About 500 so far. I’m not sure this game will have the average 1,500 travelling fans we seem to be carrying this season, however you never know I suppose. 

Think the average might be about 2,000 at away games in the league. Fag packet approx calculations/guesswork, (someone with better info might be able to confirm)...

Dunfermline 2,700, Raith 2,500, Airdrie 2,000, Partick 1,424, Morton 1400

Makes over 10,000 at 5 games, even if less its not going to be much less, very impressive with the away cup games to pay for as well in a relatively short time period.

Will obviously be much less at Hamilton this Friday for a number of reasons so that will pull it down a bit. Could be interesting total at the end of the season, especially if we continue to challenge at the top.

100% did.

Lets not forget though he only had the opportunity to do that because you guys staged a pitch invasion after Keillor Dunn's "winning" penalty a minute earlier and caused the referee to add on a pile of extra time. 😜

Had a wee rage to myself at the time because of the premature celebrations.

Just wanted the final whistle.

Can’t be many Frank’s that age! There may be hope yet for the old traditional names, although it’s probably spelt Franck.

Nothing worse than folk not knowing how to pronounce names right.

Scotland forced to play either Che Adams or Lyndon Dykes as strikers tell you a lot about the lack of centre forwards in the Scottish game. One born in Leicester and the other in Australia 

Dykes born here on the Gold Coast. I know the guy that used to coach him at youth level.

His mum and dad are from Scotland so perfectly entitled to be called up, his sister represented Australia at gymnastics.

Always thought he was a decent enough footballer but never imagined him playing international football, that said he's scored a few goals at that level.

Nice family day out from across the water for them to see the mighty Falkirk. Looking forward to the game next week, hopefully a cracking atmosphere and a few goals from us

Certainly none of us watching the one each draw with us when he dived for a pen would've ever thought that in a short while he'd be playing for Scotland. Was pretty much anonymous that night other than his Greg luganis impression.

See Livvy have signed Danny Wilson. Can’t imagine he’ll be peanuts. You’d think they’d learn.

Not sure what problems they have that would be solved by signing an 80s pop band.

Their fans claim that they don't have a bigger budget than us, dontcha know?
