Scary Bear Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 Wouldn't be keen to see davo back to be honest. We need a break from those days, plus imagine Callachan being dropped for davo - that would be criminal! We'd have some work rate in the centre of midfield with Davo and Callachan. Not sure about the creativity. Might have to leave that to the wide midfielders. I think that pairing would be capable of winning the midfield battle. Davo can also play centre half which is a bonus when we are running with a small squad. I could see the logic behind re-signing Davo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually think Callachan is a pretty decent attacking midfielder, gets forward, moves beyond the striker when he can, keeps the ball moving - that's as creative as you can probably hope for. Wouldn't have Davo back, we need a sitting midfielder to complement Callachan, someone who has decent positional sense and is good at reading the game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scary Bear Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 (edited) I actually think Callachan is a pretty decent attacking midfielder, gets forward, moves beyond the striker when he can, keeps the ball moving - that's as creative as you can probably hope for. Wouldn't have Davo back, we need a sitting midfielder to complement Callachan, someone who has decent positional sense and is good at reading the game. In terms of creativity, I'm thinking more in terms of the mythical midfield general. He does exist, by the way, he just rarely, if ever, plays for Raith Rovers. Also, this mythical beast mainly has issues with consistency, just as wingers do. I'm thinking of the likes of Paul McStay, although last time I saw him he was carrying a few extra pounds, so I'm not suggesting he's a potential signing.Did we have a sitting midfielder back when we were good? From memory that was the days of the centre half and sweeper. We probably did, but they usually don't get the recognition. Maybe Davo's positional sense has improved in his time at Dundee. Doubt it, but you never know. Edited May 15, 2015 by Scary Bear 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MC_Lachlan Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 I'm desperate for a return for our Navy Blue strips. Is it still Puma? I quite enjoy our white strips. Happy for them to stay that way for a wee while yet. Is it confirmed if we're keeping our Remember green&black strip? I missed out on buying one first time around and I really want one, nae sizes left for a skinny lanky p***k like me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brashy's Boots Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 Definitely getting a new home strip - no idea what colour. Definitely keeping McCrae's strip for another season. Was discussed at the AGM couple of months back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raithie Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 Our away top is dark therefore it's a stick on we'll a lighter home top. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1RonnieCoyle Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 our new home strip will be white and will be for 2 years.. however for its second year it will become our away strip With a New home Strip next summer. This was brought up by the club last summer, the club had agreed that it wasnt Fair For Fans to pay for two strips every summer and also that if the club were only getting 1 new strip every season instead of 2 then we would be garunteed these strips for summer holidays, full range of sizes and a larger amount of stock. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottydog Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 20 goals a season striker is here. The accompanying picture should carry the heading; "Tiny Raith striker leaps into the arms of giant Hibs goalkeeper!" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazzle Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 I despise the white strip, it just doesn't feel like a Rovers top to me, least we're keeping the remember top though, our best since the half and half I'd say. The club is going to have to start selling snapbacks or something so I can buy something in the summer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raith Against The Machine Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 I'm a big fan of all white. I'd go so far as to say I'd like to see it become 'our' colour, with either the 'twa hoops' or just plain navy piping. I'd also like to see us release some utterly mental accessories next season. Snapbacks should just be the beginning. On a more serious note, that new retro shirt that the Pars have released is a great idea. Pick the right shirt, and get the quality right, and you'll sell a bundle. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrpaddyx Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 I not a fan of the white top. Sooner we are back in a predominantly blue strip the better. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pub car king Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 Our merchandising is poor especially online. They seem to sell out of everything by October and then that's it nothing until the following August. If the plan was to keep the remember top for 2 seasons why haven't they restocked it many people are still after one including fans of other clubs yet normal sizes have been sold out for at least 6 months. Also why don't we sell more cheap wee bits and pieces like water bottles pencil cases back packs etc would be cheap enough to produce locally or puma should have an odd the shelf effort. As for the retro tops toffs are doing a load of bukta re issues from the 70s which might be a goer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geordie_Munrover Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Hello, long term lurker here. The new home kit will be navy blue with white sleeves.

Mon the Raiths where you getting this from? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
