On this point I don't agree, fans of other clubs have been pretty consistent throughout this whole sorry saga that signing a rapist is reprehensible, and that those responsible for it have no place in football, and that includes McGlynn. It's absolutely correct that the victim in this is Denise Clair, and it must've been absolutely fucking shite to have this all dredged up again, beyond horrific. And you're absolutely correct that signing a rapist is just plain wrong, with that then I'm not sure how holding the beleif that dinosaur picks like McGlynn have no place in professional football is point scoring. His apology is absolutely nonsense "Thought it'd be alright because there wasn't as big an outcry at Clyde" is absolutely awful and I'm surprised and shocked there's so many Raith fans lapping it up. I'd say so, go back to when the story broke fans of all clubs were pretty united in the opinion that it was an awful signing and those responsible should do one, fast forward to the present day and McGlynn with what I genuinely thought was an absolutely pish apology, on his 3rd? Opportunity to speak to the press has been forgiven, I find it utterly baffling. The man has dragged your club's name through the gutter and has forever associated you as the club that signed a rapist, forgiven because he's an OK manager. It's looking likely you'll come out of those 200k+ down, reputation in tatters and sponsors not wanting to know you, and with absolutely no one being held responsible. Until they also do a shite apology right enough. Take a day off lad, jeezo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She has no interest at all in football, every time she has seen John McGlynn being interviewed she always says he is on the “spectrum” most likely Asperger’s as he is so driven, her throw away comment was “He won’t see anything but solutions” just a thought. Missus defo had a job in the canteen for 3 weeks over the summer and can now suddenly diagnose various issues from 350 feet IMO. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RRFC2711 Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 Missus defo had a job in the canteen for 3 weeks over the summer and can now suddenly diagnose various issues from 350 feet IMO.35 years and had to retire through being attacked by one of her challenged pupils. Loved her job but hey that’s the way it goes eh!Anyway I suppose another view point shouldn’t be considered as the vitriol on here is so toxic at the moment. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you should ensure your club isn't relegated first, before you come in here spouting off on what should happen at our club 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hank Scorpio Posted February 11, 2022 Author Share Posted February 11, 2022 Grant, honestly you’re usually alright but this is just weird. The Rovers fans are ones with skin in the game. We have weighed up all the factors and we, broadly, are OK with McGlynn staying. Quite frankly, no c**t cares what you think. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevoraith Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 On another note, good to see a Raith TV of sorts back for the pre-match interview. Production values weren’t quite up to the standards of the usual team but I enjoyed Gordon’s interview style and he asked some good questions. Interesting that talk of the rapist wasn’t off limits. Had to chuckle when he asked if there was any chance we’d be bringing in another striker before the loan window ended though [emoji23] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absofuckinglutely. @Grant228 Hi, It would appear you're no stranger to the old mental pommel horse yourself. Do you want to double down, or are you prepared to admit that there's a bit of the old hypocrisy at play here?

ribzanelli Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 (edited) Just out of interest, how strong was Grant’s crusade to rid the game of the rapist apologists who signed DG for Clyde?
