Think Austin McCann got sent off and a penalty in first minute. I was there but too lazy to walk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes that's the financial road we were on which led to the Archibald challenges and as you say eventually liquidation. Unhappy memories for me if not for many of our rivals. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigbrbairn Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 Not confident about a Falkirk win in this one. Granted we are playing a lot better and now have a bit of fight but the Airdrie team are excellent on their day. I would rate this as a harder game than our games against the Fife.

I’ll have no colours on so I can brave an Airdrie pub if need be The Albert is probably the best pub and is also closest to the ground. The West End Bar is good and close to the station but is in the opposite direction and would be a bit of a walk to the ground. Cue Here is always a good shout but you’re probably best to just head straight to The Albert to maximise your drinking time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get intae them Falkirk Certainly we have an ingrained pessimism when it comes to Airdrie due to our honking results in recent years, but if we really are in the process of turning a corner as well as keeping the pressure on the Fifers, then games like this simply have to be won. A defeat here, and a Fifer win, and that’s pretty much game up in terms of winning the league. We will be back to using the “if” word again and convincing ourselves that mathematically we are still in it. This is a game we need to win. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Wind Chime Jimmy Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 Airdrie are hands down best footballing team in this league. I'd real concern about playing them recently over 2 legs. Happy with the Pars 4 points tbh. Much as I detest Airdrie (worse than Falkirk), I hope them pump Falkirk. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get intae them Falkirk I'd say I have a fear about the game but it's not a game we can't win. Airdrie were the best footballing team last season for me but in the two games so far they are nowhere near that level this season, both teams very ordinary in the draw at the TFS. The defeat @ Airdrie for me wasn't as bad as a lot suggested, injuries and not taking your chances killed us 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rizzo Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 (edited) Anyone happen to know if there is a decent amount of disabled parking at the ground for away fans? A family member is coming with us today and they are not able to walk far. We do have a blue badge.

And losing 4 nil to us the last time you were at our ground wasn't a complete capitulation? But you 'properly managed' to forget that I'm sure. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's stewards on the gates who can direct you. Edited February 25, 2023 by Glenmavis Diamond 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
