A good industrious and spirited performance today. Despite the loss of 2 criminal goals we still maintained the momentum to drive forward and unsettle East Fife on numerous occasions. Thoroughly deserved 3 points and should bolster increasing confidence in the coming weeks/months - no major heart flutters at the end - defence behaved themselves to the finish !

The usual goals bonanza that we've come to expect in Rovers games this season.
Gotta love the "as long as we score more than them" mentality!!!
Some first half and 3 vital points to boot.
Amazing the number of goals scored by Messrs Trouten & Shields already this season.
ONWARDS AND UPWARDS!!!!!!

A brilliant 3 points it actually felt like a 4-0 win. Really battled in the second half and totally deserved the win.
I would swap a battling performance like this every week until the end of the season. Fish was my MoTM.
Any word on Trouten

A couple of other quick points - how honking was that EF purple strip FFS? On a par with that luminous green and black Stranraer monstrosity. And Rovers thoroughly deserved that win today. EF were pretty dire in the second half.
3 great points and an interesting game next week against QP. 3 points there would do just nicely thanks very much.
Any news on Bowman? I'm guessing the silence means there's been a wee falling out maybe?

From what I’m told Bowman has been struggling with some personal issues and would wish him well for the future.

Potts has been doing quite well. He’s still young & inexperienced but a promising keeper.

Yeah Potts wasn't too clever at the 2nd goal. And at the first goal he kind of went down before the initial shot came in and then got back up again, but his positioning didn't look too clever. To be fair he was probably watching the defending in front of him through the cracks in his fingers - I know I was. Ultimately unlucky as it looked like the shot was deflected over him.

Great result
Wish Rovers would stop giving the other team a one goal start (usually within first 5 mins)
We have the top goal scorer in the Divison (Alan Trouten with 14 goals)
Manager needs to strengthen defence in January.

Bernie Slaven's 30-odd in the mid 1980s is under threat. 22 and not even half-way through the season.
