| 1. Author: Pringlebum8 Date: Fri 31st Oct 2025. 20:08 Why can’t we do any decent throw-in’s, week after week I’m watching our guys with no idea who to throw to and as shown tonight, thrown to the opposition! Reply |

| 6. Author: desparado Date: Fri 31st Oct 2025. 22:55 It bugs me too. I have watched Rovers on many an occasion against us being inventive at throw ins. Ball to Vaughn who lets the ball come across his body, spin and shoot. They may have got their second goal at Starks earlier in the season doing this. It rips my knitting that we just seem to meekly give up possessions almost every time we have a throw in.. What an opportunity we missed in 2014. Reply |

| 8. Author: DBA Date: Fri 31st Oct 2025. 23:22 PARrot, Fri 31 Oct 23:06 Definitely wouldn`t speed things up. They`d become like free kicks and would waste a good minute every time. Reply |

Author: Stanza Date: Fri 31st Oct 2025. 23:39 DBA, Fri 31 Oct 23:22 I would be happy with the spot on the touchline being marked, but you would either need to have the assistant referee run the whole length of the line (as in rugby) or make the referee responsible. _________________ Support Dunfermline Athletic Disabled Supporters` Club (DADSC) when you shop online with one of 8000 firms: http://www.easyfundraising.org.uk/causes/dadsc[Reply |
| 10. Author: RhinoPars Date: Sat 1st Nov 2025. 00:15 The refs let players get away with too much trodswalloping down the touchline. Starts with a gentle walk for a few meters from the wrong place and then a run up going down the line another few metres. Reply |
| 11. Author: MinnesotaAndy Date: Sat 1st Nov 2025. 09:27 Would a rule stating a thrown-in must be taken from a standing position (i.e. no run up) help? And there could be a 10 yard backwards penalty if the throw-in is not taken where the referee indicates. The referee can just wave an arm until the player is in the right spot. Reply |
| 12. Author: thebear Date: Sat 1st Nov 2025. 09:55 Lets simply get pars players to move and prodice situation where they have reasonable chance, not change rules because we are crap at it Reply |
| 13. Author: LochgellyAlbert Date: Sat 1st Nov 2025. 10:04 MinnesotaAndy, Sat 1 Nov 09:27 Does the throw in not go to the opposition if it`s taken in wrong spot? Although it seems it`s never invoked!🤔 Reply |
| 14. Author: Pringlebum8 Date: Sat 8th Nov 2025. 17:59 We must have been practicing our throw-in’s this week…maybe next week we can go on to corner kicks!!! Reply |

| 17. Author: Parsweep Date: Sun 9th Nov 2025. 10:28 LochgellyAlbert, Sun 9 Nov 10:19 Because it worked once doesn`t mean you try it every single time! After about the 5th one went wrong yesterday , you`d think we might try varying it a wee bit . Bobvo Reply |
| 18. Author: dd23 Date: Sun 9th Nov 2025. 13:14 Our first goal yesterday came from a throw in. Granted it was a St Johnstone throw in, but don’t let the facts get in the way of a good story😜 Reply |
