Ro Sham Bo Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 The club issued a tweet saying no inspection was planned and the game was basically going ahead. So game off it is then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WSDR 88 Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Not sure if the weather is better down at Starks, but the snow is still lying at Newliston and it’s pretty cold. Nah it’s been fine, I stay at Seafield. Hasn’t snowed here since 4ish, and even at that it wasn’t lying when it was heavier at lunchtime. It’s just a tad slushy/wet. With the covers still on, I’d imagine the game will be on. Im unfortunately missing the game tomorrow, as I’m at a wedding, but I fully believe we’re back on the up with momentum on winning games. 3-0. COYR!!

D'Jaffo Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Any hopes I had of Stranraer doing something here are gone now that they’ve chucked there only half decent striker. I’m guessing Farrell will take inspiration from Levein tomorrow with an exciting 4-6-0 formation. Still, if it means that a few more players leave before Tuesday’s game I’ll be satisfied.

ThePoohBear Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Going into this game with a lot of troubles off the park which never helps and loosing wallace days before the game is never ideal but am sure faz will get the players in the right frame of mind for this game which was always going to be difficult. Think we could be set up very difficult to break down and try and frustrate Raith. Really have to think positive after this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kvz2000 Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 I’m baffled by what’s going on at Stranraer , the Chairman says it’s not that bad or as bad as before and we are purely acting in advance ,yet almost immediately we let our best striker and perhaps best player go , makes me feel we are not being told the full picture , interesting to note the Chairman did not answer the question on where the money went from the cup games etc ( reported at the time £80k) if we honestly believe things are not too bad than we’re being very naive.

What i have been hearing they are cutting the costs now rather than leaving it to late. Not as bad as last time which was around £250,000 in the red but its still bad, where the money has went and pointing the finger of blame is a for another day. Getting a competitive team as possible to stay in this league is just as much a priority than sorting out the bank account. As i really dont want to drop to league 2 with the relegation out of the leagues looming when you are in that division. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scary Bear Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Good pre-match write-up on the Stranraer website. http://www.stranraerfc.org/index.php/77-latest-news/1024-preview-raith-20171230 Stranraer haven’t won at Starks since 1997. We have won every home league game this season. Three of Stranraer’s players have left and they’ll have five u-20 players in the squad. Can mean only one thing...

Scary Bear Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 0-3 Stranraer? I was thinking more along the lines of 0-0 or 1-1. Could be 0-1 I suppose. 0-3 would be taking the utter piss out the fans, even for fucking Rovers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could be hopping about the pitch with his good leg hanging off his knee at right angles and I'd still fancy him to score against us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rovers1992/1993 Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Tweeted 2 minutes ago. Looks like they fully expect it to go ahead but due to the distance for Stranraer to travel, they’ve requested an early pitch inspection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
