Two games gone, beat again, and no one scoring goals, this is a problems, we need a striker, 4 games to go john Brogan to fix it, by that time all the teams will be way a head in the league.

Ive not been to a game this season yet mainly due to work so cant comment on performances but going by results it doesnt look like getting better anytime soon. I was gona go to edinburgh on tuesday night but now im not so sure. A heavy defeat on tuesday and id sack the manager before this gets any worse.

We started better than last week but............. 6 competitive matches, 6 losses. 20 goals conceded and none scored, it doesn't get any worse than that!
I don't know what we can do within our budget to improve it and don't pretend to have the answer.

A very difficult watch for everyone at the club today. We looked shapeless, gutless, and bereft of ideas. Perplexed by Brogan’s decision to field a lone striker. McAllister, Lyle, and Gibson strolled through the game. They’ll never have an easier 90 minutes again. Silence at half-time and, again, at the final whistle. Says it all really.

4-0 Peterhead. It must be a confidence booster for all teams coming to play rovers at the moment. My first time getting a rovers scoreline correct. Here’s the thoughts from a neutral at today’s game “Word of warning I wouldn’t bet the Rovers to score or win this season. They’re rotten 😂”

I remember the wilderness years of 1993-1999 when we seemed to be the regular whipping boys and on the end of 8-0 Ross County/ 8-1 Brechin /6-1 Inverness etc etc. We are now in imminent danger of a return to that period. A bit similar - players who were not comfortable or could not adapt to senior league football. We lack a creative forward who can anticipate/think ahead and hold on to possession to allow players to feed of him. All teams in this league have these type of guys - we seem at this stage to be an exception. Critical time !

Manager and the entire team outside Fish, Wharton and the keeper (potentially) should be away now. There's a reason there's a pyramid or tiered system in fitba. It's because for each layer you go down, the quality goes down too. How basic is it? Whoever thought signing junior players because they would be up to L2 standard was kidding themselves on. And with our money too.
Nothing to add - at the moment anyway - to what I said after the Edinburgh game last week. Except that I was wrong again when I said it was an accident waiting to happen. It's now a car crash.
At least Cowdenbeath and Stirling are keeping it interesting at the bottom. At least until they play us ...................

If this is what we have to go forward with for the remainder of the season i cant see it working sorry. as mentioned its to much of an ask and jump for majority of our team to come from bottom reaches of the junior game and straight into league two,some of them wouldnt get a game in higher teams in junior set up. Dismal.
