Raith25 Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 You can't deny Dunfermline is a bigger club than us. More fans, better ground and a bigger name in Scottish football but doesn't change the fact that I feel we have a better squad and should win on Saturday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poet of the Macabre Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 Rovers fans may be the most fickle in Scottish football. A support full of fair weather, knickerwetters. You were all bitching and moaning when Locke got the job and now he's had one decent win you're giving it big licks? Of course if we win on Saturday he'll be a clown again.

Cannon Fodder Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 Pars are a bigger club, probably always have been. Never understood guys getting upset at the 'wee team' jibe. I quite like it. Even tried to start a 'We're just a wee team' chant when we were destroying them a few years back. Fell on deaf ears, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweaty Morph Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 You lot can say what you want, i just don't wash and you know it. This is about the level of #bants we are at, right?Anyhoo, the game itself. After the close season mockery surrounding Gary Locke's appointment, I'm pleased for him at the start we've made to the league campaign, but this will be the first real test. I predict a nervy, low scoring affair.1-0, just not sure which way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Varna Rover Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 LCFC are a wee team. But they are EPL champions. Size of support or ground etc doesnt make a team big. Its performance on the park that counts. In reality all teams in our division are wee teams so live with it guys and get back to talking about saturdays game.

CALDERON Posted August 16, 2016 Author Share Posted August 16, 2016 7 hours ago, TheMessiah said: How any Rovers fans can possibly claim to be even coming close to as big as Dunfermline is beyond me. When a team outnumbers you and you are at home, that's when you know that team is significantly bigger than you. It's akin to Hamilton claiming to be a bigger club than Hibs You have never seen your team beat one of the old firm in a national cup final, and you never will. Even the wee team managed that ffs No matter how many fans they bring, this generation of Dunfermline fans will never ever experience what Rovers fans did in the 90s. Might be a smaller club, but certainly more successful in my lifetime with regards to trophies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy85 Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 I'm genuinely staggered that the 'wee team' jibes produce the level of unadulterated seethe they do. It's staggering. Christ, it's even got Rovers fans trying to rub the League Cup in our face. The League fucking cup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were all bitching and moaning when Locke got the job 3 months ago. We've all been impressed with his first 3 months in charge though.. I honestly don't see the problem there?

Sheevedawg Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 What an absolute car crash of a thread. Can we get back to the game itself?Anyway, 3-1 to the mighty raith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregor147 Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 This is a bit like two bald guys fighting over a comb. Neither team are "big". The Old Firm are the only two "big" clubs in Scotland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
