McGuigan1978 Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 Aye, lost 2-0 to Ayr in 2021, Boxing Day 2020 we pumped Alloa 5-2, and before that the last one was 2011. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, that was an absolutely appaling performance as well. Don't think we had a shot on target. Probably began the rot that would lead into the Goodwillie debacle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’re here at a time of high spirits for the festive season everyone excited for Christmas , coupled with al real feel good factor at the club not seen in years and you have to mention THAT NAME . The one positive is how much has changed for the better since that debacle that could have sunk our club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CALDERON Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 Going down to the Arbroath game, I was as confident as I've been in some time watching the Rovers - and we put in our worst performance of the season. Difficult to know what to expect, for the first time this season there's real expectation on us now, especially with Utd playing at the same time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIT THE CHANNEL Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 Aye, it will be interesting to see how we handle now being properly ahead. Brings a different type of pressure and hope the crowd can stay patient if need be (its likely DU will be ahead and in cruise control nice and early, too). Regardless, buzzing for the game. Its absolutely brilliant watching this Rovers team and canny wait for some pre game pints with the boys. C'mon min! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cataclysmically shit decision making? Absolutely. Fan response? One of the most successful fan movements you'll see in Scottish football. Our supporters should never take shame in the fact that they raised the bar to ensure that he was told not to come back within a working week. 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty other fans gave us stick and some still do, but ultimately it was the fans that forced the clubs hand. WE stood our ground and didn’t accept the signing. Our fans deserve praise for what we done 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I posted here at the time that I felt sorry for the Rovers support and anyone point scoring should look inwardly to what they would do if their club decided to sign him. On a far lesser extent, we had to put up with the fallout of a sponsor giving us a wedge of cash while having topless models promoting the club and a Trump loving Chairman who loved getting it up lefty’s.

It's actually at the cringe stage seing the "rape rovers" shtick for me, which I'd assume you see a bit more on the podcasts twitter account etc. It's always the people who couldn't point to Raith on a map saying it also... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You see it all. I can completely understand why our fans are sick of discussing the matter. On social media in particular it's pretty much a yardstick of how thick someone is. You'll still get people referring to Val McDermid on twitter. More recently, there was a Dunfermline fan who fired up three photos of Goodwillie in quick succession simply because the preview of our regular 'Inside Matchday' had a close up of one of their fans losing the rag in the preview clip. One of the key pillars of the club right now is 'bettering the town of Kirkcaldy'. It's been visible in the community foundation in particular. Ian Murray has alluded to it in a few of his interviews. The club has moved forwards leaps and bounds since the decisions made on 31st January 2022. Andrew Barrowman said after last weekend that "this isn't a run of form - this is a movement" and that will probably resonate quite a lot within our support. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beachbum Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 We haven't had back to back clean sheets in the league this season so 1-0 will do for me tonight with Saturday's team, injuries permitting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richey Edwards Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 Was having a cup of tea and thinking of people who have played for or managed both clubs. So far I have: Gordon Dalziel David Craig John Hughes Ludovic Roy Kevin Cuthbert Dario Zanatta Liam Buchanan Gareth Wardlaw Ryan Borris Frankie Musonda Eddie Annand Danny Lennon Willie Lyle Kevin Nisbet Varying degrees of success there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
