He picked the worst game possible to have a howler. The 2 wingers didn’t play well either and Oliver was totally isolated. Not that it matters as the majority of our team didn't turn up but I'd have McGinn as our worst player, kept shelling long balls rather than getting the ball down and playing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richie Sacramento Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 Hugely disappointing, especially given the run the team had been on, but yet again Dunfermline showed why they are going to win the league. Organised and disciplined at the back, and scrape goals from mistakes and set pieces. 3 games we've played against them and its been a penalty, 2 badly defended corners and a horrendous mistake thats cost us goals. I still think we'll go up through play offs, but McGlynn has a job on his hands to lift the players again for the run in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fallen Angel Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 1 hour ago, Numbers_One_To_Eleven said: As @Paranoid said, draws can be killers too. Facts speak for themselves... Dunfermline have Won nine and drawn three games since the beginning of December. In the same time Falkirk have, now, Won nine, drawn two and lost one. So in 12 games you have gained a whole MINUS one point on Dunfermline. Barring a stunning collapse over the last 9 games...In which Dundermline are unbeaten at home and have the best away record in the league and now 16 clean sheets in 27 league games... i'd say it's asking too much. Falkirk really had to win last night (a draw might even have made it interesting)...but once again the most attacking free flowing team in the league (not my words) were easily out fought and out witted by Dunfermline.... Good luck in the cup as I know that money is tight at Grangemouth just now and I do love the "Kincardine Derby" days... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having “personality” doesn’t stop you from getting gubbed. We haven’t lost these games because of lack of personality, we lost because we’ve been outplayed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your digs at Donaldson are embarrassing Slender 20 year old playmaker gets pushed off ball when caught out vs experienced defender not defending. Big difference there. Donaldson may do well against the diddies in this league but has been found out against Airdrie and Dunfermline when it mattered. It's not digs when the proof is there to back it up. It's literally pointing out failures! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing i'd say, there wasn't a goal like roar until the crowd see the linesman running up the park. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think his lack of mobility was at the core it. I don’t know if he is carrying an injury, but last four or five games he has looked less and less mobile. That’s the three games against the Fifers plus the games against Dundee that have shown us to still be some way off it. The Cup game next week will be a good indicator as to how good (or not) we are. Another performance like last night, and Ayr will comfortably beat us. Even our best next Monday might not be enough. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highlights are fine when they can be paused to suit, the assistant has to make that call live To be fair we did end up convincing winners but I've been to enough games to know that goals change games. That was a header from a corner that should've been saved/blocked by either keeper or defender. The less said about the 2nd goal the better, just poor all round from Falkirk. We did have 4 or 5 other good chances in that 2nd half but the keeper and the post did enough. So it really took 2 poor defensive mistakes to win the game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthStander1876 Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 That second goal stings, that pass back to Kinnear was mental from Morrison. Mackie shouldn't have started IMO, needed Mckay in there for his physical presence. Should never have been outjumped by KRH. McGlynn never changed a winning side before last night and when he does thats what happens. Henderson should never have been dropped 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon Kinnear's reaction, or lack of reaction, tells a story. Happy to join the anti-Falkirk SFA conspiracy though. If just to direct my tears somewhere. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's inconclusive and the best angle I've seen from a Pars fan account is obscured at the precise moment due to those damned NW section supporters erupting to claim it!
