Any risk to the match tonight? I see there’s a yellow warning for that bit of Scotland issued? 

[Proudtobeabairn]

I think there'll be a decent turnout for the TNS game regardless of kick off time. Unusual opponents and the chance to reach another cup final and hopefully extend our lead as the most successful team in challenge cup history

Team on their way now so I doubt it

[Bigbrbairn]

TNS average home crowd last season 308 ! Think we can beat that?

Time was dictated by the Welsh channel

I’ve heard of the moon’s gravitational pull causing high and low tides but a body of water dictating the kick off time of a football match is a new one on me.

Tonight's game postponed according to my phone.

Is this game available to UK viewers on Montrose TV or just overseas?

Apologies, false alarm it seems. Both sky and BBC pinged me notifications to say it was off and the Sky app showed it too. Strange.

Falkirk TV only if you take out a subscription (£18 a month) and are 'overseas'. Otherwise I think it'll be through Montrose which is an automated camera job for £12.50.

Automated

Whats with the lighting in both corners

Then there’s the commentary

Even more reason to watch on Falkirk TV if possible. Support for the club and human camera operators!

Not a bad point at all. Let’s go out and beat Cove now. Draw not acceptable here. 

[FFC 1876]

Probably one of the worst performances this season. Really does my tits in when we've been horrid all game and McGlynn does f**k all to try change things about. Putting Allan on in the 80th minute is far too late.

Cross, another cross, why don't we try a cross, how about another cross, have we tried a cross, cross again, have another cross why don't you. Graham and Dillon lapped it up.

[Bairnardo]

Desperate lack of any quality up top tonight. That's a tough as f**k fixture though so we remain unbeaten and even the obvious banana skins aren't tripping us up yet, but aye...  That's a grim watch tonight. Second half especially where the referee just broke the game up relentlessly.

Did not enjoy. 

[GunnerBairn]

Awful to watch and we were far from our best. Only positives are we remain unbeaten, took a point from a very tough ground, and still top by the skin of our teeth. Massive improvement required for Saturday please.

This is going to go right to the wire as can’t see us pulling away from Hamilton. Really think we need one or two in the door in January as they will strengthen, feel we need another option up front at least. Just hope FSS continues to grow to allow a couple of signings as it could make all the difference.

[Anthony Fitzgerald]

Broken record but we really need an alternative for when it’s not working with MacIver, who’s been a great signing so far. 

[GMBairn]

No need to panic yet but I said a few weeks ago we had too many poor performances and results creeping into our games.

Our form in the last 7 is now patchy with 3 draws and our away form is miles away from title winning. 4 points dropped from the last 9 just isn't good enough.

We need to be more clinical with the chances we are getting and make sure we are putting teams to bed away from home as well as at home.
