I heard Williams is definitely out but may be back for the cup game…. Where to be honest, I wouldn’t play him anyway on that plastic park. Give him another week to get fit.

Ideally at present that’s how I’d go if they are all fit. Keep Vogts away from the first 11. good to see the tickets selling well today, look likes there’s chunks of the ground sold out now. Will be a great atmosphere

A number of folk I know have already booked flights to Basel for the Freiburg game. I’m not ballsy enough for that. I’m hanging off until Thursday night. I think It’d have to be a flight to Zurich as well as the Basel ones seem to be sold out already

Ticket sales look slower than the HB game, I’m sure at this point before HB they were starting to offer the south stand. hopefully it’ll pick up today.

I have noticed a number of people bringing cushions with them which I can totally understand but i find it unacceptable they’d have to do this. the bucket seats in the wings were more comfortable than the sharp plastic seats we need to ensure at the moment. I’d honest prefer sitting on a bench than the things we have.

Ive liked the look of Mcallister every time ive seen him, i see more potential in him than Booth if im honest. Its a difficult one though, especially for the boy, he needs to play adult football to improve and if hes just stuck on our bench that wont happen.

Taking a positive out of yesterday apart from a point and a clean sheet (happy with this tbh) I really liked Alfred’s post match chat, absolutely no bull sh1t manager talk, I totally agreed with everything he said and it was refreshing to hear. Each week I like this guy a little better.

Went for Knight-lebel , for his first game I thought he looked very good. Really comfortable and made a couple of important blocks as did Reich. Moorman looked good as well, I hope to god he’s not injured.

Considering our exertions over the past few weeks and injuries I’m happy with the point. positives - I think our defence and keeper are excellent. All the new guys in this area have shown some real potential. everwhere else - room for improvement

Johnny man…. What a chance. we’ve definitely had the clearest chances but it’s been a horrible watch… mostly due to Falkirk.

This is a horrible game. We’ve seen this movie before

That does not look good for sparrow.

Big Moorman taking a risk there. Seen them as red before particularly with our terrible referees

Definitely one of the subs I felt was needed.

Frustrating game so far. Falkirk have went from trying to play football last season to niggling fouls and shirt pulling this season. should probably be ahead as we are the only side looking to create anything. A couple of the players are not good enough…. I’ll refrain from saying who in case of bullying calls.

Exactly this…… I remember saying the same thing about Andy Roddie…. And that all ended up …… oh wait a minute 🫢 im just joking… I’ll give him time-ish

I’m still not seeing it either. I might be a bit blinkered that i like watching players who look like they are players and have a good style about them. He wanders on the park like Charlie Chaplin. I’ll give him another few weeks and see how he settles, maybe a goal will change things for him… hope it’s today.

I actually like them, I think they bring a great atmosphere and I love the TIFOs ( or attention seeking knobbery lol) I think it’d be a sh1ttier atmosphere without them. I just draw the line at pitch invasions and battering advertising boards. High emosions or not, stay off the fkn park.

Not to put a downer on a good night and 500 top class fans but the 100 that piled onto the park and bust an advertisement board need a boot in the baws. Thats a fine/potential ban coming!! We can’t be acting holier than thou when other certain fans do it when we are doing the same thing.

Outstanding… I didn’t expect it. Playing the biggest side in Finland on a surface worse than the Bothwell Road Pitz. we should have nothing to fear at fir park…. A full house and some players back…. And hopefully no more out injured

My initial feelings were I was a bit sorry for him as he has been handed a sh1tty stick, an almost impossible job considering we’ve lost our best manager, best players, and our most experienced players are all injured and we have a brand new team. to say he’s surprised me is an understatement, he’s excellent in front of the media, probably better than jens and he seems to have had buy in from the players. Even Longelo was hugging him and laughing on Sunday? I’ve not ever seen Manny smile since he arrived at the club. of course I’m sure we’ll have a few dark days but I like the guy. I was worried that he was going to be a Swedish Cathro but he was a bit about him.

Gutting to lose arguably or best performers in Williams and Said for tonight. My hope is we hold on to anything really and be at full strength next week for the return leg. rip an arm off for a draw or a narrow defeat to keep it all alive. fkn Astro!!! Shouldn’t be allowed.

I think Elgin might unfortunately be his level. It’s a sort of Barry Maguire situation. Maguire seemed to also be a great lad and hard worker who hung about for longer than he probably should. Both of them can play but both aren’t at that premier league standard in my view. Love to be proved wrong but that’s nearly 2 years I’ve watched him now.

I get the impression with Ross that he’s a really hard worker and a really good kid to work with. This might be the reason he’s still around the first team and has been tried in about 4 or 5 different positions (none in my view where he has shone) from what I’ve seen in Olly Whyte so far, he’s a better option than Ross. Whyte has played in defence and midfield so far and looks to me a more rounded player. I can’t help but think if we punted Ross out on loan 2 years ago he’d have either came back a better player ….. or would now be plying his trade at Albion Rovers.
