The Bairns v The Pars


Superally

Recommended Posts

Could it be all over after Saturdays match against Falkirk, technically no, but psychologically anything less than a Falkirk win would determine it probably is. And with only five games left after this Saturday it would take a unbelievable change of recent form for both sides for Falkirk to Hold on to the dream. While we dared to dream there could be a trophy celebration this will have to wait for now. Falkirk’s form has fallen off the cliff recently with two wins, two draws and two defeats. In the form table they are sitting 5th after six games. In the league table they remain 5th but Airdrie are flying high and are only 4pts behind and Alloa a further point behind and potentially are in danger of being overtaken. Admittedly they may have distractions elsewhere but its usually the team that hits form the most likely to step up. Last outing between the teams was a 2-0 Pars win at EEP with goals from Breen and Todd behind the biggest crowd of season. There will be another big crowd this weekend but it will be the away end making the most noise leaving the Bairn's and McGlynn greeting. 2-0 Pars win for me, COYP.

Yeah, but SA goes on to say " In the league table they remain 5th "

I'm hoping that that's just him foreseeing the final positions, with Airdrie, Alloa and Edinburgh all taking advantage of a total Falkirk collapse in the run in :-)

We're not playing at home though.  Last time out away from home we put 3 past a decent Montrose side.  The game before that, we won 2-0 at QoS (who have 13 points out of 15 since).

We're also playing a side who have not scored a league goal in the last month.  

Any result is obviously possible, but we've turned up for the big games this season.

Exactly, and 11 points ahead or not, winning this game drives a sword through the heart of their title challenge once and for all, leaving them coughing up blood and gasping for breath, albeit not quite dead yet. This is still a huge game.
