bridge of allan bairn Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 24 minutes ago, Skyline Drifter said: Falkirk attendances at Palmerston this season are 560 the 1st time and 629 the 2nd time (which to be fair was on live tv at 5:30). In a way this is good news for QoS. Clubs like Stirling, Alloa and Hamilton (all Central belt) will lose far more away fan revenue/budget from Falkirk next season than yourselves. Montrose was a one off given the significance of the match itself, however, the other 3 teams we would always take a healthy away support. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was actually your fans talking about Morton which caused me to click on the thread. What I can draw from the last few threads is that Falkirk take 10,000 fans to away games and won the league on a tiny, shoe string budget that would put the riches of Hamilton, Cove and Queen of the South to shame. And on that note, I think I'll leave you to it. Good day to you. Thank you x -8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scored a brilliant hattrick at Tannadice the day we played QotS at TFS. My mate is a Morton fan. I've asked him if he knows what Oakley's situation is. We take what we want from Morton so if he's out of contract, get him signed 16 hours ago, StuartA said: Unless I’ve missed a subsequent story, he’s available in the summer too: https://gmfc.net/george-oakley-becomes-our-third-january-signing/ Morton's obsession with Falkirk -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HopeStreetWalker Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 3 hours ago, tirso said: I agree, getting ahead of myself but we have a great potential to push on. Falkirk is a growing place in the central belt, can imagine parents moving here want their kids to evade the old firm poison. the atmosphere has improved no end, helps when you are winning. would be great to push on and see a real move up the pack, we can but dream but would love to see the stadium get completed to improve the atmosphere further. it's the one thing that sticks in the craw, looks tinpot and ruins the atmosphere somewhat. Filling the missing link to complete the stadium could do a lot worse than the Ayr United hybrid Standing/Seating set up. It certainly is the cheapest option, faster to build and once and for all end the speculation that goes on season after season with nothing happening. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think they got rid of the old 6k seat rule in 2013 when the SPL and SFL merged. I personally would like to see a bit of safe standing like Celtic have and what exists in Germany as part of the 4th stand. Would be a great bit to watch the football from 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RC55 FFC Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 We’ve taken some blows from lesser clubs over the last few years for where we’ve been and what we’ve done but that will make it all the sweeter when we end up back in the premiership before them even after all of that 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairn in Exile Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 I’ve been having a rethink on the type of stand that we should build opposite the main stand. We should build the cheapest, crappiest, thing possible – you know, something like the Wee Dublin End at Crappielow - and house all the away fans in there and leave the other 3 quality stands for our own top quality fans. So, when it is pishin’ with rain 4,000 bigot brothers’ fans (especially) are sitting there in their cheap, plastic cagoules getting soaked. Or, when it is roasting, they are getting baked. Wee Dublin End Priestfield Road away end, Gillingham - notoriously known as the worst away end in English football. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think you chumps manage even half of that when you visit Cappielow. edit: you also think Cove have a bigger budget than you this season? Wtf am I reading?

Would be a great bit to watch the football from Suspect the Ultra's would migrate there if it was built. Opposite the main stand and the spiritual home of Simon Stainrod's Barmy Army and the Houstie Hard Core. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
