63. Author: TAFKA_Super_Petrie Date: Fri 22nd Aug 2025. 20:39 That angle from behind the goals of the Stevenson challenge is a shocker. Gave him benefit of doubt initially but from that angle it looks 100% intentional. Cowards challenge going like that leading with the elbow. --------------------------------------------------------------- ![]() [b]"People always talk about Ronaldinho and magic, but I didn't see him today.

64. Author: desparado Date: Fri 22nd Aug 2025. 20:39 Nothing positive to say. Fraser looks shaky. Otoo and ToB in particular have been dreadful..they just chase shadows. Gilmour can’t do it all. Amade needs to come on. What an opportunity we missed in 2014. Reply |
65. Author: red-star-par Date: Fri 22nd Aug 2025. 20:39 Men against boys so far. I guess that`s what happens when you are putting lads up against guys who probably have 10 years of professional experience more than them. It`s just know how. Scott Brown is bossing it, he should have been the player we tried to sign, in every transfer window over the last 3 years. We just need that sort of team man that can pull a team performance together. Otoo and Oakley- you`d hardly know they were playing. I`m actually finding myself feeling that being on the wrong end of a pumping here tonight might not be the worst thing that could happen. Nothing to paper over the cracks, let Lennon and the owners know what we need before the transfer window closes Reply |
66. Author: Parster Date: Fri 22nd Aug 2025. 20:40 Second best all over the park to a very poor rovers team Reply |
67. Author: Rusty Shackleford Date: Fri 22nd Aug 2025. 20:41 It was excellent till the match started. Reply |
68. Author: DBA Date: Fri 22nd Aug 2025. 20:41 Time for Lennon to earn his pennies. Cos that was as bad as Tidserball. Reply |
69. Author: Raymie the Legend Date: Fri 22nd Aug 2025. 20:41 Tonight shows why I’ve been calling for some experienced heads in key positions for almost two months. 9 days left now. ![]() It`s bloody tough being a legend Ron Atkinson - 1983 Reply |
70. Author: MinnesotaAndy Date: Fri 22nd Aug 2025. 20:42 Poor first half from the Pars. Maybe the fans should sing: Plastic road, you will end us all... take me home to grass an all... Reply |
71. Author: Buster_Brown Date: Fri 22nd Aug 2025. 20:43 Same players that let us down time and time again last season let us down in that half. Since coming back after the summer, JCM looks like a total bombscare and it’s no surprise it was his mistake that cost us. Hope Lennon is going through them, and rings the changes! Reply |
72. Author: Indiapar1 Date: Fri 22nd Aug 2025. 20:44 I think the shape needs to change and we need to step it up second half. I still think they will flag around 60 minutes but we will need to be on it G Wardrope Reply |
73. Author: Steviethepar2 Date: Fri 22nd Aug 2025. 20:51 Strange game we look no shape and like we e never seen an artificial pitch Rovers just running about like headless chickens breaking up the play On that note how’s Easton not booked for 3-4 fouls and laughing at ref every time he falls over and Stevenson should have been red carded Reply |
74. Author: Clapham Par Date: Fri 22nd Aug 2025. 20:51 Same team sent out in same shape with a rocket up their backside. Not an unusual tactic but never sure what the point is. Manager shouts "please try harder"? Surely a stronger message to hook the worst of the underachievers and try something new? Reply |
75. Author: onandupthepars Date: Fri 22nd Aug 2025. 20:53 We`re not gelling - we need to leave less space for them, and we need to take on and beat a man more often. Plus we`ve had little in the way of penetrating balls into their box - incisive passes or crosses, almost non-existent. We need Chris Kane to hold up the ball at the front and to ask harder questions of their defence. They`re worth their lead, the old heads are playing a smart game. We`re not in their faces enough. I think our players can learn plenty from this game - can they do it within the duration of the second 45? We`re getting into it. I think we can improve, second half. I don`t agree with those who`re saying it`s as bad as Tidser days. In those days we had nil potential. We`ve got potential now. Reply |
76. Author: Parster Date: Fri 22nd Aug 2025. 20:55 Still absolutely nothing up front Reply |
77. Author: Berkey Date: Fri 22nd Aug 2025. 20:56 Why are we playing long ball with players that don’t try to compete in the air or physically? Dodged one there! Post Edited (Fri 22 Aug 21:04) Reply |
78. Author: d3monstrate Date: Fri 22nd Aug 2025. 20:58 There`s not many teams that wouldn`t convert a ball like that from Cooper... Reply |
79. Author: Parster Date: Fri 22nd Aug 2025. 21:00 Our inability to put them under pressure is allowing them to attack us Reply |
80. Author: Parnott Date: Fri 22nd Aug 2025. 21:00 You wouldn`t know we were playing a derby match. Raith are up for it. We look terrified. Reply |
