G_H Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 When we released the makeweights from the squad (Jordan Allan etc) I had a bit of positivity that this meant we were looking at bringing in a better calibre of player. Unfortunately, the list of available players who would improve the squad seem to be rapidly evaporating, and we are now starting to discuss players who aren't any better than we had on the bench last year, which is not a good place to be. Would like to see some signing news soon rather than telling raith rovers fans etc about last seasons squad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr November Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 1 hour ago, Passionate said: Boyd is probably an 8 to 10 goal striker, not great, it remember Smith was only getting 6 or so until his breakout season just ended, brings us into the elephant in the room can you see Murray coming in for Smith before the season, possibly..... Maybe that is the reason we could be *loading* up on forward players.... I’d be surprised if that happened as Raith seem to have plenty of guys who can play out wide and cut inside but lack a real focal point up front, which as much as I like Smith isn’t really his role. He’d be a huge loss if he left though. I see season tickets are on sale from Monday, with Club 1924 members (I’m still waiting on my tie/chiffon scarf!) getting early access from today. Hopefully some good news over the next few days to go alongside it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got a funny feeling that just before the season tickets go on sale, we'll have a decent bit of signing news this coming weekend. absolutely not ITK or even heard anything regarding that, but it would make sense. I hope. Please. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect most of us will renew anyway but it's sensible to throw a few signings in later this week to boost sales and create some excitement. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it doesn't bother me, just seems a bit pointless. With regards to the 1924 Club. As @Mr November says the members haven't received their tie/chiffon scarf. Obviously didn't happen last season due to Covid but memebers are also supposed to be invited up to some sort of open day with the kit launch and Q&A with directors & management.

I don’t particularly care about the tie thing or getting early access for a season ticket but there’s always someone who will complain if there hadn’t been much of a 1924 incentive. I do think the club probably have to do a bit more for people who have it though. Most people who got it probably did so purely to support the club during the pandemic but we’re at a point now where attendances are back to normal and the cost of living is through the roof. Chucking Airdrie £20 every month for no real benefit is an easy thing to stop for most people with the cost of more important things rising. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
