Hamish's Passenger Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 2 minutes ago, Raith Against The Machine said: If I was affiliated to Dunfermline, I'd be doing everything possible to avoid talking about the football too, to be fair. We don’t have to. The Rovers fans have got it all covered on our behalf. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to McPake the only time players, staff and fans should be celebrating a win is if it clinches promotion or it's a cup final. What an absolute fanny. Cant wait to see the rage on his coupon tomorrow as he dissapears down the tunnel after yet another defeat. I think the Courier is probably more obsessed with our social media than the Pars players or staff tbh 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevoraith Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 (edited) 1 hour ago, Salvo Montalbano said: It's always been "we don't even hate you" as far as I've heard it, from the mid 2000s up til about 4 or 5 years ago when the young guys started a singing section in the North Stand when a few started the other version. Maybe I'm wrong and it started earlier than that, but "we don't even hate you" makes so much more sense. There’s clear video evidence on page 6 of pars fans belting out the sweary version in 2010…. You’re right the other version makes more sense but it’s quite amusing how many Pars fans are adamant it’s the pre-watershed version when I don’t think a single Rovers fan can recall hearing that Not really important though, it’s a good rivalry and I’m looking forward to a good atmosphere tomorrow whether you fucking hate us or don’t even hate us.

Aye, they'll definitely have brought it up, and not just answered a question put to them by a journalist. He doesn't say that either? "For what I’ve seen of the Raith stuff, if it gets them traction and gets them publicity then great for the football club. “I would just be pretty careful because this game’s got a horrible way of kicking you." "the best time to do it is if you’ve won the league or got promoted through the play-offs, which I know is very tough to do because I’ve done it. “Then, it’s great fun, for everybody involved. “I think if it was me I would be waiting until we had achieved something.” He's not saying fans shouldn't celebrate? He's still talking about the social media stuff and saying he'd wait to give it big licks until after you've won the title. Hardly ground breaking stuff.

Szamo's_Ammo Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 Pages of Dunfermline fans desperate to show how little they care about Raith Rovers. It almost makes me want Rovers to win. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keyser_soze Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 (edited) One chant I never EVER want to hear again, and yes I sang it myself back in the day - I'd rather be a P**i than a par, 40 odd years ago, even back then it was disgusting. Also no Norrie songs whatsoever, although to be fair they have been binned for the past few games. Edited March 8 by keyser_soze 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course McPake wont be giving it big licks and will just respectfully make his way down the tunnel if he pops his Fife Derby cherry tomorrow (aye right). Changed his tune from last season it seems when he was defending wild celebrations after his team won a league 1 game in November "The players will feel good, the fans will feel good standing in front of that.

CYBERSHED Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 Raith have owned the Pars so far this season. However, have a feeling Dunfermline will come away from this game with a point in a hard fought game. Prediction: 2-2 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ohnononowheredidRossgo Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 Who cares how serious James McPake takes social media? Onto the game feel we’ve got to win this one - tombola team selections next to stop and IM has to land on a more settled selection moving forward. Good crowd, good atmosphere and Vaughan hat-trick ta. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hadn’t seen the article, so assumed it was worse than this. So he was asked a question about it, said he thought it was great for their club but they should be careful because these things can come back to bite them. Quite a few Rovers fans on this thread have said exactly the same thing. Are they considered to be raging/rattled as well? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The correct answer from ANY manager or player: "We don't pay any attention to that. We concentrate on the football match." Actual pars striker: "I read it and feel it's childish" Actual pars manager: "I've seen it.... It is a bit of banter, but it wouldn’t be what we would do" Why are they just saying nothing at all? I'd say it has affected them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
