| 84. Author: buffy Date: Sat 9th Mar 2024. 17:04 Apologies RMG I meant he’s still carrying a viral infection so not just tired as some allude to. ”Buffy’s Buns are the finest in Fife”, J. Spence 2019” Post Edited (Sat 09 Mar 17:07) Reply |
| 85. Author: OzPar Date: Sat 9th Mar 2024. 17:04 We are a blunt pencil. We have zero goalscoring ability. We are in deep trouble and will be deeper by Friday night. Relegation playoffs look a certainty right now. Reply |
| 86. Author: Bannockburn Par Date: Sat 9th Mar 2024. 17:06 Berkey, Sat 09 Mar 16:49 Yeah massive headache as both are not good enough. Hopefully we avoid the playoffs and have some sort of clear out. Reply |
| 87. Author: Never10yairds Date: Sat 9th Mar 2024. 17:08 Despite controlling large parts of that game today we lose out after make t a couple of stupid errors. Even when we were controlling the game we never really looked like scoring my apart from Otoo’s effort from outside the box. We lack the killer instinct to beat teams. This squad needs a big overhaul in the summer regardless of what league we end up playing in next year. Reply |
| 88. Author: Dunc1978 Date: Sat 9th Mar 2024. 17:09 Otoo looked like our only attacking threat and he was substituted for god knows what reason. Reply |
| 89. Author: Berry Date: Sat 9th Mar 2024. 17:10 To get this game out of the way with the other results as they fell, I would’ve probably taken it. Reply |
| 90. Author: da_no_1 Date: Sat 9th Mar 2024. 17:16 Just back from the game. Didn`t see Berkey funnily enough. I didn`t expect much today but at least we gave Raith a game this time. 2-0 was a bit harsh but they have good players who can win a game on their own. A homer ref also helps. Some genuinely shocking decisions. Unfortunately we don`t have the quality required to win a game like that and that needs addressed in the summer if we`re going to progress "Some days will stay a 1000 years, some pass like the flash of a spark" Reply |

| 92. Author: Bucuresti Par Date: Sat 9th Mar 2024. 17:16 I`ve seen that film many times and it doesn`t get any more enjoyable. Decent first half, soft goal conceded out of nothing, got in to some good positions but no quality. A bit of a flurry early on in the second half but then very little, daft second goal and pathetic subs by McPake again. Otoo was comfortably our best player, so take him off? Matty Todd was poor again, leave him on. Summers was also quite lively so take him off. Stick rigidly with a 3 at the back in the second half, even when we are now no longer looking threatening. Don`t use Moffat at all, even though he`s looked good recently and is suited to an artificial surface. McPake talks pre-game about being disciplined and within 2 minutes he`s being spoken to by the referee - yes he was hopeless, but whining at him is only going to hurt our chances of getting 50/50 decisions.

| 94. Author: Dave_1885 Date: Sat 9th Mar 2024. 17:22 4 league defeats, a cup defeat and a draw we shouldnt have got this season v the Rovers - what a record 😂😂 Did the players and manager not get the memo at FT either? Seemed a bit weird the length of time and the looks on their faces as they stood clapping whilst not getting much in return….. Reply |
| 95. Author: da_no_1 Date: Sat 9th Mar 2024. 17:25 Dave_1885, Sat 9 Mar 17:22 And if they headed straight down the tunnel what would you have thought? "Some days will stay a 1000 years, some pass like the flash of a spark" Reply |
| 96. Author: Toddyrov Date: Sat 9th Mar 2024. 17:26 Still completely mystified to why otoo came off Effe Reply |
| 97. Author: buffy Date: Sat 9th Mar 2024. 17:28 Perhaps McPake will say why post match. Might have motioned to bench to come off? ”Buffy’s Buns are the finest in Fife”, J. Spence 2019” Reply |
| 98. Author: Parsweep Date: Sat 9th Mar 2024. 17:29 Me too ! Baffling substitution . Not the first time McPakes subs have had us scratching our heads . Probably deserved something out of that game but too powder puff in the final third . Bobvo Reply |
| 99. Author: Dave_1885 Date: Sat 9th Mar 2024. 17:29 da_no_1, Sat 9 Mar 17:25 Id have been perfectly fine with it, just like I would have been with them walking to the edge of the box then turning round……what was the need to stand for 2 minutes applauding a fan base that was giving you pelters? 🤔 Reply |
| 100. Author: Berkey Date: Sat 9th Mar 2024. 17:33 Otoo may have come off to get the battering ram McCann on to get stuck in, win headers and demolish their backline while banging in a few goals…. No I don’t know why he came off either…. The post below replying to me is by one of .nets finest champions of mediocrity! Reply |
