el Gringo Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 Lots going on at Airdrie this week, and the upcoming El Buckfastico seems to have been forgotten. Will our guys be out to impress the new boss or be unsettled by the removal of the old one? Will we play like we know we can, or like we did in the last derby? Away win for me. Rovers 2-7 Diamonds.

MacGafraidh Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 1-1 Rovers scoring in the last minute and scenes up the A89 on the way up to Airdrie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yoda8 Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 It's a game Rovers need to win, get your money on Airdrie then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nipper Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 Important Mark Wilson gets off to a good start. Hopefully he will already know what needs to be done with regard to the players and is able to develop a system on the park which is achievable for the players we have which will make us a more consistent and competitive side. Something we haven't been for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicko Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 The last time I was at Rovers' ground the fans were located on flat ground either side of their pavilion thing. Meant that all we could see were heads running up and down the side of the pitch and the frequent balls punted into the air. Does anyone know if you can stand elsewhere like behind the Airdrie end goal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She who dares gins Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 Wouldn't expect miracles in a week - happy with a solid/organised performance. A result is a bonus as we're effectively starting again (again). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we lost 7-2 there I couldn't see a thing from the people infront of me (thank f***). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yoda8 Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 To leapfrog their rivals into the playoffs if theirs serious about playoffs, which should be everyone outside Stenny & QP aim. lose its 5 point gap with Peterhead possibly overtaking you don't agree?

I see where you're coming from on this but I have to agree with Bold. Playoff's would be a dream come true for us and of course we should be looking to improve on last seasons league position. However I don't think much has changed financially or behind the scenes for us to support that. We are ticking along nicely and have in the last few weeks picked up points away at Airdrie, Livingston and Alloa, not places I would have imagined us doing so at the start of the season. Personally I'd like to see our home form pick up. So yes it would be great to get another one over on Airdrie, however if we lose I don't imagine anyone will be calling for Darren Young's head. Unless it finishes 8-2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DestroyedByMadness Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 For decades I'd looked down my nose at Rovers but those days are long gone. On the park the club have been settled and consistent, Sandy Clark then Billy Stark have done a great job with the team. Off the park Tony McMinn and Rab Fullobins has got into the community and set in place massive improvements to engage with the town. They've thoroughly put Airdrie to shame in the past few years. Hope to f**k we rattle yous though. ML5isadive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evil Jim Fenner Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 I see the Rovers have properly finished off behind the goals into a 'section'...fence at both ends, and a brick wall at the front of the terrace. Will still fit our 7-800 in, but it will be tight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
