RAITHROVERS84 Posted Saturday at 17:01 Share Posted Saturday at 17:01 A clinical team would’ve went in at half time 3 nil up and had the 3 points secured. Some cracking games in the top division today had me thinking I’ve completely forgot the feeling of a euphoric victory. The late winners this time last season feel like a lifetime ago. I don’t think we’ll be in a relegation fight but our season truly is drifting into nothingness. Tempo wasn’t there in the second half but Jack…how do you miss pal Horrible deflection for the QP goal however justified simply based on the fact that Rudden should never have been allowed to get the cross in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hank Scorpio Posted Saturday at 17:17 Share Posted Saturday at 17:17 Easton daft to get sent off for dissent but the decision to award Queen’s Park a free kick right before it was mind boggling, genuinely scratching your head stuff, nae wonder Easton was annoyed. Referee was f**king abysmal the entire game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CountryBumpkin Posted Saturday at 17:46 Share Posted Saturday at 17:46 1 hour ago, TxRover said: Perplexed by that assessment. Easton isn’t what this team needs right now, with his (self-admitted) somewhat selfish nature. We need to get more opportunities from the kinds of play that see Dylan try to beat two or three people, and nearly always lose the ball. Once the team starts scoring a bit, then that play is more acceptable. I’m gonna say losing Dylan next week may strengthen us, and I’d like to see him move to the bench for a couple of matches. I think he’s a good player and has great talent, but sometimes he’s just not the right player, and during this trying time, I’m looking for a passer like Sam and Scott rather than a dazzler like Dylan. Here the other question, who offers more, Dabo or Stevenson? If we’re playing four back, I’d like to see either Freeman or Dick in for one of them to buck up the defending a bit…and shockingly I’d say the answer is Dick for Stevenson right now. Playing Stevenson hasn’t paid off for us this season (yet), doesn’t make it his fault, but we’ve got to switch up something, and Dabo has certainly looked dangerous. Respectfully, if you think Brown is the sort of passer that can create chances, I'm registering your whole opinion null and void. Easton is absolutely needed in games like today, instrumental in the goal, created space for Hamilton and Jamieson to get in behind and linked up a disjointed midfield and attack well for the most part. Dissent at the end (still wasn't a foul) aside, he was excellent again today. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

embow Posted Saturday at 18:10 Share Posted Saturday at 18:10 Manager assures everyone that things will definitely be better as the season progresses. The breaks will apparently come.

Spider1975 Posted Saturday at 18:15 Share Posted Saturday at 18:15 Yet another Rovers QP game finishes with less than 22 on the pitch, thankfully this time it was Easton going....just a shame it hadn't been sooner. That all said, given the chances it really should have been a comfortable win for Rovers. Better second half from QP once we moved Longridge into the centre...Evans looked pretty good when he came on too. Given the amount of balls that we managed to flash across the goal, it's a real shame that we don't have a tall striker to be there to knock them in once in a while! Despite that thought Rudden led the line well today - not as quick to fall over as he has been in other matches I've watched him 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not having this from a Raith fan - you guys have been shocking for this in recent years, the diving from Easton etc. last season in particular was pathetic. Comfortably the worst for it in the league. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you in the fact that Easton is frustrating, much like Nacho Novo when he played for us, infuriating for away fans but great when he plays for your team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup. Good news for him [Easton] is that when he's finally hung up his boots all those pratt falls and over-exaggerated faux incredulous protests will see him getting plenty of offers to tread the boards on stage....most likely around Christmas time. Much as though I enjoyed his red card today, it still doesn't beat him giving away the penalty that got us promoted from L1 a few years back....that was deeelish! Obviously wouldn't be saying any of this had be been, or if he ever becomes employed by us. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was very clear from the away end that the ref booked him twice within about 5 seconds. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FitbaSupporter Posted Saturday at 18:57 Share Posted Saturday at 18:57 Just same old same old. Can’t finish and can’t hold a lead. Unlucky with the deflection but if you can’t put teams away then these things will keep happening. Two cards for dissent so that you now miss a game is embarrassing. On the plus side, great to see Stanton back and Dabo is a definite upgrade on Freeman. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What’s noticeable in this table though, for QP, is all those points and only +2 goals. From what was on view last Friday at Annan though it looks very likely this will start improving very soon too. Felt like today, despite the deflection, we could have been playing until Wednesday and still wouldn't have scored. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
