I imagine the gaffer will look at their performances during preseason before deciding to either put them out on loan or retain them for part of his matchday squad. Cheers. Good to know that. They seem to all be doing pretty well. If they aren't quite ready probs a loan deal at a higher level the next step. Would be great to see homegrown players back in the side in the future. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigbrbairn Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 Would be great to see at least one of the young lads being kept and played from the bench. The only way to learn how to cope with senior football is being on the park. We saw that with previous players but in Elvis's time they went straight in due to necessity that season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theres no one taking anything for granted, and if truth be told, apart from the pissed in the hospitality, 4500 odd fans were waiting nervously on that final whistle. Annan have been on a great run and we won’t get it easy next week. We will need to work hard and keep our shape. Happy to take a point tbh. Agree with all of this, only end of a game I’ve been nervous at almost all season. Saturday will be tough but if we bring our A game, etc etc etc 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the Alloa game hopefully being a historic occasion would it be too much to hope for that Falkirk TV have multiple cameras at the game so that we can see the crowd in all its glory? Cameras behind the goals even? I'm sure I watched highlights of one of our recent league games and the other club (can't remember who it was, sorry had )at least 2 cameras in use. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only way to learn how to cope with senior football is being on the park. We saw that with previous players but in Elvis's time they went straight in due to necessity that season. That's why it was good to see us get them all out on loan playing first team games this season as there was no sense having them sitting on our bench doing nothing. Ages are all as of August 2024, so still plenty of time for them to develop. I'd imagine the majority will go out on loan again. Burke & McGinley were only signed as amateurs so are out of contract this summer unless they get a modern apprenticeship or another amateur deal. Owen Hayward (19) - Will most likely be our third choice keeper again next season having played plenty of games in the east of scotland league for Penicuik Athletic. Max McGinley (19) - Right back who made his debut for us as a late sub against Peterhead last season, has been out on loan at Edinburgh Uni in the lowland league. 28 games this season. Logan Sinclair (17) - Left sided centre back who also came on against Peterhead last season has been out playing with Tynecastle in the east of scotland league. Shay Burke (18) - Big centre midfielder on loan at Drumchapel this season in the west of scotland first division. They are currently top of the league. Scott Honeyman (18) - Right winger with 7 goals and 2 assists in 20 games for the shire in his second season running there. Rhys Walker (18) - Left winger started off really well at Camelon scoring for fun. Assisted Lawal's goal away at Alloa earlier in the season.

Nothing wrong with a good debate about football we all have different opinions or it would be pretty boring. Bit different from asking for information regarding our youth players though. I'm sure bainsford can make up his own mind on whether he wants to reply or not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are plans to record more than normally happens. The young student who does "story of the matchday" runs her own company and some of her people will be there on the day to record additional footage. She's very good, as to be fair Luke was before her. In addition to her input, the club were testing / trialing a new remote video camera at the weekend. They intend to capture as much as they can of what will be a historic day. 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At 18 -19 they should be knocking on the door for a start or sub. Fine judgement to make as was proved with Finn Yeats as an 17-18 year old at Aberdeen and got his break at Falkirk. So i'm for giving them a go in particular if its cover for RB, LB, CB all positions that require them, solve that it leaves more cash available for other positions. Also is signals to other young players that are available that Falkirk is the place to go. Time to be bold it's how we picked up Will Vaulks 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess the guys round me might have been right saying it was never a red card after all. What often happens when something is high is that it then goes down because of gravity. Also, a still photograph may take a snapshot of something on the way up, or on the way down. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Long Suffering Bairn Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 I think the "once in a lifetime achievement" claim is an understatement. I am in my 60's. My dad was at the 57 cup final. His dad supported Falkirk from about 1910. I don't know if his dad supported Falkirk, but if he did he was just about old enough to be around at the formation of the club in 1876. None of them saw an invincible Falkirk team. That's a once in a four lifetime event for me (if we manage to get over the line, nothing for granted). And of course for the overwhelming number of supporters everywhere, they have never experienced it and never will. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigbrbairn Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 This unbeaten run owes a lot to Allan v Cove, Donaldson v Edinburgh and the whole team v Kelty Hearts. Those achievements mean just as much as the 4 5 and 7 goal routs along the way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
