The New Raith Rovers Thread


Recommended Posts

Two guys who couldn't get a game with Dumbarton - wow !!

In the case of Petrie yes but Megginson played pretty regularly for us.

Last year I would've been gutted to lose Mitch, this year not so much. In his first season with us he was superb, brimming full of confidence and scoring a fair whack. Last season he was pretty hopeless but I'm willing to put that down to him being a victim of Murray's shite tactics. It was very frustrating watching him last season but he looked pretty low on confidence.

I do however hope his shite form continues. Nothing against the guy but for purely selfish reasons. I see Raith as one of the teams we can compete with in the league and an in form Megginson can do some damage when he feels like it.

Did he not sign a new 1 year contract with the sons only last month???

He agreed a deal before Murray left but never actually signed.

The offer is still on the table and he appears to be weighing up his options. It's rumoured St Mirren have offered him a deal as well but Murray has been in the paper today saying that he wont be raiding us for players because their wage with us combined with their wage outside football can't be matched by them.

So there's still a chance that he can be on his way as well then..?

There is a chance but I'd guess it would need to be a pretty substantial offer to tempt him. He has a few things on the go outside of football I think so the part-time wage (will be our top earner no doubt) plus his job salary will probably be beyond the likes of yourselves and from what Murray's moaning about I'd guess St Mirren as well.

If he does go I reckon it will be St Mirren but I'm not convinced that would be a good move for him.

I wonder if he could come part time? I'd imagine being a west coast lad the travel is far preferable to go to Dumbarton. Plus, I'd imagine we've probably completed our midfield either way.

Still think we're a winger-as-cover short in midfield. This has tended to be a loan player though.

From what I hear he doesn't need to give up his other work to go full time it's pretty flexible

If he was any good he'd have played. Meant good enough

The article on the website about Megginson signing also states that we hope to have a new central defender signing next week.

I thought I recognised Christian Patino in the Kittys photos from last night.

I always remember him and Marti. Hugo Prest walking down Kirkcaldy High Street looking like they'd just walked off a 70's porn set.
