Bigmouth Strikes Again Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Peter Houston's interview after the match had Falkirk as the best team for the first 60 minutes. OK, Peter. Once a bawbag, always a bawbag. GIRFUY Houston. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deeboy Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Who gives 2 hoots about Loy any more really? Clearly you do. Every time he's mentioned you HAVE to reply saying nobody cares. You even didn't care that much to make up a false wage story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshmallo Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Have a word with yourself. He doesn't play for us anymore, he doesn't need to acknowledge us in any way. If you were in early enough, he was applauded going down the tunnel pre match, but even that was a bit cringey. When you read some of the ridiculous stuff on here from a few of our fans about him it's no wonder he didn't acknowledge them anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranaldo Bairn Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 He did clearly acknowledge the fairly widespread applause he got after the warm up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deefiant Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 As I said in the end Dundee deserved to win. Three frustrating things for me 1. Three players short last night and it showed. 2. Houston going back into his safety first shell with Baird up front on his own. 3. Both Hibs and Rangers are better overall sides than Dundee IMO and we have played so much better against them. Again good luck to Dundee We'll politely ignore we were playing a centre back pairing from the Super Dundonian Nightmare. Looked much better when Julen came on and will only get better when he's paired with Diddly O'Dea. Your entitled to your opinion on the overall merits of the 2 championship clubs vs Dundee, and you may well be correct, but it's worth noting we were barely out of 2nd gear in the 2nd half and still looked the more dangerous side.

Dee Man Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Back for the weekend I believe Good. I believe it only takes him 15 minutes to grow a full beard anyway. I'd like to thank the Falkirk fans for providing some hilarity and headsgone in equal measure and then being gracious in defeat. The way a match thread should be imo, although the acceptance of defeat and lack of headsgone post-match is a tad disappointing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deefiant Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 This has been playing on my mind today - just a wee quirk in the football rules. Before I start I am not complaining about Falkirks goal at all, it was completely legal and a culmination of a shitebag at Centre half, poor awareness from the rest of the defence and excellent opportunistic play from Baird. It's more just an observation. My point is that had a striker been lying, to all intents and purposes, injured in an offside position when a ball is played through for a runner from deep who is onside and proceeds to score, the injured player is ignored as he is clearly not involved with play at that time and the goal correctly stands. If a defender is lying, to all intents and purposes, injured way behind the rest of the outrushing defensive line with 2 attacking players using him to keep themselves onside, why is he not ignored as he is clearly not involved with play? I know the rules are usually designed to provide a slight edge to the attacking side to encourage exciting games and in no way am I suggesting this rule should ever be changed but I just find the difference between the status of an attacking and defensive player in his context interesting - anyone with a bit more knowledge of the rules got any insight?

Very fair steak pie as well, shame about the second half though. £2 a goal and a steak pie must add up to about £25? Workings: 4x goals at £2 = £8 + steak pie at £17 = Total £25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
