The New Raith Rovers Thread


Recommended Posts

Watching this team start to gel is like watching a work in progress. Not saying McKinnon is some kind of genius or artist putting together a potential masterpiece (or is he ^_^ ) but I'm starting to think that with a strategic signing (or 2) added to the personnel we have already we could be a bit of a surprise package this season.

Trying hard to to get too caught up and carried away with what's happening as over the years I've all too often seen us start well in August only to tail off in September and then bomb thereafter, but this squad has some real merit to it.

Of course it could just be the start of a repeat of the norm for us, a good first quarter as teams struggle to get to grips with new personnel before they suss us out then totally nullify what we do.

Confirmation Vaughan has ruptured his anterior cruciate ligament and will miss the most of the season. Truly gutted for the lad. He was a diamond at the end of last season in an team with very little footballing capability. All the best to him in his recovery.

He will struggle to even play this season, gutting for the boy.

Whats the consensus on this, he looked a real player last 2 games v us that he played in,will it have a huge effect on your push for the play offs or is there enough qaulity uptop for you guys to cope?Gutter for him , hopefully he will be the same type of performer and come back from it even stronger.

It will be a massive loss and will make the reaching the promotion playoffs a bit harder as I reckon this was his season to shine..

We have Mark Stewart, Mitch Megginson and Craig Wighton up front with Lawrence shankland rumoured to be joining as well. They 4 as well as Craigen, Callachan, Anderson and McCord with the CB's chipping in with a few each should score plenty of goals. I might just be telling myself this to stop me greetin' though..

I can assure you, shankland isn't joining Raith.
