RoversMad Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Just to let the Raith fans know that my pal and former Raith player from the early 90's, Phil Burn passed away last weekend. He played 60 games for Rovers before heading over to ply his trade at Ballymena. A great lad and only 43. Here's a little obituary from Ballymena's website http://www.ballymenaunitedfc.com/ Very sad, RIP Phil RIP Phil, sad news. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ro Sham Bo Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Sorry to hear about Phil Burn. He was just breaking into the side when I started going down to Starks so would have come through roughly at the same time as players like Shaun Dennis and Ian Ferguson. It would be nice if there is a tribute at our next home game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ebanda's Handyman Services Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 My lasting memory of Phil Burn was making me feel shit on what should have been one of the best days of my young life. Rovers mascot for the first time and he made a cruel jibe about my long, skinny legs. So, aye... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bradford-Rover Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 How long does it take to get back from Dingwall on the supporters bus ( kdy)? Any help would be magic I guess you could always ask the supporters club since they are running the bus or is that too sensible? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broken Algorithms Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 I guess you could always ask the supporters club since they are running the bus or is that too sensible? In fairness, its easier to find out stuff here due to the number of people on here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbykdy Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 Going by bus you will be doing well to get back to Kirkcaldy before half 8. Think I am right in saying Dingwall is around 165 miles and the A9 aint the best. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And to answer the obvious question, I wasn't gunning it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet there wasn't a soul in sight until you got to Perth, that would've made it well easy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broken Algorithms Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 You know that time the steward fell over and made a tit of himself? It may have appeared on youtube...first time I've seen this due to going a bit mental during the celebrations... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raith Against The Machine Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 (edited) Fair to say 'bigeein' has taken a bit of an owning there. Aye, he seems to have just gone a bit mental. Or be a bit mental. Still, keeps the bruises off the wife, eh? Oh God, I've gone and started reading FanTalk. I've managed to steer clear for a couple of months, and I'd forgotten how fucking terrible it is. I sincerely hope I've been "April Fooled" by the bloke who thinks that a lack of an April Fool's Day gag on the official website is indicative of the clubs attitude towards its supporters. On a separate note, does anyone still buy a programme? I noticed that Stirling Albion now do a monthly magazine instead of matchday programmes, and it looks like a decent piece of work, from the one I had a peek at. I was also thinking that the "Manager's Notes" bit from the programme could be stuck onto the website every week or two, as well as a wee update from board level too (if there is anything to report).

I think the guy was serious about the April Fool's Day thing, mental I know. I never buy a programme these days. I don't like carrying them about and I don't collect them, so if I did buy one it would just end up floating about the house for a bit then getting recycled. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paco Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 (edited) I know Eric has a look on here so can I just say that's a tremendous post he's made there. Firmly put the guy in his place, without coming across as condescending... which must've been difficult.. Edit: Grant, I'm not sure how over the years you lot have managed to spin that goal into a last minute goal, but there was a good ten minutes left. Late nonetheless, and a sore one. b*****ds.
