El fichaje de un condenado por violación indigna a Escocia
El Raith Rovers, un club de la Segunda división escocesa, se ha convertido en el centro de las críticas en el país por su decisión de contratar a David Goodwille, futbolista que violó a una chica en 2011, lo que ha llevado a la escritora Val McDermid, conocida por sus novelas de intriga y crimen, a retirar su apoyo y patrocinio al club. McDermid, que ha sido aficionada del Raith Rovers durante décadas, presta su nombre para las camisetas del club y para una de las tribunas del estadio Starks Park.. "He cancelado mi patrocinio de la camiseta del club para la próxima temporada tras este asqueroso movimiento. Esto echa por tierra cualquier intención de ser una comunidad o una familia en el club", dijo McDermid en un comunicado.
