Rover the Moon Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 I remember the Dumbarton v Inverness final a few years ago was in the 4pm slot on the Saturday. Absolute pish that this one’s late on the Sunday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALOREBURNE Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 Bonkers this is being played on the Sunday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scary Bear Posted March 3, 2022 Author Share Posted March 3, 2022 The two finals we’ve previously won were both played on a Sunday. The Ramsdens Cup Final in 2014 against Rangers kicked off at 4.05pm. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The venue isn't ideal though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's not to like ... before the game we all get to sample the bars, saloons, wine bars, and brasseries of that well trodden tourist mecca that is forever ... well ... Airdrie really. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I said on the other thread, that bloody final in Perth left me with a serious case of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder ... I still get flashbacks to this day of David (aka Leo Messi) Hutton's attempt to dribble with ball instead of hoofing the fecking thing oot the park. Scarred for life man, scarred for life! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halbeath Raith Rover Posted March 4, 2022 Share Posted March 4, 2022 (edited) Not just Airdrie, Airdrie on old firm day. Looking forward to getting in early and making a day of it Edited March 4, 2022 by Halbeath Raith Rover 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19QOS19 Posted March 4, 2022 Share Posted March 4, 2022 Happy enough with the Sunday as I couldn't make the Saturday (not that I was gutted tbh). I'm hoping we're looking a bit better in the league by the time this rolls around, I'll enjoy it if we are. It would be depressingly hilarious if we win this and get relegated [emoji38] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to getting in early and making a day of it I’m thinking a cross between Mos Eisley Spaceport pub and that Tortuga where all the pirates go on Pirates of the Caribbean. But with Rangers strips. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steakngravy Posted March 4, 2022 Share Posted March 4, 2022 There is a good pub about a twenty minute walk from the ground and there is also a really nice and friendly Masonic Lodge next to it, non members allowed in the bar. It's cheaper than the pubs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foreverarover Posted March 4, 2022 Share Posted March 4, 2022 The issue you will have is most of the pubs will only allow regulars in on old firm days so that could be problematic if looking to make a day of it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steakngravy Posted March 5, 2022 Share Posted March 5, 2022 Do they still have a lounge at the ground which might be open for fans of both clubs? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Specky Ginger Posted March 6, 2022 Share Posted March 6, 2022 I'm going to hazard a guess that Rovers will play in red and Queens in blue, so as to keep our home strip sponsor out of the picture. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dearbhorghila Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 We have Main Stand. Raith have East and South. Is that a 3500/4750 split? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ro Sham Bo Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 (edited) After yesterday there has been no home winner in the last 10 fixtures between the two clubs, with 6 away wins and 4 draws. Good luck to whoever is designated the 'home' team for this one. Edited March 13, 2022 by Ro Sham Bo 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
