But, remember we were no great shakes in that first half and didn't really start playing until Zanatta came on. Also, the league form does not lie, 10 point from the last 45 with a single win. That's relegation form. |

Given the number of players we have under contract, the latter is unlikely. See the 2022-2023 Team thread in Teamtalk. |

I hesitate to mention it, and note that no-one else has, but some of the behaviour of the young team was totally unacceptable.
The continual chants about the late Norrie McCathie (who died young in tragic circumstances ) were disgusting.
Pulling up seats and throwing them was dangerous. I've now heard that one sizeable piece of sharp plastic narrowly missed a girl
and landed at her feet and just behind other of our supporters. Yes, there was some kick-back from our fans but we cannot continue
to praise the young team unreservedly. I don't know if these louts are regular attenders or tag along just to make trouble at certain
matches but they bring shame on the Club. |

Totally agree. While they bring a great atmosphere at times, there is always an element that want to bring the unacceptable side of it, same with the flares at the cup game last weekend as well. |

Correct. We will be billed for the damage to the pitch last week. There is definitely a number of low life within their group.
I don't get how at home we don't have a steward standing next to them. Whilst I accept that the stewards powers are limited, they may well act as a deterrent. |

The Norrie McCathie chants are bang out of order. |

. I was not aware of this problem other than the flare, which in itself is dangerous and STUPID.
The morons responsible for this need to be caught and banned.
Is there camara evidence?
I do believe the atmosphere is enhanced by the singing etc but this has to stop.
Does CCTV exist at the SAN Starko ?
I’ve never noticed . .
CCTV is no doubt costly but in today’s climate I would have thought it justified.
I think I was young once, pretty sure I was stupid as well, but not in that way!
Pretty much every other way though.
The older amongst us will get my drift  _________________ Born a Rover Live a Rover Die a Rover |

The CCTV was upgraded at Starks Park last year(?) It is only as good as having the camera pointed in the right place though. _________________ Hope he's got plenty Rovers action to comment on tonight.... |
