People go to prison to get rehabilitated. Maybe I live a sheltered life, but you have to move on. Did Malky go to prison? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highland Capital Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 Why do I get the impression that the people who are the most vocal about "giving him a second chance" would probably not have been that bothered about his comments in the first place...? 18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
accies1874 Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 That's a disaster. I can only assume that the writer decided not to include the inevitable "woke agenda" quote. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comrie Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 County have done lots of stuff over the last few years to try and attract young fans to the club and away from the ease of supporting the OF from their streams/TV. As the Highlands becomes more diverse in population Caley have perfect material for any young non-white/straight potential fan as to why they should follow Caley and not County. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually to the point that I’m not sure Mackay or Uncle Roy will survive this. 1 hour ago, Widge said: Saw this graphic and just had to laugh. What the hell is that? Everyone else has some semblance of a formation, but that’s just wild. Jermaine Hylton barely played. I doubt the veracity of that chart, while finding it eminently believable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll both be here by the time the season starts. The wider point on the club being dreadful at communication is true. I think it's fair to speculate that the club have never effectively replaced the gap left by Ranald, or even Adams Snr. The "genuine fans" comment from Mackay is a really weird move too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The team are BASED in Dingwall. The team REPRESENT pretty much all of the Northern Highlands which is a really significant geographical area and a not insignificant population base. ETA - we still have absolutely no right to finish any higher than anyone else so your point is correct.

House Bartender Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 Dear Roy, I'm sure that many of the ("not genuine") County fans would return to the fold once you publish all or even some of the racist, sexist and homophobic texts that you imply that you have sent in the past. “His language was not great on a text message, but, if someone examined our texts, all of us would say our language was not good at times." Dear SLO Kenny, Please direct your board to this thread. There's so much that they have to learn. That they now treat the playing staff like a Subbuteo team is well into last straw territory. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "genuine fans" comment from Mackay is a really weird move too. I really think McGregor needs a dictionary, as he clearly does not understand what exonerated means. Malky Mackay was not exonerated, the FA concluded that they could not charge him with anything as the communications were private and their rules did not cover private communications. He even basically says he didn’t do due diligence as he was employed by the SFA before so he’s a good candidate. Rather than hide behind all the wafts of shite that come from his mouth he should just simply say it’s my decision and I’m not changing my mind - deal with it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roy needs to take a long hard look in the mirror though. He's handled this so poorly. On top of needing a new manager the club definitely need new PR.

sophia Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 Are we edging towards sack the board (uncle royston) or is it more the case that money talks? It's a serious point and if P&B is the settled will rather than an echo chamber of a few dozen, this is a rubicon and UR and his cash are history. I know where my money is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
