renton Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 I kinda like the strip to be honest would have preferred white shorts though. I suspect the 'official' unveiling on the site might have been delayed in order to parade a newly signed Marvin Andrews which, day by day, seems more unlikely..... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raith Against The Machine Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 I kinda like the strip to be honest would have preferred white shorts though. I suspect the 'official' unveiling on the site might have been delayed in order to parade a newly signed Marvin Andrews which, day by day, seems more unlikely..... On the contrary, I think the longer it goes on the better it is for us. Frankly, no other club is going to just wait about for him the way that we are. He's a risk for any club to take on, and a greater perceived risk by those who didn't see every game he played for us last season, so nobody's going to give him ages to think about it. I think he's been a free agent open to offers for long enough now for any club to register an interest, make an offer, and then give up on him because he's taking too long. Basically, I think he's exhausted any other options that were present (if there were any, I haven't seen one iota of evidence that suggests he's wanted by any other team). I know it means that Raith Rovers are effectively his bitch, but I don't particularly care. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numbers Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 (edited) The one scenario you have not mentioned Dunc. He may hang up his boots, and of that there is a distinct possibility. Edited July 6, 2009 by Numbers 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raith Against The Machine Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 I don't think so. He enjoys playing for T&T too much. Unless he was just striving for that 100 cap milestone, but I can't see it. He still plays football with a smile on his face, I don't think he'd retire before returning to Stark's. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raith Against The Machine Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 FanTalk hits new highs That is honestly one of the best posts I've ever read on the Internet. Read it while it's hot, Admin will have it whipped away soon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoss Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Quality. Do mods on fantalk not put up with such behaviour then? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raith Against The Machine Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Quality.Do mods on fantalk not put up with such behaviour then? It'll be gone soon, and it'll be replaced by some red text that says "Personal insults will not be tolerated on FanTalk. Admin" and that'll be it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hank Scorpio Posted July 6, 2009 Author Share Posted July 6, 2009 FanTalk is a fucking joke. The modding on it is ridiculous. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy85 Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 (edited) And I thought p&b was a bit strict. Dafc.Net is too strict also. Dare to criticise the club and your post will be deleted. Somebody dared to take the piss out of the guy who does the live text updates yesterday and one of the mods threatend to withdraw the service for next season.

Yoss Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 That wasn't in any way a complaint about p&b, in case any mods thought otherwise, quite happy with it as it is. There's another site where I have mod powers but I've almost never had to use them, you can call as many people as many things as you like. (Granted it's a site with a smaller throughput and there are rarely any problems anyway.) Is Dafc.net independent or is it linked to the club? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Napolean Dynamite Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 My personal favourite is the transfer rumours page. "my mate phoned me and told me its a done deal. the whole 94/95 team have all been signed up" and if Tam doesnt get his creative midfielder this season I really fear for his sanity. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GordieBoy80 Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Is Dafc.net independent or is it linked to the club? It's not an official site but it is very closely linked to the club 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raith Against The Machine Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 It's not an official site but it is very closely linked to the club FanTalk is exactly the same. It was official, then unofficial with a different name, then back to official with the old name, now it's unofficial with the same name. At all times it has had exactly the same Admin and Mods, with all the same layouts and everything. Except, bizarrely, in the last change, almost all of the decent posters disappeared, and were replaced by semi-literate marsupials. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neebur Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Dunc:I also realise that it's the flavour of the month to slag off the website, and the club, but they're really missed a trick here. ACA are already selling the shirts in store before we've seen so much as a picture of it on the official website. There should've been a notice up yesterday saying that the shirts were on sale in the Club Shop. As a result, ACA are going to benefit from everyone who wants to buy the shirt on its release, and the club lose out on whatever cut ACA are taking. ACA ARE the official Raith shop ... so what they sell is on behalf of the club and with the club'sblessing and full agreement. Rovers now have a High St presence they haven't had for years which can only be a good thing. The fact they're merchandising is based within a bona fide sports shop used by clubs across the region is surely another plus. It's not a sports shop versus club shop scenario -- in fact, it's the complete opposite. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
