I know he got suspended for calling them “the sevco franchise” (wrongly imo, the club should have stuck by him), but he was back for years after that but seems to have disappeared more recently. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's with Queen's Park now - being paid as opposed to doing it for free I understand. I think he still does the odd game when it doesn't clash with a QP match. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new guy at TFS is also pretty good so no complaints all round. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of my best memories as a wee boy - hope there are lots of kids get the same this season. I was the same, my first season of going every week and didn’t realise how special it was! Now 33 years later and my son is the same age and now absolutely hooked, it’s been brilliant to share the same emotions with him 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been a pretty steady spiral of horror and disappointment since then, so I just pray for their sake that we safely see out the next 11 games (or however many it takes). TBF, they have been more positive than me through the last couple of years especially! - Real troopers @Langtoonlass 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JS_FFC Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 When we first went down to L1 in 2019 I naively assumed we’d be straight back up (I maintain that we would have gone straight back up if not for the league being cut short and playoffs cancelled) and I always said to my mates that there should be no over the top celebrations because being in the championship is the absolute bare minimum standard for a club of our size and there should only be polite applause for achieving that. Having said that, it’s been five years now and we’ve not had a proper pitch invasion for a really long time, so f**k it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JS_FFC Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 (edited) It’s mad that only just over two weeks ago we were looking at the table and saw that Hamilton just needed to beat Annan at home to have a chance to come to TFS and win to only be 2 points behind. February 2024 will be remembered as the month it was won for us. Not only have we picked up 9 precious points from our 3 fixtures but Hamilton also lost 3 straight. We have absolutely left them for dead in the 3rd quarter of the season. Edited February 26 by JS_FFC 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember when the choir at Brockville would sing the Sash and to my shame being English and not knowing joined in. At some point in the 80s we stopped and most of the bigotry was quickly closed down. I don’t think we have many left in our ranks. i also ran on the pitch at Clydebank despite being an adult. I remember how anxious that whole match was - when they scored it really was brown pants time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last week listening to bitter upset Celtic fans was fantastic. When the blue bigots lose I’m delighted too. If they both disappeared suddenly I would return to church as a believer I hate them both so much 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shodwall cat Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Seeing those unbeaten season lists it's got to be a whole lot easier doing it over 18 games than 36 so I wouldn't compare those to others. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
