SlipperyP Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 The new league campaign starts on Saturday, sorry if one of the Rose fans wanted to start their first ever league match thread with the big boys. I was a little bored so, fired in. Not read much of the Roses new signings, I'm sure they have made a few. However, their tails will be up in what I expect a large crown behind them. Forfar have made a few signings, as of note (in the cups & friendlies), we are a team still looking for a wee bit of glue to get us playing as a team. Both teams have been scoring, Forfar have been very leaking at the back. Hope it's a great game for everyone. 1-3 Forfar. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RateofKnots Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 I feel a little more positive after the Stranraer game on the scoring goals front, though the concern would be the need to score 2 or 3 goals to win on a regular basis because of defensive fragility. I'll say 1-1. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fafc1885 Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 I unfortunately don’t feel as positive as the two above. A grim pre-season and League Cup campaign hasn’t done much to elevate my hopes for the new season. Even if a number of players from last season have gone, just six wins out of 26 competitive games since Boxing Day, or one in the last ten, surely means there is pressure on Irvine to get it right from the get go this season. His ability to make us look like two different teams in either half is frustrating. We go from looking like a competent team in the first half to not being interested in scoring in the second. I would like us to win, however I can’t help but feel Bonnyrigg will win this 3-1. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO, the only way he leaves is of his own accord. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bravehearts dad Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 So the day has finally arrived and The Rose make their debut in SPFL 2. It’s a bright breezy day in downtown Bonnyrigg. The fans have been well entertained the last few seasons on our journey and I expect a good game today. There will be a decent crowd at NDP. I along with many others are excited about today and the season ahead. C’mon The Rose 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
