There’s enough desire on the park that should see the casual punter return. Just over 2100 with - I think - just under 400 Thistle fans. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zen Archer (Raconteur) Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Today is the 4th time I've watched Lewis take to the pitch after recovery, if he could make this the last time that would be great, I'm fed up welling up and looking like a softy* * I'm so fucking proud of his attitude and his devotion to Raith Rovers. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hank Scorpio Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 (edited) First is such a good strike, isn’t it? Uses the defender and just guides it round him into the top corner. Satisfying the way it hits the net, as well. Second one - it’s nice that, whilst we can play some great football at times, we can also chuck it in the box and make chances that way. For all that we were excellent to watch under McGlynn, you felt that every goal had to be a well worked team effort and it’s nice to just throw it in the box and score a sclaff every now and then. The third is probably of the soft variety, but you’ll take them all day. Really enjoyable Saturday.

Raith_Raver Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 I've watched many Rovers Thistle matches and every one has been a clean sporting game, unlike some teams I can mention. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scary Bear Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 Great strike from Connolly. That’s some long throw for the second goal and a good finish. Really soft penalty. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WSDR 88 Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 Absolutely unreal Football the first half, working they triangles so well knocking it about. And then you’ve got the Goals, all excellent on their own merits. 2nd half, which is something I’m glad we’re adding in - was great game management. Huge opportunity next week, home to Hamilton to really kick us up the table - dinny f*ck it Rovers! COYR! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rovers_Lad Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 Great win Played some braw stuff in the 1st half and no need to go gung ho in the 2nd.We saw the game out with relative ease Comfortable win No soft penalty for me.Modern day football its a penalty all day long Fairly disappointing crowd given the bring a friend for a fiver deal.Lack of friends among adult season ticket holders? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having seen the replay I think it's actually Connell that's holding onto the defender. Very soft but the defender gets played and falls for it. Maybe he'll learn from that going forward. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foreverarover Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 We were shite but there's no way that's a penalty.If your a thistle fan you look at your centre half losing sight of a player standing next to him. Pulling back a player who was about 5 yards away from the flight of the cross. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scottydog Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 Thought we scored against the run of play but then we go and score again and it was only ever looking like a home win, despite having been here before (Hamilton!!). After the first two go in, things seem to go from bad to worse for Thistle as absolutely nothing goes right for them, for any other manager than McCall I may have felt a shred of sympathy for him but remembering his (and Fosters) antics at full-time at Firhill last year... f**k him! Great game management from Rovers to keep them quiet in the second half and special congrats to O'Riordan who despite his tender years plays like a veteran, what a talent that kid is. In retrospect he was my MotM. Good displays all round but I'd like to single out Millen and Connell the former for his solid play and the latter for doing a power of work that got us the 3 goals, they've taken pelters in recent weeks so it's only fair that we praise their efforts when they do well. Wonderful to see Vaughnny back, how we'd have loved it if he could have got a toe on the end of that late cross. If ever there was an example of how the importance of the 1st goal cannot be understated then this was it! Goals change games and had they scored 1st or got 1 (or 2) in the second half it could have been so different, kudos to GM and the team for so professionally seeing it out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
