  1. No Keith Watson and we're all over the place defensively.
  2. The long sleeved training tops some of the boys have on in these Jim Foy photos look minted.
  3. I've added in a games per goal figure for each (which makes the incorrect assumption that they played 90 minutes in each game). Suggests that Vaughan and Duku were the most prolific during that spell (if you can call a goal nearly every 3 games prolific).
  4. What an absolute clusterfuck this week has been. Until today, it really felt like someone had died and I was moving through the stages of grief wondering how such a big part of my life had been taken away from me. Thankfully, following the statement from the board, I can see a way back in. We're not there yet, not by a long way. First we need to see DG actually leave the club, followed by at least some of the board and sadly, the management team too. McGlynn had build a substantial legacy, but sadly fucked it in an instant and I can't see how he can stick around. Until there's progress on some of the above, I'm not sure if I will be back or not. Something for me to ponder further. But at least we've made the a first step. The reaction from Rovers fans and the wider Scottish Football family has been heartening. Hopefully this sorry situation prevents other clubs making similar mistakes in the future. Lastly, it's important we remember the real victim in all of this. I can only hope that the money raised in her name and against the attacker can provide her some comfort.
  5. From what I understand, it more likely to be concession tickets that flag up the need to prove who you are. There is nothing stopping anyone buying a concession ticket online and gaining entry with it, if no-one is checking. Previously the club only sold these from the ticket office windows - so they were able to perform this check. Seems a fairly reasonable step to me. On the pay at the gate bit - I don't think this will ever come back. You can literally stand outside the ground and purchase a ticket online then show the barcode - so no need for cash to exchange hands etc. at the gate.
  6. I'd add to that, with hindsight, the game shouldn't have been started. I have no idea who is responsible for that (the club, referee, match commander or some combination of the three). Starting the game with a significant number of fans outside and no way of letting them in, risked escalating problems outside the ground.
  7. He's been playing (and scoring) for Cupar Hearts this season.
  8. A restricted number of scouts are allowed into each game (possibly around 6, but it might be team specific). I think most teams are prioritising the teams who they are playing in the next few games, but others will also be allowed in too.
  9. Have heard today that a version of Geordie Munro is being recorded this week for A View from the Terrace
  10. Just because we haven't seen it doesn't mean that John McGlynn and the management team haven't tried things out in training, especially when we were really short in numbers at the back. Davo, for all his faults is one of our best CBs and was close to being MotM for me yesterday until the penalty. For all his faults and the goals that he has cost us this season, if we play Jamie Watson there, we will concede for more. That's not to say if we sign someone who is better than him then we shouldn't replace him.
  11. "I'd prefer to have fresh peas, but if they don't have any I'll get frozen peas. Not ideal but we can make do. Failing that we can get beans, or play Tait in the there as an attacking mid."
  12. Potential of a deal to bring Callachan back in on loan. McGlynn, Smith, Steven Anderson and Tom Morgan all at the St Johnstone v Hearts game on Wednesday night. Callachan not really seeing any game time and can't go out on loan to anyone in the Championship or above because of the transfer window regulations. Would certainly be a great help in the midfield!
