roverthemoon Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 strange link to Jimmy LIndsay - was this anything to do with his suspension? just think about St Mirren board member handing over financial documents. not been privvy to the ins and outs of the Lindsay case so maybe I have missed something 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grumswall Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 http://www.fifetoday. ..talks-1-2243624 Apparently there was interest in a takeover from the same mob who tried to buy Queens. Were the board correct to dismiss this out of hand, without so much as a meeting? It all seems a bit crooked to me but nonetheless, I'm sure a meeting wouldn't have hurt. Maybe something to do with Jimmy Lindsay's suspension though. You would have to imagine they may have done a little research before saying no, plus if u look at the last time we had someone offering that kind of money...... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just the last time! Anelka, the weegies with their alleged links to gangsters, Kelly...it's a string of disasters. The current lot aren't very good at balancing the books but at least they're Rovers fans. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raith Against The Machine Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 ANoyone know whats up with the OS? The short answer: Yeah, it was moved to the .net site linked above, and Google hasn't caught up yet. The long answer: No, I don't think anyone quite knows for sure. Best guess it looks like the club fell out with Jim Foy (or vice versa) who ran the old website. I wouldn't be surprised to find out that all the data on the old site was basically "owned" by Jim Foy, and that's why the new website is so devoid of historic content at the moment. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paco Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Laurie. Hope he's fit for pre-season. Think he's out of contract in the summer. Really hope that isn't his last game for us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoss Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Yeah, likewise, hope we'll be seeing plenty more of him yet. get well soon, laurie. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC_Lachlan Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Hasn't Laurie been doing his coaching badges? If so, I'd expect he'll still be kicking around next season. I really hope he is, fantastic servent to the club. Speedy recovery big man! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bagpuss Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Laurie is a legend. Hope he gets another contract and he should get a testimonial as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hank Scorpio Posted April 22, 2012 Author Share Posted April 22, 2012 Heard wee rumours last night that Ryan Wallace is a shoe in for coming back next season, and also that we're going back to half part time half full time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raith Against The Machine Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Heard wee rumours last night that Ryan Wallace is a shoe in for coming back next season, and also that we're going back to half part time half full time. Wouldn't be at all opposed to either of those two possibilities. Wallace looks to have had a barnstorming season with East Fife, twenty goals from thirty one games is impressive for anyone, nevermind someone who we last saw playing in midfield. As for the part-time/full-time stuff, I feel like we're well positioned to be "The Biggest Wee Team", picking and choosing the best part-time players. Guys like Dave McGurn who could go full-time but enjoy/need their work outside of football. Obviously I'm biased, but I think if we start taking on part-time players, there isn't a more attractive club for them to join. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leggy Blonde Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 (edited) Bring back mark Ferry!!!! Should never have released him IMO. Gutted about Laurie too. He's a Rovers stalwart. Get well soon.

Raith Against The Machine Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 I'm gutted to see the Binos at the bottom of the second. I've been to see them a couple of times this season and they haven't looked that bad! Obviously they were pretty woeful under Jocky Scott, but Greig McDonald's side look really unlucky to be where they are. Graham Weir still puts in all the work in the world but still doesn't look like he'd score if he was up against a Subbuteo goalie. Mark Ferry scored a lovely goal the last time I saw them, side footed it round the keeper from out by the corner of the box. I've just had a wee look, and according to Wikipedia (yeah, I know) Fez has more than twice as many league goals as Graham Weir does (58 compared to 28) in just three more games (250 compared to 247) You can use statistics to prove anything, but if you'd never seen Graham Weir play, you'd wonder how he ever managed to get a game for any club, nevermind forge a career in the game! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoss Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Wait, what? I had totally failed to realise that that was the same Ryan Wallace. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
