As I said it was an observation rather than a criticism. Enjoyed the first one and look forward to the next.

Bairnardo Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 Despite having said, and planning to continue saying, enough about the lack of a decent striker, I'd just like to say at this point (and against my better judgement due to the last few years expereince) that I am genuinely excited for tomorrow. I think we will more than match up to Montrose man for man, I think we will have a tactics and a coherent gameplan, I think we will effort and application and blood/snotters if required. I also think we will keep the back door closed to an extent that can reasonably forsee us getting the win by hook or by crook. None of that paragraph has applied in quite some time. So aye, there's more required, but tomorrow we get to watch a club on its way to being fan owned and led, managed by someone who knows what they are doing, with players who listen to him. It's maybe no a high bar, but I'm excited. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stellaboz Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 Sadly I think McGlynn is the factor that will bring Falkirk the league this season. He knows what it takes to win it and how to get the best from a squad like that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The signing tweets etc, the pre season hope. It's a yearly time machine back to when I was a kid. I think theres at least something to back it up this time though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We look better but not winners material so far. What’s happening at the Pars for the bookies to turn against them?…. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can only think it was the fact we exited the league cup after failing to beat another team from the division and Falkirk progressed after beating one of the Premiership big guns. There's a minor case of doom and gloom at EEP just now as our second half against Alloa reeked of last season. In all honesty, I don't think our LC campaign was all that bad, two comfortable wins, ran Ross Co close at Dingwall but the Alloa game was most recent and the worst. As a result it's taken the shine off what was a decent start and probably where this has came from. I personally wouldn't have listed us as favourites. I think Queens have a better squad at the moment, and I think John McGlynn is a good manager at this level, that being said I'd take our squad over yours even if it's severely lacking depth. Sounds like we're close to one or two players coming in. McPake is being fairly cautious over signings, not just bringing in for sake of it which for the fans has been frustrating but I'm hoping it pays off in the long run. The top four will have Airdrie, Dunfermline, Falkirk and QoS, I just don't know what order it'll be in.

FWIW looks to me at the moment like Airdrie have better overall balance than the rest of us right now. Would have them shorter than 7/1, and certainly shorter than Kelty. Dunfermline look like a better attack, but (apparently) a weaker midfield; we have a better defence but a woeful attack. Wouldn't have us as favourites at this stage either. Loan market is clearly ultra-crucial to everyone!! Gonna make 17 September a fair indicator of our respective chances... (Wasn't it ever thus between us). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big chungus Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 Let’s hope Mcglynn can pull a decent striker out the bag then. Quite disappointed we’ve not got Jamieson in, would be really disappointed if we weren’t at least in for him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bairn88 Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 Airdrie are a clear value bet there imo. Us and Dunfermline, probably not 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know too much about Airdrie's team but I think they'll be there or thereabouts. I think some thought Kelty would be fighting it out at the top but with Potter becoming manager and a fairly quiet window I reckon they'll be mid table at best which would be a really good season for them. Pars have four good strikers but at the moment we seem to be playing 3 of them at the same time, the issue with that is they all want to me the main striker playing through the middle but two of them are having to play wider which isn't what they want to do. Our midfield is piss thin and a bit of a shambles although Chris Hamilton will win the Balon D'or at some point in his career, unfortunately suspended this weekend and next weekend. Defence is good but definitely need some cover in there. First couple of weeks will be a lottery as people will be bringing in players all through August, so you're absolutely right, the game between ourselves in September will be a big indicator, all teams should be bedded in by then. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
