latapythelegend Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 Looking forward to Saturday, both teams scoring goals at the moment so hopefully shapes up to be a decent game. Without the pressures of the league I can see both teams going for it. With any luck we will have a striker signed in time. Weather dependent I can see a good 1000-1200 going over. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Looks like McGlynn will once again be fielding a side without a recognised striker. Given we scored four times against Clyde, that is perhaps not a fearful prospect. Ricey will once again go for it. He tends to be a very attack minded manager, so I think it will be a seriously open game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a target man for sure, but he's absolutely a striker for me 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bairn88 Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Down to the bare bones for Saturday now. Away support will need to be loud - get right behind them from the start. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
latapythelegend Posted January 20, 2023 Author Share Posted January 20, 2023 Can see this being off for another silly reason. It will barely be above freezing until Saturday afternoon so no doubt another frozen pipe will put the game off. Holding off on tickets until Saturday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigbrbairn Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Can see Henderson dropping back in Donaldsons absence and hope young Finn Yeats covers. Who knows though. Hope Nesbit does not have to cover back as he has been a revelation in the more advanced role 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 There's plenty options. I suspect Brad Mckay will slot straight into an otherwise unchanged setup tbh 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have all seen the difference that Henderson makes to our midfield now so why make two positional changes when only one will do? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falkirkfan1985 Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 Game in doubt at all? Am sure the pitch will be fine, but thinking the surrounding areas may be a cause for concern 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeodhasXD Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 Will post an update in about 30 mins. Kids beat fauldhouse 5-0 last night while it was -3 degrees so it should be fine. Going to be warmer today than it was yesterday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just a bairn Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 This fixture is a derby in my eyes (although to be fair TFS doesn’t really lend itself to it) , and nobody will convince me otherwise. Both teams in reasonably good form and scoring plenty of goals. Great chance for either team to progress. I fancy us although Donaldson out is a blow, but I’ve been reasonably happy with McKay this year when he has played centre back. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alloamad Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 I did but was out and about at 0730. Warmed up nicely now. Great conditions for the game today, especially compared to last week Both teams have lost important players due to loan recalls. I feel we’ve enough strength in depth to cope though. Hopefully Scougall fit and an unchanged line up for us. Big Connor was unbelievable first half and loves a game against Falkirk, gotta be on the score sheet again Substitution wise, I’d have Rodden on instead of LD. LD looked far from fit last week and didn’t put enough into the game for me. C,Mon the Waspees 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairnardo Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 Brilliant from McCann and a fantastically timed run from Mckay to spare the blushes of a half where we were second to far too much. Alloa are playing high. We should be looking for no more than 2 or 3 passes before looking to spring someone in behind down the flanks. When we move the ball quick to McCann and Kennedy they show threat. Morrison is off it today. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
