When the 200 Club was in the Raith suite members who wanted to sit in the south stand bought a transfer ticket at the main stand turnstile. Im not sure if you'll get to just cross over at track-side or if you'll need to come out and back in at the south stand turnstiles though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raithie Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 Did anyone see the old boy that sells 50/50 tickets offer Bobby Barr a square go outside society and then try and hit him with his walking stick? He was there tonight having a giggle about it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foreverarover Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 To be honest I reckon it would have been a bit of a squeeze in the Raith suite, society was a nice change of scenery. Better than the car park/car boot feel we had last year. You had a whole stand to sit in. Didn't have to be in the suite. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donny86 Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 The McMillan club being opened to all fans pre-match? Guess I'll not be paying my £120 membership fee then..... Snob! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JinglinGeordie Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 I just came online to read a bunch of grown men salivating over new football shirts. Anyone already enquired at ACA how much it costs to get a name and number on the back? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True but then the parading of the new strips would've been on the pitch...........actually that would probably have looked pretty good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rrfcgav Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 I support the team in many ways but I've never thought an out of shape grown man wearing a replica top was ever a good look. You own loads of replica tops. Bayern for example. You wear football tops all the time. Get the strip bought ;-) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hank Scorpio Posted July 6, 2017 Author Share Posted July 6, 2017 Interestingly the only beers, on draught, available were Stella and Perroni at £4.50 a pint. They were having 'issues' with their Tenants. Someone complained about it saying it was deliberate and some staff member said they had plans to make Society the Rovers pre match pub with half price beer and food if people show their season ticket/match ticket. It'll probably come to nothing as people will just make use of the McMillan lounge if it's being open to all fans pre match. Well "half price beer" is a promotion and alcohol promotions are illegal in Scotland, so that's nonsense. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steakngravy Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 Would it not been better to open the South Stand concourse and the 200 club and held the diplay in the concourse and anyone wanting a drink visit the 200 club. All money going to the Rovers. It's not rocket science you know I dispair about what is running Raith Rovers they seem to go from bad to worse. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Society are a sponsor and that will have been part of the sponsorship deal, therefore there is a financial gain for Raith from tonight 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Society is a good venue for this type of event. A mostly empty stadium wouldn't have had any atmosphere. I personally thought the event tonight was pretty good. Some fizz and food put on, good timing, just the right size venue to feel busy and have a bit of a buzz. Players and manager in good form etc Not being funny but the Raith Suite / 200 Club and all of the main stand "facilities" are like something out of the dark ages. I say knock it down and build something purpose built with a few bars/suites, one of which could be open and generating revenue all day, everyday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also take in to account the cost for the club for staff and for food to be brought in from outside the stadium with the unpredictability of how many people will actually turn up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steakngravy Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 Sorry guys have to disagree with you there. This was a Raith night and as such should have been held at Starks Park. Munter if you want dark ages you should have been around when it was terracing behind the goals and there was a tunnel underneath "c" stand in the main stand where there was a toilet. If yoy were brave or stupid you went there if like most supporters in those days you went up to the back and did your business. You want toknock it down and how do you propose to fund this? I doubt if you can come up with a reasonable and sensible reply. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steakngravy Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 (edited) Jiglin Geordie so you only went for the freebies ok understand where you are coming from now another freeloader. The 200 club is run by volunteers no one takes a wage. As for food Mario would have opened up the pie stall if asked. I forgot that would have cost you money that would have gone to the Rovers sorry. The pie stall might have remained closed then shocking. Edited July 6, 2017 by steakngravy Forgot to end properly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Munter Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 Steakngravy I remember the terraces and the ash clouds/asbestos cladding at the rear of the sheds! Biggest thing I miss at the football is standing. Would love to see the area in front of the main stand, or the in the railway stand used for "safe standing". Anyway if Simm is taking over and wants to make Starks sustainable for the long term I'd suggest replacing the main stand and including facilities such as a conference room, couple of hospitality suites/corporate boxes, a bar etc would be the way to go. The Pars have done this to good effect and many other smaller clubs around the UK. The biggest hindrance to the club is the ground, it's just no use for generating revenue away from football every two weeks. Btw Good to see a woman's game tomorrow night, hopefully a good earner for the club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
