What do you do with the rovers season ticket holders whos seat is in that area, End of the day if a section of your away support can’t behave that isn’t the fault of Rovers season ticket holders so why would they give up there seats because there might be 300 Arbroath fans turning up. It’s been sorted at other grounds fair enough! but considering we have more season ticket holders than what you got in total at home  on Saturday it hardly warrants upsetting our own support to accomadate a few 100 Arbroath fans
I'm only suggesting it as there was a bit of trouble at the first match last season.

If Arbroath fans are in the main stand it would be sensible to put us all nearer to the half way line and the Rovers nearer to their fans behind the goal. Tape the dividing line and it's sorted. Been done at other grounds before.

Absolutely no chance. That's where the auld codgers sit. Don't want to disturb that lot.

What kind of crowd are the Rovers expecting?Feel good factor of McGlynn and pumping Dumbarton should see a decent crowd. We will most likely be unchanged. Slightly worried that Vaughan dropping deeper will cause havoc seeing as we don’t really have a defensive midfielder. Bobby Linn has been in the form of his life this season and hopefully continues that way. Should be a good day out regardless of the result also.

Can we shoot towards McDermid stand first half please.

Better hope Bene wins the toss then as team after all these years are catching on.

Didn’t make much of a difference last year in the fact that we didn’t actually lose  a game, but tend to be quite flat in the second half of matches.

"Think people are forgetting it’s Arbroath we are talking about.

Can’t deny they made a few shrewd signings in the summer and they have been on fire 1st quarter but that’s what it is, one quarter.

Keeping that kind of consistency over the course of a season will be impossible for them, especially once injuries and suspensions hit over the winter."

Had a nosey at a Raith forum, seen that, get it on the changing room walls DC

Don't really get it to be honest, our squads probably our main strength and not sure what winter has to do with anything either

Raith fan speculates that Arbroath performances may dip at vaguely defined future point. Aye, get that tattoo'd on the back of Campbell's head, pronto.

If thats the level of chat required to get at you then you have ridiculously thin skin. 

Arbroath have every reason to be confident, so do the Rovers.

You really feeling confident Arbroath are going to break 90 points this season? Because that’s what keeping up the start will mean over the season. Not really anything remotely controversial in that statement. Arbroath’s form will dip (as will ours).

Both teams will be confident, Arbroath probably more so. Defeat leaves us in a weak position, not insurmountable obviously but puts a bit of pressure on us going into a tougher second quarter. Got to hope we have enough to win. Interested to see how McGlynn gets on in an actual contest.

Careful, you don't want to end up on the Lichtie wall of infamy.

"Get that on the dressing room wall" is the calling card of the moron. Right up there with "pc gone mad". I'm sure professional footballers are perfectly capable of motivating themselves without the need for the musings of some c**t on a forum.

Biggest game of the season and an Arbroath fan wants Dick Campbell walking about the dressing room plastering quotes from Fantalk? :lol:.

Can understand why they took offence though, it’s clear a drop off will not happen. Both teams to go the season unbeaten IMO.

I'm sure professional footballers won't give a shit what some random on a rovers message board has to say about them.
