Rovers1992/1993 Posted December 18, 2016 Author Share Posted December 18, 2016 Hopefully we don't come up against 10 men any more this season. That's three times in the last couple of months and we've been atrocious each time.A pity, because there were some signs of encouragement before that. 3? I count 2. Hibs and Dundee United. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UnitedLoon63 Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 If only we had a striker....Defence looking vv solid, after watching the past few seasons don't think I'd ever say that. Why can't we sign that Dutch boy now??? Heard we have to wait till the window opens 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovers1992/1993 Posted December 18, 2016 Author Share Posted December 18, 2016 Ayr at home too, although we too had ten men at that point. Cheers, forgot about them [emoji106].Anyway, we're moving in the right direction performance wise. We started the game today like we finished the game last Saturday which was encouraging. I had said before last Saturday that we'd get beat by St Mirren, then go on and take something from Dundee United. Just a bit gutted it wasn't all 3 points as I feel we more than deserved the 3 points. I'd probably start the same team that started today next week as well. Callachan was absolutely brilliant today. As was Thompson and Davo. At half time, I mentioned the only player that wasn't having the best of games was McHattie but he had a brilliant second half. Another trip on Soccer AM with those skills that he showed in the first half again? Even Skacel and McManus had decent games today.All 3 subs were the right subs to make, the only problem with them is the timings. Stewart should have been on as soon as Toshney was sent off( ). Coustrain for Barr was a sub that was badly needed 15 mins before it was. I'd have maybe taken off Mchattie for Vaughan instead of McManus and went 3-4-3 but I understand why Locke didn't. That sub could end up being career suicide if it doesn't come off.. Anyway, looking forward to next week now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granny Danger Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 BTW kudos to Raith for having the guy from the Kirkcaldy Foodbank speak before the game. Shocking that we need such things in 2016 but a nice touch and an indication that the club has close ties with the community 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waffelz Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Them two stands across the touch lines are fucking pathetic. Cant wait to see a team without Obadayi and Toshney next week!!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foreverarover Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Them two stands across the touch lines are fucking pathetic. Cant wait to see a team without Obadayi and Toshney next week!!! Bit of a bizzare combination of comments but hey ho. Toshney was never a right back so you may find that may change if they bring someone in to that position. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foreverarover Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Again another good quality video from Raith TV. That penalty !!! To me it looks as though the Utd player takes a swing at his misscontrolled touch and has a fresh air shot. Neither of the two defenders done a thing. Sums up the referee the whole game tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert Nomad Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Disgraceful decision by the referee. Can anyone that seen the incident can they confirm? Whit? Absolutely a second yellow. Toshney is a fucking numbskull. Sooner he is not in the team the better. Shite player, and never a right full back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert Nomad Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Think it has already been mentioned by every United fan in the world, we need a striker! Tope the latest misfit. United better with ten men and Murray up front. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hank Scorpio Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Toshney's challenge on Skacel is a shocker, should've been off in the first half alone. Never a penalty either. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broken Algorithms Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 That's never a penalty. Good job Cuthbert was more than up to the job of saving it. One thing which separates Bobby Barr from any of our other wingers is his experience. Right after Toshney bundled him over, he's turned straight to the referee and reminded him it's a second booking. Similarly, his positions for corners is absolutely glorious too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully Franko VDS is back for the next game now that Toshney has kindly put himself out of the frame. Number 3 is Kevin Mchattie. Useless at defending. Brilliant going forward. Scored a few screamers this season, including the equaliser through at Tannadice earlier in the season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
