Oh No No No - A Raith Rovers Podcast

Rovers will go to Firhill on Friday in what many are viewing as a make or break fixture against Partick Thistle. Following the departure of Kris Doolan, Brian Graham and Mark Wilson have picked up the reigns and led the Jags to a four game unbeaten run. Can Rovers build on an impressive derby win with a result? Robbie is joined by Leslie, Blair and Scott to preview the match and take a look at bot...

The schadenfreude is overflowing this week on ONNN, as Duncan, Scott, Robbie, Allan and Blair devote most of their time to the failings of our good friends at Dunfermline Athletic. Rumours of the Pars’ demise under Michael Tidser have not been exaggerated, and his side couldn’t lay a glove on Barry Robson’s on Friday night. Goals from Finlay Pollock and Paul Hanlon did the damage as far as the sco...

Welcome back to the Oh No No No podcast where we're looking ahead to derby evening at Stark's Park on Friday. Having taken an extended break after last week's midweek draw against Livingston, Robbie is joined by Carol, Scott and Allan to talk about the fortunes of both clubs and what to expect from the game. And as ever, a customary Should McStay or Should Dargo has been cooked up, this time by Ca...

Welcome back to the Oh No No No podcast. A nil-nil draw and a set of accounts to run through? You're absolutely right that there's an hour and a half of talk time about that! Robbie is joined by Blair, Scott and Allan to talk through yesterday evening's draw at Almondvale along with a look into the club 1883 pre-accounts release which showed that Rovers have managed to achieve a small profit. And...

In the mood for a mammoth session of misery and finger pointing? Then boy have we got the podcast for you! Duncan, Scott, Leslie and Robbie talk through Saturday’s 4-0 defeat to Queen’s Park. Coming it at from a number of different angles, they try to make sense of a collapse that didn’t seem to be on the cards until the first goal brought it all tumbling down. After a very thorough debrief, there...

Rovers lost out 1-0 at the Shyberry Excelsior for the second time this season, and it was a familiar tale as there was little between the teams until Airdrie scored late on, but ultimately the Rovers didn’t do enough to warrant a share of the spoils. Duncan, Blair, Scott and Iain talk through the story of the game, where it was won and lost, and where the only goal might’ve been prevented. After t...

For the second week in a row, the Rovers ran out comfortable victors at Stark’s Park. Hamilton Accies swapped in for Partick Thistle but had similar problems when it came to troubling Josh Rae, and this time Dylan Easton and Finlay Pollock did the damage at the other end. Duncan, Les, Carol and Robbie pick through the key moments, ponder the puzzling nature of Accies’ squad, and pick a man of the...

Welcome back to the Oh No No No podcast! It's a rare second week in a row at Stark's Park for Barry Robson's men who host Hamilton Accies. Robbie is joined by Scott, Blair and Carol to chat about the visitors absolutely bonkers existence [alledgedly], how the returning Blair and Carol are feeling about the current goings on, and what to expect at the weekend. Of course, "Should McStay or Should Da...

Duncan sat down with JJ and Kev from the Raith Rovers Community Foundation to find out more about what the Foundation does, how it works, and the benefits that it provides to Kirkcaldy and the surrounding area. The guys explain how they can use football as a gateway to offering wider support, their plans for the future of the Foundation, the volunteering and sponsorship opportunities that are avai...

The Rovers may have been on the end of a thumping at Celtic Park last week, but they were arguably in greater control themselves this weekend against Partick Thistle. Kris Doolan’s side didn’t register a single shot across the 90 minutes, and were comfortably dispatched thanks to Finlay Pollock’s double and Dylan Easton’s penaltyDuncan, Scott, Allan, Robbie and Iain sat down to talk about Finlay P...

Welcome back to the Oh No No No podcast where it's a return to normality. Having experienced the Scottish Cup experience at Celtic Park last weekend, regular service resumes as Partick Thistle make the trip to Kirkcaldy to face Robson's Rovers in only his second home game. Duncan is joined by Robbie, Scott and Allan to look ahead at what to expect from a Partick Thistle side who will need to make...

There were to be no shocks at Celtic Park in the Saturday late kick-off. Brendan Rodgers’ side were brutally clinical in seeing off the Rovers, with goals in the opening minutes of each half setting the tone for a game that they controlled from start to finish. Duncan, Blair, Allan and Leslie talk about the gulf between the sides, whether there was ever an opportunity for the Rovers to impose them...

It’s Scottish Cup time again, and it’s fair to say that rampant optimism isn’t quite the mood of the day at ONNN Towers. Robbie, Scott, Blair and Les join Duncan to try and piece together a strategy that could see the Rovers come away from Celtic Park with a victory. And the variety of suggestions on offer would indicate that Barry Robson won’t have to worry about anyone taking his job any time so...

For the second time this season, the Rovers came away empty-handed and frustrated from East End Park. A game of few chances somehow conjured four goals thanks to three penalties and a healthy deflection, and Duncan, Leslie and Allan sat down to try and make sense of it all. The three shine a light on where things went right and where they went wrong, what it might mean for the rest of the season,...

It’s another double-up on Oh No No No as the Rovers face two away games in five days. Spirits are high as Duncan, Robbie and Graeme wax lyrical about the Rovers 3-0 trouncing of Hamilton Accies. Goals from Finlay Pollock, Jamie Gullan and Aiden Marsh put the Rovers on easy street and it was a rare comfortable win from start to finish. After walking through the key incidents, the star performers an...

It’s double-duty for the ONNN gang as they look back (through their fingers) at Saturday’s 2-0 defeat to Falkirk, and then briefly look ahead to Tuesday night’s trip to Hamilton. Duncan, Robbie, Carol and Iain talk through the familiar concession of an early goal from a cross, the significant impact of John McGlynn’s tactical U-turn, the Rovers’ reliance on set pieces, Barry Robson’s post-match in...

No sooner had we hit the 'finish recording' button, Rovers had announced the unexpected signing of George Gitau on loan from Middlesbrough. That's the quick paced nature of Barry Robson's ever-changing Rovers side. Welcome back to the Oh No No No podcast! It's been a busy old week to say the least and to chat all things Rovers, Robbie is joined by Duncan, Scott, Leslie and Iain to discuss the Scot...

Duncan, Robbie, Allan, Scott and Blair are back to wax lyrical about the Rovers’ safe passage into the last sixteen of the Scottish Cup, following their extra time win over John McGlynn’s Falkirk. The team talk through Barry Robson’s tactical approach, the impact of Barnsley starlet Aiden Marsh, Sam Stanton’s villain-to-hero Harvey Dent impression, and the positive impact of each of the substitute...

Duncan, Robbie, Allan and Carol sit down to try and muster up the magic of the Cup and look ahead to the trip to Falkirk. There’s a recap of the Club 1883 Manager’s Q&A, an assessment of the departures of Lewis Jamieson, Cody David and Fankaty Dabo, a lengthy discussion around what you can possibly do if you don’t have any strikers, and Robbie rounds things off by posing another Should McStay...

Welcome back to the Oh No No No podcast. As the temperatures plummet across Scotland, we're back to look ahead to next Sunday's visit along to Cappielow where Robson's Rovers face the only team who have a 100% record against them this season. Dougie Imrie's Morton are one of the form teams in the league and having beaten us twice this season will be full confidence. Robbie is joined by Scott, Lesl...

It may have been the beginning of a new chapter, but familiar themes were all too apparent as the Rovers were pulled apart by Ayr United at Somerset Park. Duncan, Leslie, Scott and Blair put their heads (in their hands) together to try and pinpoint the biggest point of failure, and compile a list of other contributing factors as long as the drive back from Ayrshire after a 3-0 defeat. The Oh No No...

A new chapter begins at Somerset Park on Saturday, as Barry Robson takes his new Rovers side to face old teammate Scott Brown. Duncan, Robbie and Blair talk through what influence Robson might have just a few days into his new job, whether we’ll see changes to the starting line-up, and consider if we’ll see Jordan Doherty for the first time too. After all that, there’s still time for another stell...

Just eight short days after Neill Collins departed for California, the gaffer’s office at Stark’s Park has a new resident. Barry Robson will oversee the side for at least the next four months (!) and Duncan, Scott, Blair and Allan got together on a miserable Hogmanay morning to share their optimism for what comes next. The Oh No No No podcast are proud to offer our full support to Andy’s Man Club....

Welcome back to the Oh No No No podcast. No manager? No problem! Raith Rovers picked up their third consecutive victory at Stark's Park with John Potter leading the troops to a 2-1 win against title challengers Livingston. Having been unfortunate to take nothing in the previous two encounters, Rovers started quickly with an early Dylan Easton goal after a sumptuous pass from Liam Dick. The lead wa...

As the Rovers continue to reel from the shock departure of Neill Collins, attention turns back to matters on the field with Livingston’s visit on Saturday. After a somewhat unorthodox podcast intro, Duncan is joined by Allan and Blair to discuss their latest thoughts on Neill Collins and what happens next, how the team might line up against Livingston, and the chances of defeating a Lions side who...
