Tremendous find Wolfie. Was sitting in the Railway Stand when it happened. One of those open mouth moments. Funny I didn't remember Hogg throwing the first punch.

Not related to Raith Rovers, the Jambos have been involved in another friendly match and are involved in a punch up in Spain yesterday.
Some club.

100 years since the famous shipwreck incident, I was aware, courtesy of the Purple TV documentary on BBC ALBA that the Rovers hitched a lift on the the boat returning Third Lanark from South America.
This popped up on the BBC website.

The club initially had problems assembling a travelling party and padded out the squad with guest players from Motherwell, Hamilton, Raith, Falkirk, Clyde and Alloa.


We must have had some team if we could tour the Canaries and loan out player(s) to the Hi Hi.

Great story about the canary tour on the main website. Some amazing facts. One player refusing to leave the pitch after a red card and two police needed. Winning 6 out 6. Players going on to represent Scotland. Kudos to whoever wrote that. Great read!
