Unrelated to the game itself; there was a Dunfermline fan who collapsed on Pratt St at FT - does anyone know if he was OK?

Any word when we might expect the season ticket/card through the post (assuming one paid extra for it)? No issue as we've got the QR code, but quite like something tangible.

Bought a season ticket for the first time in ~15 years (miss when the child ones were about £25); anyone know if Raith TV coverage is still included? I'm assuming not as I didn't see it mentioned anywhere - not bothered if it isn't, just curious.

Goodness me! Another LB is not what we need.

Unless someone comes in to pay money for them, I'd guess it'd be our choice what happens with their contracts.

Yet another blinder by the board.

I'm expecting Sean Mackie to be signed as competition for Dick.
I hope not; he's dreadful.

Sim isn’t on the BoD now. He is quoted as hoping to have JMcG back. JMcG says no contract has been tabled.
Sim might not technically be on the board but we all know he's still effectively the chairman.

The board right now.

A bit of digging on Google would appear to suggest it is indeed her...
Not a good look for her (or the club) then. She obviously has no issue with hiring rapists; once is odd, twice is very weird.

I wonder if this is the same Karen Macartney? If it is, it looks like she has previous.

Benedictus, for all his faults, didn't ask for this. He's not in the same bracket as Sim, McGlynn, Macartney et al.
It's quite pathetic that Sim et al are letting Benedictus essentially be the spokesman for the club. Sim needs to crawl out from the hole he's covering in and face the music. Sim's email is publicly available (I'm not suggesting people harass him) and I've voiced my displeasure to him personally as I feel bad for the Raith office staff having to deal with all this- not that it'll make any difference of course.

Devil's advocate but I think Bene is in an unfortunate position here; he probably has media obligations as part of his contract so has to say something to the journalists all the while not publicly lambasting his employer for fear of losing his job. Not sure I agree with what he's said but there's bigger fish to fry.

How come
He got a retrial on the basis his defence team said the bird was promiscuous
Evans has not been found guilty in a Civil or Criminal court. Would I still want him at the club? No but there is a difference

We paid £50k to bring this circus upon ourselves.
Can this story actually get any worse? This is so depressing

Surely the only option here is to terminate Goodwillie's contract?
I fear the damage is done and it's now too late

It’s clearly McGlynn, with the approval/encouragement of Sim and Karen McCartney and the approval of 4 out of 6 directors that have seen this through. I said before I don’t think there’s an outcome where this is “made right” where McGlynn can remain in post. I suspect Goodwillie was presented as his top target and he probably even did some convincing to get the backing of the powers that be. I also think, partly because of her connections, Karen would be gone if the management left. Sim’s position is a bit more complicated. He owns the club.
I'm not sure there's a way to force Sim to sell up but fan-ownership would be my preference going forward.

So now we're left with a board who all wanted Goodwillie. This is a shambles.

Someone mentioned declan Gallagher, at least he's sorted himself out, got a few Scotland caps. He's also shown genuine remorse. Goodwillie has shown fuckall. This simply cannot be allowed to happen.
He battered someone over the head with a baseball bat; couldn't care less how sorry he is.

Think Raith need to quickly come out and deny all speculation regarding Goodwillie (assuming it is just speculation); Raith likes to think of itself as a family-orientated, community club and signing the likes of Goodwillie, Gallacher et al contradicts that.

Thinking about driving down for this one; where would folks recommend parking?

I hope they get Tx to do the half-time draw.
