Enigma Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 Good to see that Raith Updates are keeping us posted on potential sightings of Clinton Baptiste in the Novar… Amateur hour on and off the pitch today… 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Specky Ginger Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 (edited) If we're awarded what looked like a stonewall penalty five minutes before half-time, or if their goal is disallowed for what looked like a foul in the build up, or if they go down to ten men earlier for the shocking tackle on Ethan Ross in front of the railway stand, then we're looking at a completely different outcome today. However, if Murray is, rightly, to be given plaudits for Wednesday night, he has to take responsibility for today, upsetting the shape and formation of the team to accommodate Zanatta, who has shown little to justify inclusion, at the expense of Mitchell, who had done nothing to deserve to be dropped.

If he doesn’t do it this season, then I could see him going to league 1 or possibly part time as what clubs are going to keep giving him chances at full time level and do absolutely nothing? Fans of previous clubs and ourselves can’t wait to see the back of him he’s had 6 different clubs and what’s he done for any of them? Only at 25 this might be last chance saloon at FT football in Scotland unless he goes else where (Zanatta point of your statement) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kev23 Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 The Aberdeen game is just a glorified friendly now. The Cove match is now the key date for us. I really fail to see how anyone can come to this conclusion. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tazz1903 Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 Always an excuse? bad ref, terrible playing surface, unlucky with injuries? Just admit defeat by a better team? Billy big boys after the Peterhead game (who are shite by the way) brought back down to earth. Who's to blame for the missed penalties? I'm looking forward to the delusion of premier league football 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Providing we don’t slip up against Dumbarton then if we beat Aberdeen, we’ll win the group. So please, at least leave the negativity to the side until we’re a bit longer than a week into the season. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we get much worse we might end up at East Fife level of completely fucked.It's a glorified pre season game. Nice weather and a few beers will have people overreacting. I'll start to worry if we're struggling after the first few games of the league campaign. Until then, it's a new management team, with a few signings to be made yet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rovers1992/1993 Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 Beat Aberdeen? We did exactly that last season. Some rovers fans are a weird breed. We drew our second game of the season after hammering a team in our first game and some fans have us virtually relegated already 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scary Bear Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 Not much love for Zanatta on here, but I’m still hopeful the big guy can find his form again. A really useful player for us on his game and capable of scoring some lovely goals. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fife are in freefall to the lowland league, I'm sure but hey ho , we might improve with Craw? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fife are in freefall to the lowland league, I'm sure [emoji22] but hey ho , we might improve with Craw? [emoji849]Aye I'm doing fine thanks. Hope you are also. If the aim isn't promotion with the majority of a squad who finished 5th last season then what's the point? If craw can get his signings right he's decent enough. Signings seem to be harder to do this summer for teams through this way though. I think the loans that are available in the next few weeks could be quite telling. 3 of the big clubs have their b teams in the ll so may want to keep them there. Time will tell. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a fan of Crawford TBH, but we are not in any position to be picky, never a fan the first time he was at the Fife. Very interesting to see how Falkirk progress with Mcglynn? top of the section in this cup with a win against a Prem club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably should have kept young, who quite clearly loves a win or extra point against us. You guys should have enough to stay up but l2 is a tough league with everyone fighting to stay up. Being the scenes seems to be an issue as well? I was a big mcglynn fan but it was the right time for him to move on after everything since January. He knows how to get out of l1, as long as its not a playoff game. Falkirk should be able to crack the top 4 this season in my honest opinion. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raith1974 Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 Zanatta clearly has ability but he has two faults, first he has no heart and 2nd he's a shit bag. If he had Connollys commitment and heart he would be a very good player. He needs to learn from his pal Connolly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
