Robbed.
They had 2 shots of target. We should have scored 3 in thr first half. Sore one.

Ultimately, the aim of the game is to score goals. We had a dozen clear chances throughout the match and converted none of them. Disappointed but not disheartened.
If we play like this next Saturday we'll hammer Kelty.
Also, my MoM was Lewis Wilson or Max Wright.

Agree with the previous comments, that was a real sore one leaving today. A completely different game from Wednesday despite the loss. With a bit of luck we would have been a couple up after 20 minutes. We do seem to be really low in confidence in front of goal.
Not sure on the penalty decision with my view but it was certainly not an Edinburgh free kick which gave them the opportunity to get the ball in there. The standard of refereeing at times this year has been shocking.
Lewis Wilson for me was MOTM but everyone gave everything.

Better performance than Wednesday which wouldn't have been hard but not taking our chances cost us dear again aided and abetted by another typically biased performance from Voldemort Newlands. He really is a total @#*&!

Enjoyable enough game with a marked improvement in Rovers form today. Missed a hatful of chances and only really have ourselves to blame.
Couldn’t see if it was a penalty but there was no need for Binnie to clatter in the way he did, giving that kn0b of a ref a decision to make. And boy he couldn’t wait to give a penalty.
It’s gonna be tight at the end of the season. We might just stay in L2; we might not.

Performance wise there is very little to criticise about the team. First half was just bad luck and good goalkeeping that stopped us from scoring. We did have a couple of gilt edged chances in the second half which should have won us the game.
Shocking decision for the penalty - I was standing behind the goal and Ouzy was over the byline when he decided to lie down. In hindsight Binnie would probably have been better to kick the ball into Albion Street rather than usher it out. It was a real blow not to get anything from that game as we brace ourselves for a Kelty double header.

A much improved performance. We played with skill, energy and commitment. Disappointment doesn’t cover the feelings after taking nothing from that match.

Very disappointing to see a former player cheat to 'win' a penalty. [No other word for it: cheat. He thought it was very funny when he was coming off at the end. Rovers played very well and it was a total travesty that such a negative, diving team absolutely stole the points. Referee, yet again, got his wee bit of drama by awarding a penalty. So predictable. Rovers need fear no one in the run in: get stuck in!!!

That was a kick in the sore bits. That's a Covid symptom I had not heard about. Unfortunate ending. Onwards and upwards.

I was talking to that commentator bloke at half time as I recognised him from Rovers games at Ainslie Park this season. He popped out of the ground to smoke, as I do. A decent guy to talk to and said Rovers should have been well in front. I also saw Ousy See's car outside the ground on the main street. You couldn't miss his number plate if you saw it, obviously not the sharpest tool in the box with that registration plate and his reactions at the end of the game. If I was younger and more daft I would have been tempted to vandalise his motor but his problem for being an idiot not mine.

Oh my word. I wish I hadn't watched that now. He is actually well out of the park and throws a dive. Ousy See you are a disgrace. A cheat. Absolutely dreadful. I am embarrassed that you ever played for us. Unbelievable decision to award a penalty.
