I calculated it the other day. Something like 0.85 points average per game for the baldy b*****d, 0.75 for the tramp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poet of the Macabre Posted November 6, 2017 Author Share Posted November 6, 2017 Just now, Shandon Par said: That late goal at Brechin for Dumbarton must have been a crushing blow. We've been down there and know you get kicked again and again when you're in those relegation places. Really feeling for them this morning. We all have a laugh but don't want Falkirk to go down. Hope they can get back on track soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syd Puddefoot Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 Dundebtdodgers getting desperate now in their antics and no wonder. Six wins in 30 games against us is utterly shameful and embarrassing for a 'club' thats meant to have a rivalry with us. Their fans till to pay their creditors too. Pitiful really is.

HoBNob Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 . I thought AJ was supposed to be the best thing since sliced bread? It's no one elses fault that you're a fucking idiot tbf. Unfortunately theres's no highlights of Higginbottom greeting his eyes out in the changing rooms after making a pure cant of himself once again . Meh, Higgy got sent off but we got a draw.The less talented Sibbald went away all summer whoring himself to anyone who was interested, got told to jog on due to being absolutely gubbins, and got sent off after a diddy performance of such prepositions that he was hoping he could play as well as Nat in our 2-0 defeat at TFS. Sadly no highlights of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Macabre is looking increasingly desperate across 3 seperate Falkirk threads I wasn't there on Saturday but just want to lend you my moral support. We've been through these tough times and have seen other friends and rivals such as Cowdenbeath and Raith suffer at the hands of former Jim Jefferies pupils. We just don't want the same to happen to you guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their crowds are down 14% this season too. It's a vicious circle as Hartley will need funds for players in January if he's still in the job. We sensibly budgeted on the lower crowds this year but happily our attendances are up 33%! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A shame to see the locals abandoning the team when they need them most tbh. Surely your crowds that you now put out are up 33% having changed the way you report them this season to include season ticket holders whether they turn up or not. Unless of course you have figures that report them the same way as you did last season or you have changed the figures reported last season to include season ticket sales . If you havent then the rise reported isnt accurate in any way. The fact that hibs are no longer in the league and have been replaced by ICT could easily explains our drop in attendances. No surprise really. At least we're still getting over 4000 a week even though we're shit compared to the piss poor crowds you were getting the year you got relegated pre embarrassing clammer for money. I notice their still blaming our goal on the pitch on the pars website . Watch the replay if the keeper hadnt made a mess of it by taking a pace to his right he would've saved it no bother.

brokeville Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 Can’t believe that the keepers blaming the pitch for a slip at the goal. Watch the highlights and you can see quite clearly he steps to the right as the free kicks taken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poet of the Macabre Posted November 6, 2017 Author Share Posted November 6, 2017 Was very charitable of Murdoch I thought. There was no way Falkirk were scoring if it wasn't for an error at the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recall a season they were locked in a bitter title race with the club they despise most on the planet and they could only muster up 15 fans.

We were quite open about expecting to take a six figure hit on the gate money now our big rivals have left the league. Smaller budget for the first team this year was the result. No great secret and all documented on our website by the chairman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
