  1. Is your Raith TV run by volunteers? So much better than our version, and a lot of mainstream content too actually, commentary included which was professional and balanced unlike our lot. Although the main man didn't let his colleague get much of a word in. Quite liked the wee snippets at half time too about a striker getting lifted for fighting outside a Perth nightclub and 'long serving' manager Tommy McLean

    Watt is still going down too often and too easily, I think it’s having a negative effect on the referees.  There was a foul on him in the second half that was a stick on but waved off by the ref, Cant help but thing it was because of previous antics.

    As you say took his goals well.

    Aye, his card has been marked by the referees for a long time.

  3. Noticed the club Facebook page wishing young Craig Moore a happy 18th birthday. Anyone au fait with the academy teams know how he's progressing? Thought he was really good at Ibrox that day when we had to play the bairns during Covid, assumed he would be featuring in and about the first team by now but hasn't really had a sniff.

    Done both when I was there last year and Summit is brilliant. Loved the glass lift for the part of the ascent, amazing views that far up.

    Aye, loved the Summit, glass lift as you say and the level with the mirrored floor and ceiling are amazing. We booked it for the sunset and the views over Manhattan as the sun went down were something else.

    I've not watched it for a long time (is it still going?) but very few people ever seemed to host that show and not get taken apart, tbf.

    They knew your weakness before hiring you and just exploited it ruthlessly.

    He wasn't hosting he was one of the guests. He got up and left as he 'needed a wee' and they just carried on without him, was arse-clenchingly cringey.

  6. Used to listen to his show now and again on a Sunday morning on 6Music with his mate, Matt I think, must be 15 years ago, and they came across as a pair of right creepy b*****ds. Vaguely remember them giggling along to some story about a threesome they had where Brand had been officiously coordinating positions, much to his mate's amusement, and even back then it all sounded a bit shady.

    I think my point is there is no basis to say he is bad but equally no basis to say he is good.

    Think a loan move is exactly what he needs. 

    Aye, wasn't particularly replying to you, more to posts I've read on here and beyond where such and such is absolutely shite and will never make it, or none of these kids are good enough. Criticism is natural but I find it hard to gauge any of them really as very few have had an extended run in the team. Same people probably who are now talking about how much Declan Glass is worth in today's market, after a few reasonably promising displays in the Championship. Meekison has been written off, Mochrie too bizarrely. 

    Even under Courts when Asghar was beating his substantial chest about how many academy players we were introducing, most would get half an hour and then be back on the bench again for the next month. When Chalmers left there were people talking very authoritatively about him, his apparent weaknesses mainly (boy's just no good enough apparently) but I can only think of a handful of times I've actually seen him play. He did ok against Rangers in the 1-0 Jamie Robson game then was bombed out for Niskannen, who genuinely wasn't very good.

    Not to say we're not all guilty of it, I had pretty much dismissed Fotheringham as fodder after last season which shows how much I know.
