There’s no doubt he can do a job for a club at this level and perhaps coming in cold as you say was the real issue but he just doesn’t seem to offer us anything we don’t already have. Signing Rudden would seem a bit of a panic buy for us just to have an extra striker. I’d hope the club are looking at other options that might offer us something different. No doubt Rudden will now have a stormer against us if he plays for Queens as that’s always the way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanky Highlander Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 14 hours ago, MICMAC said: I must've been asleep for this one. Simon Murray re-signs for Dundee on a 3 year deal for a 6 figure amount. Good result for us in the cup. Just Ronan Hale to worry about. Not seen Hale kick a ball in real life yet, he wasn’t signed by first or available for second pre-season friendly. Only got YouTube to go on. Hopefully he keeps up the cracking form he had at Cliftonville but it’s a bit of a jump and my guess is he’ll have a good half season fitness / learning curve. (I’m very sad to see Murray go but totally understand the well publicised family reasons). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pub car king Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 What's the sizing like on the new tops because Joma are all over the place. Last years zip up hoodie I have in a large, however I also have zip up jacket in an XL. Season before lasts home top (red pinstripe) is an XL and although not skin tight is "fitted". I'm a medium in nike and adidas. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ain’t no hiding place in it, that’s for sure. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CountryBumpkin Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 Incredibly poor audio today for those that can't make the game. I think the onus should be on the home side to provide facilities for both sides to provide commentary of games. It shouldn't be this difficult to provide a proper connection these days. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davie on Raith TV said Stirlng hoped to do a stream but to no avail. Sound excellent now and rovers two up due to Aidan Connoly double.

He contributed well in his first few matches, but was a total waste of a shirt after that. I certainly wouldn't accuse him of shirking, but he was frequently found behind play or in the wrong place and I have never seen a tall player that is so rubbish at winning headers. It was like being a man down at times and his inability to stay onside during the playoffs also seriously tested my patience. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grumswall Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 (edited) Anyone at the game today with some insight to how we looked? Great to see connolly starting the season with a hatrick. Hopefully he recaptures his form from before last season. Eta: anyone know the opening times for the club shop this coming week?

It's hard to tell how good we are against a League 2 side however I thought we were pretty solid. Stevenson and Easton linked up really well on the left hand side and it will be interesting to see how that develops over the season. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renton Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 We controlled the game, controlled the tempo and never really looked like letting Stirling into it. On the one hand, we looked good down the left hand side, and Stirling looked to double up on Easton which didnt work when Stevenson came up the inside channel, but I don't think Aidan Connolly drifting off the back post into space is going to yield that many goals in rhe championship. Smith was busy but didnt really look like the answer to our striker issues, we are still light there and need Vaughan for his creativity and ability to disrupt defences. So aye, a few pluses and no real minuses. We don't look like the finished article but dealt with the game in a professional manner that some other championship clubs can only dream of, I guess. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McGuigan1978 Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 Aye, completely agree with Renton. Very controlled, albeit Gaston only had one other save to make late in the first half when we were two to the good. Everything came down our left, and Dylan Easton and Lewis Stevenson seemed to dovetail each other pretty well. Similar to the Inverness game though, very little came down the right, and while Kieran Freeman seems quite happy to go over the half way line, his natural inclination seems to be to pass backwards, rather than advance forward or even look to get the ball into the penalty area from a deep position. I found it pretty frustrating, as he had a few opportunities to get behind their back line but just stopped. Early days though. Callum Smith really didn’t stake his claim as a potential option up front, and not much came off for him. It probably underlined the fact that we need another option who is happy to play that focal point position up front, or Jack Hamilton to really make that position his own. I suspect Callum Fordyce will get a few goals from set pieces for us, and quite liked the look of Lewis Gibson when he came on. All in all, a decent run out with enough positives to be encouraged about. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
