Raith Rovers v Dunfermline Athletic


Recommended Posts

Generally the Dunfermline fans on P&B are a fairly reasonable lot, so I believed what I was reading about how poor Dunfermline are, but I wasn't expecting it to be quite so apparent. They've been abysmal. Incredibly fortunate to have a goal to their name, because they've been chasing shadows from whistle to whistle. 

The first goal is incredible. It's what we threatened to do a few times at the beginning of the season, but never looked quite this fluent. Some of the passing and movement had been phenomenal. 

The defending for the Rovers second goal just sums it up. The defenders seem to be holding two separate offside lines, but neither of those lines are taking into account the position of the ball. Vaughan is well onside and he's never going to miss from there. 

As for the second goal... dearie me. I have absolutely no idea what OFW is thinking about. There's absolutely no mitigation for that. He can see it the whole way. He should be able to throw his hat on it. 

It'll take the most miraculous of turnarounds for Dunfermline to get anything here. I look forward to going fucking tonto and smashing the telly as it happens.

Problem no. Removing him for someone that would currently make an impact or get involved would be a smart move.


Wighton has looked like our only decent outlet up front since coming in. I’ll be fair to O’Hara, he done well against Dundee and deserves to start. He looks decent when we play to our strengths.

But this is beyond the players now. The management are just stinking the club out and letting the players down. It’s got to be curtains after tonight.

Vaughan makes the world
of difference to our attacking movement. Hopefully this is him fully fit and confident, in perfect timing for the play off run in.

The difference that Vaughan and Gullan make both pressuring and moving is immense over Duku and/or Ugwu. This is what we’ve been missing, but is Vaughan good for the 90 today, and if he has to be subbed, what happens then?

Could Dunfermline fans tell me why Thomas and McManus are not starting games? 

Wighton, O'Hara and Henderson are playing like 3 individuals. 

McManus is out of form and Thomas should be playing ahead of F.Murray

Excellent first 45 from us, in complete control and deservedly a couple of goals ahead. Would expect a reaction from Dunfermline second half, was glad to see Wilson on the bench, he dominated the game at EEP. I’d expect to see him soon.

More of the same from us please but I have been watching the Rovers too long to think this is over. Dunfermline will be much improved and hard for us to maintain that tempo second half.  Would bite your hand off for 3-2 at full time right now.
