Strip Woes
The supplier of Rovers match and replica kits has been taken over and is now unable to supply any more of either. Therefore the replica strips currently in stock are unable to be replaced so if you want one now is the time to get it!

Narrow Defeat
On the newly installed artificial pitch at Ochilview yesterday Rovers went 3 down before fighting back to a 3-2 defeat. Scorers were Scott Chaplain bagging yet another Murie of Stennie gave us the other.

Coming & Going
Rovers have signed forward Dave McFarlane after his impressive match as trialist on Saturday against Dumbarton. Dave was formerly with Stenhousemuir and Hamilton Accies and was tipped for greater things after being one of the top scorers in the country. The 27 year-old was last with Larkhall Thistle.

On his way out of Cliftonhill is Stephen Donachy who joins Larkhall Thistle. Due to his work Stephen has only featured a couple of times this season but could make a return to Coatbridge if that situation improved in the future.

The party is free to children of a maximum age of 12. For those wishing to travel on the supporters bus to Stenhousemuir it shall stop off at the ground after the party ends.
