I think we're going with the thought that if you dismiss a man who persistently harassed a woman and climbed a drainpipe to spy on her through a second floor window as "a bit of a creep", people are likely to roll their eyes when you start taking a moralistic hardline about someone who employed a rapist (which, to be clear, is not a good thing) temporarily and then apologised for it. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh the wording is poor, I'll hold my hands upto that, it's quite the understatement. With that logic describing the actions of McGlynn as "not a good thing" is also a massive understatement. Just to clarify Hardie is a wrong un,being on the receiving end of that must've been terrifying. 17 minutes ago, Ebanda's Handyman Services said: Were you not angry about rape apologists then?

Ah, so we are going with the "If you weren't critical of Clyde five years ago..." christ on a bike. Give Val a shout with that logic. Just that a few days you were similarly surprised that sentiment seemed to be clouding people's judgement with regards to calling out rape apologists due to them being an OK manager, and now here we are! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

San Starko Rover Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Whole debate over McGlynn is pointless right now anyway, well except for the amateur psychologists amongst us. He’s not going to resign, if he was he’d have done it by now. We’re not going to sack him as 1. We can’t afford it 2. How could our BOD sack him when they agreed with him publicly. Reality is nothing much has changed since “we got it wrong” now we need to wait to see what our board does next. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reality is nothing much has changed since “we got it wrong” now we need to wait to see what our board does next. Yeah, I'm expecting it to drag on quite a while yet, and McGlynn to at least see things through to the end of the season. We've done the main thing, which is that Goodwillie won't play for us. Next will be sorting out his contract, which might take a while given you'd imagine there's bonuses and clauses in there which is probably complicating things. Once that's sorted out then it'll probably be changes on the board and Sim possibly taking a step back with someone else as Chairman. It'll only be after all that is dealt with that anything will be looked at with McGlynn. Like you say the current board can't sack him for the signing when they're just as culpable for it, if not more so given they're the ones who have to finalise it. Even if they did somehow decide to sack him, there would be some pushback if the same board that's helped cause this mess were to then appoint a new management team. So McGlynn's position/contract will probably be the last thing to be looked at. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grumswall Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 I don't think there's many here looking to sweep everything under the carpet. We do have to look at the way forward for the club. It isn't just a case of sack the board etc when the owner of club and stadium is the chairman of the board.Aren't dunfermline playing right now though? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the majority of Raith fans I've seen on here have been very reasonable about it all throughout, and continue to be so, such as the point you make there. It's half time in our game.
