I'd never considered a David McGurn managed Raith Rovers before, but now I realise it's all I've ever wanted. 

It's a no from me. 

My adoration of Dalziel was tainted by his disastrous time as manager.

FYI, the Pars fans reported almost 1,700 streams sold. lol forward to seeing how we did...don’t expect that, but should be decent.

The Pars have previous for  inflating attendances so take streaming figures with a pinch of salt 

Surprised they never announced a crowd of 5000 at the game

Another one here who was streaming for the first time and very impressed with RaithTV. Didn't expect as many cameras around the ground while the box in replay is a great touch.

Still in utter disbelief that attempting to sign up and buy a stream at 14:59 wasn't plain sailing. The site didn't load for AT LEAST 30 seconds.

1 star.

Probably waiting for a sale, eh?

While I’m here, let’s not forget that Tait now has three yellows in three games (2 Betfred and 1 Championship). Anyone know the (I assume) revised thresholds?

Assume they are unchanged, but even if not the cup and league cards don't get totalled up together.

Keeping them unchanged seems of dubious sense, but knowing the SPFL...

Yes, I’m aware they are separate, hence the word “thresholds”, the plural of threshold. My point is he’s setting himself up poorly for a career with officials, if he becomes known as a habitual card receiver as a young player,

He was only booked 3 times in 20 appearances last season. It's a bit early to say he's making any sort of name for himself for poor discipline.

And I’m noting he’s been booked three times in three games this season...pretty much for aggressive challenges...just concerned that he doesn’t become “known” for it.

That's an interesting question. I'm not aware of any change in the regulation so there fore it is presumably 6 bookings in first 18 league games = 1 game suspension. Getting to 12 bookings in a 27 game season seems unlikely but I expect someone will give it a go!

Nothing has changed about the way the Betfred Cup runs so not sure why you'd assume anything would change with the suspension rules in it. Two booking = immediate one match suspension. Which is why Dylan Tait will be sitting out Raith's next Betfred Cup tie.

Davo will ebsure he sits out Christmas again whether through bookings or a sending off.

Makes sense, I wasn’t sure if the Betfred would be changed because it’s pretty much status quo...the league, as you note, is a little bit different, so I thought they might have gone off the tracks a bit, but didn’t see anything in the most recent SPFL rulebook.

Probably because disciplinary matters are for the SFA, not the SPFL.

Apologies if it’s been asked elsewhere, but who’s the guy that’s been helping smudger in the dugout?

Any news on the ‘crowd’ yesterday in terms on non-season ticket holders?

[TxRover]

Noticed a couple of questions on the RaithTV chat about if a replay is available to those who purchase a game. I know some teams do that, and it would seem to add value at little cost, unless I’m missing something.

It would mean the volunteer's who already do more than enough have more to do. The quality of the stream on top of the half time stuff, which has been based around all 4 teams thus far is surely worth £12?

Absolutely agree, but if there is a way, adding value at negligible cost would seem a win. I’m not asking the volunteers to make it happen, perhaps the club could offer a little assistance to help support the streaming income stream.

[roverthemoon]

Raith TV are head and shoulders the best thing about the club over the last 4 or 5 years. And to think it’s all done by volunteers giving up their spare time makes it even more impressive. The matchday stream is absolutely superb.

RaithTV again provided an outstanding service on Saturday for the Arbroath game. Great quality of picture & some great informative chat as well. Take a bow all the RaithTV team[emoji122][emoji122][emoji122]
