SPFL side announce key man’s contract with VERY rude post as fans say ‘huge if true’ – and even Rylan’s got involved


TV presenter Rylan Clark couldn’t help getting involved when Championship side Raith Rovers announced a key man’s contract extension with a VERY rude post.

Former Falkirk star Liam Dick has emerged as a key man for the Kirkcaldy side and Ian Murray’s men were clearly happy to keep him involved as he penned a new one-year contract.

The contract extension post sent the internet into meltdown

Whether or not the club banked on their tweet being viewed no fewer than 5MILLION times or not is another matter – as Rylan got in on the action.

And it’s all because of the interesting way they phrased the post.

They wrote: “✍️ Dick extension.”

“We’re delighted to announce Liam Dick has renewed his contract for another year, keeping him at the club until June 2024.

“Liam’s strong defending and versatility has been vital in his 80 appearances for the club, scoring four goals.

“#YouBelong”

Let’s just say it was a post – and a HASHTAG – which raised a few eyebrows, not least from Rylan Clark who is the face of cinch’s SPFL sponsorship.

He quickly responded: “Fine with it.”
