The New Raith Rovers Thread


Recommended Posts

Not long back from Edinburgh. Just watched the last few minutes of extra time and the celebrations over again and still buzzing.

Beating either of the ugly sisters in a cup final, challenge cup or not, is something that doesn't come round too often. It feels even better knowing that we have given all other non The Rangers supporting fans in Scotland a good laugh as well.

Agreed. Fantastic confident performance from Robinson. I didn't really think we had any weak links yesterday (including Murray who seemed to have pitched the players tactics, motivation, subs etc perfectly) so singling out any individuals would be difficult, but he was certainly a man of the match contender for me. Happy that it went to Dougie Hill. That man is a Trojan!

Great gesture to give McGurn the medal, but Robinson thoroughly deserved it after the game he had.

The performance the team gave was the one we knew they were capable of, but couldn't pull off, during the few 'dark' months at the start of the year. Let's keep the momentum and the confidence going!

I have to admit (much like the Hibs game) prior to yesterday's game, I really wasn't looking forward to it. So to win, in the manner which we did, was super sweet! However, I really started to believe before kick off that we could win it. McCoist made a massive error of judgement, in my opinion, calling the Rangers players in so early during their pre-match warm up. You could really see the Rovers players soaking up every moment before they went back in. I can't help but think it gave them an extra edge over the Rangers players.

Watching Hibs v Aberdeen on the telly, all those empty seats remind me of shortly after Baird's winner yesterday!

Even allowing for their reputation for leaving early I was genuinely astonished to see hundreds of them up and leave the minute Baird's shot hit the net.

Hilarious stuff.
