As you'll have noticed, there are some forfar fans on this forum that like to believe they know more about football than others & thus like the smell of their own farts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing to take from the Donald interview is that Ray has obviously been open from day one that if a full time offer came in he would like to explore it . aye I’m a bit pissed off at the timing of it, the false statement about him choosing fgr wasn’t for him and just await his departure in the coming months but if true he’s said the above from the start and the club accepted that then what else is there to say? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alistair Donald would've been better saying nothing. I probably would've preferred silence, instead we got the utter fiction that Ray chose forfar over FGR. He stayed because the job offer clearly disappeared with Ferguson. At least be honest about it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The club are ultimately wrong for hiring him in the first place or make it clear it was untill the end of the season.

In what way is McKinnon’s situation similar? If you believe the club they have an agreement he can speak to other clubs for a full time job ( quite rightly what right have we to restrict an employee trying to improve his job?) and he did so. For those that want him gone can you suggest who we get in? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry but the argument of "who would you get to replace him then" is completely obsolete and childish, especially since we were all thinking it and expecting someone new until the statement came out yesterday.

He likely will, but Mcinally has made it very clear he wants a job locally, which in turn could bring long term stability. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RateofKnots Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 Timing sucked. That was, I believe, most peoples issue. The way I look at it, if FGR had come in for RMcK after their season had ended, then that would be fine. But it happened on the eve of the 1st preseason game, in the middle of signing talks with players. If RMcK is committed to Forfar, him still being in charge is fine. Most now believe, rightly, that he isn't committed, even in the short term. I'd rather have someone who wanted to stay for the season. I don't think I'm wrong for holding that opinion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
