stevoraith Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 Stomach complaint for Hamilton tonight apparently. Fingers crossed he’s fully fit for Saturday, we really do miss him when he’s not available. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SerieA Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 Did Hamilton not miss the last United game after calling off late the week of that game. Really hope he’s available for Saturday-could be the difference. Also hoping he’s not passed on his bug to others!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottydog Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 To all the fans of other clubs who say Rovers are just lucky to be scoring late in games to win games and that the luck will eventually run out, here's a wee bit of perspective. If something happens once or twice then yes that's a bit of luck, however if it's happening consistently then that's no longer lucky, because tbh that's not how luck works. Also, It appears every team knows what we do (and when we'll likely do it), yet they seem completely powerless to prevent it. From that point of view it's not lucky, it's just my team is doing things right and theirs aren't, end of! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R.R.FC Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 I think that’s 14 goals in the last 15 minutes of games this season. Only two (Smith vs Morton and Vaughan vs Inverness) weren’t scored or assisted by a substitute. The character and fitness of the team is outstanding but the real difference maker is the quality off the bench. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duncypoo Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 Getting pretty bored of all this winning tbh. Miss the arguments in here, and the tinfoil hats on twitter. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you add the cups, we get another 4 in that time. The perplexing thing is in League it’s 1 goal ‘46 to ‘75, then 14 goals after that…in the cups it’s goals in every ‘5 increment till ‘81, a break, and then 2 more between ‘86 and ‘90. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SerieA Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 I love these late goals but I would love a nice 2 nil win even more right now-Saturday please 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrpaddyx Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 I make that 7 away wins in a row in all competitions. I can’t remember such a good run of results in a long time. Hopefully the run won’t end on Saturday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
par-adise Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 Must be on for some sort of record here - I make that 5 injury time winners and you still haven't won by more than one goal in the league. This league is known for it's tight margins but that's taking it to the extreme. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MICMAC Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 After the last few seasons of conceding goals late on and losing games, it makes this season feel all that little bit sweeter when we score a late winner. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This league is known for it's tight margins but that's taking it to the extreme. Currently, in League, we have played 80% of the matches to a 1 goal result, 73% of the matches to a 1 goal victory. Having only a +10 GD with an 11-3-1 result summary is an insane line. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ro Sham Bo Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 This feels very much like I remember the 92/93 season. Not in the manner of victory because back then we did comfortable wins, but more the fact that every match you think this will be the one where we come apart, and it hasn't happened so far. Unfortunately for us, Dundee United look like being worthier foes than Killie and the Pars were that season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, the chances that this keeps happening are pretty slim. You'll probably just start scoring earlier. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raithie Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 Can imagine most opposition fans will be bricking it if the scores are level going into the last 10 minutes against us regardless if the last minute goals start to dry up. The seed has been planted. Not sure if that filters down to opposition players but I'd be surprised if it's not in the back of their minds. For the moment lets just enjoy the ride, we have been absolutely spoilt this season in terms of excitement that's for sure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't doubt for a second it will affect the opposition players while our players will always have the belief that they are still in a match even if a couple of goals down. It's a great place to be in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connor7 Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 New owners deserve a lot of credit. They have done a lot of good things since coming in. (Big home supports, have a team on the park that the fans love) Avoid defeat on Saturday…. And United may start to panic. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirJimmyofNic Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 I've never come across anything remotely like the run we've had so far with late goals, 1 goal winning margins and a team that never gives up, till the ref blows for FT (even the Nicholl ones), this team are exceptional as are everyone behind the scenes 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
