Not going to lie, recording
@Falkirkdaft
tonight was a struggle. But Hilly was the the first to watch it every week & heโd want it done. Hope weโve done him proud.
Tonightโs episode is dedicated to him & weโve donated free sponsorship to
@strathcarron1
Loved his family, his mates, his clothes, his trainers, his club & even though the song says differently, he knew we loved him too โ๐ผ
Known Hilly for 25 yrs but spoke/text almost every day over the last 3 or 4 years. Tough day today
๐ต Youโll never know oh how much we loved you
I know we are all in a positive mood just now but the overreaction of those stewards is brutal. Wee lads wanting to celebrate with the players & they are getting held back? Fuck off.
Feel like in all the excitement, this absolute screamer has been overlooked and not received the attention it deserves.
๐ Enjoy

Stayed & fought when it wasnโt going so well and probably appreciates more than others how good the club is now on & off the pitch. Well in mate ๐
An INVINCIBLE day & year for FFC and I am so glad I was able to be there with family & friends, sandwiched in between 2 visits to my INVINCIBLE mum ๐๐ซถ๐ผ
Cheers to absolutely every single person who caught up with me today at the stadium or tonight, youโre all legends ๐
Thanks to Kieran & Josh at the club for letting me do this today for our friend & fellow Bairn, Mark Scott, who sadly passed away late Sunday night. Till we meet again on the terrace in the sky mate ๐ข๐
I was emotional last night & still am this morning. That was a PERFECT day & my best as a Bairn so far.
Start to finish with the best people, brilliant trip north on the train, scenes at 4.45 in a Montrose pub when we knew our champions outcome and then out in the high street!๐ฅ
Thanks to everyone for the messages, mum is being looked after well at FVH. A long day but looking forward to seeing her again in the morning. Will pass on the well wishes โค๏ธ
Massive shout out to

for keeping the show on the road at BTW. Sounds like he smashed it ๐๐ป
Mums had a good night & morning and told me to get to the game so bring on Trophy Day at the stadium ๐
Passed on everyoneโs well wishes & Iโll see her after the game later ๐

After 17 years they are finally restored & looking amazing. These are my Dad & Iโs seats from the last 3/4 of the 02/03 season at Brockville. Started on the terrace that season as usual & my Dad said he wanted to see some final games before it fell. So we got ST seats in the.....
Did not pre plan my diary well at all today after last night. Must have been well after 2.30am before I got to bed having watched the game back, all the videos on here & liking what felt like 1000 Bairns tweets & posts on Faceache ๐๐ด๐ค

Thank you to the board of
@FalkirkFC
who, to a man with the exception of the commercial director, fucked off before they could face any sponsors/supporters. You are not the club, we are, and we are going to take it back. Do the right thing, take off the club tie & bugger off
โ๏ธ Falkirk Football Club is delighted to announce that Callumn Morrison has signed a contract extension, which will see the forward remain at the club until 2026.

@FalkirkFC
No mention of his own personal failures I see? Easier to blame the supporters I suppose. Here are his many failures summarised in case you want to edit this press release.
He would have loved that yesterday. Place was rocking, together as one & his pals together to remember him one year on. He loved listening to the podcast each week & was the first to say โwhere is it Rosscoโ if it wasnโt out at the usual time ๐. You always will be Fawkirk Daft๐
Tomorrow 30+ Bairns will come together to remember our pal

๐ My legend of a Dad would have been 89 today but he did see his 88th last year surrounded by his family on a sunny day like today โ๏ธ
Happy Heavenly Birthday Dad, will have a drink for you later on ๐ฅ
Everyone who interacts on here or FaceAche, watches on YouTube or listens via the podcasts make it what it is. Without that, itโs just 2 old pals talking about their team & the nonsense that goes along with it ๐
Happy New Year troops! Raise a glass to those no longer here ๐ฅ
๐ Happy New Year when it comes lads & lassies and letโs hope 2024 is a big year for us all.
Thanks to you all for interacting, listening to our nonsense & also to

for sponsoring ๐๐ป
Mon the Fawkirk Bairns & as always, Expect the Unexpected ๐
Ross & John ๐ฅ
The game & atmosphere was out of this world and then on the pitch at FT. Stirling on the way home was class and to top off the night spending it with fellow Bairns, players, management & staff was SURREAL in BTW. Carnage ๐๐
Tough day, as expected, but a huge thank you to everyone who came along today, whether family or friends. It was a huge turnout for my Dad ๐
A fantastic sum raised for Strathcarron Hospice too ๐๐ป

Lovely touch from FFC earlier for Hilly. Manager, players & staff all out to see him ๐ข. Players walked beside him from one end of the stadium to the other. So many Bairns out to see him too, one final time at the stadium with each other. See you again Hilly ๐โ๐ผ
Your pal
Rossco
There was a moment, just after the final whistle yesterday, when the team approached the fans and there was this huge roar that was simply amazing. A โwe can do thisโ moment. Love this club, our club

That wee lads smile right there is why we wanted the captain to give away an armband at the end of every game as part of our sponsorship ๐

But, but, but artificial pitches are bad ๐
Some are obviously but just with grass pitches, if they are top spec & well looked after then thatโs what counts. If they arenโt, this is the outcome.
A grass pitch shouldnโt be the criteria. A โwell maintained pitchโ should be.
MATCH POSTPONED!
Following this afternoonโs second scheduled pitch inspection the match referee has deemed the pitch at The Scot Foam Stadium unplayable after heavy rain this afternoon and tonightโs match has been postponed.
This match will now be played next Wednesday, 17th
But we were told in January that we have a history of bottling it? ๐
Get your tickets bought for Stirling (A) asap & pack the place ๐ฅ๐จ
QOS & Montroseโฆ.we are coming to your towns soon, stock up ๐ป
Gutted. Absolutely gutted ๐ข. Fair play to the 500 or so fans who were able to remain for a good hour after the final whistle but those in suits with blood on their hands did not show, unsurprisingly. We want our club back.
Reflecting on last night, you just sense something is building for once, finally.ย
The players, the management, the fans, that atmosphere & the connection is growing game by game.ย You just feel it.
Tomorrow 30+ Bairns will come together to remember our pal

McGlynnโs recruitment has been on point absolutely and in conjunction with 4500 home fans every game, 1000 paying monthly into

Itโs OUR club now ๐

@ProducerMac
says they owe it all to John McGlynn.
What I took from todayโฆPars are nothing great, they fed on our scraps & poor passes. Burrell was superb, Oliver, McCann, Donaldson & Nesbitt too. Bairns support was outstanding pre match in the Lizzie & during the game. Shout out to the Sheffield United boys too. We are Fawkirk
Great night last night at the FFC recognition night. Brilliant to meet Layton personally & glad heโs had a great time with our club. Letโs finish this season off in style ๐๐ป
Merry Christmas to family & friends ๐ ๐ผ
As always, raising a glass & a smile to those no longer with us, this one is for you Dad๐บ

No football this weekend, in person anyway, as travelling to Derbyshire later today to visit family down south and to scatter my dads ashes in one of his favourite places. Final journey Dad ๐
Absolutely brilliant
