PSG are a good side, can’t see Arsenal tuning this round (which is pleasing).

PSG v Barca has the potential to be an unbelievable final. I don’t think it would be one where it didn’t live up to the hype.

Went to see PSG Vs Nantes in Nov 2021 at the Parc Des Princes - the whole stand of Ultras were phenomenal. Best atmosphere (purely fan generated) I’ve been in I think.

Arsenal are still in the tie, they will get more room in Paris. If they get the first goal in the 2nd leg game on. PSGs pressing is superb and their movement is a joy to watch. Arsenal were too predictable this evening they will need to be much quicker in transition.

In europe it's like you can't make any contact. Once the penalty is given its a red card.

[hibsbollah]

In europe it's like you can't make any contact. Once the penalty is given its a red card.

The referee has the power to assess whether the contact is sufficient though, it wasnt much more than a brush and Hojlunds legs instaneously disappear under him. I also thought there was a handball at least once in the buildup, which the defender was clearly calling the refs attention to, and a replay backed that up.

[He's here!]

They're a different beast in Europe with their style of play clearly far more effective than it is in the league. Think I read they're the only unbeaten team across all three competitions.

Yeah there was, think because Garnacho never directly assisted the goal they wouldn't give it. Massive decision in such a big game. Thought Bilbao started the better and could have been 2 up before united scored.

[Tambo]

Falkirk surely can't blow the title on the last day, last chance also for Raith to get into the playoffs.

[we are hibs]

Cannot see anything other than a Falkirk win. Hamilton are poor and will obviously be deflated.

Hard to believe Falkirk were seconds away from winning the league with several games to spare at Ayr three weeks ago. And here they are desperately scrapping to get over the line in their last game.

[Paulie Walnuts]

This would probably be the biggest bottle job since… well I think we all know since when. :agree:

[B.H.F.C]

Hoping Falkirk bottle it. Will then need to hope Falkirk sort themselves out to beat Hearts in the playoffs.

[Bobby's Cinema]

Was it not into double figures a matter of weeks ago between Falkirk and 2nd place. Quite a collapse.

It was a weird interview from McGlynn I seen during the week where he was talking about expectations when they go up and top six and europe. When most managers might have said we're not even thinking about that just the three points.

Would rather Falkirk getting 6k fans in their 3 stands for the SPL than Livingston having 2k fans over 4 stands. Both plastic pitches so no difference there, and that’ll be gone after next season anyway.

Hopefully next season we can get Dunfermline or Raith but they need to earn it on the park like Falkirk have.

Are you having a laugh, there is no way they will have 6k fans, you will be lucky if their home attendance is 1500 half way through the season, they are a team that is lower league that gets promoted to the top tier occasionally and as soon as they struggle their attendance dwindles to the same as Livingston or Hamilton.

Even when struggling at times in the last few seasons they always seemed to get at least 4000 at home games . Next season .

Give me Falkirk in the Premiership every time over Livingston. Good club with a good fanbase. Not sure where this weird hatred has come from? Because they beat us in a few big games?
Hopefully Dunfermline up next season.

Disgusting scenes. like a throwback to the last decade when certain fanbases disgraced Scottish football :greengrin

OK it's a 3 sided stadium, but at least it's a club capable of filling the 3 stands they do have with their own fans. Hopefully they can fill in that 4th side with a 2,000 capacity stand or something to complete the ground. As for the pitch, I've watched a few Falkirk games on the telly this season and compared to Killie or Livvi it's clearly of a higher standard, the ball actually seems to run and bounce reasonably normally.

Whatever the case they will bring more to the top league than the likes of Livvi, who for everybody's sake we have to hope stay down ... non existent away support and a pitch that shouldn't be allowed in the Lowland league, never mind the premiership. Ayr United would be a nice addition .... or Partick Thistle, though they have a pile of work to do to make Firhill acceptable, especially with that mound of dirt behind one goal that is just an absolute embarrassment.

Somebody said they would like to see the back of Ross County. OK they might have a tiny away support, but they do have a grass pitch, a 4 sided stadium, a home support at least double that of Livvi and having done it myself, one of the better away trips in Scottish football. There's plenty of teams I would rather not see in the premiership than well run Ross County.

Totally agree

Might put some money on Falkirk getting relegated next season

St Johnstone are down and I think whoever ends up in the playoffs from the premier will probably win . Looking forward to enjoying a few Hibs wins against Falkirk and seeing them relegated.:greengrin

Are you having a laugh, there is no way they will have 6k fans, you will be lucky if their home attendance is 1500 half way through the season, they are a team that is lower league that gets promoted to the top tier occasionally and as soon as they struggle their attendance dwindles to the same as Livingston or Hamilton.

1500? I'm not huge fan of Falkirk but you're just making stuff up here. They've got a decent support and always have done.

From a respected Bairn…

“In the main pish, main reason was rules requiring a 10k stadium dropped to 8k, so there no need to build when temp one would do when needed. Nae refinery now so defo no issue with blast zone now.”

In the main, he's talking pish. Yes, now they can build as the situation has changed over the years & of course Grangemouth has stopped operating as a refinery. But the blast zone was 100% an issue and a reason they didn't build the 4th stand originally or before now.

Here's mention of 'the blast zone' in a BBC interview with ex-Falkirk chairman http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/f/falkirk/4387279.stm

Is it just me, or does what suddenly feel like every other team in our league now do the Carnival De Paris celebration these days? Noticed Aberdeen doing it, Falkirk, Hearts etc…felt like it was just ours for a long time, but might just be me!

[JimBHibees]

I can’t help but like John McGlynn and I think he’s a superb manager.

There, I’ve said it.

Would assume Hearts should be looking at him

[JimBHibees]

TBF it is still the 1970s in Falkirk.

As they used to say on the comedy Soap, "confused? You will be."

Looks like the EFL championship will be interesting today.

A Hibs, St.Mirren and Ross County treble would be nice
