According to Mr. W Boot I seem to be on a lucky streak.

So early days but continuing on from the grit and guts from today - let's top the league!!

Willie you are our rabbits foot so let’s hope the winning luck continues.

Home win and hopefully we clinch it way before the last kick of the ball for a change

Forgotten man Ross Matthews could return against Partick Thistle as Raith Rovers enjoy triple injury boost http://dlvr.it/SzndJX

Hope that this isn't a curse posting this?

Typical BBC reporting, if its not a team from the west, they don't do their homework........"local lad Lewis Vaughan".

Also say it’s our “1st chance” to overtake Utd…

After 5 games we were 2pts clear of them



*One point they make which I never really considered but is a good one…we were the only side with nothing to play for at end of season…not making play offs might actually have been a blessing!… everyone else had games to worry about and also the prospect of playing in a completely different division the following season while we were ahead of the curve identifying players, sounding them out…all in the knowledge of where we would be and what our targets were for ‘this’ season. The early business seems to have worked out well

THAT.......is an excellent point.
I never thought of that myself.
If we finish in a playoff spot ourselves this year, it could well be a headache for ourselves.

Am sure that was discussed on here last year. Due to knowing what league we were in, there were various comments about getting players tied down as we would know our budget.

Looks like it may only be Watson injured for this one. What a great headache for IM to have with his selections.

IM certainly got plenty of really good players signed/ re-signed, but will the club be in a financial position IF we are in the playoffs, to be able to keep or not sell.

Good headache to have but nonetheless, a headache.. Confused

That's potentially a very strong starting eleven.
So strong we can afford to have the club captain sitting on the bench. Quite some strength on the bench as well.
Fingers crossed for the result we all want.🤞

What a bench. When did we last have those options.

Great to see Sir Jimmy in attendance tonight. Wonder what he will say to Alex Penman, should he be in attendance also.

Water under the bridge a long time ago on that one as far as I was aware. But maybe not 🤔
