foreverarover Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 Just when we got a win and a bit of positivity back, the dreaded John Sim appearance materialises. I wonder if his stance has changed regarding supporting another club. What he says may influence my possible return to Starks Park. If its more pish it'll be watching away games only. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kooz92 Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 Can't wait to hear more thoughts from Sim that will no doubt be more fitting in the 1930s than in todays landscape. To be fair, we've not been a shitshow in almost a week so something was bound to crop up 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hank Scorpio Posted August 18, 2022 Author Share Posted August 18, 2022 Would love to know the thought process of those at K107 prior to handing this well known idiot another platform. Great thinking, only good can come from this, I’m sure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scary Bear Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 John Sim has said some things that annoyed me. The stuff about his first thought after the DG furore being to shut the club down, and that bit about there being 41 other clubs to support. Daft things to say that don’t exactly paint him as a football man. However, like it or not he’s the man who enabled Reclaim the Rovers to happen, who owns the ground and club, and it’s useful to hear his thoughts. I suspect he is more about helping the community, rather than being a big football fan, seen as he also helps the campaign to bring back the Kings Theatre (the old cinema building). 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great thinking, only good can come from this, I’m sure. I don't think it's the place of K107 to be doing the club's PR for them, just in the same way Alan Temple's interview with John Sim earlier in the summer was legitimate journalism from the Courier. If the owner of the club is willing to give interviews, it's not up to the local media to decline them because what he says is offensive or controversial. The onus should be on the club to control their own messaging and, if an interview is going to be useful in communicating to the support, making sure it's done in house. Although I appreciate that's made very difficult when the owner has made it very clear that he'll be doing and saying whatever the f**k he wants. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know nothing of players or where they're staying though, all I know is someone from the club phoned someone I know about accommodation for two players for rovers players Nolan is staying at the Strathearn I’m sure - went out for a meal the other week he was there and regularly see him while on route to walk the dog to the park so it may well be for 2 signed boys. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, good chance it'll probably be for him and O'Riordan which is a bit of an anticlimax 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broken Algorithms Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 I'll wait to hear what's been said but I can't see any good coming out of the k107 interview. Obviously, you can't really fully comment based on a 16 second clip, but it certainly sounds like he's going to claim he's been misquoted. Based on what we've heard about the situation so far I've absolutely no reason to believe Sim and every reason to believe Alan Temple. Just get Goodwillie off the books and we can put this whole absurd saga behind us. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fucking sickens me that we have managed to get ourselves in a position to facilitate this. For all he did that was good, this will forever taint John McGlynn's legacy with the club. It's really quite sad. Will be listening to the interview as well. Anticipating a lot of playing about with words as to the current situation. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People in power saying stupid things brings views/listeners, I'd imagine they'll get plenty of listeners to hear whatever wild shit Sim has to say. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
