Brockville was sold and demolished, because we couldn’t fit 10,000 empty bucket seats into it. As a result we were denied promotion despite winning it on the pitch. The year after the SPL allowed Inverness in without a quarter of that. A huge part of the soul left the club as a result, the new stadium despite the best efforts is pretty atmosphereless, and until the fourth side is built will remain so.
You can still see the paint on the gable end of the house that overlooked the Hope Street entrance. I now live in England but I still visit the site of Brockville every time I visit family. I followed Falkirk in the late 70's, 80's and early 90's. I've seen a couple of games at the new stadium but all my happy memories are from standing in the choir and the awful smell in the Gents toilets 🤢
Hi Grant, I do go to lower league games as well and hoping to go to see Musselburgh Athletic next week on the groundhopper day. May struggle to to a vlog as there are four games that day

Enjoyed your video of my beloved Falkirk FC. Glad you liked the stadium. Do you plan on going to other lower league grounds like Musselburgh Athletic?

@@Norrie754 would be good for you to do a vlog at Musselburgh one day.
Falkirk were not allowed to build their 4th stand because there is gas pipelines heath and safety issues
Thanks for the info.
