A frighteningly pathetic act from Raith Rovers who are trying to force the SFA to take action against us if Ryan Hardie doesn't play for the u19 squad. They're trying to invoke a rule that's in place to stop a player dodging a match illegitimately despite the fact that as far we know the SFA has given its blessing for the boy not to play in the Scotland game (and it seems likely since Warburton was happy to talk to the media about it). Raith have nothing to gain from doing this. We didn't even need to play the game against them but opted not to seek a postponement, and Hardie hasn't exactly been a key player for us this season. This is nothing but pure vindictiveness. The mind boggles.
