ADMO Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 When did we become the new Arsenal ? Im not at all blaming management for our injuries problems, but now Perry is off injured to ... 1/2 of the team is on the sideline injured !! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonicsco Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Maybe we not as bad as we think. Currently 2nd in leauge at this time and Falkirk already 3-0 down to hearts. So maybe we better. Lol 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael W Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Maybe, but three of our first four have been against the part time teams. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
San Starko Rover Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Difficult to tell until we get our full team out but we are already crippled by injuries which is really worrying 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael W Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Can only hope those picked up aren't long term. We k ow Barr is out for a while, not much known about Hill and now Perry is out. I'm very much unconvinced with Perry, but his absence leaves us with Laurie and Laurie only. It's s bit less urgent elsewhere. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonicsco Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Should of got big marv in on a temp basis. See he scored today on his debut. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonicsco Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 On a serious note anyone know why smith has left ? Know he was only only part time but I hope they bring in someone with experience and a good coach and not just promote Ellis. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zen Archer (Raconteur) Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 The guys looked the part in the RemembeR strip, a great debut. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donny86 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Has anyone else noticed we always concede when Fox goes off? Pars, Dumbarton and again today, maybe he holds the shape more than people realise 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADMO Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Happy at that ... I always said i was very much in the boat to give Murray a chance if we indeed beat Dumbarton, Alloa and Cowdung, even if it did mean losing to Hearts and Rangers (Although thats not actually happened yet obviously: I'd actually be hoping we can get riled up this time around and perhaps steal something !) .... As disappointing as the Cup games have been (Dunf/Dundee) and that battering to Hearts, we are winning the league games we should be and can now hopefully focus on the league only ... Still wont get carried away as the bigger picture still doesnt look great E.G 9 wins in 35 or something, but its a step in the right direction ... Lets hope this time we build on this, starting Vs Gers ! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Promoting Ellis would be a major blunder though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raith Against The Machine Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 The goal today was a bit of a freak due to Moon slipping.You could argue that Fox would've been in that area of the park to cover. It's an interesting wee pattern, we'll see how it plays out over the rest of the season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enigma Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Getting rid of part of the management team can't be a bad thing. Promoting Ellis would be a major blunder though. Quite agree. A tactically knowledgeable elder statesman type, if such a likely candidate exists please. Knowing Rovers a promotion for Ellis is exactly what will happen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turboshandy Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 The Party line. http://www.raithrovers.net/16052/assistant-manager-and-head-of-youth-academy-resign.htm While his reasons are entirely plausible, and most likely why he's resigned, the sceptic in me thinks there's more to it. It's important for Grant to get an experienced number two in to aid his development as a manager. Maybe getting a new assistant in, with a different outlook on the game and new ideas could be the making of him as a manager. I won't hold my breath, though.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALDERON Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 I always thought that perhaps Smith just gave us too much continuity from the Mcglynn days. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hank Scorpio Posted August 31, 2014 Author Share Posted August 31, 2014 Paul Smith runs a business called Stirling Fibre with his step-father which consumes most of his time through the week and from which he makes most of his money, the football was something he continued purely for the fun of it. We are looking to go back fully full-time obviously, and he can't make that commitment. That's really all there is to it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllanJM Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Terry Butcher, Jimmy Calderwood? Both fit the bill in terms of experience. Would we want them? Would the come to us as a number 2? Not seriously suggesting them just starting to throw some names out there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
