    Peanut sacked at Falkirk. Lots of chat on here that he was to take over from McInnes. Thank **** he didn't. Falkirk (horrible club) are a shambles top to bottom but he really did make a **** of it.

    Falkirk are a basket case of a club nowadays. They should really be looking to get John Hughes in running the show again. He had them about as good as they were going to get. They played some decent football for a smaller club. They have went downhill since he left.

    It’s the likes of Falkirk and Partick that lend credence to a bigger top flight league. Of course there will be logistical and sponsor issues with going to a 16 team league.

    The league this year is probably the best supported league for a while with all “the big teams” there. But this would be augmented by the likes of Partick, Falkirk, Ayr, Dunfermline.

    Dunfermile definitely, Raith Rovers as well but Falirk? Nah.

    Back in Brockville days yes but the move to the ridiculous half stadium in Grangemouth buggered all that.

    That pub I used to have to walk bloody ages to get to made the Alamo seem luxurious.

    Former Aberdeen youngster Ethan Ross has been named the cinch Championship Player of the Month for November after his impressive run of form at Raith Rovers.

    A propos Falkirk, today's Scotsman reveals the 3000 RPM revolving door at Whatever Brockville's Called These Days Stadium, has seen a huge ex-Dons influence on their recent history. The Smith referred to is May '91's havering, stuttering Ibrox bottle merchant:

    "Policy – no youth academy and transfers only. Attempts to re-instate a model, of sorts, are ongoing but it will take years to re-establish.
    But it is Smith’s other influence – of loyalty and perseverance in management that is missed most at Falkirk – now a hiring and firing club, dismissing five in four years. With each new broom comes sweeping changes, and the following clear-out is never quite replenished to previous levels.
    Since Houston’s departure just 50 months ago, Falkirk have had four permanent managerial appointments, two interim spells and a global pandemic.
    Paul Sheerin’ s reign of 191 days was 1011 days less than Houston’s and still considerably shorter than Ray Mckinnon’s 443 and Paul Hartley' s 329. the co-management experiment of former players David McCracken and Lee Miller lasted less than 18 months and included the six-month suspension of the game. The average tenure as Bairns boss is five days more than a year – inclusive of pandemic-related shutdowns."

    Joe Shaughnessy scores for St Perth v Hibsit.

    Charlie Cooke goal (probably) for Race County v TMSTID.
