Falkirk v Montrose


Recommended Posts

I’d freshen things up as it did end up being a bit of a battle yesterday and I’d imagine there’ll be a few casualties anyway.

That’s not to say I’m not worried about Montrose who always give us a game at home. On decent form as well only losing 2 out of the last 11 games.

I wouldn’t be surprised if this ends up a draw to be honest. Just need to keep ticking the games off.

Yep, it's a cliche but its never an easy game against Montrose and I'd love to win this one comfortably for a change (like the recent home game v Cove). They will be well organised and clinical when given chances as usual. First goal is important, can't give them something to hold onto.

The Hamilton win probably took a lot out of the players and I think he may well freshen things up a bit, as long as its not Edinburgh away levels of freshening up. All being well injury wise I'd start with the same 11 and tell them I was bringing 4 subs on early at 55-60 minutes, the other sub with 10 to go.

2 tough games in a few days for us isn't easy but we have had both at home, Montrose also have the same 2 games but are away one of them and their players will have been working so no excuses on that front.

A draw would'nt be a disaster but it would be nice to keep applying the pressure on Rankin and Hamilton. A 14 point gap with 12 games to go would mean they would need to catch up more than a point every single one of the 12 games left.

Looking forward to it (again).

I think I'd make one or two tweaks to the team for this one. Not Edinburgh City style madness but maybe giving Ross and Tait a start purely to give others a rest before another game on Saturday. 

Tait for Nesbitt for me, unlikely as John loves Nesbitt.

Another big effort to get a win and go 14 points clear. Get it done asap. 
 

Is being regarded as a free hit by Stewart Petrie. Will be fielding a team with an eye on what on paper at least is a more winnable game on Saturday.

We do not take the foot off the gas. Montrose gave us a tough game at home earlier in the season. We do not let up, we do not make wholesale changes. We go for the win.

Yep. Tough game expected but I am a fan of getting the PT teams midweek. 

Hopefully get a decent crowd so that there's no comedown from Saturday but McGlynn had his scare with complacency v Edinburgh. Best team out. Subs for impact.

Montrose have probably given us our toughest games of the season, reckon Tuesday will be no different. Our record against part-time teams midweek must be pretty good so hopefully that continues.

Would honestly be happy with a point here, was eyeing the double header and thinking 4 points would be just dandy and we've already chalked 3 up from the Hamilton game.

As others have said despite our brilliant form, maybe 2-3 changes required just to freshen things up a bit without going crazy? There's really no one obvious to drop though. 

Hopefully a large chunk of the 5,455 Falkirk fans who turned out yesterday come along again and back the team

And because Tait doesn’t play that position. If you are leaving out Nesbitt then I would play either Alfie or Ross. Personally I would leave Nesbitt where he is.
