Of course, that could change tomorrow night. You never know, maybe Stevenson's a great keeper. Faraway, what's the odds on Ayr not to score tonight? 15/4 Ayr not to score.

MarkL Posted February 28, 2017 Report Share Posted February 28, 2017 Aye, telling me to stop talking pish and some people are on another planet isn't insulting in the slightest. I hope Stvenson has a blinder. You were there the one calling me a drama queen for showing concern that St Mirrens nearest opponent have a MASSIVE advantage tonight [emoji847]So you deserve to be insulted [emoji12] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Ninjas Posted February 28, 2017 Report Share Posted February 28, 2017 Got Radio Shortbread on in the background, my ears pricked up when i heard the Raith Manager say something about the saints fans should be furious. This is a scandal, by the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However imagine Rangers or Celtic were playing Hamilton on the last game of a season where they had to win by 5 goals or more to win the league and Hamilton had no recognised keeper.

Al Bundy Posted February 28, 2017 Report Share Posted February 28, 2017 The under 20 goalie is apparently registered as an amateur and therefore not eligible to play tonight. If they converted him to a paid pro then some former club in Australia would be entitled to a development fee. Seemingly Raith Rovers asked Doncaster and Ian Blair of the SPFL for a postponement but were denied, Raith then asked for their request to go before the whole SFPL board only to be denied again. The SPFL board consists of Lawwell, Ann Budge, Leeann Dempster amongst others. What are the chances Raith will have signed Manuel Neuer on an emergency loan by a week on Wednesday?

I'm imagining this conversation: RR: Our keepers are injured, can we postpone the game. SPFL: Can't you field an U20 keeper? RR: We don't have any. SPFL: Eh?

HSS Posted February 28, 2017 Report Share Posted February 28, 2017 The situation has changed. Raith could have signed a well known,out of contract,Keeper until the end of the season.Raith refused to pay the guy what he was looking for. They couldn't use the loan system as they have used their quota of loan signings. Useless Kirkcaldy F'kers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balmullo Bud Posted February 28, 2017 Report Share Posted February 28, 2017 It sounds like Raith have made an utter arse of their keeper situation, but I wonder if the SFA asked Hibs if the had an u20s defender that they could play before giving permission for the Ambrose 'emergency' loan??Hopefully he has a few costly howlers tomorrow night.

Sonny Posted February 28, 2017 Report Share Posted February 28, 2017 (edited) Raith have 3 keepers all with major medical conditions making them unavailable. the game should have been postponed. Edited February 28, 2017 by Sonny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it different for keepers versus outfield players, as regardless of how many keepers are injured it's still only 1 playing position that they are short?

belfast billy Posted February 28, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2017 I always thought the emergency loan system only applied to keepers if its at a centre back you can shuffle defence and say play a full back in the middle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No different for keepers but surely having 3 keepers in a championship club would be considered reasonable? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
