The New Raith Rovers Thread


Recommended Posts

Went along to the galleries last night, was good to hear some of Dalziel's stories.

The bit I found most interesting was him saying how he never saw eye to eye with Jimmy Nic when he first took over and would have been quite glad to see the back of him. Nicholl had dropped him and he wasn't best pleased.

Things apparently turned when they had a midweek game away to Montrose and Nicholl who was close to being shown the door restored Dalziel to the team, he scored two goals and didn't look back.

Nicholl wanted to swap Dalziel for Norrie McCathie ????, and there were Nicholl must go chants at the end of his 1st season.

I thought it made sense after making a dent in a bottle of red :lol:

Did your primary school never have stories of a ghost? Annabelle/Annabella was a story that later in my life I found out done the rounds at more than just your school. The usual version was some sort of playground death leaving her haunting one of the schools toilets.

Tedious link to Panthers was when I was younger everyone said it was a raving mass of homo-erotic rave cave. In later years I found out it was of course not.

God? that's more a personal choice.

Love that description of Panthers. I spent a fair bit of time in there when I lived in Kirkcaldy. It was a bit of a dive but it had a good atmosphere and there was always a nice smell of spliff in the air. Never noticed the homo-erotic stuff though :) .

Ha ha. I remember that story doing the rounds at Dunearn Primary back in the 80's.

A ghost in the primary school toilets? I don't recall my primary school, through in the West, having one of these. We just had your common or garden '70s beast types hanging about. No ghosts, though.

'Homo-erotic Rave Cave' - It's amazing the air of mystery a pub can generate by simply having some stairs leading into the premises.

But is there a God, or are you saying there only is if you believe? Who would win a fight: God or Santa?

I said in the Stirling thread we were due a dud cup draw. We've had a good time of it in the past few years so fair's fair, it's our turn to get an awful one.

We should get TV money which is the only saving grace. Getting pumped in front of 11,000 at Ibrox on a Sunday lunchtime. Romance of the Cup eh.
