Born To Run Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 Should hopefully all be resolved (name wise) this week - needed approval. Friendlies are unrelated…more a case of getting a squad in place first after so many moved on unexpectedly w/ Swifty. Otherwise it’s business as usual. Still in Alloa, still aiming to move back to Glasgow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing the short history and nomadic existence must make it hard to have a strong support. League wise going by the headcount project you had: 2018-19 = 80 2019-20 = 114 Keep in mind headcounts, not having stats for every league tie and 2019-20 being curtailed it gives a rough idea.

Not wanting to confuse matters by promoting new fixtures under the old name. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The turnover in manager and squad has understandably been a greater concern. A new name without an area to tie itself towards is going to sound incredibly bland and generic. We'll see if it can top Shettleston Juniors rebrand into Glasgow United. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ski64 Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 Yes without a "home" it's always difficult to build a support. I presume a base in Glasgow under some guise is the preference. Will watch developments with interest over coming days and weeks. The turnover in manager and squad has understandably been a greater concern.

Depends if anyone owns the name. Be a bit disrespectful to the old Thirds mind you, best just letting it go. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy groundhopper Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 Glasgow Nomads, location unknown. Sometimes ambition (dreams) don't match reality, difficult to see how to attract new support in some areas. Good luck anyway, good intentions etc. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even the MLS would reject it as too bland. At least the kit should end up better than the yellow and blue BSC Glasgow look. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
