Come on, gie’s a game say fed-up Rob Roy
The fed-up players are facing a third consecutive weekend without a competitive game.
Public holidays and Scottish Cup fixture clashes have conspired to keep Rabs – who are flying high in the league after a succession of impressive wins – off the park.

At the weekend an experimental Rob Roy side went down 3-2 in a friendly against Newtongrange Star, while this weekend another bounce game has been organised – this time against Lochee United.
Gaffer Jimmy Lindsay said: “You would have thought anybody doing the fixtures at the SFA would have seen that we’d not had a match for two weeks and give us a game.
“Instead everybody apart from us has been given a West of Scotland tie.

“We just have to continue plugging away and keep the boys hungry for success.”
Rob Roy take on Lochee United at Thomson Park on Saturday. Kick-of is at 2pm.
Meanwhile, Rob Roy U14s were well beaten by Gartcairn 4-0. Man of the match was Scott Nealy.
