I find that hard to believe tbh I thought they've been well supported this season?

Falkirk fans think they're 500 unsold as of this morning.

Back of the fag packet?
7500
-2000 United
-500 unsold
= 5000 home fans

As I say I don't know the exact capacities so the figures are estimated except for the number unsold as that's coming from Falkirk fan posts on social media

Oh yeah,sorry I didn't mean I dont believe what you're saying. Perhaps I should have said I find it hard to understand

Haha no worries bud.

Those capacity figures are probably a bit out too. But it looks like the maximum home attendance won't be more than 5500, think our away fans will be making plenty noise.

Probably pinned up in the Falkirk dressing room already too

Don't understand it, folk desperate to be in the know, there's a reason teamsheets aren't produced the day before.

Just seen, someone posted their XI on (B)eastfootball and someone else said you're only 1 player out and corrected them.

Yeah I saw it too, honestly dont get people but tbf it's a sorry bunch of cunts on there at the best of times.

Im going to avoid posting during the game tonight as I have let emotions get the better of me on the boards lately. I'll probably do my match assessment in the morning after I've either climbed back down from cloud nine or cried myself to sleep.

Just fucking win United please! Don't care how just win!

I heard the Samaritans looked into an Eastfootball match thread once, then tried to phone themselves.

redford_must_score · 06/3/2026 6:08 pm

With Fatah suspended tonight this could be a real opportunity for Dolcek. Lineup coming shortly.

Trapanovski Sapsford and Haddie#2 🙁

Would have liked to have seen us bring Stirton back to give us some legs on the bench when Watters is inevitably shite and we have potential 120 mins of football to play.

RogerTheAlien · 06/3/2026 6:42 pm

The nerves have kicked in big time now lads. Please just fucking do this!!

We’ve played it most of the season 3-4-3 mate, it wouldn’t be any surprise to Mcglynn.

All the more reason to mix it up a bit tbh, but we know that wasn't gonna happen

David_Blunkett · 06/3/2026 7:32 pm

Formation might not have been a surprise, but the personnel could be, thus giving him a plan....

"That big cunt at the back fannies about on the ball, pressure him, that other big cunt waits for the ball to come to him and doesn't attack it, the other wee cunt in the back three, we'll just outjump him.

Stand off that dumpling playing CF he'll fall over his own feet, and let Ferry whip in as many balls as you like, no-one reads them or makes a run!"

Hopefully the above is a case of 'Many a true word is said in jest' take the handbrake off Jim, let them play.

We really were spoiled with great goalkeepers during the Houston/Levein era weren't we?

Seen some amount of shite in the years since.

David_Blunkett · 06/3/2026 8:11 pm

Play a guy who had a great game in midfield the other night RCB.

He's been sleeping at both goals

redford_must_score · 06/3/2026 8:31 pm

Our fans are booing this performance and it's not even half time.

Another example of how uncoached we are.

Edit....well well, still in this at 2-1

An absolute abomination of a performance.

Yet, we now have a lifeline.

Eskesen coming on for the awful Trapanovski a blessing in disguise. Play the guy in his position (No.10) and he's actually an effective player.

Absolutely, and we've ended up being lucky that Trapanovski got injured.
Has to be released surely.

Watters actually did well for the goal, showed tenacity out on the left.

Think this sums up Goodwin's season down 2 goals playing 343. Only changed to 3 in midfield, 2 up front when forced. This turgid shite and a lack of bravery in big games is why Goodwin will never progress beyond Scottish football, or some lower league shite elsewhere.

Finn Seemann · 06/3/2026 9:53 pm

That first 20 minutes is inexcusable. I’m now at the point that I think we need to take the gamble on letting the septic hire someone else.

God help us

Ignoring absolutely everything in the first 40 minutes, tactics, formation etc we did no bad to get into that, Sapsford has to score at least one of them chances and what the fuck was wrong with that challenge that sent Russell through on goal?

Maybe it's clutching at straws but when it's such fine margins you can't give teams a starty, and that's down to how we set up.
