[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

Robbo still sussing out but given it is Falkirk then I would suggest that this may be his favoured 1st X1 at the present time ?

Not sure as no Warren - take it he's injured?

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

"At the present time" - DOH

[Caley Braveheart]

[Caley Braveheart]

mmm

0 - 2 Falkirk

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

Now lets really see what we are made of ?

[Biggin]

Not looking good 55% possession but only 2 attempts on goal 1 on target comparison Falkirk 5 attempts 3 on target (2 Goals)  looks like it is going to be a long hard season

New keeper same story.....

[Caley Braveheart]

Alex Cooper on

Riccardo Calder off

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

Early Days - Lets just hope that we are learning and adjusting. Far too early to judge.

0 goals from open play in competitive games. That has to be a concern going into the season.   I'm sure we can trot out the usual excuses  e.g. the league cup group stage is a bit of a glorified friendly, the team is gelling etc. but we need to see more improvement asap it it's going to be a long hard season.

Yes, but from 2 corners and a free kick.  Not from open play.

[Council Juice]

Not going to read to much into this. Not even August yet, lots of new faces and against a more settled team who will undoubtedly be challenging for promotion. 

I take it we've signed Alex Cooper then?

Yep, that's what I was alluding to.

Batten down the hatches, it's going to be a stormy old season and we'll be playing against the wind in every game. Early days...but.

Never looked like threatening Falkirk today, same old familiar shape and tactics. Very poor team of strangers beaten by a much better much more organised unit. Early days yes, but same old story to come 

[Renegade]

Long ball tactics in windy conditions are seldom a recipe for success.  Oakley looked decent when he came on but I thought Zschusschen was really poor.  Polworth also had a game to forget.  Seedorf had another good performance though.

Looks like we are effectively out of this tournament already. Looking at the other tables it's hard to see how we could end up as one of the best runners up - even assuming we manage 2nd place.

 

[MuirtownJaggy]

Seedorf & Oakley when he came on continued to look good. Robbos post match interview I thought was spot on....... lack of desire throughout the team. He singled out Polworth & Mulraney as players who need to UP their game !!!!!!! Seedorf, Oakley and Elsdon I thought had a good game.

Maybe if he selected Mulraney he'd be able to do that.   Or are today's team listings wrong?
