The New Raith Rovers Thread


Recommended Posts

Looking at the fixtures/scenarios, it looks as if the main chance we have is Airdrie not winning against QoS (and then all of the other results across several groups where we need higher seeded teams to do the business happens). Second best would be Queens Park not winning against Kelty (and then again, all of the other results go by seeding).

I don't think us trying to score our way through is possible, considering the team we are playing and the sides others are playing. In short, we need a favour.

Yeah got to agree, and one, if not both Falkirk and Ayr should win their games too. So one of them pretty much guaranteed passage to the next round. If not both knocking out Dundee United in the process. Ayr at home to Buckie as well which, looking at Buckie’s previous results should be very comfortable for Ayr who have already hit the net a few times in Pre-season and in this competition. 
 

Not the end of the world going out of a competition that you have very little chance of winning overall but the prize money would have been welcome. I guess we’ll just have to sell more Doner pies….🤣

So we need to go do our part, which is win on Saturday. We also need to score a few goals in the process. I expect Hamilton come here looking to lay down a marker for the league too, it'll be a tough game. 

Watched their game last night and they caused County a lot of problems, as did we in patches on Saturday. Hopefully proved wrong but can't see us racking up a big win against Accies.

A lot might depend on how Accies approach the game on Saturday.

With them being out of the cup they might either play without pressure or fear, or they might wrap certain players in cotton wool ahead of the league season.

Very happy that as a podcast we've been able to sponsor Callum Hannah. 

Kudos to the club because they're down to the final three shirts left to sponsor, and one of those was only signed a few weeks ago. 

There seems to be some inconsistency on who has things still available and who doesn't. Hanlon and Stevenson for example have no indication that they either have or need a boot/training kit sponsor. Whereas Euan Murray has his listed with "Available".

Could be worse lads, we could’ve signed Lee Ashcroft. Jeepers 😳

I’m not sure who’s most to blame for that goal. Ashcroft or the Keeper… either way it’s an absolute howler!

Ashcroft also looks like he's towing a tractor at the 2nd Clyde goal!

Speaking of defenders what's the script with Hanlon? Did Murray not say he's was sure he'd be fine for the Stirling game and yet he's not even made the bench the last 3 games.
