Why so? 15 minutes along the road, 2nd v's 3rd and only 4 points separating the two sides. And spare me the "we don't see this as a big game" drivel. That's been done to death and no-one buys it, especially given the current league positions. On the other hand you may well be alluding to a dwindling support, seeing as you are now officially a wee team in a seaside league. That I can accept. If Wraith cant muster around 1000 fans for a local derby game then things must be pretty bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

true_rover Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Any idea how much Raith fans are expected to be there on Saturday??Rovers on Facebook saying that we've sold 2/3rds of our allocation, so that's c650 with it being likely that you'll be able to buy on the day.

If you don't want to believe whether we class this as a big game or not is up to you. You're missing the point friend. I was alluding to the fact you stated "I’d be surprised if we sell out our allocation imo" Whether or not you class this as a big game means feck all. I'm sure most EF fans don't care. A club the size of Wraith should easily muster 1000 fans for an away game considering its just along the road. 2nd v's 3rd is reason enough imo. Must be great being so far up your own arse that you don't see this as an important game. #WraithMassive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALDERON Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 The fact it's 2nd vs 3rd isn't really any kind of draw considering both places guarantee the same thing really. Anyway East Fife is the only derby we have right now. It's nowhere near the level of interest compared to when we play the Pars, but id like to think we could bring 1k to the game considering we brought the best part of 6/700 to Bayview for our league Cup games.

Broken Algorithms Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Second season visiting a team our fans don't really care about compared to the Pars, in a town with awful transport links.

Hank Scorpio Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 I’m looking forward to Saturday. The games against East Fife are usually quite pish but it’s a derby and I’m quite up for it. Awaiting SJM’s pre match interview with trepidation with regards to injury news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awaiting SJM’s pre match interview with trepidation with regards to injury news. Wouldn't surprise me if Duggan is back but on the bench. Even still Smith and Stevenson looked really lively on Saturday. I'd imagine we'll still start Milne on the wing which nobody wants, but we're forced into it due to injuries. Unless this winger gets signed before of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lellywong Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 Maybe next week for Duggan too early this week, no Vaughan, Hendry or Gillespie (though I do believe he's near to light training). Oh to have a squad of fully fit players beginning to wonder if it will ever happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ro Sham Bo Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 Vaughan potentially in need of another op which would put him out until next year according to the FFP. The FFP also doesn't sound as optimistic about Duggan as the man himself did at half time last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
