Don't get the clamour on here for Corr to sign up for next season. Would rather we just let him go. He looks a long way off being a reliable CB for a team aiming for promotion from the Championship. Hope Mathews is offered a new deal and hopefully we manage to persuade Byrne to sign permanent. Most importantly I hope we find a decent right back from somewhere.

Raith it is, very interesting league next year with no real clear favourites. Easton leaving will be a massive leveller for Raith and Livi's new signings haven't filled me with fear.
3/4 quality signings and we should be in and around the promotion playoffs.
Seriously over estimating Dylan Easton here. Good player on his day but very inconsistent. Wouldn't have started a game in playoffs if it wasn't for Turner being ineligible for the final. Stanton and Vaughan are definitely our most important players. More worried about losing out on Shaun Byrne than Easton tbh.

A couple of quality additions we should be title challengers.
Remember fans of a certain team saying the exact same thing last season. They ended up finishing 3 points above the relegation places.

Murray might just do that
, get the ball down Sunday and pass,pass, pass and you never know.last 20 mins gives us some hope and we are still in this and that was my hope before tonight , turner is a miss but get wee Lewis up top Sunday and let him do his thing. COYR

Aye Lewis was wasted tonight stuck out on the wing. Played into County's hands lumping it long all night. Set up how we did for first leg at Partick with Easton in for Turner and we might still have a chance.

I like Hamilton but when he plays we just seem to lump the ball forward to him which doesn't suit us at all. County deserved their 2 goal lead although the 2nd goal was piss poor defending from us at the corner. Could have escaped with a draw but from good chances missed from Corr and Mullen. At least we are still in it.

You would think any Pars fan with a brain would be wanting us to win tonight. Surely that would be better than getting skelped in every derby again next season and having a meltdown at our ' CaRtOoNs'.

12:00 kick off on a Sunday in Dingwall is absolute bullshit. No consideration for fans at all. f**k the SPFL.

Glad to see ICT getting what they deserve for appointing that cretin as their manager.

Great result but feel we let them off the hook. Hope we can replicate the 1st half performance for the 90 on Friday .k

Not a fan of having both Brown and Byrne in midfield together. Starting Turner on left wing ahead of Easton or Smith off the back of one good performance against an Arbroath side who had clearly chucked it is crazy. Watching the previous round against Airdrie I would have thought Hamilton was a certain starter up front.

It does make Kilgour out to be a cock, however if everytime a board member in Scottish football was revealed to be a wrong 'un there was a resignation/sacking there'd be no one left.
I find this a really odd viewpoint to hold though. If he wasn't affiliated with Raith Rovers surely there's no way you'd be thinking that scamming people out of money is a good thing?
A wrong 'un? Scamming people out of money? FFS get a grip man.
Like I said before anyone who clicks on a link on Facebook, twitter etc, and gets taken to a betting site must know it's a paid link or they are complete simpletons who shouldn't be allowed on the internet at all.
These are mug punters who would bet and lose whether they clicked on some affiliated link or not.
Why is it an odd viewpoint? The man is obviously very clued up to make so much money out of something like this and a genius at internet marketing given how much followers those "tip" sites have. He is a Rovers supported all his days too. That is exactly the kind of guy I want involved with the running of my club.

People trying to start a scandal here over absolutely nothing. Pathetic stuff. Anyone who follows online tipsters who don't show a clear profit/loss record is a moron of the highest order. Surely everyone with even a partial interest in gambling knows that these sort of tipsters are affiliated with bookies. The fact that Kilgour has built such a valuable and profitable company off the back of posting some shan tips online is very impressive in my view and we are fortunate he is involved with our club. I've no doubt the excellent social media output we've seen this year is down to him.

In danger of agreeing with the much vilified ro sham bo here but I thought other than the first 20 minutes last night when Airdrie looked very good and Partick's first goal of the match, that what was on show was very poor and lacking any real quality. The defending of cross balls was dreadful, I can see big Jack causing all sorts of problems if that's repeated in the next round. Both teams seemed to run out of steam and ideas in the second half. Hope that whoever we play that Murray sets us up to have a right go at them in both legs.

That's a cute move, who's not going to buy a shirt with your name woven into the fabric. 300 odd shirts at £45 a go is about thirteen grand and that's just for starters.
Aye and how many more people will join club 1883 before July to get their name on shirt. Tremendous strategy by the club.

W for our twitter admin again. Giving a guard of honour to a team who haven't been confirmed champions is undoubtedly pathetic behaviour. What happened to wanting to stop opposition teams from winning league on your own patch?

Was looking through these for Saints players and interesting that Brown remains unable to contribute in attack, and is still poor in defence.
Has he been this bad? And do you have people convincing themselves hes good defensively entirely because hes not good offensively and they're deluding themselves?
Yes and yes.

But that’s his personal choice given the difficult circumstances. Some men really struggle to shave their head.
It’s clearly affecting Craig’s confidence so finding a way to mock and criticise what he chooses to do says more about you than him.
I would hate for you or any of your family and friends to have to deal with this. Ffs give the guy a break.
FFS millions of men are bald or have shaved heads. I'm sure everyone has a friend or family member who is baldy. Being bald isn't a disability.

I'm not sure you could genuinely get a majority of rovers fans who would fully agree on what our strongest 11 is. I could come up with a different answer in the space of 10 minutes for that.
I'd rather just win games, than have an identity tbh.
How's this for positivity, we're finishing second in a league we finished 7th in last season. Anything more than that is an unexpected bonus.
I agree fans are all going to have a different opinion on our best 11 but the manager doesn't seem to have a clue what his best 11 is. That for me is a worry.
Successful teams who win the majority of games usually have a playing style/ identity.
I said everyone pre season would have seen 2nd as a huge positive but the way the season has petered out has been very disappointing. We are two ties away from Premier league it really should be treated as a great opportunity to get promoted not oh well if we win it's an unexpected bonus but it's hard to be optimistic given the current run we are on.

While everyone would have been happy if you told us we would finish 2nd at the start of the season I can see why the manager and team are on the receiving end of some criticism. For a manager to be 33 games into a season and still have no clue what his best starting 11 is insane. I could probably more accurately predict the starting 11 of any other team in the league rather than the team I watch most weeks.
2 years of Murray now and I still have no idea how he sends out his team to play. We have no identity at all, some times we boot it long, sometimes we try and knock it about a bit. Sometimes we press the opposition other times we don't.
Would be nice if we could win the next few games and at least go into the playoffs with some momentum and positivity.

You’re both pitiful fair weather fans if you feel belittling players when the team does poorly is the answer to your frustrations.
f**k right off with that nonsense. Supported the team all my days through Anelka, Goodwillie and all the other shite. I called Tammy Abraham dog shite, same with Fredrickson or any of Anelka's dross. The next time we sign a player who looks like he hasn't played football in his life I'll call him dog shite too. Certainly doesn't make me any less of a fan than some guy who watches streams from Texas.

Disagree vehemently. JBrown is a much better defender. Our defensive problems are in the middle with inconsistency, confusion and SBrown. Now, JBrown isn’t IM’s preferred attacking FB, but he’s certainly what we needed with the Millen Affair.
J Brown is dog shit. No danger is he a better defender than Millen.

3 subs made and Vaughan still on the bench what the actual f**k.

Nothing personal about my opinion on Corr as you are suggesting and couldn't give a f**k if he played for Celtic. One of our most popular players of recent times was signed from Celtic so that's not the reason why people don't rate him. Wild that you can say he hasn't been at fault for any goals recently and hasn't put a foot wrong. He loses his man at nearly every cross.
