Stadium

In 1885, the site of Brockville Park in Falkirk was leased, and there the club remained until the last day of the 2002/2003 season.

Recent history

There were three occasions in which Falkirk were denied promotion (either directly or entry into a play-off) to the SPL.


When the Self Protection League was formed from the old Premier Division the league abolished the play-off between the second bottom team in the Premier Division and the second team in the First Division during the 1997-98 season. Falkirk lay in second place in the First Division and were thus denied a play-off with Motherwell.

At the end of the 1999-2000 season, when the S.P.L was due to expand to 12 teams. The team that finished bottom of the SPL (Aberdeen) was due to compete in a three-way play-off against the teams that finished 2nd and 3rd in the First Division (Dunfermline and Falkirk respectively), with 2 of the 3 teams earning entry to the SPL for season 2000/01. Falkirk's Brockville ground did not meet the SPL requirements so they applied to groundshare at Murrayfield. This was rejected by the SPL, who in 2004 accepted an identical groundsharing bid at Murrayfield from Hearts (a team who were already S.P.L members). The play-off system was hence abandoned and Aberdeen and Dunfermline were allowed into the SPL for the following season. The 1999-2000 Scottish Premier League was won by Rangers, finishing a staggering 21 points ahead of nearest challengers Celtic. ...

In the 2001-02 season, Falkirk finished 9th in the First Division, which would have led to them being relegated to the Second Division, but were allowed to stay up due to the demise of Airdrieonians, who folded on the last day of that season.

Airdrieonians Football Club, more commonly known as Airdrie were a Scottish professional football team from the town of Airdrie, in the Monklands area of Lanarkshire. ...


The following season there had been talk of a new stadium for Falkirk, however, nothing materialized. Falkirk won the First Division in the 2002/03, with their ground still not meeting the stringent SPL stadia requirements. A vote to decide whether or not Falkirk should be allowed to play at New Broomfield (an SPL compliant stadium also home to Airdrie United) was held, and the SPL chairmen voted against them being allowed into the league, thus saving Motherwell from relegation.

The very next season the SPL changed the conditions allowing clubs entry. The required size of stadium was reduced from 10,000 to 6,000.
