McGuigan1978 Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 I dread to think how bad Cambuslang Fifer's comedown is at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Specky Ginger Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Thanks for that. Maybe one day you lot will own a stadium to call home. See you Sat. Mon the Fife RRFC and Starks Park Properties are to be consolidated into one company on the completion of John Sim's take over. Who actually owns Bayview? Didn't the guy Rankine sign it over to his ten year old step daughter to get round dual ownership rules? Imagine what would happen to East Fife if she decides she'd rather have a Wendy house than goalposts on her property. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Berk Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 22 minutes ago, Big Fifer said: This will be a close game I think but I'm inclined to say Raith will edge it. I don't think we can play a team with Spence, Buchanan and Vaughan in their attack and be confident that Goodfellow will get the better of them. I'm not as confident about this game as some Rovers fans. A team that beats Alloa (which we didnt) and can win at Gayfield must be decent enough. Spence Buchanan and Vaughan (especially) have been scoring but we didnt look like breaking down 10 man Forfar until they tired at the end. If East Fife play an open game we'll beat them at it but I think they'll set themselves up to make it hard for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
east fife for life Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 I'm looking forward to what should be a good game. As I've said before Buchanan, Vaughan and Spence clicking would cause all sorts of problems for any team at this level. I think the first goal will be crucial and we will certainly have to defend better than yesterday or we won't take anything from the game. All laughing and joking aside I'm looking forward to the banter with the few Rovers pals I know and hopefully we can finally get a win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hank Scorpio Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 This thread, though. There's a few decent East Fife supporters on here but the vast majority seem to be mouth breathing puddle drinkers I'm afraid; entirely incapable of constructing even a semi-coherent sentence. As for the game, I'll be in a semi-comatose state in a field near Liverpool but will try to catch the result come 445. I fancy us to win, but not by much. It'll be cagey and EF will be right up for it. I'd be tempted to bring in Matthews for Barr to give us the extra bite in the middle, though Barr has done well the past few games. I'm cautious that the same players are just playing 90 minutes every week. I realise we have a small squad but that doesn't last forever, certainly not for all of them. I was initially concerned that Lennox was out injured but young Rory Brian did very well yesterday, I'd be more than happy for him to be between the sticks again, though obviously it'd be nice to have the first choice GK back. In the final third we're certainly firing, without looking like we've fully clicked. Spence hasn't made a clean connection with the ball since he signed and Buchanan drifts in and out of games. Vaughan clearly is our star man, probably him who'll make the difference. If the EF fans could refrain from posting complete fucking gibberish for the remainder of the thread, that'd be great.

Whatever he did at New Bayview he's light years ahead of Bert Murray and Gary Locke. Anyway, for the game I hope he punts Davo because this will be exactly the type of game he's liable to have brain seizures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pat 1958 Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Lets be honest in the great scheme of things these games dinny really count for much more than 3 points, the great rivalry of years gone by is an irrelevance as neither club is ever going to hit the heights of winning major trophies ever again. Still nice to have some banter though but lets keep it real, you lot look good up front with Buchanan etc but we will see how good you are in the middle and at the back, hoping for a good close game mon the fife Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're fine middle to front Pat, no so good at the back though. Good win for you yesterday, sets up Saturdays game nicely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo Fife Posted August 20, 2017 Author Share Posted August 20, 2017 I don't know. You start a thread with the best intentions and 24 hours later its turned into a fuckwit fest. Not even a decent horse pic! Looking forward to next Saturday. I'm old enough to remember (but not that old) when the rivalry between the clubs meant something and no doubting this is our biggest derby. I have a good feeling about this one with the Fife finally putting the 20+ year wait to bed and finally getting one over on the Rovers and wee Barry the horrible little treacherous cant.
