Falkirk could bring a very large support to Palmerston on the back of their excellent victory over Ayr Utd. Surprisingly, Falkirk and Dumfries are pretty equal in terms of population, with Dumfries being somewhat larger. Why they have such a good support is probably due to them being in the upper echelons of Scottish football more than Queens.
Their supportrrs probably have a greater understanding of what is required of running a football club and therefore greater sympathy for those with the purse strings.
Regardless of the rights and wrongs of supporting a club, people in this part of the world need to park their hostilities and give their home club a chance again. Good God it was only in 2008 that we were in the Scottish Cup Final and there was a massive feel goo factor then.
We have an excellent manager, the club is run well and there is no huge debt, unfortunately we don't have an industrial base any more, but we need to talk up the positives.
The standard of football on show blows hot and cold at the moment, but let's get out there and enjoy Saturdays game against one of Scotland's sleeping giants.
