Raithie Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 Who do you lot have to come in when poor form, injuries and suspensions hit? The likes of Bobby Barr and Mark Stewart? More likely who would we have come in if Bobby Barr got injured and suspended as he'll be first pick week in week out. Your point still stands though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MICMAC Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 Just watched the highlights and the rugby tackle on mcmanus was more of a penalty than Graham's was. 2 defenders looking up in the air, waiting for the ball to drop and Graham turns and trips over a stationery player. They might've had a pen before that though but the highlights doesn't really give a proper look at it, is the player already falling and M'voto trips over him? Or was it a push? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovers1992/1993 Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 Yesterday Falkirk brought on Bob McHugh and Austin to "change the game" and both looked absolutely miles from the level of the Premiership. Who do you lot have to come in when poor form, injuries and suspensions hit? The likes of Bobby Barr and Mark Stewart? Injuries have already hit 4 of our starting 11 players. We still seemed to cope alright. In saying that, to even suggest that we'd cope with the top flight with the squad we have at the minute is a ridiculous statement. We do have a few players that are probably able to make the step up, but only a few and we'd need pretty much a full new team to cope properly.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovers1992/1993 Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 go look at our squad on the rovers website. Its very nuch a case of who do we leave out just now. But we aint talking about the rovers are. Do you honestly think most teams in the championship will go into september without depth. Has it been updated yet? I checked a couple of days ago, and there was still 6 players missing..M'Voto, Osei, Coustrain, Roberts, Skacel and McManus aren't on the OS.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Varna Rover Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 (edited) i dont think it has. No only 2 of our 8 signings are showing. Squad total now 23. healthy i suggest. Edited July 24, 2016 by Varna Rover update 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Varna Rover Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 3 hours ago, RandomGuy. said: Because they actually have decent depth. I'm basing it purely on squads on paper, and obviously teams can play above that, but, over a season, that can be the difference. Its as i said. We will never get the chance to find out, but why Cant teams sustain it over a season. Just your opinion like mine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Blue Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 How did Mcmanus play on Saturday? -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALDERON Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Pretty well. Big presence up front and good pace. Had a couple of chances but I'm sure the finishing will come. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovers1992/1993 Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 How did Mcmanus play on Saturday? Our goal came from his shot that was going miles wide, before it took a deflection.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McGuigan1978 Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 I thought he looked really good. Quicker than I'd realised and the two of them up there seemed the best combination from the three strike duos Locke has picked this season. Couple of times, especially in the first half, that Vaughan spotted his run and threaded the ball through to him. On both occasions, Fox had to rush out to claim or block. The goal also arrived after the two of them linked up on the right. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MICMAC Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Hmm do they have a money tree thats miraculously appeared, thought they were skint:whistle We had Ryan Blackadder, went on trial at Portsmouth and never kicked a ball for us after that and the young lad that won the youth academy in Italy is playing non-league football in England. Having a trial doesn't mean you're a worldy or going to be 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottydog Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 (edited) I watched Louis play in a lot of Dev' games last season including the game at Alloa where he scored twice and was still only 16 at the time. He looked a tremendous prospect, I remember speaking to ray Mac about him and he said he couldn't wait to sign him... and now he has.

McGuigan1978 Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 He was supposed to sign for us a few weeks back but it was 'delayed.' I guess we know why now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
