We surely can't have a black away kit this time? I'm trying to think, have we ever had a purple away kit? I vaguely remember the checkered away kit having purple in it? I've got a purple away top from goodness knows when. Possibly Matchwinner? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We tended to get beat in our home strip for most of that season as far as I can recall. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claudia Gentile Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 RE: Byrne I genuinely didn't know he was 31 years old. I'm sure he could have done a good job for a year not so sure I'd be handing out a 2 year contract though. I'm also not sure why Rovers seem so obsessed with Thistle at the moment? Most players probably have various clubs interested in them at this time of year? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It came back to bite them last season, and I’m sure it will again. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We lost it due to not holding onto leads or keep enough clean sheets. I don't think twitter can help with that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, no obviously not, but it did give everyone else the opportunity to go back previous posts and get it right up you. Which is basically all I was meaning. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There isn't a downside to it I suppose as long as its not malicious. A wee bit of catharsis for the opposition fans in the end 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly this What Twitter, Instagram, tik tok etc does help with though is increasing our brand awareness and attracting new and younger supporters. The link between our social media output and the more than 100% increase in home attendances can't be ignored. As long as its not malicious, the banter between teams is one of the main attractions of supporting a football club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuctifano Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 Noticed quite a few teams are showing the Euros on TV at their stadia (or at least the Scotland games) but we're not. Is it just the case that the Aitken suite isn't that a good a place to watch football or not enough demand / too many other options in Glasgow? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Aitken is long due a serious makeover .Nothing much going for it apart from proximity to ground on match day.Can't stand those big clunky,uncomfortable seats that look like electric chairs without the wiring,ancient and worn tables,slow moving cashless bar and bogs that look like something out of Just a Boys' game ....nah ,not for me . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure if the rumours were he was signing for someone else then Partick wouldn't have been mentioned. The fact I find Still Game funny and Raith have adapted the sketch is light hearted fun. It generates thousands of views which is great for a small club trying to build a bigger support. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all about hits, clicks comments etc.. what Raith Rovers have and still do is untouchable right now and everyone that comments just adds to our popularity. So we say thank you 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oneteaminglasgow Posted June 14 Share Posted June 14 That’s Ballantyne officially signed for Morton. Which is a bit of a blow, tbh. Big Waz at right back it is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Waz at right back it is. Either these wee diddy teams, Ayr and Morton are offering more money or they don't want to play for a team pushing for promotion. Not really a blow. I am sure Kris knows what he is doing. Edited June 14 by Highlandmagar 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
