    That's enough Pie and Bogota for today lads. 

    I don't think we should necessarily rule people out as 'long shots'. While there's some that are absolutely filed into the 'Regan Hendry tier' of very very unlikely, I'd never have expected us to go out and sign Hamilton for a fee, or Mullin. There's definitely a different feel to us this season where we look like we won't be finding ourselves scraping around looking to string together a team for an early league cup exit. 

    The season ticket video is a pretty good summation of where we're at. I'm a bit surprised there's folk having a go at Gordon Brown's involvement - I'm no fan of him myself but you're into a hiding for nothing if you go about basing your life about different viewpoints which are different to your own. He's a Rovers fan, and there's not enough of us.

    Good to see Barrowman interacting with a supporter's account concerns on twitter about the under 12s season tickets. There's feedback from both Dunfermline and Partick fans that the free season tickets have been a net benefit for their clubs. Certainly in my experience, and probably a lot of others in my generation, you'll have found that their first interaction with Rovers came from receiving free comps at schools in the late 90s and early 2000s. Not everyone will stay, but it'll definitely blood in younger supporters. If we don't ask the question, then nothing will happen. 

    Absolutely this. I’m not a fan of Browns politics and whether we or I like it or not he is a Rovers fan. Hope we as Rovers fans get behind the new board and purchase the season tickets.

    That’s Spencer Confirmed he’s away 

    I’m not too bothered, we have to try other players, if we keep re signing the same players that had us finishing in 7th, then the only way is down. The new guys that have come in might not be suited to Spencers taking it slow approach. Hopefully we have our eyes on  defence and a goalie.

    All under 12 for free is a great idea especially if your a parent you will make a saving and it might encourage more adults to come , So far the signings have been cracking and even better getting them on long term deals .  The pricing won’t satisfy everyone however look at the new league season we will need to be more competitive just to finish in a decent league position . Some fans will moan due to personal circumstances / lack of finance however what do the Rovers do price to suit a minority or price accordingly to suit the majority to make sure we have a competitive team to watch who may well be battling for a play off position at the end of the season . The fans wanted change we have it , we wanted decent signings we have got them ( so far ) so now it’s over to the fans to now back the team cause I certainly don’t want to watch guys like Akio , Fredriksen, Concalves and the likes  

    Yup, quality signings come at a price. Everything is expensive now. We just have to get used to that fact. It can’t just be Raith Rovers, it’s every where.

    They've kept it under the rate of inflation which was the main thing for me. A rise was unavoidable but when you break it down it's tremendous value if you're a regular. 

    Come on Rovers fans , get them bought as will I. This lot are making good on their promises and building us into a sustainable outfit. We HAVE to turn out in our numbers

    Mullin signing doesn't excite me as much as a decent keeper or big mobile centre back with positional sense and no need to dive in would

    I’m sure that’s next on the list. But we need an experienced head at the back. I mentioned Ashcroft. But there might be better. I’d also like us to look at Kevin Dabrowski
