  1. Just an update on Cammy Binnie at Albion Rovers

    After the weekend v Cowdenbeath, in all competitions he has had to face 22 penalties including shootouts

    10 have been missed with Binnie directly saving 8 of them a record not too many keepers will have at any level

    The story I heard was Rovers were looking at your other keeper but were delighted when Binnie became available

    Do you think Stirling let the right keeper go?

  2. Just found this thread



    Bringing everything back to pie and bovril being a football forum,

    If anyone has ever been to Cliftonhill to Albion Rovers by train,

    This Cadbury advert was filmed in the wee corner shop next to Coatdyke train station. Totally random filming a Cadbury advert in coatbridge
  3. Rovers managed to create a couple of good chances after they were well neat, they hit the bar and were unlucky with a couple chances coming very close

    A mixture of failing to finish and being dreadful at the back cost rovers, who to be fair were missing 5/6 players of their own

    Poor scoreline but the way they played not a surprising one

  4. Can someone at the game tell the guy shouting COME ONNNN FORFARRRR every second to zip it
    I tried to tell the boy and he took offence, can't tell why, will happily have a conversation with him outside station park next time we are up or if he wants to come back to cliftonhill


    Forfar took their chances today we didn't, that's why their second
  5. If winning four games in a row for the first time since 2013 isn't a sign we have officially turned a corner then I don't know what will.
    Looking forward to the game. Two teams playing with a bit of a swagger just now so should be a decent watch.
    Fancy us to win by the odd goal in four.
    Going by that logic we have 4 clean sheets in a row for the first time since 2007 haha
  6. From a rovers point of view about City, your 2 center half's looked terrified every time rovers ran at them

    The fact that max wright (5'5") was winning ariel duels was a sackable offence

    We have now played city 3 times this season, taken 6 points in the league and a penalty shootout win in the league cup, scored 7 conceeded 1

    How you sit above us by a point in the league is beyond me, and I mean that with respect

    How long before the manager is sacked

  7. Ace Combat 7: skies unknown. This game is fucking brilliant. Arcade action flying, with loads of different planes and weapons to pick from, and a batshit mental story set in some alternative world called Strangereal that has a space elevator. I didn't really follow it properly to be honest but the gameplay is fantastic.
    I played ace combat years ago, I couldn't follow the story and years later found out it was because they didn't port the story over from the Japanese version

    Was great fun though
  8. The fifth one is the spin off with the two female characters isn't it? B it shorter but I really enjoyed that as well.

    Also played the first trilogy in a oner and they're excellent. Among my favourites.
    Yeah, someone described it as uncharted 4.5, sort of glorified DLC,

    There were a couple that were exclusively released on psp too I think
  9. Trivia question here.


    Should they win the replay Clydebank face Clyde in R3: it would seemingly be their first-ever Scottish Cup meeting under any guise.

    Dundee United and Dundee have met various times, as have Berwick Rangers and Rangers.

    (EDIT: However in contrast St Johnstone never seem to have met Johnstone, nor Ayr Parkhouse met Ayr).


    Have there been any other instances of Scottish Cup ties where 1 club's name contained the entire name of their opponent?
    Albion Rovers have played both Stirling Albion and Raith Rovers
