    I like that but I don't think we'll see wholesale changes.. he'll want to build a bit of momentum

    Can’t see too many changes-

    Sinisalo
    AJ CCV Trusty Inamura
    McGregor
    Hatate McCowan
    Nygren Yamada Maeda​

    Something like that would be good to see, no doubt he’ll stick with same team as vs The Sheep though.

    Can't see us making wholesale changes Tierney, Hatate and CCV most likely to be rested. Shin and Sinisalo could start but that will be the height of it. Falkirk are a SPL side now so we won't be complacent here particularly after being dumped out of the cup at this stage 2 years ago.

    They were decent against us last season so I can't imagine he will go daft with changes.

    I'd play Inamura, Sinisalo, Shin and JSP.

    I am not sure he will rotate that heavily given it’s the Friday night and we don’t play until Wednesday. I could see us rotating more in the Livi game between the two legs of the CL tie.

    There may be 2-3 changes for Falkirk but I expect us to go pretty strong for this one.

    They're pish though. I'd rather play a stronger side against Livi..

    The side above should do them easy as well..

    I think it’s more a logistics thing than level of opponent, we play Friday, Wednesday, Saturday, Tuesday. That Tuesday could also be half way around the world if it’s Kairat that we are playing and will be 3 games in 6 days. Where as Friday night means we have 4 full days rest before playing the CL game at home with no travel. I also think there are a good few that need the match sharpness.

    Don't think it's beneficial the now to be rotating. Be different if we'd started the season flying like last year, but we're still trying to find top form so really we need the minutes. Especially KT.

    Desmond​
    McNairn Wilson Allison McKay
    Lawwell
    Brown Rose
    Tisdale Nicholson Tilio​

    Don't think we will see many changes for this one. As others have said we are clearly still trying to find our flow particularly in the attacking third. So likely the side won't be too different to the weekend.
