Good article on Danny Lennon on the BBC website today. Someone I always hoped would get the Raith job when it’s become available in the past. Seems to have a pure passion for life and football!

It's along the corridor on the same side as the board room, I have no idea who uses it.
Opposite side of the corridor from the boardroom. Beside the tea room, it faces the stairs that take you up to the directors box.1 -
Changing the subject slightly, will there be half-season tickets sold this year? I’ve found myself going to more home games than I anticipated and would like to give the club a bit of money for January.
Usually mid December I think.0 -
Not sending off Tidser for that is an absolutely ridiculous decision. The useless clogger could quite easily have ended Reagan's season with that assault. Decision has probably cost us 3 points in title race too.
I disagree. Yes it was a clear red but after that tackle, we started to play with real fire in the belly. I actually think it spurred us on.0 -
It's an old taunt about the relative popularity of football vs imported Can-Am sports in Kirkcaldy. It actually has f**k all to do with the relative sizes of the different Fife football clubs.
Absolute nonsense0 -
oh aye, just seen marvin andrews leave starks park
This might be funny0 -
A few folk questioning his attitude etc. Yes his form dipped in his last few games but I don’t think for a second that Mcglynn would have gone back in for him if he believed his attitude was wrong.

And for the Raith fans saying we set out to do Vaughan, short memories, was it Benedictus or Davidson that got injured trying to do in Mikey McKenna?
Big bad Arbroath though.. [emoji23]
Hardly comparable. Benedictus tried to chop down a player that was through on goal if he got past him. Ended up injuring himself more as a result.4 -
He got MOTM for us on his debut too. I’m pretty sure both would have been awarded more for his ‘cult hero’ looks and physique rather than his ability. As an aside, James Berry played and was sent off for the team Kelty were playing.

I wonder what formation we will play now that Vaughan will be our for the foreseeable? We had changed to a front two with one in behind but I don’t think Gullan is overly effective in the hole. I wonder if it’ll be Allan in the middle with Anderson and Bowie on the wings.

Yesterday was such an important win for us but yet it feels like a defeat after what happened to Lewis.

Mcglynn’s interview doesn’t suggest it’s a dislocation

Tony Dingwall came out and told the guys in the stand it was his ACL... was relayed by the commentators on Raith Tv. Let’s hope this dislocated knee thing is correct!

100% agreed. I mean he was class like, but says volumes about a boy when the attitude changes. For example when Craigen had pre signed for Falkirk, if anything he upped his game. Christ what a player, still bizarre to me that fans didn’t take to him.
James Craigen would have been appreciated and utilised more in the current team I think. Bags of technical ability and one of the most two footed players I’ve even seen. Used to take corners with his right then the next one with his left!0 -
June, apologies...
Why don’t you ask him now?0 -
Seemingly Gregory Tade is training with us just now.

Well, I took in the first leg of Raith Rovers (upper half L1), and QotS (rank rotten Championship). The gap in quality between the two was a bit of an eye opener tbh. Queens midfield had no-one remotely close to Tidser, yet they absolutely tore Raith to shreds, and dominated all over the park.
Shite.... clearly didn’t watch any of the two games.0 -
When he’s been putting balls in to the box, so far though, are much better than previous also, I wonder if it’s because he’s been playing as a striker and now realises actually that’s where I would want them so that’s where I’ll stick them
I don’t think you need any experience playing as a striker to know that you don’t want to be hitting the first defender with your crosses.0 -

I assume that McG has some assurance on that, or I would have expected some outline of a plan for backup. I’m just noting that the same thing that has crippled us before is still hovering...
I don’t think for one second that John Mcglynn would f**k that up like Hughes did in the past!0 -
the result of this match depends on whether the dirty airdrie side turns up or the footballing side turns up. footballing wise we will devastate them, but dirty play they will crucify us, or will they???? last time 9i was at airdrie they had 6 vooking and 2 sent off.
I think you’re needing to stay off the Rakia neebur!0 -
Feeling pretty confident about this one. 0-2 with S Anderson and Allan on the scoresheet.

The depth of squad looks great now. I actually feel a lot more confident now of challenging for this league. The acid test will be on Saturday but with Anderson in that back line, I have a feeling that these silly goals will be a thing of the past!

I remember him scoring one in a 0-3 win for us there when Colin Hendry was their manager. What a player he was on his day. Another player who’s career was cut short through injury.
I can see us going 4231 this week with Bowie, Gullan and Armstrong behind Allan. If Mcglynn had any intention of playing McKay in a back three, he would have tested it against Glenavon first I suspect.
