Raith Against The Machine Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 Near total dominance, certainly as far as proper chances go. I'm maybe forgetting something, but that feels like our best half of the season (setting aside that daft Peterhead game), by a bit of a margin. We've still not been entirely fluid, but you can add three or four really good chances to the goals. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raith Against The Machine Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 Interesting that Matthews was stripped and ready to come on just before half time, but was sat back down and hasn't come on for the second half either. I don't know who they were concerned about, I'd assumed Ethan Ross, but hopefully it's not a big gamble on anyone's fitness. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Ngwenya at LB versus Dick…Dick may be better than Nolan, but we need to develop Nolan for when O’Riordan leaves. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raith Against The Machine Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 This is the Sam Stanton I thought we were getting. He's been brilliant. 16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once Spencer joined Brown providing defensive spine, Stanton can maraud forward like that. Definitely an AM/Mid vs DM as his primary role. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ohnononowheredidRossgo Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 excellent performance. Thought Ngwenya and Stanton were stand-outs.Big John is ungainly but will definitely give us a different dimension, scores at the end if he doesn’t strike it so pure.Also really impressed by Millen today. I’d play Dick over Nolan at centre half if we aren’t playing against a big centre forward. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mealsonwheels Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 Yes that's the best team performance for a while. It's not every day you watch the Rovers and feel comfortable that you will get a result! Well done IM on the set up. Did think it was funny though when big John just tripped over his own feet 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirJimmyofNic Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 3 goals, a clean sheet and back to level goal difference, all in all its a pleasing Saturday Night 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CountryBumpkin Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 We looked great until half way through the second half when Cove woke up, but even then didn't feel like we were going to lose. Millen had his best game in a Rovers shirt for me, not that it was a high bar. Only poor performance was once again Ross. Not seen him have a good game all season yet. Stanton man of the match, was outstanding. Hopefully Spencer isn't injured again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raith_Raver Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 Yea, Stanton easily MotM for me. O'Riordan steady and dependable as usual. I thought Millen was playing well too until these two daft short passes to MacDonald with a Cove forward feet away I thought Longstaff looked good for them when he got on the ball. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
