the_bully_wee Posted June 29, 2021 Author Share Posted June 29, 2021 Big Bad Conrad is based in Edinburgh, works in finance, carries a bit of excess weight and appears to be suffering from rapidly-progressing hair thinning. This particular Pat Scullion stan is more than happy to acknowledge all of these similarities and declare him the second coming after seven tough years. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Short memories! Not at all. We could've conceded about 15 goals in that game on another night, and the main players we had worries over (Nicoll/Rumsby/Mortimer/Docherty) all looked pretty horrific in their time on the pitch. Yip, tonight just confirmed (again) that we wasted wages on Rumsby/Nicoll at least. But most knew that anyway. Docherty I assume will be a back up to Livingstone and we'll end up seeing a lot of Cuddihy at right-back I imagine. You can add Gomis and possibly Balatoni to the list of players who will hold their own. Splaine did almost nothing right but he looked like he was half a yard off the pace and about to do the right thing so I'd hold out some hope that he'll come good. Robinson and McGrath were completely anonymous in the second half, they just looked like countless similar players who sign and simply take a place on the bench every week. A decent result and some decent play at times but we are still another three or four quality players short of being a team who aren't certainties for the bottom two. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SLClyde Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 (edited) The positivity on this thread is absolutely draining at times. I’m certain some folk in our support will have been raging we actually stayed up. Edited June 29, 2021 by SLClyde 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FREDDYFRY Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 (edited) Unusually for this greeting faced old man; I actually thought we did ok. As ever; opinions and all that but I didn’t see the awful stuff that others did. If, as someone said we have Livingston and Cudihy as full backs then is an improvement on last year. Yes I know we had Otoo for latter games. I expected much worse tbh Gomis looks a proper player. Edited June 29, 2021 by FREDDYFRY 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BullyWeeStonehouse Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 (edited) It might only be a friendly but we’ve just beaten a Championship side who were pushing for promotion to the SPL away from home. A lot of positives to build on. Edited June 29, 2021 by BullyWeeStonehouse 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of positives to build on. I only saw the second half, but must have been a watching game. I was reasonably impressed with what I saw, and agree with the comment above. Couldn't tell you who some of the players were (no numbers on tops) but Mitchell, Nicoll, Gomis, and one of the forwards (don't know who) were the ones I was most impressed by. The downside was - both Nicoll & Gomis would have been booked if this wasn't a friendly. Nowhere near as negative as some of the comments here . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

up and squeeze Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 Really impressed with Clyde tonight. Squad looks like it’s coming along nicely too. Surely be competing towards the top end of the table. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLClyde Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 I watched the first hour then about the last 5 or so, again I’m not seeing all the negativity either. Raith had good chances first half but we had 2 or 3 ourselves, but thought we played well enough. From what I saw second half it was much the same and we scored a good goal. As above Gomis looks a great signing if we get that out him every week, Mitchell made some cracking saves and thought Cunningham looked sharp, big season for him I think if he has ambitions to get back higher up the leagues. A good workout against a good Raith team. Couldn’t believe the size of Tade though… 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Vojáček Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 (edited) Where's Gregory Tade been for these last few years? His Wikipedia hasn't been updated in yonks, but I take it he was still out in Qatar or something? Swapping the Doha megabucks for Scottish League One. Fair play to him.

BullyWeeLad Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 I’m assuming he hasn’t been signed by a club since 2018 so my first question is why ? maybe injury problems, his wife is Scottish and kids went to school here so I imagine Scotland is where he has settled down 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrigtonClyde Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 Stopped judging too much based on pre season friendlies years ago. Can think of multiple times we looked good in the build up to a season that then went badly wrong, and vice versa. The seasons start so early now, players aren't getting the same time to fully rest and recover as they did in the past, and it shows by late in the season. The League Cup has been reduced to "meaningful" friendlies in the group stages when the players are a little further on in training, but are more or less used to get match fit for the league season starting. Watched some of it last night & all I'd take from it is they looked pretty well organized for so many new arrivals and looks like the general plan will be to play it on the deck as you'd kind of expect from a DL side. Really don't think there's much else you can read into a game like that this early. The fact so many trialists were playing suggests we're still in the market to bring in another 2 or 3 anyway, suppose it'll just depend on what we can afford and the quality available. Might even be an idea to keep doing that during the group stages to see who can cut it when there's a little bit more at stake. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless the particular rule has changed, you can't field trialists in the Betfred Cup IIRC. Edited June 30, 2021 by C. Muir 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael W Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 I wasn't able to tune in last night, but looks like Gregory has changed a lot since he left us. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we get the lad on the right, then I’m less worried about our midfield. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
