc.

Looking at the scoring charts was magic. Well done RB.

Thing is as well, because of all the 1/2 year deals now, I can't see anyone we have getting close to those numbers in the next decade 

If someone is scoring at a rate that's exciting they'll be sold or pre contract elsewhere.

Thank you.

You really need two solid seasons, or one exceptional one, at the very least to be looking to get on there. And as we've seen with Farid and Lyle, more often than not they get pinched after one.
