They are a much better team imo. But I’m trying to stay positive. The run in has been awful. But we need a minor miracle. I really don't think Dumbarton are a better side than Raith, let alone a much better side. I appreciate you're all very down on Rovers' chances at the moment having utterly shat the bed from being 8 points clear, but from an objective point of view, I'd strongly fancy your chances of joining us in the Championship assuming we do win the title. Your home record is excellent, and no team will relish going to Stark's Park in such a high pressure game, let alone a Dumbarton side who have only been saved from automatic relegation by a laughably shite Brechin side. Dumbarton didn't register a single league goal in 2018 until the 13th of March, so nothing to fear there. It just seems to me that everything is set up for Lewis Vaughan to relegate Dumbarton a year after saving them... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raithie Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Don't Dumbarton have a fair few ex Rovers players some of which were part of our relegation squad last season? Mark Stewart, Craig Barr, Chris Johnston, Danny Handling and minus that lot there's ex players such as Dougie Hill, David Smith and Christina Nade there as well. If we did make it to the final I suppose it gives FF plenty players to try and wind up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hank Scorpio Posted April 9, 2018 Author Share Posted April 9, 2018 I’m pretty sure that wee fucking charlatan Chris Johnson got farmed out to Peterhead in January. He’ll be at Linlithgow if he’s lucky next year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broken Algorithms Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Chris Johnstone must be one of the most spineless players I've seen at Rovers. Definitely up there with the likes of Jordan Thompson in terms of ability to disappear. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grumswall Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Maybe he was a tax dodger as well The Spanish government could do without the funds going by their exploits so Messi just did the world a service really, but that's a discussion for another forum. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brashy's Boots Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Soooooooooooo is Barry Smith on a 1 or 2 year contract? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildrover Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 I think it is a 2 year contract, if so the board need to take a serious look at themselves, after the last disaster of an appointment a one year deal with the option of an extension would have been the prudent move. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beachbum Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 It's a 2 year contract, unfortunately. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

basher brash Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 (edited) Just a quick couple of points had a friend that attended the rovers hospitality against Albion Rovers , not a Rovers fan and rated the experience highly however his words on the game were how the hell can you watch that sh**e every week and who is your number 11 cos he’s Sh**e ( Barr) ironically one of his better games. Another friend who in fact is a Rovers fan but can’t make saturdays anymore attended Saturdays game as a one off same comment how the hell can you watch that sh**e every week and the most boring game he’s ever watched. I must be just ammune to the poor performances now but it’s evident now just how poorly we have been but unbelievably still 2nd top with a slim chance of being promoted Football Eh!
