Raith Rovers’ decision to sign David Goodwillie has prompted a backlash from key leaders in the club, with several resigning from their posts in protest including a director, the captain of the women’s team, and lead sponsor, Val McDermid.
The Kirkcaldy club announced on Monday that it had signed the striker who was ruled a rapist in 2017 after a judge found that he and now retired player David Robertson, had raped a woman.
