I add my grateful thanks to all at Raith TV. The last four posts , read as one, encapsulate all that I wished to say.

After waiting nearly two weeks for a statement, I now see that the next RaithTV product will be audio only for the Partick match. So we now have a makeshift Queens broadcast and a audio only Partick broadcast for February, quite the deal for us International Subscribers. Since the funds paid to RaithTV seem to be paid directly to the Club’s coffers, and since that money is helping payoff Our great mistake, I’d like an appropriate partial refund for my February payment, does anyone know who is left at Starks Park to address this matter? Certainly the provided service is no where near the advertised one now.

My thanks to the lads and lassies formerly at RaithTV, and I hope to return when they do to support a Community Club that is reflective of the community values and beliefs.

I am one of the many whose appreciation of Raith TV during lockdown cannot be quantified. Their coverage of home games, plus the quality of the football, literally kept me going through the long weeks of confinement to barracks. I shan't be needing their match coverage personally now that we're allowed back in to the ground, but whilst I respect absolutely Davie and Niall's standpoint, I find myself asking-'Who exactly are they hurting?' Does the club's hierarchy care about the coverage, or is it the viewers who are worse affected? The guys obviously enjoy a great rapport with the manager and playing staff and I always enjoy the weekly interviews.

You make a good point, again, westover. The Raith TV guys are actually hurting the very fans they have provided such wonderful service to and have rightly received nationwide acclaim for. I appreciate that they may feel their service is tainted with it's links to the club however, if any of the guys are still reading the forum, can I urge them to at least engage with the club again and see if there is a way forward for them to return to normal service.
I know they are greatly missed by home and away fans alike.

A fair question. Given that the matches are broadcast to both home and away fans, its an income stream to the club so they absolutely should be hurting by the decision of the Raith TV team and rightly so.

Echo that. Come on boys, missed by so many.

Certainly beats the ‘look at me’, attention seeking, repetitive, somewhat selfish, no good to anyone type posts from others.

Raith TV became an institution in itself over the years from its inception and has improved year by year to be one of the best streaming services in Scottish football.

This is welcomed news. It gives us supporters and especially the ones miles away from the club the chance to do what we all ultimately want to do, watch Raith Rovers.

I appreciate the decision, and am glad fans will be able use RaithTV once again, however I personally still need to see further action or plans at the Board/Ownership level before I feel comfortable paying for a service whose income goes into the General coffers. I hate to have this line, but it still seems the correct thing to do.

Welcome back to all the RaithTV volunteers, and I hope your return encourages more transparency and action from the top at RRFC.
