It’s taking him a while to get back up to fitness after his illness/injury. He’s also a bit slight for PL football and might need to bulk up a bit. But looks promising and very skilful. Not sure yet if he’ll be out wide up front or more central in midfield. He might get more time on Saturday with Toney suspended we will need some additional attacking options. Hopefully Damsgaard will play a fair bit in the WC. Shame, if you get to Falkirk early enough you'll catch the locals throwing some spears at the sun, all the best. 3 hours ago, NavyBlueArmy1876 said: Very sensible.

I think Farid El Alagui may have been the inspiration. Also remember the 4-0 thrashing of Fulham mentioned. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CallumPar Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 More than 1500 sold in the away end now. Which is more than the 1300 that Falkirk brought to East End earlier in the season. Good effort from the Pars fans, no doubt be close to selling out the north stand come Saturday. -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if by 1300 you mean 1800-2000 then yes you are correct. Stand holds 3000 with 2150 of that in the upper tier, as you can see pretty much full. We'll almost certainly have more fans across the two games - isn't this when you usually trot out the line that this is because you 'don't care' and it's 'not a derby'?

DA Baracus Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 If Falkirk don't win the league this season they can at least console themselves with the Crowd Trophy, once again, as fans of teams in the leagues above them look on in envy, desperate to trade being in a higher league for having more fans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, I wasn’t actually serious about the 1300. I just know Falkirk fans love a good crowd w**k and made up lies (like saying you had 2k fans there) after they came to East End. I’m pretty sure you had 1500-1600 there. There were a lot more gaps in the stand than a blurry picture from the other end shows. If you have say 20 rows of 20 seats and average 15 people in each row, as long as the gaps aren’t in the same place in each row, that section will look full in a picture like that, despite only being 75% full. It was a good crowd you brought through. But it honestly wasn’t as high as you seem to think. There are a lot of visible gaps in the two sections furthest to the right and a few in other sections, which tells you the top section was nowhere near the 84% full that even your 1800 estimate suggests, never mind 2000 fans, which would be 93% full. There’s a few hundred empty seats in the section on the right alone. You brought a decent crowd, why not be happy/proud of that, rather than inflating the figures for your own egos? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Falkirk fans love a good crowd w**k", then posts that inane drivel about the gaps in between seats in a stand . You've got to laugh. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
