buchan30 Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 They had Jim White and Jim Delahunt, was it worse than that?Fair to say we have made a proper Delahunt of things over the last 10 days. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RavyDavy Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 5 minutes ago, Against The Machine said: I've seen a couple more clips from today now. I want to declare first of all that I've got a real propensity towards support for John McGlynn, certainly under normal circumstances. He's the best Rovers manager in my time watching them, by an order of magnitudes, and he's played a huge part in turning the club around twice when it's been mired in the dirt. With that in mind, I do still think it's probably best he goes at the end of the season, but are other people looking at that interview from today (the footage, not the quotes in isolation) and seeing sincerity and contrition, or not? That's not a leading or a loaded question, not deliberately so anyway, but when I watch that I feel like I'm seeing the tone I needed to hear and some (but certainly not all) of the right things too. Is my judgement clouded, or is that any neutrals' view too? Also, I hadn't realised Benedictus was out with him today. Increasingly angry that the board have sent those two out again to face the music. Particularly Bene, who's got no say in anything. Unless they're all planning on resigning (and Sim will be around in any case) it's nothing but abject cowardice refusing to comment while the manager is doing a full sit down with a press room. You're boring now. I think if anyone needs to go at the end of the season (or at any time between now and then), it's you. You're absolutely desperate to be outraged now. Give it a fucking rest. -8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And what did you want? Did you want him to sacrifice himself in disgrace in front of everyone? He looked uncomfortable as hell but who wouldn't? He came across as sincere, honest and remorseful. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RavyDavy Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 2 hours ago, Against The Machine said: I feel heart sorry for Lang. He's been at this level before and didn't 'make it' but he's proven this season that he can be a standout (on his day) in the Championship, so to have that whole progression stopped for the best part of a year is a sickener. I don't know how many games he and Berra got together as a two, but up at Arbroath they were imperious. Undoubtedly the best defensive pairing I've seen this season. I'm sure he'll come back stronger, he seems like that kind of guy. It's yet another factor in this absolute Enron-share-price of a season, though, that'll mean we'll be very lucky to finish fourth. What f**k do you give where Raith Rovers finish in the league ? -8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottydog Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 10 minutes ago, Day of the Lords said: Aye but Clyde is a home for absolute dangers. From a neutral's perspective, I don't think that goes nearly far enough. A bit shite that the BOD are hiding away while he's getting a public (and deserved) flaying. So those in charge at Raith are clearly guilty of poor ethics by offering DG a job and paying his wages (no argument there), but perhaps using that logic isn't every fan who has paid in to to see a game he has played in during the time since he and DR committed the offence is equally guilty and as such shouldn't they all apologise too? I have some sympathy for McGlynn as he is a decent guy albeit one who made a mistake with a truly abominable choice, the directors who still backed this choice despite forewarning of what was likely to happen and for that IMO they are more guilty as they were appraised a month before of exactly what public opinion was and that folks in general were thinking him an unfit person even if they did not. I'm not in the least surprised none of them are willing to step in front of a camera, heads should definitely still roll but I'm becoming less and less convinced than I was that McGlynn's should definitely be one of them. Clearly the Rovers are the guiltiest party in the whole affair. After all if they had not signed DG he's still be a relative nobody at Clyde on £1000/week flying under the radar even as the top scorer in the land, Rovers signing him put the spotlight on him (and the Rovers) in a move that kick started this media circus, seeing his name and picture all over BBC/STV & Sky news on a daily basis must be upsetting for the the victim. So maybe for that the club should apologise to Ms Clair, maybe it already has apologised to her just not publicly, as someone else said she maybe doesn't want her name on the Tv news alongside that of the man who raped her. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What has happened has been an absolute shit show, the club has screwed up big time but it's time to draw a line and begin to move on.

Frank conner Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Seriously can't believe that so many people backed Mcglynn back in the day but now are more than happy to stab him in the back.
