senorsoupe Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Raith are the latest club to fail miserably at reading the room. Shame for the fans, what a catastrophically bad signing this was 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's the point, because he's Ronaldo and llaysbway he plays people turn the other cheek, wrongly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renton Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 So, are they just going to brazen it out? No comment from the board? No pre game or post game interview from McGlynn? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pub car king Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 I can't see him being in the squad tonight while they work out what to do. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broken Algorithms Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Probably won't be anyone to interview him tbh.I've considered this. I certainly know other media outlets the club use won't be running their usual because of resignations. I can't imagine how difficult it must be for parents to explain to a kid who might be 5 or 6 about what's happening if it makes the headline news this evening. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TxRover Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Off on gardening leave now…will view a bit, but may or may not ever be back to support Raith…Raith TV subscription cancelled…totally amazed they fucked this up so badly! 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smpar Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 In amongst all the other emotions about the nuances of this signing, I’m laughing at the thought of all the bosses inside Stark’s just now trying to figure out what the f**k they’re going to do next. Their phones and email inboxes must be going fucking mental. What a mess they’ve got the club into. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep think there’s no coming back from this. What a shambles today has been not going to be a great atmosphere at the game tonight anyway 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Steele Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 For a family and community minded club to have gone ahead with this signing is beyond belief. The signal it sends is disgraceful and well done to those who have resigned and are severing contact with the club. Imagine having a Board/Manager so out of touch with the toxicity of the player, the way society views violence against women, and not understanding how rape is seen in law, and still sign him shows a lack of judgement that should see them all punted. This is a mess of their own making. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lichtielegend Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Raith fans should give their season tickets to opposing club fans every fortnight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leggy Blonde Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Think i’m still in the denial stage of the grieving process. I keeping thinking “nah, there has to be some mistake.. they surely never paid actual MONEY to sign David Goodwillie?? Rovers wouldn’t do that, that’s mental!” If McGlynn pushed to sign him in the first place then I don’t see how he can also continue at the club. A colossal error in judgement. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Intrigued as to if there will be protests and also the crowd numbers. It’d be low anyway with it being midweek against QOS. Probably around 1400 so we’ll see what it ends up. No match day announcer No ball boys (not sure if this is common knowledge yet) I love my team, I want to support the other players who give their all. Tough and sickening times being an RRFC fan. I think it could be pretty toxic tonight outside and inside the ground. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So in typical rovers fashion, we have signed someone who is carrying an injury. Well done the club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovers_Lad Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 (edited) Skipped a number of pages on this as it saddens me to read that so many supporters of other clubs can see how wrong this is yet those(some) running our club cant Been following the team for close on 6 decades and its been a big part of my life.In that time the club/board have taken some terrible decisions most repairable but this takes the fukin biscuit..What are they thinking about? Stupidity,baffling,moronic,unbelievable,none of these words can described this decision.Everyone involved in this decision should hang their heads in shame including McGlynn My dad took me and my brother from an early age,once old enough my dad took a back seat and me and my brother went together.I then took my son from an early age,then grandson came along and the three of us all go together now. Sure I posted last night that I would still go to the games but on refelection ,what has been a huge part of my life has been drained away and will find it difficult to attend SP now.

I can only imagine that the best thing they can do being faced with a shitstorm like this is to break out umbrellas and air fresheners. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
