kiddy Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 Earliest it can be over is at home to Edinburgh. Wins there, and next week in Dumfries, + Accies dropping points against either the Binos, at home, or Cove, away. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

falkirkbairn23 Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 I wouldn't mind Oliver extension as long as he's not on, relatively, big money 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reggie Perrin Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 Thought Tait was excellent today Spencer less so but can excuse him for a very rare poor performance. Said to the lad next to me that we were missing Henderson in the midfield and got the reply that he was the big man’s faither! Oliver has been a bit of an unsung hero this season worth keeping him next season in my opinion. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PedroMoutinho Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 Bit of a strange game with us not at our best. In saying that, we deserved the win. Tait looks like a good option in midfield. Shanley didn’t do much wrong but again struggled to really influence the match. Maybe slightly harsh in some of the fringe players, but I do still think we need to move the likes of Oliver on if we have aspirations of competing at the top end of the championship. He would go with my best wishes though as he has made an important contribution. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shodwall cat Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 We huffed and puffed a bit today but the 3 points are all that matters. Certainly missed a bit of physicality in the middle of the park where we struggled at times although I thought Tait was excellent today. Spencer was uncharacteristically poor for me and nesbitt didn't have a great game. Thought shanley played well some great hold up play and lovely link ups with Morrison and miller he was unfortunate to get hooked but macivers flick on for the winner was just what we have come to expect from him. Big hendo was decent years struggled for me and miller failed to make much of an impact. Ross was lovely when he came on.All.in all another 3 points ticked off and Dumfries next . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, imo we will need better quality next season than fringe players who have ultimately not been good enough to start in league 1. I also would like another option at number 10, which is realistically where Oliver would be playing as I don’t see it being upfront. We have 19 players in the squad as it stands so I don’t see us signing another 8 players if this season’s fringe players are retained. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The most obvious one we want to re-sign is Yeats, but I guess he has offers and there’s negotiations. We won with Cal though. So yeah it’s about 8 more. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d presume a loan player or two over and above that as well. Then would also would love to see one or more of the apprentices who have spent this season on loan making in impact for us, guess that comes down to how they perform preseason.

Will be interesting to see what happens with the apprentices. If they weren't ready for league 1 this season I can't see them being ready for the championship next. I expect they will all go out on loan again, maybe to league 1 clubs this time to see how they get on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed- there’s no point them sitting in the stand here so I guess they’ll probably go back out on loan (hopefully to a higher level). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McGlynn singing Oliver's praises here - does anybody else think that it sounds like he is going to be offered a deal? And apparently over 2,000 Bairns at the game today so maybe beaten our 2,008 at NDP. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranaldo Bairn Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 A frustrating day, in many ways, topped off by a fantastic release at the end and a good old school jump around. Not our greatest performance obviously but 3 points and UP EH ROAD. Goaly Oliver struck late to crush the title hopes of both Alloa and Montrose, despite both pulling off great wins today. But sorry boys, if a NAVY BLUE JUGGERNAUT is coming through, you better move aside. Just shows you what shooting first time can do! Falkirk are now guaranteed at least 2nd place in our tier 3, season 5 cinching. 10th 9th 8th 7th 6th 5th 4th 3rd 2nd 1st 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He absolutely must be offered a new contract. He even said in an interview not too long ago that he's happy with his current role and loves being part of this squad. We'd be daft to let him go. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
