Falkirk’s survival hopes are basically out of our own hands now. We are 1/1 favourites to get relegated with the bookmakers and it certainly feels like it after last week’s horrific defeat to Greenock Morton. Two embarrassingly comical goals from the defence’s point of view. The second goal in particular with both defenders running into…

Dunfermline Athletic Preview
It’s derby day tomorrow as we travel over the bridge into Fife to face Dunfermline Athletic. No one really knows why the game is a derby. One idea is that it stems from an argument at Dunfermline ice rink in the 1970s with a Falkirk fan and a Dunfermline fan arguing over the teams. I’m…
