What Pars fans could do is buy a spare ticket for each of you hard up minks and donate them to Falkirk individuals. However, since you messed up the heritage quarter in our beautiful city centre, you can away and raffle. Horrendous language -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just so you know for the future, this is a widely used slur against the travelling community. Consider yourself educated on its use.

scottsdad Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 f**k sake. The previous match thread at least had a few laughs. This has gone dark very early. Anyway, we need a result to maintain any chance of a title challenge. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chubbychops Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 FFuck know with Pars. We never look great but still seem to come back to draw when behind or win a game we maybe don't deserve. The team is full of fight and very good at defending, so clearly not a fluke to be in our position. All the pressure is on Falkirk. Think we will go on to win the league whatever happens. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said a couple of months ago that you would 'shitfest' your way to the title, which seemed to upset some Pars fans at the time. I didn't mean that Dunfermline were shit, just that you had found a way to grind out results. Nothing's happened since to make me change my mind. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be lying if I said I couldn't care, because I have grown up through times like the Bert Paton era when we scored goals for fun and were exciting to watch. Admittedly I harp back to those days and nothing has matched it since. We are where we are and if it means stuffy football to progress then so be it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After 4 seasons in this hell hole I would love to be in the position you are in. I honestly couldn’t give a shit how Falkirk played if it meant us getting out of this league. A season full of 1 nil victories, playing zero football, not that I’m saying that what the Pars are doing would do me fine. Hate this league and the fact that yourselves apart there are very few away fans and the atmosphere at most games is piss poor. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t remember your post, I can’t complain about the term shitfesting, indeed I’d almost embrace it, but I do feel an overall sense that some feel we are playing ‘wrong’ football and that any success is negatively influenced as a result, I certainly want to kick back against that kinda talk 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Wind Chime Jimmy Posted December 30, 2022 Share Posted December 30, 2022 What Pars fans are watching week in week out is in reality, brutal. However McPake is showing a level of managerial competency way above a good few of his predecessors. He has made us hard to beat and makes decisions that win us games. The hope is we make a few astute January signings that will both bolster the squad and obviously improve us. I have personally found this league uninspiring and a slog, Falkirk games apart. Looking forward to the game on the 2nd and I hope we stuff them (bunch of clerts). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye I was just out in it there and it was bad with plenty surface water. East End's drainage is pretty good, fingers crossed the weather calms down a bit. Monday is meant to be dry here so hopefully give it a day to dry out before the game on Tuesday. It's been a pretty dreadful set of festive fixtures with all games being played before Christmas then nothing again for us until the 2nd, it this game got canned it would be very disappointing, especially as it would end up going to a Tuesday night or something. FWIW I think the game will go ahead, I've seen roads closed due to flooding in Dunfermline and the game's still went ahead. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoBNob Posted December 30, 2022 Share Posted December 30, 2022 There's cars underwater at the Asda and College on Halbeath Road, so if the game does go ahead, I heartily recommend Falkirk fans parking there, cheers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

badgertheeuro24witness Posted December 30, 2022 Share Posted December 30, 2022 Similar weather to a Boxing Day fixture a few years ago & the EEP pitch looked great. A couple of drunk folk in front of us spent the first 15 minutes insisting it was an artificial surface until someone corrected them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking ahead, I suppose what you've got to think of next is that if (and most likely when) you get promoted, will McPake be able to change his style to be able to get you challenging for the Championship? I can't see you being able to replicate results the way that you have down here against largely better teams playing the same way. I don't doubt that you'll bring in better players but, again, will McPake be able to get the best out of them? It will be interesting to see what happens. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who apart from Fifers actually gives a f**k about Dunfermline’s prospects should they get promoted? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
