Reggie Perrin Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 1 hour ago, Bairnardo said: You've got that wrong. It's the majority who identify as bigots, but attend neither them, nor their local clubs, instead choosing to sneer at the likes of Falkirk from their armchair in an FK postcode. It's bad enough being an arse cheek fan that goes to games, but the armchair ones are the worst of all. They all seem to conveniently have some obscure and convenient reason to disproportionately hate their local team. Not obscure or convenient excuses it’s just that they are pathetic wankers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My answer to that 'are you insinuating Rangers are sectarian, Realising they have dug a hole for themselves and the club its a question they dare not answer and its wind and bluster before they slink off. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s just that the ones in Westquarter have a marginally longer left expectancy. I’ve no idea how they can live so close to Falkirk yet hate their local team so much.

Not just Westquarter unfortunately, the whole Redding, Rumford, Braes area is a staunch ghetto. Why? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m pretty sure the Traveling Wilberrys were the resident band in the Welfare for a while. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoBNob Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 13 hours ago, Bairn in Exile said: An article from last year. I had always believed that Albania had the most supporters per capita and that Scotland was second but they don't seem to get a mention. https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11781/12810174/scottish-football-tops-european-attendance-per-capita-table-ahead-of-second-placed-netherlands There used to be a thread that had details on these stats, I'm sure the Faroe Islands were ahead of us. I also think that once you removed the old firm fans we were still 3rd or something like that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's in everybody's best interests that the players get as much pre season as possible. The times we had these flurries or last minute signings just gave the impression we were picking up the dregs (sadly all to often they were) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gets his business done early. We have (I think) 21 signed players so I'm not sure whether there will be many more. No doubt someone will ask him in a press interview. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
