A Fife c**t and a Tory c**t rolled in to one. Disgusting.
Manky Parsy hoor maybe, but not a Fifer!
Don't tarnish us with that Ayrshire Tory Cnut! We've enough problems with Ruth Davidson.

if I was the Forfar board I'd be asking around for Craig Easton's phone number.

Munro will be gone in January one way or another, financially we just can't afford his extra wage. Thomson and McGurn will fight it out for 1st choice and the youngster we already have/are signing on apprentice will be 3rd man back up.

That was the second time, he tried to flick it up and over the Peterhead players head in less than 5 mins. He almost fucked the first one as well.
He needs dropped for next week. Ross Munro is actually a brilliant keeper and made some outstanding saves as of late yet got dropped a couple of weeks ago for some weird reason that only McGlynn knows.I don't think he was trying anything fancy to be fair.

A good spot from Red Zeb on Fantalk for the 1st goal, Davo's passbook takes a bobble just as McGurn is about to strike the ball. I'll admit I didn't see it at the time and even missed it in the highlights too until I slowed it down. At quarter speed you see the ball lift just before he kicks it. Ok It's still a mistake but it's brought about by the surface more than solely human error.

Not a day for the purists although they would have applauded the 2nd goal, I know I did!
Referee was a ballon, his booking of Spencer was typical, a quiet word would have sufficed but no! From there on in the writing was on the wall, what a shame Davo clearly can't read.
Brown's challenge on Anderson was imo a professional foul, even if not two footed (and I still think it was) it was late, high and calculated and fully deserving of a red card.
Take nothing away from the Blootooners though as they won this on merit, they wanted it more and were willing to scrap for it where we were not.
For the away team I'd give pass marks to MacDonald and the 3 sub's, the rest to a man were all honking!

I deliberately didn't say SPL for that reason but we have played in the Premier League (Scottish top flight), East Fife though? Not in my lifetime but then again I'm only 51.

I'm incredibly biased as well, naturally there's an anti-Raith aspect but I've always felt he comes across as an arse particularly in interviews. When he's not delivering nippy sweeties to the interviewer, he's describing a different game than I've watched to make it seem better on his own team. Now loads of managers do this, but I'm also not a fan of his touchline behaviour also, he's perpetually moaning and giving the 4th official pelters. Most of the time I've seen him is against us, so perhaps my foaming at the mouth rage after ten pints before the match is a bit OTT but there you have it.
The only time I've seen him when he was nippy with the interviewer was after Stranraer when he was out of order with Davie and he admitted he was wrong on that one.
You saw him 1st hand on a bad day when he was bang out of order last season when he was sent to the send at Naeview last season, he let things get the better of him (admittedly the ref didn't help) and I blame him for the loss of that game.
Post match interviews he's usually more right than wrong, he isn't guilty of blowing smoke, if an opposing side has been the better one he usually says so unlike guys like Ian McCall and Ray McKinnon. He's not perfect far from it but I'm glad he's here.
I wouldn't say McGlynn is the overly emotional type, he is just very football orientated (I think he eats sleeps and drinks the game), he's dedicated to his players and to our club perhaps it's him having that loyalty that rubs you the wrong way? I'll bet that's it, is it the fact that he wants to stay and take the Rovers as high as he can (he wants to see us back in the Premier league) unlike some other teams managers who are happy to roam the country for interviews at the drop of a hat?

Anyone know if it’s the same knee he injured before?

I'd like to see us try Dingwall as a number 10. I don't feel he's an out and out winger. But then, that causes an issues as I'd want us to find a place for Daniel Armstrong.
Isn’t the no 10 role the secondary striker?
Dingwall's stats show he’s not up for that, 4 goals in all appearances for county.

Even without the exalted talents of Vaughan and Hendry if we can keep those available (at present) fit then we have some really good options available.
There are lots of possibilities formation wise from 4-4-2 or 3-5-2 to 3-2-2-2-1-1. It all depends on how imaginative / adventurous we can be and how well we can adapt to change. I've no doubt there is still enough quality there even missing the two (arguably) best players in the league.

Falkirk to be denied victory by a contentious last minute Loons equaliser would do me, long may Snakey Ray remain at TFS.

Looks very much like Reagan is a hope for the best but prepare for the worst scenario. Never mind a few weeks, I'll happily take any outcome that see's him taking part in games between January and May.
No news yet on Allan or Victoria?
Also nothing about Vaughans pending operation.

Zinger. Odds on the extra few hundred Raith fans who turned up on Saturday being there for the Stranraer game in two weeks?
And what a piss-poor deflection that was.
Well spotted the whole gate was 2900ish and East Fife accounted for 754 of that, ergo the home support was 2150 which is actually 500-600 up on our average home gate (the average for East Fife at home last season was 698 just in case you didn't know). Those figures show that your point was valid in that the home support was up by over 30%.
On the other hand the return zinger (whatever the f**k that is) shows that East Fife's travelling support was indeed not only greater than the average home gate but also up over 800% on their away norm. Here's a tip: If you're going to shift focus by pointing out we have some fair-weather fans then I suggest you'd be better making sure your own arse is better covered first, or to put it in layman's terms people who live in glass houses.....
Perhaps in reality it really only goes to show that there are more East Fife fans who are willing to come out and treat this as a meaningful derby, fair fucks to them for it!

It's up above. Take as long as you need until you can comprehend it.
Alternatively you can come into the club and ask the two individuals the questions you want to know the answers to.
You won't though.
Seriously why are you bothering? Don't you recognise a troll when you see one, forget it it's not worth it.
He's trying to re-open old ground that has been done to death at the time of the election that had Andy Mill voted (not self appointed) in.
Frank has admitted he isn't a member of any of the organisations (Supporters club, 200 club, McMillan club RRFC Supporters Trust) who's members vote to elect a fan to the board, so if he can't be bothered to have a say in who gets in why pander to his bleatings now? Add to that he clearly doesn't understand what that directors role is anyway despite it being explained multiple times in the past that the director is there principally to assist in the running of the club and to protect the various investments made by the aforementioned groups, not to answer to lazy/clueless fans.

Re, dropping Armstrong and Gullan, both put in near Flanaganesque performances last week , which would be more than reason enough to bench them both.
