479 at the game.

McGuff should start tonight if the manager has any sense.

This week's FFP.

I just hate you.

Looks like the new pitch is closer to the railway stand. The old pitch was 70 yards wide so it'll be interesting to find out what the new one is, hopefully slightly wider.

Wouldn't it be wiser to hold back until Smith has gone? That way there's still something left for the new guy.

Things were far from grim in 1913. That was our Scottish Cup Final year. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1913_Scottish_Cup_Final

Great start to the season 26 years ago.

Would that be the one about getting a better manager on a one year rolling contract?

We'll get relegated the following season if Smith is takes us into the Championship.

Under the terms of the rent the club was/is responsible for the upkeep of the stadium, not the owner. At least that was my understanding of it . Could be wrong.

I hope you don't use language like that in front of your children.

We can't afford not to sack him.

And also find out why we have so many injuries.

Wow

No Gillespie today.

Couldn't care less now about the Bates' money. I did once but not now. Looking at the bigger picture, John Sim is trying to identify loss makers and get rid of them eg renting out Michael Woods and renovating the grass pitch every close season. He's also looked at every part of Stark's Park with professional people to see what can be done long term to generate income. Generating income from redundant buildings is an absolute first for a board at Raith Rovers and deserves to be commended not criticised. I like John Sim and the board he's put together and I like the way he's going about things. He's very open and honest which is refreshing. Compare that to the mafia of 15 years ago.

At present they train in Glenrothes and from what I've been told it costs Rovers £90000 a year. That, I think, is one of the reasons for the new surface and training in Kirkcaldy.

Bene's getting back to the player he was.

Well done Bene.

If only we could rest a few players for the Cove game. Berry and Stevenson should start for starters.
