There's a lot of statistics that point to us getting beat tbh but hopefully the only one that ultimately matters will go our way 🤞

Starting to feel less positive now the day has arrived. Too many unknown quantities in our team right now. Hopefully they find form and get us off to a winning start. I'm certainly more hopeful than expectant though.

Although his form has been a bit indifferent in the euro ties, Ferry’s absence today is still a massive blow.

F*ck sake,just looked at the team and didn't notice he was missing as well. Our injury list is a f*cking pisstake! All this " hardest pre-season ever" b*llocks needs to stop, cos it ain't working. Our bench is all kids. No faith whatsoever this afternoon now.

Ferry's suspended for the first two games, culmination of too many needless bookings last season. Dolcek left wing back I think, interesting to see how he gets on. Prob as good a starting line up as we could put together in circumstances, though I'd have started Stirton. but to not have one experienced player on your bench first game of the season is bit of an indictment of our situation, given Goodwin doesn't seem overly keen on using them. I don't have a problem with having a bench full of kids if they are good enough and you are looking to use them, but this is just dictated to by injuries.

Other than possibly Stirton I dont see anyone on that bench who can change the game for us if it's not going our way,or which is very likely, we pick up yet more injuries 🤕🫤

I'd forgotten about his suspension tbh

First quarter of the game gone. No shots from us. Falkirk look a much better outfit so far.

Get in. Much improved 2nd quarter.
