It is clear there are a number of players in the current squad Murray does not rate. You just need to look at those not getting game time even when the 11 on the park are out on their feet. I fully expect Murray to move a lot of players on, if possible, before bringing in players that fit how he wants to play the game.

Gillespie comes across as a good guy to have around but his contribution on the park is relatively limited. My concern with retaining him as a squad player is the limited impact he makes when coming on as a sub. I have no ill feeling to the guy but I hope Murray is looking to upgrade.

As provincial football fans we tend to be optimists even if most seasons are an ordeal. Voting yes is an act of faith. In our current circumstances, it is a struggle to identify an alternative suitor to take us forward. I look at the teams in the Scottish Cup semifinals and think why not us. With Dalrada heading for the exit, I just hope Estrella are the people to help us move on.

Today was disappointing and it is difficult to avoid the criticism it is most likely due to a lack of squad rotation. Murray clearly does not trust some in the squad.

The stats certainly seem to suggest we are second best today.

McPherson was fine yesterday. His passing was good and I struggle to recollect any chances for Raith due to his perceived defensive lapses. I also don't get the negativity for Shaw yesterday. I suspect Garrity was hooked because he was getting little joy out of the Raith defender and the quality of his balls into the box, once again, was not great. Shaw was no better or worse. He at least put in some tackles and blocks which is not a side to his game where he excels. People just seem to have fixed views on some players.

Both teams cancelled each other out. Little in the way of goalmouth action. Our final ball and decision making was our Achilles heel but otherwise it was a solid performance. Room for improvement but you can see progress under Murray.

Looks like Imrie jumped from one shit show into another. Raith's major backer walking away, no GM, a lack of Board members, no money for transfers, fans arguing among themselves...

Corr moving on is the best thing for both parties. It never worked for the lad at Morton but I hope it clicks for him at Kelty. As for the incomings we can but hope they push us on but realistically if they help us get in the boring middle of the table they will be viewed as a success.

If he can play at centre back he might have to stay.

Murray has commented in the Tele, every club around us is being offered the same limited number of players in this window. He is hoping for some activity this week but realistically accepts he will not get everything he wants. As for LargsTON, I hope he keeps posting. This forum should not just be a closed group for people that happen to agree with your point of view.

Not picky just looking to bump your gums. Last week it was jumping on the back of Murray after one game in charge and now you are looking for the medical records of the squad to be sent to you before every game. If you were at the Stenhousemuir game you may have noticed Moore signaling to the bench he had an injury and needed to come off while Crawford, making his return from injury, came on as a sub and in a blink of an eye pulled up holding the back of his leg. With no more subs available Crawford looked to be encouraged to stay on the park. If medical expertise is having eyes and watching the game - guilty.

Moore and Crawford were both clearly injured during the Stenhousemuir game.

Talk about taking yourselves too seriously. My comment was in jest at the hyperbolic nonsense after Murray has been in charge for one game. Anyone at the game could see the core issue was players failing to do their basic defensive duties. Murray was going apoplectic on the sidelines. Once we were chasing the game Murray had limited options given the injuries on the park and what was on the bench. This is down to the bloated squad assembled by Imrie.

The only problem might be - you cannae polish a turd.
