mrpaddyx Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 BBCBMcLauchlin â€@BBCBMcLauchlin 17s 17 seconds ago Dundee United reach financial agreement with Raith Rovers that will allow them to hold talks with Ray McKinnon #bbcsportscot Just to break the tension. Sozzles guys. Well, it was hardly going to be news that he had signed a contract extenstion. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 Well, it was hardly going to be news that he had signed a contract extenstion. Still at the anger stage in the grieving process I see. It's ok - I forgive you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrpaddyx Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 (edited) Still at the anger stage in the grieving process I see. It's ok - I forgive you. Angry? Not really. I was mildly upset in 1993 when Brewster left for nothing to sign for Dundee United when he had allegedly agreed to resign for the Rovers the week before hand. Much worse has happened whilst watching the Rovers for this to be in any way upsetting. Edited May 8, 2016 by mrpaddyx 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonicsco Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 Good statement from the club ! Hopefully he says thanx but no thanx but keep me in mind for next time. But then again I doubt it 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbaldwin Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 Although I was hoping for the best with him I knew realistically that he was going to go. At least this way the speculation doesn't drag on and we can get a new manager in to continue planning for next season. Having said this still absolutely gutted but what a season it has been. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mealsonwheels Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 Apparently it's not substantial as such but enough to pay out his contract with a little on top 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ding Dang Doo Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 Reading that statement can only affirm my view that our build up this week was completely affected by this. Now we may still have gone out yesterday but the manager meeting the board to talk about his future 2 days before the biggest match of our season should never happen. I think it's quite obvious Ray wants to go so let him. No point having a manager who isn't committed 100% to the club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donny86 Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 Throwing it out there, Barry Ferguson and Bob Malcolm as the next management team. Both will have great contacts 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrpaddyx Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 Brewster went for a quarter mil, Hetherston was out of contract and went to tribunal I think your right. In my head it was a free but checking the dates it can't of been as it was 93 and the Bosman ruling didn't come into force until much later. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoBNob Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 You lot seem to love ex-Dee's. Barry Smith signed Lewis Toshney, Mark Stewart, Iain Davidson for Dundee and was Benedictus' youth coach and later manager too. He also played with Scott Robertson. If the majority of your squad is signed up for next season, maybe the board will want someone that's relatively familiar with the squad. I heartily endorse this and fully support Raith appointing Barry Smith. I spent ages on them Don't know why you're taking the credit when they're my bedsheets. I genuinely have no idea who Raith will go for, Danny Lennon? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALDERON Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 Failure at this level. Really don't know who we will go for. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raith Against The Machine Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 I genuinely have no idea who Raith will go for, Danny Lennon? I hope not, purely based on this extract from one of Richard Gordon's books: DAVID VAN ZANTEN (ex-St Mirren): I was among the substitutes for a game at Firhill against Partick Thistle and they were awarded a corner early in the second half. We’re leading 1–0 at the time and they push most of their big guys up hoping to get an equaliser. Our boss, Danny Lennon, is straight out of the dugout, and he’s screaming, “Who’s picking up Balotelli? Who’s marking Balotelli? Someone get on Balotelli!†Of course he means Conrad Balatoni, but has got the names mixed up, and we’re creasing ourselves at the thought of Mario Balotelli playing for Partick Thistle. Danny glances round and as we all try to cover up that we’re laughing at him, someone points out that Balatoni hasn’t even gone up for the corner, he’s standing on the halfway line. That was it, we were gone, and there are howls of laughter from the dugout as the boys clear the danger out on the pitch. Danny’s standing there absolutely bemused; he had no idea what he’d said and why we were cracking up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
