CK Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Can anyone name all 90 players Barry used during his reign? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coach Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 1 hour ago, Jaggy Snake said: Bob Malcolm in charge on Tuesday? Bring back Barry... Normally in such circumstances when the manager resigns or is sacked, the rest of the backroom staff leave, too. By no stretch of the imagination can I see Bob Malcolm being managerial material, and I base that opinion having coached at senior level. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NE63 exile Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 What about Keith Knox.Clyde legend as a player and his record at Stranraer wasn't too bad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently in the promotion play-off places. Has a really good Number Two in John Joyce, who knows his stuff working with players and taking coaching sessions. Goalkeeper Blair Currie also having a good season after spending quite a few years coming through the ranks at Rangers. His younger brother, Max, is at Stranraer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chapman and Joyce would be foolish if they left Annan for Clyde. They have a better squad of players at Annan than the useless bunch that are at Clyde. Where will Clyde now get the money to bring in players now that Ferguson has left? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sao Paulo Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 (edited) Something to watch out for: recruiting an inexperienced candidate with an excellent record as a coach or scout. The best we've had from such people recently is stagnation (Joe Miller). The worst is annihilation (John Brown). Witness also the current example of Ian Cathro at Hearts. And anyone minded to institute a philosophy or ideology can bolt. Football managers and philosophy... Plato wept. Recruiting someone who isn't both experienced and successful would be regrettable. Nobody outstanding comes to mind, sadly. Allan Moore's record pre-Abroath was excellent; final season at Morton aside. That little stint with Arbroath's a worry. Some absolute cloggers in that team.

Chapman and Joyce have worked hard to put a better squad together. I always feel that a new manager taking over at any club will get more out of players - particularly those who have not featured under previous management - and I have seen that for myself being involved in the Scottish Football League. I firmly believe that can happen with Clyde. Your second point is spot on. The "powers than be " at Broadwood have a lot to answer for. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you've mentioned you coached twice now, and also at Scottish league level. Don't suppose you're about to tell us a team,?? I must have met you sometime. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clyde123 Posted February 26, 2017 Author Share Posted February 26, 2017 If he was paying some of their wages, the near future is looking grim.
