Scary Bear Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 Is everyone excited for this one? Rovers fans will all suspect they know the script for this one. Another home defeat which will see us flirting with dropping out the top 4. I wonder how long the singing section will stick with it before giving it up as a bad idea as they are too unhappy to sing. I suppose we have to stick with it and try and kid ourselves on that we can still get promoted via the play-offs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ro Sham Bo Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 We've gone from "top of the table clash" to 4th place play off crunch in the space of a week. Impressive even by our recent standards of regression. As for the game, Lewis Milne to score is surely a certainty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beachbum Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 The other certainty is that Davidson will play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Links_Park_Dynamo Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 We were unlucky not to win at Starks Park earlier in the season and deservedly beat you at Links Park. Depends what type of line up SP puts out for this one for us to be effective but certainly looking forward to the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MOFOREVER Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 I wouldn't put it as a 4th place decider. We didn't expect to be in this position at this stage of the season to be honest so anything from here on is a bonus to us. Our first objective is to be mathematically safe. For Raith though I guess it's looked at a bit differently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GableEnder21 Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 How has Lewis Milne been for Montrose? Done okay still finding his feet in the team again I would say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For Raith though I guess it's looked at a bit differently. At the start of the season, our main goal was to maintain League 1 status. A couple more wins should see this accomplished and to be mentioned in play off contention is way more than we could have expected. To be truthful, the team isn't ready for a push to the Championship. If we were to go up, I fear we could do a Brechin. Every Mo fan I know is delighted with the season so far ( Even Buttie ) and only a crash of catastrophic magnitude would wreck our season. We have a free hit next weekend. Win, lose or draw we're still going to be in 5th place and moving into the last round of games, that'll do for me. That said, I hope we stuff the Rovers.

Ro Sham Bo Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 A team playing with no pressure and a free hit is exactly the sort of team we really don't need to come up against. Although there's not many teams in the league I would fancy our chances against just now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scary Bear Posted February 18, 2019 Author Share Posted February 18, 2019 I think i’ll have a wee break from the Rovers. Back for the Airdrie or Dumbarton game, but only if we look like we’re capable of doing anything this season. I’ll try and do something more productive than watching the same players playing ineffective football. McGlynn will probably be forced to “change it” for this one. Maybe try and get close to the same team that won 4-0 against Forfar earlier in the season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottydog Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 The way things are I’m not expecting much from this game, so cue the Rovers turning in an off the cuff masterclass and giving s a wee bit of hope just when we thought otherwise, teasing bast@rds.

Rover1990 Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 McGlynn will need to have some big changes the titles gone and if we don't freshen this up the play-offs might be a struggle to achieve as well. I'd go with this assuming Bene and (hopefully!!) Davo are injured. Bring a couple of the young boys in to inject some life into this team.

Paco Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 I’m in little doubt that if both Benedictus and Davidson are out, it’ll be Murray and Wedderburn at centre back with Gillespie at right back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would agree with that. Can’t be any worse than the normal back 4. The thought of Barjonas in a 2 man midfield gives me the fear though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Paco was inferring that even if the entire back four was injured/suspended McGlynn still wouldn't give youth a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
