Excellent photies, excellent day in the sun. And nice pun, even if it's in the wrong thread.

Some nervous defending near the end yesterday. Any port in a storm stuff.

Yes. And although most folk seem to hope that Dunfermline go up, I'd rather it was Rovers. There's no reason to fear Dunfermline next year; they'll be just as skint as everybody else.

Am I the only one who saw "bondage exercises" at first glance?

Plus they had their SPL parachute payment, all gone. There's no doubt that they'll need to make big cuts next season. It might be that their "academy" at Stirling Uni will get the chop.

I've just been perusing one of the Bairns fans' forums, and they do NOT rate Mr Pressley very highly at all, it would seem. But maybe more interestingly, there's a very strong rumour that Falkirk are in some very serious financial trouble, and that failure to get promoted this season is going to hit them very, very hard.

You're right to underline Grehan's performance. I forgot to mention it in another thread, but yes his cross for Erskine's header was inch-perfect. First time I've seen us win there. Looking forward to a nice glass or two of Chateau Jaggernaut2 ce soir. 2Whatever cheap plonk is in the hoose.

Agreed about the 2 goals. The team forgot the old adage that your opponents are never more dangerous than when they're 3-0 down with 20 minutes left. Erskine had a great first half, and Rowson never stopped running. We've got a right good player in Campbell. A bit naive once or twice, but also more accomplished than many of the older players at some of what he did. Another good shift by Grehan too, including a great pass for Doolan's goal. Well done to the R&Y army for playing their part too.

Please let us have some close-quarters quality time with Mr. Pressley!

Don't worry about it today; back to league business.

The problem is that once the puns start, they don't stop. People go overboard.

Great to see, except for the result. Found this excellent Gerry Britton goals compilation:

I doubt whether our song is going to be a major problem on the European stage in the next few (dozen) years to come. In fact, it couldn't even be seen to be a problem of any kind for about 99% of our existence these days. It only emerges from hibernation whenever we are pitted against either one of the forces of evil, and (unfortunately) this doesn't come around very often these days.

That would make good sense. A good build-up to the anniversary would also probably see an increase in the number sold.

I'm already looking forward to the start of the new season! (Though I'll be a Nomad for a good part of it.)

How about something like the one in my spanking new avatar?!

Come to think of it, I have several serious debilitating effects from many years of being subjected to PTFC: lack of concentration at work, recurring nightmares, depression, absence of any sense of purpose, increased substance abuse, loss of confidence in social situations (see "drinking yarns" thread for evidence). Now, where's one of those "no win, no fee" crooks lawyers....

Contagious! This one too:

Aw c'mon. At least the stories above are all believable.

Hmm, that's pretty good, though there are a few tops missing. Maybe the most notable recent one is the pink hooped jersey that got such a lot of coverage a couple of years ago.

Many Jags videos can lift the mood, but music first: This: This: And this, for starters:

Gotta laugh at that!

Agreed. No reason why a new sponsor has to mean a complete change of kit.
