Don’t see a problem with Nialls interviews. And yes he gives his time as a volunteer. Good on you Niall.


Tifo
(especially at soccer games) a choreographed display in which fans in a sports stadium raise a large banner together or simultaneously hold up signs that together form a large image.

Mair bedsheets incoming, methinks 🙄

Apology accepted - I jumped on your comment (possibly harder than was appropriate), as discussing injuries is something that (as others have pointed out above) gives the opposition insight into our lineup and is something everyone wants to avoid.

Already forgotten about Smile

Very gracious, Niall.
Rightly, I have been feeling bad about my ill thought out comments. Re-reading them made me realise exactly why you took offence ( as what was in my head seemed different to how it could be interpreted on the page)so would I have.
Anyway, many thanks again and keep up the good work!
C' mon The Rovers

Well, not everyone…but I understand the desire of the team to limit info, and the restrictions on your questions as a result. It does beg a question:

In American sports, due to betting occurring, rules have become standard mandating disclosure of certain facts about players who may or will miss a game by certain times. Do any exist for football in the UK?

It’s interesting, as many of the laws/rules came about due to pressure from the betting industry to provide a level field. But, even so, betting is smaller (comparatively) in the U.S.

I can’t see Easton being left out and I feel Ross deserves a start but where do they both fit in?

Going by the Pars ticket page, two of the five sections full and about half each of a further two sections.

What does stand hold? 3000?

I don't think we got tickets for the section nearest Halbeath Road, just the 4 sections after that, as you said.

With Dunfermline selling the tickets,unless they tell our club we wont know how many have been sold

We were given 4 sections and looking at the ticket page reckon theres only 200 or so left,so a healthy loking away support

Away stand holds just over 3000

Ps

Handful of tickets short of selling out away end
