Falkirk don't have any Scottish League triumphs, but then i support my local team, im not a glory hunter, i go for the thrill of the game and don't expect to win the league.
You may have seen successes throughout the years from the comfort of your sofa, but i was there watching Falkirk, freezing my ass off as we beat teams when all they were expected to do was turn up and kick off before going home with nil point! I've also been there when we've been pummelled, shook my head, cursed and shrugged, but i always went back the next week.
And that my "friend" is something you will never feel, that buzz when you give someone a doing in front of their fans against all the odds, can you imagine what its like for a small team, with limited resources, never mind money, to get close to winning a cup after taking down Celtic on their patch? Oh, i forgot, they beat you in your cup...
You "expect" to win every week, if you dont - then you buy more players at christmas / the summer then try again.
If we get it wrong we cant and relegation is a possibility.
What's the big achievement with all that money you have at your club eh?
Your not a better club than any other, you just have more cash.
Bravo.
Away and support Man City... Live a little.

You actually sound like a Man City fan...all bitter and twisted at other, more successful teams around you...looking for the results of other teams before their own, as their only source of enjoyment...we can still help you if you want...

If that's ok with you, that is.

Now, you know that you are a Man Utd fan...don't you know that that was really your sofa that you were watching the match from. Only fans of other teams actually "go" to a match...
