The Beveridge Park hotel is next to the station, but haven't been in it for a few years. Other than that, there's nothing directly en-route. The Novar (likely to be rammed) and the Abbotshall are a few minutes off track. I believe most Pars fans congregate in O'Connell's, next to Sports Direct on the High Street. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halbeath Raith Rover Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 25 minutes ago, theswagman said: Where’s the best place between the train station and Starks Park for a pint please? A few places on the High Street that are mainly of the big barn variety. Penny Farthing is a good wee pub. Just up from the high street you have the Novar which is good but busy. The Estuary on Links Street has a more traditional earthy charm. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s what was Bar Itza / Mullins / Tropicana back in the day. At the crossroads at Charlotte Street. Its okay. The Abbotshall has been done up and it looks okay, although I haven’t ventured in yet.

Stirling Albion are rereleasing an old kit from the 90s made by spall who are also remaking the kit (I was amazed they were still going) Anyway it must be knocking on the door of 30 years since the unbeaten season with that great team who also wore a kit made by spall. Would be good if the club could get a few made like the recent copa cup final and europe ones. Here is Sinky looking resplendent in the afore mentioned design. Well well well That spall reissue is a bit of a random kit to go for, we were with them for years and there's better ones to choose. That said I've just clicked buy now. Hopefully the one above is on the horizon, I would love to get the away one in white. Edited March 8 by pub car king . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the gaffer sees something in training that has formed his opinion. That said, we need people in natural positions in the back line. My view is start him - and if he is poor, take him off after half an hour. I think starting him should be enough to motivate him into proving himself and if he doesn't we will all surely see that he is not the answer we think he is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m absolutely not in the mood for starting players, in a derby, to hook them after half an hour if they’re shit. Corr probably should have had a chance before now. It should have been back in January, if not earlier. The ship has all but sailed for him, I suspect. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you start Corr then you’re benching either Byrne or Brown. I wouldn’t be doing that in a derby. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raithie Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 If Murray doesn't trust Corr against a team bottom of the league who had just been horsed 6-0 he's not going to play him in derby. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllanJM Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 4 minutes ago, mrraith71 said: as for IM saying he wants to sign Ashcroft next season that’s a strange one with him getting injured right away on his first game Not strange at all. He's a very good defender at this level if we're still here and has shown he's also capable of playing in the premiership if we go up. I'm not concerned about the injury long term either. Hamstring is a fairly common place to get an injury and there's nothing to suggest there's more to it than that. Would be a great signing in my opinion. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoversNProud Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 I’d love to know what Corr has done to be overlooked time and time again. From chatting to a few of the senior players recently, they all spoke highly of him and are surprised he hasn’t been playing. After last weeks collapse at Arbroath, big Kev has come in for some over the top criticism. Yes he made an error at the second goal but the biggest problem(a blind man could see) was IM putting on a CM(again) in defence and once again Broonie was all over the place back there (no fault of his own). All while we have a CH sat watching on the bench. Madness IMO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m curious which aspect of the poor luck that saw him pick up an injury in his debut would mean he’s not good enough to play for the Rovers? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
