Rid Skwerr Posted February 28, 2017 Report Share Posted February 28, 2017 Must be no keepers available for Rovers - their bench is listed as all midfielders, plus one attacker. How odd! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barney Rubble Posted February 28, 2017 Report Share Posted February 28, 2017 All three regular keepers injured and they've used all their loan options for the season. They were also refused a postponement by the powers that be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClydebankJag Posted February 28, 2017 Report Share Posted February 28, 2017 It's a strange choice to play him considering they could have played a trialist keeper. Can't help but think they were making a point after having their loan refused and the postponement request denied. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThickAsThieves Posted February 28, 2017 Report Share Posted February 28, 2017 (edited) Was going to stick £40 on Ayr but got a little greedy and opted to split it with £25 on Ayr and £15 on Ayr -1. Ended up shitting it in the 86th minute following on Sky Bet and seeing wave after wave of "Raith dangerous attack". I decided to cash out for a total loss of £1.48 instead of hanging on for what would have been a £5 profit. What an evening.

Roque Posted March 1, 2017 Report Share Posted March 1, 2017 It's a strange choice to play him considering they could have played a trialist keeper. Can't help but think they were making a point after having their loan refused and the postponement request denied. No trialists allowed for competitive games in the top two tiers.

Barney Rubble Posted March 1, 2017 Report Share Posted March 1, 2017 Did Stephen Docherty not replace the goalie once as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jag-O Posted March 1, 2017 Report Share Posted March 1, 2017 I seem to remember Stephen Docherty in goals too, possibly at Forthbank in the early '00s. Must be the shortest keeper we've had in a game for a long time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaggernaut Posted March 1, 2017 Report Share Posted March 1, 2017 I remember one brilliant save by Campbell, maybe pushing a header from a corner over the bar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

partickthedog Posted March 2, 2017 Report Share Posted March 2, 2017 (edited) Remember the Bud sending off at Forthbank. Ten men put in a great shift (even Quinton Jacobs dug in). Scott McLean scored his first Thistle goal and we ran out comfortable 0-2 victors. The defensive tactic was to station Brian Martin on the penalty spot. By the time an attacker had managed to run all the way round Martin, he was so exhausted, he had no strength left to shoot past Docherty.
