Can someone describe his time at the club please? Also, I started going in 90/91 and he came back for 10 games that season. Anyone know the background to that? Gary Smith would’ve been the first choice right back at that point. One of the best right backs ever to play for us in my time,never let you down and just an all round good guy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 (edited) Just sharing this as it was made by one of our FSS members. This is what a community club and organisation is all about. It’s ok to say the FSS should do this or that but it isn’t always possible due to resources. As a fan owned club, if we want to move forward, then it has to be together. Also as much as we appreciate it is unaffordable to join for many, it’s not all about financing but simply promoting the FSS, liking and sharing the social media posts or helping any which way you can to try and get more members to join and help propel the club forward. So, if you have pals that you think can join then please ask them or if you are able to contribute more then please offer to do so. It’s volunteer led and a lot of time is already spent on administrating it so we’re welcome to anyone who can offer help grow our membership further in the knowledge that all money goes to the club(minus some small fees). You can DM us on our socials or email admin@falkirksupporters.org Edited March 12, 2023 by Van_damage 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bairn88 Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 On sold out occasions like tomorrow does the brockville bar fill up quickly - do we need to be in there early to secure a spot? Main stand dweller usually thanks to the ST 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HopeStreetWalker Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 13 hours ago, AuAl said: Somerset Park, Cappielow , Gayfield etc are all valid for the Premiership. There are small limitations in that there has to be a certain amount of covered seats for Prem. 500 minimum, I believe. In fact, I'd struggle to think of many clubs in the championship / league 1 that don't meet current requirements for the top flight. The rules around all seater stadia were abolished at the point where SPFL was formed from the SPL / SFL merger. So aye, get some terracing put up on the empty side. Would be class. If they do build a covered terracing on the empty side of TFS. Can they please ensure the roof is made from rusty corrugated sheeting. This will enable the rest of the crowd to return to the old Brockville crowd pass time of having a good laugh at the crowd under it as they are showered with rust when the ball bounces on the roof. It was hilarious as the clouds of rust cascaded down and the reaction in particular the away fans encountering it for the first time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been a bonus getting this far to be honest. I just hope we do ourselves justice tonight unlike Tues. Should be a good open game which should suit us but Ayr are a very decent side so we will need to be on top of our game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hughsie Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 I’ve watched Ayr a few times on TV this season and on their day, I don’t think we’ll be able to cope with them. We’ll need to be 100x better than last week and will need Ayr to be below their levels. It would be tremendous for the club if we can do it but I’m being realistic about it. I am stunned we’re the bookies favourites. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthStander1876 Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 Re: Atmosphere Atmosphere is very poor at home games usually and there's not really much we can do about it. There is a core group of people who go everyweek and sit in the top corner of the KM7, and the majority of us find it difficult to get excited for the majority of home games we've had over the last 3/4 years. We're really pushing the boat out tomorrow and we really hope its successful as a lot of time was put into it. Building near enough 2,000 flags is rather time consuming. If we want atmosphere to improve we just simply need more people to get involved. Majority criticise while sitting on their hands. Drums - The overwhelming majority of people up in the corner despise the though of drums, so no need to worry about that just yet. Songs - The idea of there being no original songs is nonsense, just this season (off of the top of my head, probably missing a couple) we've had a song for McGlynn, Rowe, Oliver, Burrell. The team and the fans feed off of each other, for example if we had won on Tuesday, that away end would've been rocking. Final note: If everyone in the KM7 gets involved tonight, this display will be a success so please can everyone play their part. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not getting that buzz that I had even for the Darvel game but tbh that’s when on the pitch we often excel. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am stunned we’re the bookies favourites. I watched them a few weeks back against QP at Ochilview and they were awful. It all depends what team turns up I suppose. I'm hoping the weather plays a part. I have no numbers to back it up but I think we tend to do a lot better when conditions are terrible at home. Especially on that pitch, the ball will move faster and passing will be slicker if we keep it on the deck. If there is an early goal then it could be a cup classic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like we need to unofficially designate that area near the end of the KM7 as the section you want to be in if you want to get involved and let it organically grow. Anyone not wishing to sing/chant as much who'd normally sit there can budge up Good on you and others who've organised this and hope it goes as well as planned I and my usual attendees will be along earlier than usual to participate in the display. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairnardo Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 (edited) Some fantastic token coverage on sky sports news there. Along the wee ticker at the bottom.... "Kucheriavyi and McGuffie pushing for appearances. McGlynn could name unchanged 11". Piercing insight, wonder if the bookies are aware of this.

If you're seated in the upper section of the middle section there will be a banner somewhere to hold up. Flags are quite big so hoping it will look good for the TV cameras. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye I just seen the info on the match day guide. There's 7 of us going tonight, will be there early enough, usually sit just up from the disabled section down from the young team so want to make sure we get our usual seats if it's a sell out. Got some relatives over from America coming along so hope it all goes well, will be sure to do our bit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
