champions Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Loved broomfield as a ground, some classic matches. Used to stand at the fence for the banter The last time at the shyberry I was on the Roman bar bus, no idea what the score was but we were in some rutty pub next to the ground, some tinky locals started pounding it with rocks and smashed the bus windows . Place was a hellhole 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinheed Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Broomfield was great, preferred it before the fence though. The nearest pub is now a lovely welcoming tavern with no rocks nearby. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrDust Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 23 hours ago, Sanity check needed. said: I'm a falkirk fan and I agree, this league was never going to be walk over! With the squad we have assembled, a manager setting up the team correctly and the players showing the right attitude we should be promoted come May but so far we only look good on paper. On the same paper it has McKinnon - Manager !! God knows what 11 will start, I'd guess if fit, same back 4, Goalie, Tidser and Sammon, probably McManus, the rest is tombola time. Formation of 4-4-2(diamond) or 4-1-3-2. Tactic of hoofball to Sammon mixed with 12 passes doing nothing to end up in a wide area, cut back for the full back to continue the hoofball into the box. If we lose this, McKinnon will be hanging by a thread, will be the only silver lining if we do 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airdrieman Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Hutton MacDonald Fordyce Crighton McCann Thomson Hawkshaw/Reilly Roberts Carrick Gallagher Smith Subs - McKay, Kerr, Wedderburn, Roy, Gallacher/McNeil, Hawkshaw/Reilly, Millar/Cowan. Would like to see us drop both Wedderburn and Millar and just go for it. Hawkshaw and Roberts would both give us a lot more energy and creativity. The other boy from Accies, Reilly, is a midfielder too so he might be worth a punt. Can't see both of them being dropped though, at least one of them will be starting. If both are starting I'm gonna work myself into all sorts of shoots. Apart from the midfield, revert back to the back 4 and play Gallagher and Smith (our two best forwards) upfront please. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sanity check needed. Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Think the main is about 3.5kAnd its been a very long time since another stand was "offered" to anybody. So long in fact that there may be some major work required to have it made inhabitable. According to FFC website we are getting the east stand in Saturday 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Id love it if you just came at us but you'd be best packing the centre of the park and then hitting us on the break. Allow us to get the ball to dixon as he'll just float it in to the goalie. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the clubs intention to allocate Sections A, B, and C in the Main Stand to away fans but are now opening the East Stand on the advice of the Police. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
champions Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 The stainrod goal against airdrie is one of favourite goals, no idea why as it wasn't even that spectacular but I used to try and recreate it at the old comely park ash pitch. Good times 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
