Gordon Brown has joined Scottish politicians and campaigners in welcoming the decision by Raith Rovers to drop David Goodwillie from their playing squad.
The Kirkcaldy-based club faced a nationwide storm of criticism this week after announcing the transfer of the striker - who was branded a rapist by a judge at a 2017 civil trial - from League One side Clyde.
The move led to celebrity fan and long-term club sponsor Val McDermid to sever her ties with Stark's Park, while dozens of volunteer staff also quit in response.
