You can't have a striker missing 3/4 chances a game in that league. IMO we're a much better team than Dunfermline were last season, without looking I'd imagine we've scored more goals, but Wighton managed 16 goals in that team and MacIver's only on 10. Edit: I did look, 63 goals all season for Dunfermline last season and we're on 67 with 8 games to go. Aye I'd like to think we'd have some reinforcements before going into next season. Personally I'd like New GK New Rb donaldson lang mccann spencer new cm morrison new 10 miller new striker Not saying I want rid of the guys who are playing in those positions now. I just want some competition in those positions. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s pretty good going, a core of 7-8 starters. The areas you’ve identified, aye, we’ll need better IMO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grumpyoldman Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 IMO we haven’t played great in the last 4 games, but I couldn’t give a sh1t because we’ve taken 10 points out of the 12 available. At this stage of the season it’s points that matter 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shodwall cat Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 It's been a long hard season so it's not surprising that some of the players that have played virtually every game are probably finding the going a bit tougher at the moment. Only 8 to go thankfully. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That means we have goals ALL THROUGH the team. We dont need a prolific scorer we need a lot of scorers and this team has them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ranaldo Bairn Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 If we drew every game up to and including the Accies one, and they won every other game, we could lose the last two games and still triumph. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RC55 FFC Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 League will be done by Edinburgh (H) imho. We’ll pick up 6pts in the next fortnight & Accies will drop at least 2pts I think. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's actually mental! Just now, Bigbrbairn said: I have used my advanced calculator all afternoon and i have worked out that if we win our next 3 games we win the league. Statto! League title will be on the line against Edinburgh if we beat QotS and Accies beat Stirling. We'd need Hartley to get something off Accies (funny that) but it could be wrapped up as early as the 23rd! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RC55 FFC Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 Accies only need to drop 2pts in these 2 games for us to win it versus Edinburgh as we’d be 19 clear with 18 to play for (assuming we have beaten QOS & Edin) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Springfield Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 One game at a time. We’re almost there but refuse to accept anything until that final whistle is blown and the maths are confirmed. Maybe the Airdrie capitulation is still raw, and after speaking to a fellow bairn that’s been a ST holder for over sixty years, and travelled from London to attend Saturdays game, it just feels right. Let’s get it over the line as quickly as possible. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they have dropped points, that will give us a real lift. if they got all 3 points then we know that we still have it all to do. Should it go to Saturday 30th March and our game against Montrose, again we go into the game already knowing the Accies score from their 3.00pm k.o. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bridge of allan bairn Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 (edited) McGlynn and Falkirk are in a much better place this closed season for attracting very good additions to an already settled and very strong squad. If you were a player considering your options, where else outside the top league would you consider going next season, especially if Dundee United go up and Livi come down? Playing in the Championship, most weeks we are selling out stands home and away (highest attendances in the League, Pars aside possibly), on TV most weeks, playing attractive football, settled and respected management team, happy dressing room, fan owned, modern facilities/stadium, feel good factor back, pot guaranteed game time (squad rotation!?). Probably well over 3,000 season tickets will be sold next season. I'm hoping McGlynn will have his pick of who is available and he wants, especially if we wrap the league up early and can get in for players earlier than others. Higher wages being paid elsewhere might be the only challenge - eg Livi parachute payments, Morton cup run money, sugar daddy owners etc Do we think there are any League 1 good players he might be interested in for next season that we have seen this season?

Of course, there's the best squad in the league over at Hamilton! A good 10 players there who we should try to sign. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
