CALDERON Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 As for the match, it's quite a sobering thought when you think that we are relying on Duggan and Buchanan to lead the line, and have a defence who are gifting goals. Whilst Dunfermline are struggling for goals, they won't have come up against a defence as bad as ours yet. I'm really up for the game but I think we will draw at best. We will definitely concede and don't think we have the fire power to score too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I expect the Rovers will be up for it due to the nature of the game, but I’d expect us to come out with the win. This is Fez territory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ro Sham Bo Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 If the Pars play to any sort of decent level they'll win comfortably by 2-3 goals. In general we concede far too many goals and without Nisbet I doubt that we have the firepower to pose much of a threat going forward. To win we'll need to play at the top of our game, hope for a few lucky breaks and hope the Pars have another off day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CallumPar Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Can’t afford to think that all we have to do is turn up, but if we play quite well, we should win. Be interesting to see who starts up front for us, it certainly won’t be anyone playing with confidence - which could make a big difference. We need to take some of our chances and I’m not sure who we have that can do that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now we’re on the day of the game i’m remembering that we’re a League 1 team with a ropey defence and poor options up front. Can we win the midfield battle? Can we push Vaughan forward a bit and get him scoring the goals? Will Dingwall or Armstrong make a difference? Can we cut out the regular self-inflicted disastrous defending? We’ll find out today. Hopefully we can make a game of it. I’m also really up for the game. These are the real Fife derby games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raith Against The Machine Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Buchanan or Duggan in the starting line-up, please, but not both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chubbychops Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Our centre midfield 3 are by far the strongest area in our team. Can't see Raith dominating them. It's more the fact that we also give away daft goals and are toothless. That was even when Keena was here. Now he's gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is Crawford and Shield's first game after having a full week to work with the players. Be interesting to see how we line up formation wise as most of the personnel picks itself.

Raith Against The Machine Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Do you still have that right back who plays in the opposition's half and can't defend for shit?If we're going to win this, it's likely to come from our play out wide.

Scary Bear Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Hopefully the headline is ‘Raith Rovers 3 v 0 Dunfermline: Vaughan and Dingwall run riot.’ Stevie Crawford seen crying in the toilet and cursing the day he left the Rovers. Unconfirmed reports that Crawford is the mystery toilet-flooder of Old Dunfermline town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baillieinleeds Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 In all seriousness Dunfermline will win this, depends which Rovers team turns up. We are defensively naive and Davo will be aiming daggers at Thomson so you can count on him not doing much. And the front pairing doesn’t fill me with confidence. Hopefully we keep it respectable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
