He got sent off for the challenge and said he knew nothing about it as he was concussed from a previous challenge. I remember him getting sent off for lamping a Dumbarton player at boghead. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 600 unrenewed season tickets = £150k Not as much as that. Average price will be around £190 tops because of free kids tickets and concessions 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ranaldo Bairn Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Was it not Nick Cusack that did it or was that another incident. Blatant elbow.Wouldve been hammered for it these days. Cusack elbowed him and broke his cheekbone. Absolutely cuntish but typical motherwellian behaviour.Baptie was pictured with a black eye right enough after the Ayr game, from the incident that concussed him. I think Watson was injured by an opponent, and he melted the boy in revenge, before claiming he remembered nothing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Musketeer Gripweed Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 The thing you have forgotten was Baptie was sent off after about 5 minutes in that Ayr game. The broken cheek against Motherwell the 4-2 cup defeat. I was fuckingh raging that day. Not as bad as the Eric Martindale game at Fir Park right enough. I hate Motherwell, which is quite ironic in a big way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranaldo Bairn Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Let's not forget Colin O'Neill getting one of pur players sent off in a previous cup debacle. Peter Hetherston I think. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swordfishtrombone Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 The Falkirk Unofficial (FU) fanzine had a copy around the time of the Cusack elbow that had the picture of Cusack elbowing Baptie on the front cover. It was brutal and intentional. I wish I'd kept those fanzines they were excellent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To think we have been to three cup finals that couldn't lace that teams boots is mind blowing.

Had many a great night up there. Our player of the year dances were legendary. We regularly used to miss the start of away games cos we cudni get them all out the pub and the bus would be late leaving [emoji16] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swordfishtrombone Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 There is a video on YouTube of the game at Broomfield later on in that season that Falkirk won by 3 goals the game Eddie May scored a backheel tap in. That is the best Falkirk goal I have seen live direct skilful play and a piss take finish against our biggest rivals for the league.Jock Brown on the commentary says that there was 5000 Falkirk fans at that game unbelievable now for our away support to be so big. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was a fantastic team. We didn't just beat teams then we ripped the absolute pish out of them. That goal was a thing of beauty. For me the period we had Stainrod in our side will never be bettered. That's why although I adore Crunchie, Stainrod will always be my favourite player. The lobbing of Lyndsey Hamilton from the kick off is probably my best moment ever in football. Spoke to Crunchie years ago in the Leapark about it and he said Simon just said just touch the ball. He said he hadn't a clue what he was going to do. The man was a God. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ka202 Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Gordon Marshall saves Owen Coyles penalty, launches it up the park and Simon Stainrod volleys it past John Martin. Cue Stainrods backflip that the cameras missed. Great away days. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
