Well given the players he signed in comparison to the rest of the league I would assume you paid pretty decent money. Players don't normally drop down a couple of divisions for nothing. Given your local knowledge, I'll take your word that he didn't, so Hartley is in fact a football management genius considering what Alloa achieved. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had/has good connections and had to totally rebuild the team from 2 signed players, he brought in good players only because he was good at spotting the right talent at the right price (cheap) ! One aspect of a really good manager IMO, alloa are not that rich but were not too poor either to be fair . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pride_of_the_Clyde Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 It's a shame to see the state of affairs at Clyde. For all of his belligerent talk, ElementaryPenguin does get to the root of the problem in that no one knows quite what the chain of command is at Clyde: A manager widely thought to be partly funding some of the first team squad with no clarity on his contractual status. No Chairman of the board and a Vice Chairman who came across averse to taking responsibility for even writing a New Year message to fans. A "fan-owned" club of which the fans don't even known where the club will be playing in the next few years or the process they need to go through for affecting change. Not to speak of the divisions within that support and those who take glee in causing arguments. Not to mention the awful current run of form the team is on which threatens the club's league status after far too long in the basement division. And talk the club's awful performance on the park regularly seems to be overtaken by some of the points above. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthLanarkshireWhite Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 The vice chairman is a nice guy, who has worked for the club for many years. The club needs people like him. However in my humble opinion, he is not the leader the club needs at the moment. I cannot imagine him having the vision, the strength to deal with a character like Ferguson, or the answer to 'should he be sacked and replaced by xxxxx xxxxxx' 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pride Of The Clyde Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 I would keep Lowden ,McNeil and Smith also. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haufdaft Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 To be brutally honest, the only players I'd give a shit about losing are Linton, McLaughlin, Easton, Flynn, Fergie and Peaso. Says it all really! McLaughlin? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrigtonClyde Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 I don't know what we can do in January window, loans or whatever, but if we have McNeil at RB and Perry in the middle, add another CH and a LB and the defence stops leaking the goals. Find another dangerous striker to play up with Peaso That with the existing midfield could be enough to tip the balance at this level. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FREDDYFRY Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Am I the only one who thinks that Perry, outwith his initial couple of games, has actually been pretty poor to the detriment of Junior? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLClyde Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Thought perry was great the first 4/5 games but something has went wrong with him I think. McNiff was signed as a centre half and has been forced into left back with lowdens injury, hasn't been good there but would like to see him at centre half more. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly Freddy, but I'm basing that on the fact that before his arrival we were shipping goals left, right and centre. It tightened up, but has gone backwards again. It could be the other way around. But the defence needs attended to, that much is clear. I also felt we needed an additional threat up front at the start of the season, and still do. It's League 2, get the basics right in the key areas and anyone's in with a chance. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
