Taking Dundee out the equation because that’s obviously a bit different for us seeing as it’s so local and a ‘derby’ (I know it’s not but you know what I mean) Cannot wait for my train in a couple hour Dundee might not be your “derby” but it’s a pretty decent substitute with no other Angus teams in the division. Without the Pars, Falkirk or East Fife we’ve severely lacked any kind of derby to look forward to this season. Partick for some reason has never been one of my favourite away days and I don’t understand why, it’s Glasgow, their fans are a decent bunch and it’s easy to get to. I think it must be their terrifying mascot. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually think Arbroath will be fine even if we beat them. They’ve got better goal difference and I just don’t think Accies will win more than 3 points. As for Cove they’ve already chucked it. We have Cove and Hamilton both to play at Gayfield after this and dunno if that is currently a blessing or a curse cause we've been awful at Gayfield. But there has been a big improvement. Banks, Balde, Hetherington and Dow have been solid additions. Adarkwa and El Mhanni also contributed and look dangerous in very patchy sporadic spells but they’ve made a difference. Olusanya and Komolafe not so much however no matter how hard a time Olusanya has got from our fans without his last minute equaliser at Cove we could’ve went 7 points behind and could’ve potentially been doomed that day.

I hope Arbroath stay up, but we beat them today and they secure survival either on the last day or, better still, against Falkirk in the playoffs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledLichtie Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 If Raith approach this like a footballing side, then I think we have a chance, as we are currently well set up against teams like that. When teams come to attack and play us off the pitch, we are in our element. That's what went wrong against Inverness, they came out in full clash of the dinosaurs mode, and we don't play so well against that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R.R.FC Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 I’d be surprised if Arbroath don’t win, I also expect at least one of their goals to be from a set piece. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely. An Arbroath supporting pal of mine said last night that they're playing much better than earlier in the season, but he wasn't sure where the goals would come from. To which I replied 'From a set piece'. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, you could pick out any of your fans in the crowd to take a set piece and we'll still offer up a free header at goal from it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scary Bear Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 This game has the feel of the times at the end of the season under Grant Murray where we would lose 1-0 at Starks to the likes of Cowdenbeath. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like McGill at left back with Dick in the middle with Nolan, based on the warmup anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raith Against The Machine Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 McGill at left back is... intriguing. He's been a useful pick up for the last couple of months based on utility alone. He's been solid at right back and a couple of roles in the midfield, so fingers crossed for more of the same. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
