The New Raith Rovers Thread

Tough to pick a stand out player this season.

Too many in and (mostly) out performances.

Booth, Hill and Moon have been pretty consistent and played most games.

Imagine I would be tossing up between Watson and Elliot had they stayed fit (glad autocorrect never changed 'up' to 'off')

Saw this prize money stats in another thread. Underlines the importance of keeping playing right to end of season. The difference between say 5th and 8th is around 85k, the equivalents of having got another sky game

1: £386,248 (+£318,248)

2: £343,132 (+£276,132)

3: £300,016 (+£234,016)

4: £256,900 (+£191,900)

5: £240,731 (+£176,731)

6: £188,633 (+£126,633)

7: £172,464 (+£111,464)

8: £154,499 (+£94,499)

9: £138,331 (+£79,331)

10: £120,366 (+£63,366)

Well that's the clocks forward now... on to victory!!

Could still make 5th or 6th place, just like last season. 3 of our last 5 games are at home. Just need to get this game with Sevco out the road first.

That's part of the problem we seem better away

That's a recent thing. We were excellent at home up until the turn of the year.

Last season I think we were better away from home was the season we finished second, I think playing away suited the tactics were were playing with Tade up front chasing lost causes.

Maybe it's the fear factor and the feel that away result expectations are not so high and therefore the pressure less

Seems strange not to be able to take advantage of the home support

Maybe that will change once we are safe

85k is a huge amout for a club like ours, could be a seasons wages for two quality players.

Don't think the home support is much of an advantage. Given recent performances you're more likely to be playing against a backdrop of groans, abuse and booing Edited by roverthemoon

Aye, cause when we're playing well the atmosphere is...err...mainly silence, with the odd ooo or ahh, and maybe a c'mon you Raith.
