Oh No No No - A Raith Rovers Podcast

It was the last game of the season, and scoreline wise, the worst. But how do the panel feel about it? Duncan is joined by Graeme, Callum and Carol for a playoff final post-mortem. Rather than subjecting themselves to a play-by-play analysis, they focus on where the tie was won and lost, and what the mood in the support was by full time. But just as it looked like things might be getting a little...

Duncan, Leslie, Blair and Sandy sit down on the eve of the Rovers’ biggest game in 25 years to look back on Thursday night’s 2-1 defeat and look forward to Sunday’s showdown.

Robbie is joined by Iain, Christina, Scott, Graeme and Callum...

Blair, Leslie, Carol, Robbie and Scott join Duncan for an in-depth, rambling and adoration-filled lookback at an all-time great Friday night at Stark’s Park.

You can also find the Oh No No No podcast on...

Duncan, Blair and Scott get the tactics board out and go deep into Partick Thistle 1-2 Raith Rovers, as the Rovers take a solid lead into the second leg of the Premiership playoffs.

After all of that, attention turns to the secon...

After going through all of the regular league season and only winning one game by more than a solitary goal, Raith Rovers put on a clinic against bottom dwellers Arbroath to go into the playoffs on a high. Doubles for Callum Smith and Lewis Vaughan were supplemented by a Jack Hamilton goal which saw Rovers run riot over the red lichties. Duncan is joined by Robbie, Leslie and (the long awaited ret...

Welcome back to the Oh No No No podcast. League game 36 and familiar foes come to town in the shape of already-doomed Arbroath. Jim McIntyre's men haven't won a game since their standard 'against all odds' effort against Rovers at Gayfield, and having proudly proclaimed that "Hammy won the league at Starks Park" a few years ago, it's fitting that Stark's Park is where they're away back to league o...

Duncan is joined by Callum and Scott to deep dive the many, many talking points from a riveting and action packed afternoon in the Greenock sunshine.

Duncan is joined by Christina, Scott and Graeme to preview a trip up the A9 to Inverness on Friday night. With the prospect of playoffs on the horizon, there’s talk of changes to the starting line-up, and whether it’s time to start getting minutes into the legs of players whose game time has been limited of late.    After the usual wild stabs at line-ups and scorelines, Graeme gives his thoughts f...

Welcome back to the Oh No No No podcast - the home of all things Fife's Finest. Kris Doolan's positively fragrant Jags (according to Graeme Meldrum) rolled into town to end a hectic run of three home games for Rovers as the two sides battled out a closely contested 0-0 draw. Robbie is joined by Callum (with a working webcam), Scott and Leslie to discuss a relatively eventful match where both sides...

After all the build up, the Diamonds club broke Rovers hearts and have Rovers fans potentially grabbing spades for any title dreams. Rhys McCabe's men have become familiar foes, and it was the same story again when they took the lead courtesy of Adam Frizzell's long range efforts. Ian Murray tried to change the game with a half time triple substitution, before then bringing on Josh Mullin who fire...

Welcome back to the Oh No No No podcast! Rovers overcame both the Honest Men and the elements to remain within touching distance of Dundee United at the summit of the Scottish Championship.

Duncan, Robbie, Leslie and John have the unenviable task of picking through Dundee United 2-0 Raith Rovers. They discuss Ian Murray’s starting eleven, wonder whether a couple of changes might’ve made all the difference, and look at where the key battles in the game were won and lost. After a chat through the key incidents and the roles played by Tony Watt and the referee, attention turns to the ru...

Duncan, Robbie, Blair, Graeme and Scott get together a day earlier than normal to look forward to a huge game at Tannadice as the two title contenders clash for the final time this season.

There’s also talk of pressure...

Welcome back to the Oh No No No podcast - home of all things Fife's Finest football club: Raith Rovers. And it wouldn't be a chat about Raith Rovers football club without a discussion about Lewis Vaughan. Arriving as a youth in 2012, Lewis's story is well known around Scottish football and in time honoured tradition he received his testimonial match against his boyhood club Hibs. Robbie Weir is jo...

Duncan is joined by Leslie, Blair and Scott to chat through Saturday’s goalless draw with Queen’s Park. The boys preach perspective after the Rovers failed to fully exploit Dundee United’s loss at East End Park, but did enough to put themselves pack onto level pegging with Jim Goodwin’s mob.

Duncan is joined by Leslie, Blair and John to revel in a fifth successive derby win. But before the boys dive into the game itself, Christina pops in to tell all about her experience on the PA at Stark’s Park, and living her dream of announcing a Sam Stanton goal. Despite best attempts to stick to the game, things get a little childish (© Alex Jakubiak) as the guys find their way to referencing PE...

Duncan, John and Blair get together for a truncated Oh No No No, looking forward to Saturday’s derby against Dunfermline at Stark’s Park. They cover Chris Kane’s arrival at the East End Park, and wonder whether a competent striker might provide a different dimension to the Pars’ attack. They also very quickly decide on a solution to the Keith Watson shaped hole at centre half. And it wouldn’t be a...

It’s group therapy masquerading as a podcast this week as the gang throw any semblance of structure out of the window, and instead spend 45 minutes taking it in turns to swing wildly between frustration and misery.  Blair, Carol and Robbie join Duncan to look back on a Friday night horror show that played out in front of the BBC’s cameras. The Rovers threw away a two goal lead over Arbroath for th...

If a football match occurs and everyone agrees nothing happened in it, does it still take the best part of an hour to talk about it? As it turns out… yes! Duncan is joined by Blair, Carol and Christina to squeeze every ounce of interest from a very drab 0-0, and end up talking about referees, interviews, and modern art. They also look ahead to another massive Friday night as the Rovers head up the...
