After every experimental line-up (such as Friday’s), it’s tempting to ask what the manager learned from the experience.
The partnerships on the left and right wings didn’t look right. Emilio Izaguirre didn’t overlap as often as usual and Stuart Armstrong was less effective than normal. A lack of space impacted the James Forrest-Adam Matthews partnership on the right. Forrest was manhandled until he switched left or got inside the box, when he was able to play unhindered.
Ineffectiveness on the wings led to the same up front. Anthony Stokes doesn’t get to play centre forward too often and didn’t really get much of a chance on Friday. Stokes anonymity was the most glaring aspect of the game but I suspect the responsibility lies elsewhere.

Cloughie took the Notts Forest players for a pint in Davie Hay’s pub on the day of the game.
Cloughie out foxed Davie for the home game .
We were just too naive

It looks a sure fire elastic loosener though :-)

Ive still got my whole ticket from the 1st leg because they opened that gate and let everyone in.
£2.50 for the ticket!
Those were the days :)
Less than the cost of a pint of the black stuff……unless in Swindon of course.

It’s slipping down nicely after an unusually quiet weekend.
Charlie nicholas tells sky sports he’s an arse, sorry , arsenal man.
Good player for us but does nothing for us now. Him & white’s off mic comments at the ac milan game about potatoes and the fields of athenry were enough for me.
The look on his coupon when neil came into the sky room after the sammi game at ibrox was one of oh s@@@
Ask delaney’s what he wore down to the artic condotions in nottingham for that game

One superb season for us and Couldnae get away quick enough.
Replaced by Brian McClair who gave us four excellent seasons. And has never badmouthed us either.
Ex Raith Rovers chairman Turnbull Hutton passed away last night.
He did not stay silent when wrong was being done.
May he RIP.
