ironfist 59 Report post Posted February 2 I do not condone any form of violence whatsoever. I do think however that the reaction to goodwillie signing for Raith is over the top. He was not convicted in a criminal court as there was not enough evidence. He was convicted in a civil court and was fined £100k. That was the punishment given to him by society. He presumably has paid that. If he is remorseful for his actions surely he should then be allowed to get on with his life Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lambies Lost Doo 475 Report post Posted February 3 Clubs like us and Raith are always battling financial worries. Removing the moral aspect the BoD are nuts doing this when their biggest backer was against this and they must have thought there was a risk others would follow. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
