Said to my lad last week against Morton, if we win we will go next week. Draw or lose I ain’t going. I’m a long term supporter and have always had the belief that I didn’t really care about results as long as I saw the team try. Recently my heart is changing and I’d rather keep my money in my pocket than pay to watch poor performance every week. So I will not be going to Kirkcaldy

Raith have had a poor season but in players like Easton they have someone who can change a game and hence will always pick up points. They just have better players than us although not in every position.

Unfortunately, I can’t see anything other than a 1-0 or 2-0 defeat for us. Apart from one freak game we’ve been nothing short of dire on the road.

We don’t appear to have anything going for us, we’re in the home stretch and not one player is in form or has been in form this season, the new guys bar one haven’t settled in or have settled in but we’re not good enough to start with.

The post below replying to me is by one of .nets finest champions of mediocrity!

I’ll be going along but not expecting much tbh. More in hope that we may have at least an attempt this week.

Our away form is terrible and we haven’t won at Starks in any of our last 10 visits.

Only two definite things I can see happening on Friday are a Rovers win and Yeboah somehow lasting 90 mins.

Been to every game this season but with playing a six pointer against accies like a friendly and the utter sh1te the last two games I`m done with it for a few weeks at least. Completely scunnered right now.

I think the majority of fans are PARadise.

We don’t get much enjoyment or excitement watching this team recently. When we don on the odd occasion such as second half v Morton but it’s too few moments like that.

If we get beaten on Friday night which I think we will, what an incentive that will give Hamilton and Airdrie to get a result on Saturday, then we will be in serious trouble.

Just had a check regarding Airdrie - Livi head to heads and never realised that Livi have won their last 11 visits to Airdrie.

I`m exactly the same. Leaving work early and loosing money to go to Hamilton and watch that **** was the last straw for me after the airdrie game. That`s the last away game this year for me.
If a didn`t have a season ticket I wouldny be back this year atall

Cmon ye pars

Not for me unfortunately. On the TV and that is it.

Hope the boys turn up. We desperately need them to.

Not going to the Livi game either as I have decided doing family things that are more entertaining.

Turned up to the Falkirk game, probably more in hope than expectation of us picking up a vital 3 points and putting a dent in falkirk`s title hopes.

Another lacklustre performance and style set up by a manager who is prioritising his own lunacy over the survival of the club. There is no way it suddenly clicks for these guys (many of whom will be off in the summer regardless).

We may pick up 3 points on Saturday through sheer willpower of our handful of decent players, but I can`t continue to watch this dreadful product. There`s no sense of urgency to our play despite our position.

The worry for me is that Tidser bemoans "the final third", I actually think that`s the least of our problems. Tobi being instructed to roll it out slowly to a defender before we aimlessly pass it around the back 10 times, then either trying to thread an impossible pass or usually launching it out of desperation for the opposition to gobble up.

Look at how Falkirk counter attacked at speed, put weighted passes behind the fullback to make it difficult to defend. We don`t create chances because the tempo of our play is at a snail`s pace with players who don`t have the passing or control for possession football. You actually saw in the last 10-15 minutes we started moving the ball faster and creating space in the wide areas which led to a few opportunities, why can`t we start and play games like that rather than treating it as a last resort?

The simple reason was the introduction of Taylor Clarke and removing Otoo from the midfield. Gave us a 2nd option, like Falkirk had the whole game. We could then break the lines and get forward.

In simple terms, if you want to play like this, you need a better footballer than Otoo. He`s good at getting about the park and putting in a tackle but don`t ask him to receive the ball and find a pass.

It`s a good point, Taylor Clarke added a bit of tempo and improved passing when he came on. I haven`t seen anything from Otoo or Oakley Boothe in recent weeks to suggest they should be starting, certainly not in the way Tidser is wanting them to play.
