    Thoroughly enjoyable match, Linfield well worth their win, although they were maybe a wee bit fortunate with their second goal.

    The ref tried to let the game flow, but he maybe made a mistake with that incident.

    I used to sometimes watch the highlights after Final Score on a Saturday but I think BBC N.I stopped doing the 25 minute round-up.

    Thanks for the BBC links

    This is all assuming that the board is making the decisions here.  I'll hazard that no-one farts without permission of the main man.

    Aye, the more the downward spiral continues on the pitch the more the main man rubs his hands.

    Managed decline in action.

    And thats what needs to change.

    The club needs to be brutally honest with fans and to hope that by engaging properly with the support then enough fans are sympathetic to whats happening right now and are willing to stick with the club.

    There's nothing to suggest the Club are remotely interested in engaging with the support.

    So scunnered with this balloon of a manager , his negative tactics, bizarre team selections, very narrow and shortened coo field I am seriously considering repairing my storm damaged garden fence than pay £17 to watch more of the same crap that’s been served up for the last 2 seasons. 

    I've made my mind up that I'll give this game a miss.

    Would a couple of hundred less bums on seats provoke a response from our Board?

     

  5. Dimitris Froxylias, helped Dumbarton to their first national final in over 100 yrs with some outrageously beautiful goals, particularly his late free kick to knock out The New Saints, down in Oswestry.

    Called up to the Cyprus national team for his 1st cap v Montenegro, he flew back in the early hours to play in the Challenge Cup Final defeat (0-1) v ICT at McDiarmid Park.

    Here he is scoring at East End Park

    The Bum has achieved his win % figure mostly in League 2 with one of the biggest budgets in the division. I’d be curious to know what his win % is post November over his time with us because it must be absolutely horrific.

    I don’t think Naysmith is particularly special but he has tactical knowledge, knows how to change a game and his players will run through a brick wall for him based on this season. That combined with a good enough budget will get you out of this division. Unfortunately our board are letting an absolute buffoon of a gaffer waste a good League 2 budget with no sign of it changing any time soon. 

    Jim Duffy had a comparable win rate (around 37+ %) with Farrell, in a League above & also bearing in mind Farrell has been manager roughly twice as long as Duffy's tenure.

    Lol

    There is absolutely no doubt that a 35 year old David Goodwillie would score goals in this league, he is much better player than Jordan Allan let alone Rennie, Young or in fact probably still any other striker in this league!
    However, bringing him back would just be madness, not withstanding the awful publicity and negativity particularly given the situation we are already in. We could forget most, if not all the sponsorship let alone the relocation agenda. Whether that is with GGC or another location, we require buy in from local communities and foundation work to enable grant funding etc which is vital in any possible statism build. Unfortunately signing David Goodwillie would end all that, quite simple.

    Note… I’m saying this as a supporter who loved watching him in his time with us… best player I’ve seen in a Clyde Jersey. Watching his 100 Clyde goals collection on you tube is both delightful and sad at the same time:

    Our results and performances have now dropped off alarmingly from the early part of the season and I'm not convinced that there's an uplift in form just about to happen - we don't now have Durnan, Long or Shiels around for a start.

    And whilst we may well stagger into the playoffs then what ?  No form uplift would almost certainly mean League Two football again in August.

    Then what ?  We've now sprung out of the traps two seasons running before the wheels came off.  Suppose we don't spring at all and the wheels are off early doors, we could easily find ourselves in the position of this coming Saturday's hosts.  And then what ?

    Aye, it's a thought, is it not ?  And one I hope that whoever is in charge of football matters is acutely aware of.

    If we are in League 2 next season I fully expect more decline, mid-table or lower.

    It does not matter who the manager signs as he is unable, over the course of a season to maintain a consistent title challenge.

    As for who's in charge of football matters at DFC, I can't see anyone other than Stevie Farrell being in that role, what remains of our Board don't strike me as being 'fitba people'.

    Absolute hysterical knicker wetting over the Ebbo stuff on here, and quite clear a large volume of this forum have never been involved in the game at any level. He lost the rag in the heat of the moment due to being goaded and watching Stranraer players celebrating like the world cup. Oh my god he gave the home fans who gave the Clyde dugout abuse for 90 minutes the vicky, lock him up and throw the key away!  It happens, people blow off steam during these things, they aren't thinking rationally during these moments, been there and seen it myself, every single person I know who has played or been involved with football teams has acted this way at one time or another in a similar situation. I have seen words, arguments, hands raised to full all out brawls on pitches, dressing rooms etc. Its an emotional game, god forbid people don't act like robots. It'll all blow over, go and away cos its absolutely fucking nothing.

    Previous applications were dependent partly on satisfactory soil samples and ground investigative work being carried out.

    Who the hell would want a house that close to a football ground, particularly if the pipe-dream of an artificial surface happened and the stadium was in use all week long.

    I've seen it suggested that it's because there will be some ground work being carried out in relation to soil samples/bore holes relating to the proposed property development.

    If thats the case then the club needs to come out and say that.

    Nothing would surprise me.

    The Council haven't approved any development yet though?
