Keep us posted. It's a pity that Celtic game is on a Sunday, that game is on the 6th and Bahrain is on the 12th. Those old legs could do with an extra day of rest.

as a Waggonist ... I agree , I reckon the other 4 games are more important for Falkirk as they are the sort of games we need to win to avoid relegation , Falkirk could let Latas travel early and let him have a rest ahead of the play-offs by dropping him for the Celtic game - a game Falkirk will probably lose

but ... as a Falkirk supporter I'm tied between the thought of a Latapy inspired Falkirk possibly winning against Celtic or letting him go and improving our chances of seeing a Falkirk player take the field (and score

) on the World's stage .

Can Leo Beenhakker request he doesn't play on the Sunday ?

Todays game finished Falkirk 1 Dundee Utd 3 (Collin Samuel got the third for Utd)

Falkirk were very , very poor today and Latapy looked uninterested , he lasted the 90 minutes but I actually thought he was going to be subbed late on , Samuel looked slightly overweight and was matched for pace by our 40 year old manager John Hughes - he did score but United were well on top at that stage and John Hughes had stayed on despite an injury as all our subs had been used ,

a day to forget .

I feel latas have to skip that Inverness game...or come off the bench to add a spark if Falkirk in trouble. Too many games in too close proximity that week for a 37 year old.

So wait nah...Falkirk have their coach playing too? No offence, but a side with a 40 year old controlling the defence and a 37 year old running the offence should not be able to compete with the best that Scotland have to offer...

Speaks volumes as to how much they have achieved already with such limited resources !!

All massive who will be there on the 12th...in lieu of the tired 'ole,ole' that was ringing about the stadium against the mexicans of all people, try to encourage your crew to sing this refrain for latas on the 12th. All children of the 80's and beyond know the tune.Me and my partners is be chanting it whenever he on the attack. But tha's only about 20 odd voices...

So practice at home, spread the word and leh we 'vibes it up' like they do in Britian where it have songs for virtually evry player.

"EEE ooo a...check d danger...oooo....LATAPY inna d area "

OK , firstly on the 40 year old in defence - That was 'Yogi' Hughes' first game for us this season - our Captain - Craig Ireland was suspended , we have other players that should propably have come in but Hughes decided to pick himself - I reckon that will be his last game . Incidently he set the record for the oldest outfield player in SPL history .

Secondly , Since I posted about Latas yesterday my Old Man (Ned Snr.) has told me that he read that Latapy has stated he will hold back from any 50/50 challenges before the play-offs

I don't know if this is true !

Inverness 0 - 2 Falkirk 70 mins

Latapy has just been subbed after setting up both goals. He ran the 1st half but Falkirk have been under the cosh since the restart and scored from a rare break. Replaced by a youngster - 36-year old John O'Neil

Born-again Bairn · « **Reply #14 on:** October 26, 2005, 02:43:51 PM »

Finished 0 - 3 to Falkirk

The third goal scored by Moutinho - a Portuguese fella who was persuaded to come to Falkirk by a certain Mr R. Latapy

Nice, Falkirk won 3 - 0 and Latapy hand a hand in two of the goals and didn't play the whole game.

Falkirk 1 - 1 Livingston

Falkirk keep up the 'good game bad game' scenario with a draw against the bottom club. Latapy gained the sponsors man of the match award but this time, I'm afraid, I think it was more out of habit than for the performance. Latas did nothing wrong (and played the full 90 minutes) but didn't 'shine' if you get my meaning.

However, other results see us 1 point further off the bottom and not losing ground on the teams immediately above us. Next game: Celtic at home. This is a biggy

Don't worry, Latapy and the rest of the squad will lift their game. You guys will not get demoted this season, just consolidate and you'll be pressing for a top 5 next season.

Falkirk 0 - 3 Celtic

Hard to take anything positive out of this game, especially as we have given Celtic 2 hard games at their hovel earlier on. As has been posted Latapy was taken off after 70 mins.

For the last season and a half the guy has been a revelation for us. We return him safe and sound for your final qualification matches with all our best wishes.
