During our very special 2008 season, the Falcons were fortunate to receive 'Pob lwc' (good Luck!) Playoff/Super Bowl wishes and Congrats from Wales, U.K.
 
"Greetings from Cardiff, Wales, UK.
Coach Bert has been on a rugby site in UK saying about the success your teams have been having this season. Your results certainly highlight great achievements this season from all your teams.
Best of luck for the business end of the year and lets hope you can carry this success in the years to come."

"Pob lwc in your crunch match against your local rivals North Scranton Vikings this coming weekend. Smash erm boys!!
