Shodwall cat Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 8 hours ago, Tea and Busquets said: I thought McGinn had a very decent game. Never wasted a ball first half and cut them open a good few times. Of course he can only last around 60 minutes but seems he’s quickly becoming a scapegoat as he’s not got the legs Spencer does. Spot on. I thought he did fine. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Already mentioned Tait, if McGlynn can get a deal in place he would be a tremendous asset. Although the team done well, with Morrison & Miller normally grabbing the headlines, thought Tait was on a different planet. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was sure we were getting beat there for a good while. Not easy being a Bairn. l It goes with the scarf. The countless times bairns fans walked up Hope Street from Brockville in wide-eyed blank faced shock at how on earth did we Lose/Win that is now in the DNA of being a Falkirk supporter. We snarl and disagree at each other but in the end we all want the same thing, what's best for the club. Would not have it any other way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am bored now with the nostalgia, it is selfish IMO of our generation to continue to go on about it. The vast majority of the Ultra’s were never there. My youngest son, who goes home and away, went to one game there. He is bored listening to talk about the 90’s. I would suggest he is not alone. I, like loads of my generation, have fond memories of the old place but it is nothing more than that for me now. The present is where we are at and this is the most relentless team I have witnessed at the club in my time. Granted at a lower level but we have never steam rolled a league like this ever. The only season that came close was Yogi’s promotion season in 2003/4. All comparisons of how it used to be are not relevant any more. Teams, manager and ownership. Time to look forward. I am delighted for the younger fans to finally get reward for their loyalty. They will now have their hero’s, Morrison, Henderson, Lang and Spencer like I had in Gibson, Crunchie and Stainrod. Time to savour the next 7 weeks. It won’t happen again in my lifetime. Edited March 17 by BPM 19 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NUMBER 7 Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 7 hours ago, Skyline Drifter said: As I thought live the equaliser was pretty clearly offside. It's not even a particularly difficult one to get right. It's right in front of the linesman. Changes the momentum of the game. As annoying as that is, Falkirk were the better side first half hour and last half hour and whilst the margin was a wee bit flattering maybe, no complaints about the result. The penalty's soft in that Morrison flung himself but he was clipped and McKechnie conceded that afterward. Did think Gibson might have also got one at the other end at 3-1 (I think)? Some hit from Nesbitt. Enjoy your title celebrations next week. This is what is wrong with the offside law as it is now. It needs to go back to being clear daylight between players and give the forward the advantage. To say Morrison was clearly offside is a bit much and the closeness to the linesman makes his decision difficult In my opinion yesterday’s move that led to the equaliser should be onside and ultimately goal. Being a bawhair in front of a defender shouldn’t be deemed offside. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might have made the 16s game if the weather had been decent but I'm still drying my gear out from last night. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being a bawhair in front of a defender shouldn’t be deemed offside. When you think of the angle of the centre line there, and where Morrison is compared to the defender, I'm not even convinced he's any sort of offside never mind clearly. If VAR was involved it would be a 3 or 4 minute f**k about looking for shirt sleeves and knees etc. We can almost all agree that VAR is shite and we want nothing to do with it, so for me there's very little if any credible complaint that Morrison isn't given offside. For clarity, I just straight up don't think he's offside at all. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nesbitt’s goal some hit and maybe a special mention to Tait. How on earth he was unable to fit in at Hamilton is quite mind blowing. Great vision and a proper footballer. Tait obviously wasn’t good enough for the best squad in the league 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
