McGlynn uses Fife Cup to run the rule over his Raith Rovers squad

Raith Rovers boss John McGlynn used Tuesday night’s Fife Cup tie at Dunfermline to keep some of his first-team squad ticking over during the international break.

Tonight’s Reserve League Cup semi-final at Partick Thistle will serve the same purpose.

McGlynn’s team beat the Pars 1-0 thanks to a Brian Graham goal.

The manager said: “It was a good workout and one or two of the first team boys who needed game time got it.

“It was also an opportunity to give some of our youngsters a bit of experience.”

He added: “This break has been a good opportunity to get these two reserve games played.”
