The New Raith Rovers Thread


Recommended Posts

(To tune of Bon Jovi's Living on a Prayer)

Cardle used to play for the Pars

Flying down the wing, he'd fall on his arse

It's tough, so tough

He realised that the Townies were shite

And that he looked great when in blue and white

For Raith, For Raith

They couldn't hold on

To what they'd got

Leishman didn't care if they paid him or not

He's now a Rover

And he's got lots of love

We gave him a shot

Jo-ey, we're halfway there

Jo-ey, what a fuckin player

McCann seems a completely bizarre signing given he's primarily a right-back and we have a right-back who is the club captain. Gives cover I guess but we're not a big side, we don't do specialised cover for every position, plus Donaldson can play and Fox showed last week he could do a 'Mark Ferry' and cover well there if needed. Would've liked to have seen us sign a midfielder, preferably one who can play wide, before a full-back but maybe Murray feels he can do a job in midfield. Who knows.

If Watson doesn't make it, or isn't risked, we may well even see McCann make his debut tomorrow with Thomson shifting in one as he done last Saturday.

It's a small squad, we are going to need more cover over the course of the season, and it may just be that the signing has been made while the player is available. Wouldn't read anything into it with regard to the current team shape or tactics.

Good luck to the new supporters' group.

I'll tell you after today. I assume he'll be playing at some point of he's fit. I've never heard of the guy, although I see he's played for Livi and Morton.

It's hard to imagine he'll be match fit if he's not had a club all season. He'll probably be able to manage 20 minutes or so off the bench though.

I've shared the link on Twitter saying there are a couple of good song suggestions & also posted on my personal Facebook to which a lot of them are on the friends list so it's up to the rest if we want to use it or not.

Btw, If anyone is interested, we have some 7 seats left for our bus to Alloa in 3 weeks time which needs to be near enough full to justify the hire cost, booking info is at http://liambarnett2010.wix.com/raithlions#!transport/c66t

Oh Rovers we love you.

There we go. Sorted.

Also I enjoyed listening to the original rendition of Geordie Munro this week. Kind of missed it.

Is anyone else loving the all white kit to the point they would like to see it stay for a few years

I have to admit, to begin with I didn't like the idea of us reverting to all white, Rovers have always played in blue in my 30+ years of supporting them. However, I absolutely love the kit this season and would be happy to see it used for future seasons.
