I would certainly take a point. I watched the first 70 mins and stopped. With respect you were 2nd best with your two fullbacks, especially the LB getting rogered. I hear you were better last 20 mins but up to then you didn’t look great IMO. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WC Boggs Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 I'll just be happy to have a full and fit squad for this game. Falkirk are always a real uphill challenge and I don't think it will be any different this time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebobsboy Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 Think we'll just do enough to get the three points won't be easy and even if we are winning we will no doubt contrive to let Stirling back in the game. 2-1. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quentin Taranbino Posted August 19, 2023 Author Share Posted August 19, 2023 Pretty confident we can take three points off Falkirk or at the very least a draw. Can't see us losing to them to be honest. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cammy Clark (our left back) was given a horrid time especially the first half by Morris and Devlin. I thought he was a certainty to be sent off. Luckily Morris didn't seem to have a very good final ball. Thankfully Clark won't have to come up against that standard every week 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dumb yatt Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 2 days to go, topic beginning to have some relevance. 4 days between matches is not ideal. Did Stirling emerge from Dons game without injury? Possibly Saturday damage assessment and light training. Today friends and family. Monday team talk and more light training. DY continues to get the balance right. PS re Battle of Falkirk 1746. What colours did the away team play in? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was worried about him on a booking for the second half, but Morris didn't get past him once after half time. Cummins got drawn to the ball centrally a couple times in the second half, but Duk didn't have a sniff against him in a one-on-one (which was surprising, but hey - AC did well). Aberdeen had a strong spell of about 10 mins after the first goal where it seemed like they might blow us away, but to suggest they were somehow clearly the better team is just nonsense 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quentin Taranbino Posted August 20, 2023 Author Share Posted August 20, 2023 We have been really fortunate in our fixtures in that we have been given four of the perceived 'easier' fixtures to start the season - Edinburgh, Alloa, Falkirk and Kelty (although Kelty look decent so far this season). We have a great chance to get 12 points on the board before we meet Hamilton and then have the tricky fixtures vs Cove and QOS near the end of the quarter. Whilst I expect us to comfortably take at least 4 points from Falkirk and Kelty, it wouldn't be end of the world if we got beat from Kelty. 9 out 12 points is more than acceptable and keeps the promotion train rolling. Like someone else said though, it's too early in season to really be getting upset about dropping points. Loads to play for. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst I can understand where you're coming from, the entitled idiots amongst our support who feel we've got some sort of right to be swatting everyone aside with ease form a surprisingly low number. Most of us realise that we're down here for a reason and that it's going to take a hell of a lot of hard work to get back up again. FWIW, I hope Stirling Albion have a good season, although not against us obviously. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 Surely if you are going to type loads on these sorts of things you try to make it subtle? I don't expect to be presented by a wall of text that's an obvious and poor attempt at "fishing" from the first sentence? Time il never get back. Diddy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quentin Taranbino Posted August 20, 2023 Author Share Posted August 20, 2023 To be fair, there is loads of good Falkirk fans. You seem to be a well run club and I'm sure this season will be the one you finally get promoted back to the Championship. Talking of idiots amongst our support, wait until you experience our young team on Tuesday. Hilariously cringey 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
