Guest Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 Not the best, but last season, we would have been well beaten. The downside is we still can’t do the business against the better sides. We really can’t get to where we want to be by repeatedly and consistently failing to beat Dunfermline, Airdrie or Montrose. There’s no way we will be down in 6th this season, but equally, we won’t win the league if we don’t start beating those three sides. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crying to you mate……you sound like a keyboard warrior and probably attends Fck all games Not looking to offend and I spend a fortune taking family away but I'm not looking for that sort of recognition. O just can't believe how far we've fallen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigbri Bairn Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 Jesus christ, Michael Gardyne, Scottish version of Ronaldo. Deary me. Experience counts for nothing when you are up against a you are up against an 18 year old laddie who has only played right back a handfull of times. Okay Finn should have mauled him! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JulioBairn Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 Refreshing to hear that McGlynn doesn’t see that as a good point today. Granted it’s an improvement on previous years but a draw against Montrose can surely never be seen as a good result. A huge few weeks coming up now, let’s do this 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairnardo Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 Unless you think that we are going to win every game, for which there is literally no precedent in football at any level let alone ours, a point at Montrose is absolutely a decent result. In fact, I think when you break it up into quarters, with our next games with the two teams above us, and Airdrie at hone this time around, Montrose away becomes the hardest game of this quarter and the one where a point is most palatable. Wanting to win every week doesn't mean you need to abandon paying any attention to what's been happening for the last few years, or indeed how association football over a long season actually works. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shodwall cat Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 The days of us having a team that could take 4 or 5 off the likes of Montrose are long gone I'm afraid. It's a good point and the unbeaten run continues. If we win our home games and pick up points the vast majority of away games we'll not be far away. Pars won one nil by an 89th min own goal at home. They aren't pulling up any trees nor are anyone else just now. We do need to sort our finishing our though it's costing us points. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebobsboy Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 We would have lost that game last season. Its a point gained imo. This league is still very tough, maybe not as wild as the championship in regards results, there's a long way to go, and very little in it I expect that to continue. Dunfermline seem to be a tough nut to crack but they aren't a great side. Penalty box striker required in January for us who can take a chance and we will take a bit of stopping. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JulioBairn Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 Of course we won’t win every game but we need to get rid of this losers mentality. A draw at Montrose is not a good result no matter how pish we were last year. Finishing 4th is not an achievement no matter where we finished last year. We are on a good run but unfortunately we never turned up today. If we had we would’ve won the game. At least McGlynn gets that and didn’t try and dress that up as anything other than disappointing today. I fancy we’ll bounce back on Tuesday 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairnardo Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 Why are folk hanging up on the fact that it's Montrose? They are a side who have been equal to or better than us for basically all of our time in this league. I guess there are a few cases of folk still not understanding why we are at the level we are at. We started off the season almost unanimously wanting to make the playoffs. No one was talking the title except for some forlorn vague hope that miracles happen. Now wev got folk turning their noses up at a point away to a fellow contender, who chucked us about like empty tracksuits as recently as last season. Of course you can criticise the performance and make a point about where maybe we could have won the game, but anyone trying to make the rather bare, lazy point that we "should be beating Montrose" is either utterly delusional, or their brain started buffering in 2017 and hasn't kicked in again yet. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m 100% with you. Folk lamenting certain posters being quiet on the back of some good results however it’s the same with the Morrison haters. I really don’t get how anyone can’t see how he’s the most effective attacking player we have. No doubt he can be frustrating but he’s had the top goal contributions the past couple of seasons. His ability alone creates chances and although he can squander some, I’d much rather have a player willing to have a go than be too scared to shoot. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BountyBairn Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 Yeah he is selfish but also top scorer is he not? I was raging he missed don’t get me wrong, it was on balance the wrong decision but understand his selfishness to a certain degree 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
18BAIRN76 Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 I believe that Morrison is a greedy b*****d and can be incredibly wasteful, while also thinking he's been one of our best players this season and we're a better team with him in it. Talk of dropping him is mental. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bairn88 Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 Morrison top scorer by 4. Would always back him to be the crucial scorer at the right place right time e.g Dunfermline. And yes, he’s a greedy b*****d who doesn’t pass. That’s why he’s with us 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardle is Magic Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 Any Falkirk/Dunfermline fan thinking their team should just show up and easily dispatch Montrose on their own patch is deluded. They're a decent side with good players and an excellent coach. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're a decent side with good players and an excellent coach. Just to clarify, I don’t think anyone has said we should “easily dispatch them”. However we went there today with a better team than them and on a good run of form so why are we trying to pretend a draw was a good result. Why shouldn’t we have expected to win today? Why can’t we be disappointed that we didn’t? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knee jerk reaction Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 As the guy has "Hartley" in his username, I'm going to take a wild guess that he's not a real Falkirk fan! If only there was some name for someone who posts on social media to wind folk up or get a reaction 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
