Ashton meets the right team!

Sunday, 6th Jan 2019

Young fan has a special day out after Rovers visit!

Six year old Pars fan Ashton Duncanson had been in hospital, in Kirkcaldy, over the festive period during which time Raith Rovers manager John McGlynn had visited days before Christmas.

Staff at NHS Fife had captured this on video (below) with the tweet going far and wide as the two teams faced off.


Hearing of Ashton`s visit from the team at Raith Rovers, manager Allan Johnston wrote to Ashton inviting him to yesterday`s home match against Alloa, as a special guest.

Ashton, along with his dad and granddad had a behind the scenes tour of the undercroft, met favourite player Faissal El Bakhtaoui, club mascot Sammy the Tammy and was presented with a goody bag by Allan.

We hope you enjoyed your day Ashton and are glad you are now feeling better!
