The New Raith Rovers Thread

Provided that the pricing is reasonable (what will it be? A tenner or something?) think 500ish is a good shout.

That's what I was thinking. Anything between £8 - £12 would be fine and hopefully entice a decent amount through.

If our tie against Bo'Ness is anything to go by you'll win comfortably and Nade will face some unsavoury abuse from the natives. Stuff youd expect to hear in the 70s.

Poor move on their part if the case. Nade holds grudges and doesn't let them go easily. In 4 years time he could be charging at their fans taps aff again.

Great draw for us. One of the closest draws we could of got with living in Edinburgh and another park to mark off the list. Like to see Callachan and Vaughan get a run out for it

Yep, can only be happy with that draw. Sure the game won't be easy at all mind you.

We took about 550 to East Stirling at the same stage last season so anything less than that would be a disappointment I think. Should be a good day.

You will have no such issues at Linlithgow - the Rovers fans who travel will be made most welcome around Linlithgow in our fine hostelries. We are very much a family club and attract a wide range of ages - with loads of kids from the community club which we are part of proudly wearing their Rose strips.

Bo'ness are a poor example especially in bigger games attracting a ned element who let them down constantly much to their normal supports embarrassment.

Looking forward to having a go at decent opposition and who knows?

By no means - it's a winnable tie for Linlithgow, which is why it's such a good draw.

Disagree here. I wouldn't let any of them in. They are an entirely separate organisation with their own rules and their own Scottish cup.

What of it? When you see the excitement generated by the qualifying and early rounds of the cup down south it's a pity we don't have a competition that all Scottish clubs can enter. They'd have a lot to add, so I'm not worried if they have their own cup too. (Just as most leagues down south do, in addition to the FA Trophy and FA Vase and the like.)

Yes but all of those clubs in England are governed by the FA. Junior clubs have their own SJFA, if they want to join our cup competitions they can join our system.

Can we enter the Scottish junior cup?

Linlithgow are are in the cup due to being an SFA affiliate member and not through winning the league or junior cup.

The juniors that have been in the cup over the last few years seem to have brought bigger crowds to the early rounds and helped generate more publicity
