Would the only way for the board to show they 'give a flying fuck' be to sack Grant Murray? The board have taken steps to bring in an experienced coach to aid GM, rather than just sack him, which, in your opinion, is the sole reason for the three in a row', so to suggest they 'don't give a flying fuck' is wide of the mark, IMO.

Bugler IMO

Murray out at the end of the season?..

Think the extention to McGurn's contract could be a shout. In any case, is it not unlikely the club would announce a signing (loan or otherwise) outside the transfer window? Unless loans are different of course, in which case, carry on..

Clearly it's time we dispensed with the PA management and got ruthless..

Not to have a go, but this weekend last year, Morton were five points adrift at the bottom of the league having amassed a whopping 9 points and only had two wins to their name. We're shite, but we're not last-season's-Morton shite.

No.

Winning on penalties doesn't count, presumably.

Indeed, Livi probably would have scored even more with that bombscare in defence.

Wait, there's no Santa Claus?

He'd come back with the same puddings he always buys, despite them being shite, because of his inability to pick something different. Nevertheless, he'd take positives from the same old crap he is served up week in, week out.

Surely today's result spells the end of Grant Murray's reign as Raith Rovers manager? 80-odd minutes with 10 men or not, the group of players we have should be performing better than losing 5 goals at home to a side bottom of the league, without an away win in the league all season. I could almost understand the goals against today if we had left 3 at the back, but to take off an attacking option to, presumably, shore up the defence and still lose five goals is an absolute joke. In my last post on the mater, I suggested it might be time for a change of management, after today I feel it definitely is. It's game over for Murray for me.

27/11/94, what a brilliant day. The fact that 20 years on we are still enthusing over the cup win, still sharing our memories, still getting dewy eyed over it and remembering it vividly as if it were yesterday is what supporting a diddy team is all about - the highs are few and far between but by fuck are they worth it when they do arrive.

In theory I like the way the Rovers went about appointing a manager after McGlynn. I'd much rather promote from within and appoint an up-and-coming manager, hungry to make a name for themselves than one of the usual suspects on the managerial merry-go-round, and I have probably been one of the last to show support to the Grant Murray regime (a 'happy clapper', if you will). However, with no upturn in the quality of football on show and results-wise we are treading water at best, maybe it is time for a change. If it was to come to it, I'd be happy with Danny Lennon or Terry Butcher, I have an inexplicable hatred of Derek Adams but could make my peace with his appointment were it to happen. Anyone who can take the current crop of players and make them more competitive on the pitch will do me fine.

At least the clocks have gone back now..
