Or is this more of a case of trying to have a couple of options to play at left back considering the past couple of seasons we have had a wee issue in cover in that position a few times Hopefully it’s a signing that allows K Mac to stay part time and there’ll be competition/backup for the position. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think we’d want anybody staying part time given this affects when the rest of the team can train etc. I’m pretty sure this a sign he’s offski to be honest. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankie moving on would be a CB and backup RB/LB down. With McKay back, we’d just need cover at LB even if KMac stays, because Dave can play CB and RB and Armstrong isn’t signed (backup LB coverage). 21 minutes ago, therollorose said: Hopefully it’s a signing that allows K Mac to stay part time and there’ll be competition/backup for the position. They have been very clear there is no role for a part time player next year. As Enigma notes, may be a sign of KMac’s departure. The disappointing note would be that we would likely release him and gain no compensation as I don’t see any part time team being able to pay for a player after this year.

Michael W Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 If we were going to stay with some PT employees then McGurn probably would've stayed as well. It's all just paper talk at the moment anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

San Starko Rover Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 You would hink, Lewis Stevenson would be at the Rovers if KMac left. I’d like to see more players go and play a season for their hometown club or club they supported as a kid at the end of their career bit like Adam has done (I know someone is coughing up for his wages) how good would it be for smaller clubs if a big name player who’s made their money came and played a season for them to help sell a few shirts and season tickets. Someone like Paul Scholes playing for Oldham or Darren Fletcher playing for one of the Edinburgh clubs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wardy Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 With our strong league position and attractive style of play, we will definitely be able to persuade more players than we normally would to join the club. Of course it is all down to money, but as has already been mentioned we are in quite a strong position financially than we probably have been for years. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beastie Russell Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 Turner would be a great signing. Macdonald if he stays pt won’t be at Raith, but is leaving the family business such a big risk 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can see it being ATS given he was a former player for us when we got promotion to the premier league and knows the likes of Archie, coupled with sections of our fan base desperate for us to sign him again 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

therollorose Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 Beginning to look a bit like Duku will be away, judging by his social media posts, which while not unexpected is potentially a bit disappointing. Hope he manages to kick on if he is away. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
