Specky Ginger

He's had games in the top flight. The Dundee United v Hearts game last Christmas Eve springs to mind - several penalty decisions overturned by VAR and he was standing ready to wave a yellow card at Craig Gordon as he was being lifted onto a stretcher with his leg hanging off.

The linesman is on the other side of the pitch in the north half of the ground.

Another poster has already raised you Yogi.

Scott Thomson (outfield), Craig Robertson, Ian Gordon.... The list is endless.

Even Sinky came through the youth system at Dunfermline. And just to create a bit of seethe among both sets of fans - we both had Iain Munro and Jocky Scott as manager (along with Farm, Paton and Sandy Archibald if we're really going back).

So you wouldn't have Kevin Nisbet back either?

Apart from the 200 club itself being in the South Stand, the bigger issue is that it doesn't have its own toilets so members use the toilets in the concourse. Leaving the 200 club for a Colin Nish and having to walk through away fans queuing up for fudge doughnuts isn't really sensible.

There's also the issue with tiles and sponsored steps in the south stand. A fairly minor point in the grand scheme of things, but a point nonetheless.

There won't be a cash gate as such, but you can buy your ticket from a pod right outside the stand then scan it at the turnstile.

If the prosecution was "Rovers did enough to win in 90 minutes" it would probably stand up in a civil court on 'balance of probability', but fall short in criminal court on 'beyond all reasonable doubt'. Thought we were the better team over the piece, but still lack a real cutting edge and looked vulnerable on the counter attack, especially when we turned over possession in midfield. Can't wait to see Ross Matthews back for the next derby. His mission has to be to cement the Phantom of the Opera who scored their 5th penalty.

Saw the queues. Fair play for opening three stalls, but only works if each is adequately staffed.

On the prom around 3 o'clock. Not a bed sheet in sight.

Three and a half quid for a steak pie?

I don't recall the ref being particularly poor that day, other than mysteriously disallowing a Rovers goal at 0-0. Having witnessed Crawford Allan against the Pars, I'd say it's fair to suggest we've had worse.

You're sugar coating it. He was nearer the edge of our box as he turned to face their Section NW as soon as he skelped it and they were bealin.

I was at the volunteers' day in early June and the pies were tremendous. Someone said they'd been supplied by the Kelty butchers as Dean McKenzie has an interest in them. When John Simpson decided to retire and new caterers were to take over, I imagine everyone, myself included, put two and two together and came up with 37.

The only other end to end drama I've ever seen that would be on level with that was also at East End in 1994-95. Ally Graham puts Rovers 1-0 up with a header from a corner, at their end, with about eight minutes left. The Pars take centre, launch it into our box, our defenders are totally switched off and Scott Thomson has to foul the Pars player. Within seconds he's saved Hamish French's penalty and we hold on for a win.

We've had much worse loanees, but I wasn't champing at the bit to have him back. He's got a bit of pace on the overlap, but rarely delivered a telling ball and wasn't great defensively either. He might prosper more playing wing-back in a back five.

The print costs of the programme apparently went down last season when the club switched printers. When calculating profit and loss on the programme, clubs shouldn't just look at matchday sales versus print costs. Programme advertising revenue should be specifically deemed as programme revenue and if the club are putting out 50 programmes in hospitality, £150 of the hospitality revenue should be reclassified as programme revenue. That being the case, I refuse to believe the programme loses money. The fact Cowdenbeath and Clyde can produce a brilliant programme as good or better than virtually every Premier League club, with the possible exception of Aberdeen, on their gates, tells you a printed programme can still be profitable if done properly.

There was around 3500 when we played Aberdeen in the league cup two seasons ago, probably a 60/40 split between home and away fans, and I'd expect something similar for this game.

Livingston would surely have held his registration. That's cross Forth rather than cross Border.

By all accounts he seems to be a thoroughly decent laddie, so fingers crossed he kicks on, preferably after Forfar have a bad start to the season before binning the snake, and kick on thereafter with decent spud in charge.

A softish handball? I've seen wardens directing traffic to turn right with their arm closer to their body than your defender.

Never forgiven her for birling her flag at New Douglas Park which led to a yellow, and subsequent red, for Dougie Hill in a Hamilton v Rovers game circa 2013. She was right, but that's beside the point. James Keatings scored for Hamilton, as he did in every game against us that season, before the current Cowdenbeath manager secured us a draw with a second half penalty.

I'm pretty sure Lorraine Watson became Lorraine Clark and was the first female official to take charge of a senior game in Scotland. She hailed from Thornton, which was on the Kirkcaldy to Dundee road before they built a bypass in the early 80s.
