Best idea is to get Davy Sinclair in as defence coach. Never seen a Rovers defence so poorly organised and scared at marking up, closing down and most basic task of all .. tackling

Getting someone like Sinky back in the dressing room in some role could only benefit us in my opinion. His love for the club, enthusiasm and no nonsense talking would get everyone fired up. The fans love him and relate to him and we all know the words to "Sinky, Sinky punch his p**s" a great Rovers song the whole of the South stand could sing out together. He could even get the Saturday night team pub crawl down the High Street back on, a team that drinks together,plays together.

I'm wasn't suggesting Sinky to come back as a manager or assistant. I just think we need someone about the dressing room that has a bit passion for Raith and who could help get the players fired up before they take to the pitch. Throw him in the dressing room next week and let him tell the players a few home truths, they won't fancy going back in at half time if they've no put a shift in.

I don't believe, in the main, that the squad of players we have is all that bad, I just don't think they have a clue what they should be doing due to poor coaching, tactics and a lack of inspiration from the management team.
I believe an experienced manager with no links to the club needs to be brought in and could shake things up. Lets face it, most of the guys in the dressing room wont know what Sinky means to us as fans.

So it's a No then? Quite sad that one of our more successful managers isn't wanted back at a club that he rescued when it was on it's knees.

Ah well, c'est la vie.

When the inevitable happens, my choice is Danny Lennon. Not sure why.

My guess would be that managers returning for second stints are rarely as successful as they were first time around.

Though mostly good if not great in some areas JMs tactics were badly flawed, were he to return and follow the above trend and not even match his 1st around then we'd be in no better a situation than were are currently in.
