Malcolm said something like all these great players, pity they never played together as a team.
Football is a team game. What is the best Rovers team that you have watched?
The current group of players on song work really well as a team, and Paul Martin's team and the 88-89 team have all been great teams but I would go for Ralph Brand's team as my best Rovers team.
Department of wishful thinking, perhaps, but Ralph's team really ought to have achieved more, and would have done but for interference from on high.

89 team for me. Outstanding. Of course the current crop running them close. Would love to get a delorian style team bus to let the current team go back and play them to see who would edge it.

2011 promotion winning team, 2014 Scottish cup quarter final team, and 2015 league winning team all deserve some credit in my opinion

Its a close one for me between Paul Martin's play off winners and Darren Young's title winners. I'd have to go with the title winners as the league trophy is the ultimate prize and they had an excellent second season at a higher level

Got to be the 2015 league winners - some great teams in the past have pulled of some brilliant one-off victories but it takes a special team to win a league championship!

I'm torn between the 1989 Title winners and 2010 play-off champs.
Both similar in terms of coming off the back of some dismal seasons , no money etc. Also thought both teams were quite similar in style also.
The 2010 team just edges it as they were genuinely built over a couple seasons by the same manager with a shoestring budget. That team gave way more than what they ever took off the club- some great achievements after bouncing back from real low points- remember Sunnybank and losing to QP in the last second to hand Arbroath the title.
I don't have anything against the 2015 team who had the advantage of cash behind them - a superb season's performance I just feel the team from 2010 were the true essence of the club- real underdogs
