    Ok sandy I’m calm, you on the other hand🤷🏻‍♂️, I was showing a bit of support to @mrraith71 as a few were doubting his claim. I have heard the same story as him and as he says we will know on Friday night, have a good day 👍🏻

    We won't really know. If Millen is on the bench or not in the squad it could be for a number of reasons - injury perhaps. If he's benched it's no different to the tinkering of the squad Murray has done throughout the season. Doesn't immediately equate to a falling out. Millen was pretty much undroppable if he was available as we had no one to replace him with. Brown now gives Millen a bit of competition to keep his place.

    Connor O'Riordan and Ryan Nolan are two that jump out being in the 'genuinely no idea who they are category '. O'Riordan was a hit. Nolan was pretty middling without being truly awful. 

    Was racking my brains on players I'd never heard of prior to signing and completely forgot about those two 🤦‍♂️

    Murray does seem to strike me as a manager who will only sign players he's either heard of, managed before, or managed against.

    That's probably not strictly a Murray trend though. We've been stung before signing players no one had heard of - John Frederiksen and Timmy Abraham to name a couple albeit the latter wasn't a Murray signing.

    Well done you, no point letting folk who have been rewarded by the club have a wee perk. How dare they look to repay folk who have chucked in a few quid. It's much better you choose when to break the news to the widest audience than the club.

    Quick question. Does anyone remember us playing Airdrie at broadwood in the 90s in the cup? I am sure Kirkwood scored a screamer? Can’t seem to find anything about it anywhere. 

    Was that the game Peter Hetherston scored for them who promptly started getting it right up the Rovers fans? That's only game I mind against Airdrie at Broadwood, sure we were behind the goals as well for a change and Hetherston's goal was down our end. 

  6. Do Livi not train on their pitch like we do with ours? has there been a massive difference in temp/conditions from Livi to Kirkcaldy as our pitchs appears to be fine, pics on Twitter of players training on it yesterday.

    Nah, I follow home and away irrespective of what league we’re playing in or how current form is. 

    I feel sorry to those who’ve not went to away games this season..been tremendous. Atmosphere and results wise top notch - Tannadice, Hampden, Partick, Ayr, ICT, Pars x 3, Abroath. Lots of late winners, big away crowds and good atmosphere.

    Rightly or wrongly I feel it gives me more right to have a wee moan more so than the armchair highlights experts.

    That last home game must be the worst atmosphere I’ve experienced at Starks with 3500 home fans…young team should get incentivised to come for me as it makes a world of difference.

    Whilst I'm not denying some away games this season have been superb not everyone can afford to go to the football every week. I'd never judge someone as any less of a supporter just because they maybe only go to home games or think they're opinion doesn't matter. Away games for me were few and far beween until my laddie showed an interest in the Rovers and if he had his way he'd be home and away every week but sadly that's just not affordable for us so it's a case of picking and choosing away games based on importance/distance/affordability. We've done Airdrie, Tannadice, Pars and Hampden which is a decent return for us and will be at Livi on Saturday. Your last point I agree with and said as much in the recent survey from the club. Singing section need some form of identity as right now they are just a random collection of youngsters. A group name, personalised flags, merch, tifo displays etc is what's needed. If the visual aspect of it (flares exclused) can be sorted you'll find kids wanting to be in amongst it.

  8. For all the plaudits Nouble was getting from Arbroath fans when he was there on loan he was largely kept quiet in games against them. No idea how this game will go, a free hit for us in all honesty. Hopefully have a couple of players back. Definitely a winnable game for us though.

  9. Completed. It's interesting the difference in our away crowd in comparison to when at home - that's been the case for donkeys seasons now mind you. The group at the back of the South Stand each week look about primary school age so haven't a clue where the older kids that frequent group singing areas in away grounds sit when we're at home. Hopefully the trial against Airdrie is a success.
