101 Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Just now, MC_Lachlan said: How do we start the process of getting these people out of the club? See if Val and the Tag game guy would be interested in starting a community buy out. I guess as they are supporters with fairly deep pockets that would make sense. Maybe also the guys who have resigned from the board. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardle is Magic Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 I would hope Dunfermline and the other Championship clubs will refrain from inviting any of the Raith Rovers hierarchy into the Directors Box for future matches. Shouldn’t mix with such morally corrupt creatures. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Raith board can consider this my booooooooo for the next game I will not attend at Starks Park and the victims of rape can consider this my apology on behalf of Scottish football for employing a rapist. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Employees I have a slight sympathy with, although they should absolutely be assessing their options. I get that, but - given the way its handled already is he likely to start/get on the subs bench? I'd be tempted to go and pretty vocally voice displeasure over this, would understand if some season ticket holders (who must be feeling a bit of "eat shit we've already got your money" right now) go purely to vent their anger. If he's flung right into the starting line-up, if only for the club to get his debut out of the way and cynically pray he smashes in a goal or two, all the better to let him know he's not welcome.

RandomGuy. Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Genuinely assumed that statement was a spoof until I read it on their site. There's no way back for Raith now. McGlynn especially. Absolutely fucked it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calcutta Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Wow. Been busy all day and was just about to buy the stream for tonight's game. Glad I looked on here first. I'll not be adding to Raith's bank balance. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rover1990 Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 David Goodwillie is scum for what he did and what angers me most is he’s happy to watch our club implode to make a few quid and play full time again. I would happily see everyone associated with the club leave tonight that includes Mcglynn. I’ve been one of his biggest fans in his time here but this is a step too far. All for a wee shot at promotion. Can shove it if this is the price we have to pay 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hughsie Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Is there any chance this could turn violent at the ground tonight? The situation and that statement really are that bad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

San Starko Rover Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 (edited) Just seen the statement. Unlike others I was willing to accept a apology from the board as long as they moved him on. The board and McGlynn can now get emptied and the sooner the better. Edited February 1, 2022 by San Starko Rover 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Double Jack D Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Community club distancing itself. Released a statement underlining it is stand alone. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardle is Magic Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 They outright said they care more about his footballing ability than victims of sexual violence. I can’t get over this whole situation. It’s like they’re trying to torch the club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roverthemoon Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 6 hours ago, Enigma said: I imagine that’s probably what has happened here. There just isn’t a scenario where this is “made right” and McGlynn and Smith stay. Could be looking for a new manager soon. As big a red letter day as there’s ever been for Raith Rovers. McGlynn has shat on his legacy at the club. Want him out just as much as Sim tbh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
101 Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 That's Raith picked up the lead story of 2 national news programmes, something I doubt even the premier league winners get. McGlynn and the board are going to be under a microscope for a long time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clown Job Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Hope the rest of the women’s team chuck it now They clearly don’t give a f**k the captain walked away after spending 10 years at the club 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 We play at Stark's on the last day of the season, and aside from all the other bigger issues it's a shame to think that Killie fans might now be placed in a bit of a dilemma in terms of potentially supporting our team towards a league title (something we literally haven't done in nearly 60 years) versus not wanting to fund this bunch of contemptible scumbags. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VincentGuerin Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 (edited) I do feel for Raith fans, and I wouldn't want DG at my club. But the tone of the coverage today is strange considering this isn't really news news from a football point of view. The guy has been playing and scoring regularly in the SPFL for years. If it wasn't an outrage that he was playing for Clyde, and I don't recall it being a leading news story when he turned out for them last week, then it's no worse for him to play for Rovers. Have people been boycotting Clyde? As I said, I do feel for Raith fans. I understand the urge to boycott etc, but I'd urge fans to not let one utter wrongun signing for their club disrupt a connection they've had for decades. It's still your club. But it's all a personal choice and people will make their own call. I didn't rip up my Hearts season ticket when we hired Rix.
