Brashy's Boots Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 1st half Tait thunderbolt. Mid to late 2nd half J Mac wonder save and Timmy thumps home the second on the subsequent breakaway. [emoji8] Edited to dd. Either that or the Hunchback scores an offside winner after a snoozfest 89 mins.1st part sounds awfy familiar... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would take a point too but we were quite a bit better than them last time, and even they admitted it. PS This might turn out like the ICT games, where we had the better of a home drawn game and were harried into submission at their place. I don't think so tho somehow this time.

Chubbychops Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Based on current form this will be a Rovers win. It's up to you guys now..... Open goal chaps... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rovers were absolutely the better team last time. You should have been at least 3 up before we scored. Our first was out of nothing and I'm surprised how much it shook you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovers_Lad Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Expectation levels lower than Dunfermline supporters so a draw would be fine 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamish's Passenger Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Only a few weeks ago, one or two Rovers fans were comparing this season to the Gary Locke season. Football’s a funny old game. This could be anything so I’ll plump for an entertaining/frustrating 2-2 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TxRover Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 4 hours ago, Broken Algorithms said: Hadn't even thought about this but I'd agree with that. Should be an interesting fixture either way. We've now got Kennedy, Vaughan, Abraham and King while we'll miss Hendry, Gozie and possibly Bene. Per JMcG, all three will miss it, plus maybe Matthews. After watching the highlights of the Dundee game, the connection between Kennedy and Abraham, for players with two practices under their belts together, was pretty sweet looking. It may well be that those two mesh perfectly, and Duku may be riding the pine a lot more going forward. Vaughan seems to be rounding into shape too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steakngravy Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 So the (alledged) big team boys are crapping their pants because the(alledged wee team are playing to their strengths) and are now rolling over so we can stroke their tummies. Get ta fcuk yer mingin townie lying barstewards. It's a game between two teams and at the end of the day the best team on the night will probably win. So good luck to you but I really hope you come second. -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not getting the logic that Raith were quite a bit better, scored twice from a set piece but outwith that they were limited to long range shots, Dow? Had the best chance of the game, for all the talk of Raith playing football they were very, very direct in the first half. Draw was the correct result. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
embow Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 If we somehow manage to prevail in this game are we allowed to shout out loud "Oui! Oui! Oui! Oh, Oui!" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALDERON Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 (edited) I thought over the 90 mins we were probably the better side, but the 2 quick fire goals swung the game and in the end could really have went either way. In the end was content enough with the point. A draw keeps us 2nd with a game in hand over Dunfermline. Would have bitten your arm off for that after the last derby. Certainly a winnable game for both sides though, hopefully a decent spectacle. Edited January 31, 2021 by CALDERON 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shandon Par Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Not too concerned here. Such is the way of the Craw we are now due to go on an eight game 1-0 winning streak. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
San Starko Rover Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 No idea what to expect this season we can be brilliant some games and not turn up in others, we’re scoring goals for fun this season but leaking them at the back and McManus always gets one against us. Pars are on a poor run at the moment which I guess should give us an edge. This will come down to who can control the midfield. I’m going to be optimistic and say we can nick this one so that’s a certain win for Dunfermline now. Win, lose or draw it’s not dull this season being a Raith fan and John has done a great job turning us around from the shambles of Locke, Hughes and Smith. It’s just a shame we can’t watch it from the stands. Rovers playing great football and Scotland qualify for the Euros and we’ve got to watch it on TV [emoji30] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think your support and enthusiasm for the Rovers is great but I can't help but think of soccerguy when I read some of your posts. As for the game, I'm well learned in not being confident that the Rovers will pick up a win when they may be favourites to do so. Hopefully form doesn't go out the window in this derby as per the overused cliché and we come back along the road having consolidated 2nd place. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
