The New Raith Rovers Thread

[Raith Against The Machine]

Aidan Connolly with the headed assist for the first. Phenomenal aerial prowess.

The fact the Sam Stanton was a free signing in January is mental. Genuinely a class above, can only imagine contract talks are ongoing and fingers crossed we get some new soon.

I believe James McPake has been in touch with Dundee asking them to cup-tie Shaun Bryne on Friday.

Pretty pathetic if our old pal Drysdale caves and gives into the request, although you wouldn’t expect anything less from him.

Really hope this is getting sorted.

I don't think that's possible. The terms of the loan will have already been agreed when he signed for us. Can't be a case that Dundee can chop and change the agreement unless they decide to recall him.

Highly dubious it’s RaithTV on the stick, unless they are tunneling out via a VPN and loading an international subscription.

The Pixelott feed is generally locatable via a Firestick.

Definitely Raith TV as seen a few games this season (can't make games due to health issues). Sometimes have to search. Today found Pars v ICT under heading Ayr v Queens Park and also see Morton v Airdrie is under Falkirk v Dundee Utd!!

About like you’d expect with an inexperienced young player. Position was a bit suspect now and then, missed a few assignments, showed good ball skills and was look not particularly intimidated. Really didn’t face too much of a concerted push as the Accies were down to 10 within 8 minutes of Hannah coming on. Reminded me a lot of Masson’s early efforts, decently composed and needing some coaching, but Dick was working him through the game. Masson looked much more composed than his last start (but had to come off at the half for an early flaring niggle) so with Corr coming back and Masson looking capable, I’m not sure the management team will be looking to add another CB unless Watson is much worse than we thought.

Meanwhile, any idea where McGill was tonight? If Masson is now a bit questionable for the Pars match, McGill becomes a much more important piece.

Thanks Tx, could be illness with McGill but not heard anything, I fear Watson will be out for a while yet , meant to be a week and been nearly 2 months now , will take him time to get back up to speed when back

Watsons out for another 4-6 weeks.

[pub car king]

Im fairly sure Watson had injury issues at Ross County. 

I'll like to think Potter is already on the case as we were taking a gamble in August sticking with what we had.

If it was true and have to say imo unlikely Dundee cant cup tie Byrne if they feel like it ,it would have to be in the agree loan deal.They could ask the club not to play him but we would be well within our rights to tell them to spin.We played Callum Booth against Hibs whilst on loan to us when it was alleged we were asked not to

If ED had any influence at Dundee Byrne would not be on loan to us if he bears so much of a grudge against us

It could well be the case that Dundee don't want Byrne cup tied, but, as said above, it wouldn't be McPake or Drysdale's decision.

Drysdale doesn't have anything like the clout at Dundee that he had at Rovers. He's not the CEO at Dundee.
