Wadsley

Does it have a social club ? No unfortunately. It does have a well stocked souvenir shop, a picnic area and toilets for those who are less able. I don’t suppose that was a concern back in the time of its construction. It is the birthplace of Mary Queen of Scots. Maybe Clyde should consider playing pre season friendlies against other football clubs whose grounds are close to historical and significant sites . This would assist the Clyde fan base to improve its collective awareness of the country’s history and appreciate its heritage.

Did anybody visit Linlithgow Palace? Members of Historic Scotland can visit for free! I believe it’s a great “set up” too.

I once commented that Clyde fans seemed somewhat capricious. Reading some more recent posts would suggest they can also be a tad vicious and vindictive towards fellow supporters. Not good for forming a united front.

Indeed. It demonstrates passion and a desire for success. Supporters of other clubs who are unfettered by history, ambition and the hunger for success tend to be less extreme in the hyperbole they use. Most Clyde fans seem to have an awareness that this season ,genuinely, may be the one! Hence the fluctuations in emotion.

Reading the Clyde threads, it’s clear the fans are, may I say, somewhat capricious. Two league defeats and doom and gloom descend like twins of the apocalypse. A victory at the then league leaders heralds a glorious revival as if Billy Graham had been co-opted on to the board.

I like the chippy van at Shielfield!
