Our home form has been very flat and if we don't change our ways we could be edging towards the relegation spot. Stranraer will be ready for a battle today- will we? Thanks Bucky, I was not going to go today, but your positive post spurred me on......thank you ! it was a good entertaining match and three points ! Great shout Charlie!!

That was a great game and a great 3 points. Needed something from the game today and that was typical of 3 points which could really make a difference come the end of the season. No idea where the ref was finding his added time right enough, no so sure I could go through that every week when your only winning by the odd goal. Well done to the lads and management.

Partly because we brought on McCann as a sub. Funny thing about McCann and I noticed this last week too. First thing he does is tuck his shirt in. Right in, tight all the way round. Looks a bit odd, but very smart I guess. ha ha I noticed this also ! My son Bobby's (wee sneaky hat trick on his birthday today) team play on a Saturday morning - I tell them all to tuck their jerseys in, bit of the OCD in me likes to see the kids all smart... Until today I'd never noticed the Rovers - everyone apart from McCann had his shirt hanging oot ! superb 3 points and what a collection of beers from the Rovers bar ! Magic day all round !

Great win today for Rovers, but were still leaking alot of goals, which is a worry.

I would've accepted a point before the game but excellent battling performance and pass marks for most. Long season and we'll do well to keep everyone fit and fighting for a shirt. If we do, top 4 is a definite reality. To be perfectly honest we can play some decent fitba and the constant long ball is not this team at it best. But good to see us adapt if needed. Really enjoyed game today.

The team might be doing ok, but that "legendary " trio (along with Devlin) have left the club financially over committed, back in debt and a rather large black hole to fill for the remainder of the season. Financial mismanagement is the words I would use. I look forward to your future ill informed views . Thanks for the opportunity Chuckwagon

It does make McCann look like he's about 10 years old but it's obviously just what he does. Well done to young Bobby. Maybe a solution to our number 10 dilemma?

Great game, really from both sides - Stranraer fought all the way, nerve wracking at the finish, extended by at least 5 minutes but we held on to take 3 valuable points. Totally worth the longish journey, seems like I've been celebrating since!(except of course for remembrance). Especially pleased to see Fish on from the beginning. Agree D7's extensive & thorough coverage - yes, 10 out of 11 plus the substitutes, hate to exclude anyone but Paul not doing it for me either. Maybe a chance to give the newer lads a bit more airing? Sampled the new bar for the first time and though only had tea, appreciated the hospitality to warm me up for the journey home.

Just a bit of footage from yesterdays game. Concentrates on their pressure.... but its their video. Some stout defending and not much question about the pen decision. youtu.be/7p9RONqzH-c

Good stuff, pity videoing games is not on our list of priorities - but that - see Bucky`s comments above is the least of our worries

Do we know what the financial position is in £'s?

What a wonderful set of highlights!! Began with the end of the game, cut to the beginning, onto the middle and then back to the end again! That's genius! I'm guessing from the thank you's at the end they were videoed by separate people and then spliced together. I genuinely like that! The very essence of lower league football!
Penalty was a stonewaller but there was a wee sneaky potential handball that Stranraer maybe could have had.
Good to see us getting a few things going our way.

Do we know what the financial position is in £'s? Not good. The Chairman is currently getting to grips to see where the club stands financially.
