We begin our Championship season tomorrow evening as we host Queen’s Park at The Falkirk Stadium. Before the match we will be unfurling our League Champions Flag. Please read the important information on the ceremony below.The flag raising ceremony will begin five minutes before kick-off at 7:40pm, when late Club Secretary and Director Gordon Wright’s wife, Joyce, and brother Norman will unfurl the League Championship Flag in honour of Gordon’s memory, in recognition of the impact Gordon Wright made on Falkirk Football Club and to celebrate last season’s achievements.
Please make sure you are in your seat early to join us as we fondly remember Gordon and celebrate the club’s successes last season.
Everyone at Falkirk Football Club was devastated by the passing of board member and company secretary Gordon Wright at the age of 61 shortly after the conclusion of the 2023/24 season.
Gordon joined the board in 2020 and has been instrumental in every single improvement made at the club over these last few years. He was a hard-working, diligent, and thoughtful colleague, who had become a good friend to many around the club, known for his gentle manner, good humour, eternal optimism and unique dress sense.
We cannot thank him enough for his dedication and loyal service and Falkirk FC is forever in his debt. He will be fondly remembered and badly missed as a friend, volunteer, board colleague and fellow fan.
Our thoughts and deepest condolences remain with Gordon’s wife Joyce, his parents Ian and Margaret, his three brothers, and all his wider family and friends.
