Falkirk, the seasoned Bourbons of Scottish football, were established back in 1876. This historic club graces the pitch at the Falkirk Stadium, their home turf in the true blue heartlands of Scotland.
The club decks out a thirty-one strong player squad, most of whom seem to be situated comfortably within their prime, sporting a mean age of 26. Not too callow that they might be construed as 'green', yet not so grizzled that time could be suspected of pilfering their pace and agility.
Present season has found Falkirk embroiled in a sporting love triangle of three distinct competitions. These include, the Premiership, wherein they secure a spot, albeit a middling one, in the 7th place, the League Cup, where they pushed their way through to the Second Round, and of course, the eminent Scottish Cup, where their journey was truncated at the Fourth Round. Nonetheless, given the strapping and spirited squad at their disposal, one could dare to foster hopeful expectations for Falkirk's performances in future contests.
