    That penalty save was unreal. And that just sums it all up for us. 

    Tbf, why is the goalie even intimating anything after it? Yous are wining 3-0. Show a bit of humility ffs. 

    Winning 3-0 away to your derby rivals and your man is after humility. You’d all have been doing the same. Get it round you.

    Great to see The Special One working his magic at Starks. Unbelievably, some of our support thought the miracles he performed with us were all down to Jack Ross. Then there were some others who thought he sullied his legacy by daring to leave for full-time football. As far as I'm concerned, he could've driven off into the sunset in a Clydebank strip and I'd still want a statue of him outside the rock.

    I'm going to very cheekily leave this here, which I totally appreciate is a bit of a stretch, given I'm not even sure he reached 10 games for Raith. Greig Young had a horror injury last month and is going to need surgery. Since our owners don't put a penny into the club, it's fallen on Sons fans' generosity (as usual), when normal folk are getting absolutely shafted by the cost of living crisis.

     

    I fully understand why this is required, but your owners should be fucking ashamed of themselves that this is happening.

    Mighty QP v The streets of Raith

    Although the error has been attributed to commentators David Coleman or Frank Bough, it was Leitch who, when the Scottish football team Raith Rovers won a match, said "They'll be dancing in the streets of Raith tonight". This was seen as a display of ignorance since Raith Rovers play in the town of Kirkcaldy.

    Thanks mate.

    Raith Rovers v Airdrie Utd

    Turns out Telfer and particularly Frizzell got a lot of joy running off Todorov and the seven behind them dominated the ball for large spells in the first half. Fair play!

    A draw was probably about right overall but if any team deserves to win that it was Airdrie. Airdrie were excellent in the first half, maybe the best we’ve played all season. Still plenty of daft moment but a lot more intent going forward and we were very unfortunate not to open the scoring. Raith probably had the better of the second half but both teams had chances to win it.

    I thought Raith’s front four (plus Easton) were really poor. Connolly had one good shot, Vaughan didn’t do too much and Mullin’s only contribution of note was that bizarre swipe towards his own goal. I said it after the last game but Easton is wasted out wide, though Stanton did well and is probably a better player in there overall. Airdrie’s defence did very well though, hard to fault any of them really. McCabe in particular strolled it when he went back there and Megwa was excellent defensively once again. 

    To be fair to the front 4, they’ve played a ridiculous amount of football lately. We’ve pretty much one forward sub each week so they’ve all played more than they really should have. Smith, Vaughan and Mullin run themselves into the ground on Tuesday night and Connolly is just back from a huge spell on the sidelines stretching back into last season. They’ve done incredibly well in the circumstances.
