latapythelegend Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 Most people I know have opted for the terrace so must be about sold out now. Thats not including the ultras that will take up 100-150 of that. We should hopefully come close to a sellout. Looking forward to it. Not played a league game there in a long time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hartleys18/19Army Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 Hopefully not any doubt of thus game going ahead with the incoming storm. Met office changes constantly with what they expect to happen in Stirling area. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a season ticket for the stand but for most games they've allowed us to go in the terracing. This one will be the first time sitting since the first home game of the season. It's a different experience and I love it. Just wish they'd covered them as that would be even better both for atmosphere and not being exposed to the elements. Hope the weather stays OK anyway for those brave enough. Really looking forward to this. Website says season ticket holders won’t be given access to the terracing. presumably you could by a ticket 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reggie Perrin Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 (edited) Really looking forward to this game. Forthbank a great wee ground and the likelihood of dismantling (again) the supposed heirs to 1970 Brazil is most appealing.

Weather forecast changing daily from sunshine to heavy rain so hopefully those that have opted for the terrace will get a dry couple of hours. 534 tickets now sold for the away stand, section K (middle section) now sold out. Surprised the club still haven't pushed this yet (just checked on twitter). Expect they will do so today at some point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First example of playing a team who have had a look at us so I expect things to tighten up thus quarter. I will be significantly more impressed with any away from home pumpings from here on out tbh. I think this team can go to the trenches too tho. We showed a bit of that in our run last season and the key guys who are starters now who weren't last season.... Yeats, Lang, Spencer, Miller, McIver and Agyeman... none of them are shrinking violets. Agyeman and Miller in particular are in the most competed for shirts in our squad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its going to be really interesting to see how teams set up against us this quarter now they've seen us, especially those that got a pumping. Early goals are going to be crucial this quarters fixtures. This will be a much tougher game than last time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranaldo Bairn Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 It will, but we have a good record at FB, barring the George Clyde refereeing masterclass I previously mentioned. I think we'll sneak it, but it's gonna be dull as f**k from now on if every game is an attritional battle against packed defences. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we'll sneak it, but it's gonna be dull as f**k from now on if every game is an attritional battle against packed defences. We did see a little of that in Q1 and it was very noticeable that Miller in particular swept the ball around the front line first time rather than control, check back, stand and wait, go backwards. When he got injured we were still good, but less direct and with less pace of play. I hope he has just come back at the right time here. He also is very good at timing his appearances at the back post. I suspect McIvers drop off in goals will be somewhat related to that. Eta The other obvious point is Miller is better on the left than Agyeman, who moves infield and is better in there than anyone else we have, which also helps McIver in bit getting isolated.

Forthbank is indeed one of the best pitches around, we are so lucky to have a Groundsman/Groundsteam that keep it to a fantastic standard. We've had awards for the pitch and it has been voted best pitch in Scotland previously. HOWEVER....we are subjected to the elements and if it's ice/frost then we do have a historical issue with the Morrison's End goal mouth not thawing enough due to the angle of the sun and the surrounding wall, so if the forecast is snow and ice then it could be in doubt (I don't do weather forecasts so have no idea). I really hope the game goes ahead, it's occasions like this that were missed when we were in League 2 for all those years. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Game was live on BBC, we usually take between 1,000-1,500 to Alloa. Reckon for the novelty of not going to Stirling for ages coupled with our good form we will have over 1,500 there and close to selling out 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

headthebaw Posted October 18, 2023 Share Posted October 18, 2023 Falkirk are strong favourites given their status as a full-time team and I think most Binos would be happy to take a point. But you just never know. Id prefer to see Moore start as he’ll give us an attacking option on the right and a good crosser of the ball. Set pieces may be our best chance of finding the net. Predict 5-1 to the home side 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bairn88 Posted October 18, 2023 Share Posted October 18, 2023 Forecast taken a turn towards the biblical for the following 3 days. Pitch will need to have some serious drainage to avoid a cancellation 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
