Never watched the game but noticed Mcmanus only on the bench. Sure he returned from injury at the end of last year so surely must be fit? If he's out the picture down there would defo be a great signing for next season./

Not sure Declan 2024 version is the same as the one we had. Also we need to remember that he is struggling for game time as part of a team playing in a one horse race of a league to crowds of less than 300 fans, whose only win so many games due to being bankrolled by wealthy local businessmen which means they are the sole f/t outfit @ the standard of our Lowland league.

The old choir had songs for many of them.

“All together now

Hark the hail the Falkirk sing

the Dundee ran away,

but we will win for evermore because of big John Hay”

 

or the verses of Away the lads of John Haggert aces

Just scraped over half what we got for a league game in league one yesterday. Pitiful crowd.

Sure we will cope. Something about the Falkirk stadium. Just never seem to lose there

Flare burn marks on the pitch. That’ll be a hefty bill straight to Airdrie 

Incorrect. Was thrown by the Welsh mob after their first goal.

You actually lost 3 and drew one of your first 4 visits to TFS but then haven't lost since.

Problem with modern day football is that hardly anyone really hangs about long enough to become a legend and there are far fewer characters in the game to become cult heroes. The days of your housties and big craw are long gone.

Big Doug Baillie was a hero of mine. Then he was a reporter for that awful paper The Sunday Post.

AHH, Big Doug, a guy who took no prisoners. Played as striker few times too.

"Markie, Baillie & Gibson" that was a combo.

Sorry to intrude but do you lot find parking at the stadium okay? Yesterdays visit to the Falkirk stadium was an absolute shambles with car park entrances being fenced off even though there was plenty of room spaces and stewards screaming at folk 😂

Always is chaotic - I did flag it when someone else raised it beforehand.

Serves you right for dancing on our hallowed plastic.
