Raith's loss this evening in the Fife derby is a major boost to our hopes of a play off place. We could, to all intents and purposes, make it a decisive boost if we can continue our winning run on Saturday. However, Ayr will be dangerous opponents and even more determined to maintain or increase that now frightenly narrow gap between them and the Pars for the relegation play off place. We will need to mstch them for motivation and determination as well as skill and tactics. A big game and a strong performance required both from the team and the band of fans making the long trip to the Ayrshire seaside. The latter is guaranteed, let's hope that the players and coaches are equally up to the task.

Astra game, 2015

All of the Premiership play off matches have been confirmed / shifted for TV. Now though there is not a single one of the games taking place on a Saturday or Sunday with the Q/Fs and S/Fs taking place on a Tuesday / Friday and the final on a Friday / Monday.

The Jaggies on fire as usual!

Add a bit of nostalgia - Here is my fave phottie from the past

Ayr are anything but safe. If Dunfermline win their game in hand they are just 2 points behind Ayr. There is zero chance that they are in any kind of "end of season" mode.

I am very much hoping that Raith's victory in the Challenge Cup final will, in a few weeks, prove a little consolation for missing out on the play offs. The final was a decent enough game. However, I don't think that a national final should ever be played on a synthetic surface where there are other venues with sufficient capacity and in a reasonably neutral location with a grass pitch available.

Our 16s were 7-2 winners against Moray Girls this morning to progress in to the League Cup semi final
