David W Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 There are some brave (and wild) attempts on here but there are literally no positives about this at all. Good luck to DGW, it can't have been fun playing with the complete rubbish we've put alongside him this season. All things considered, it's embarrassing that we've only managed to have a decent squad around him for a season and a half of his time at Clyde. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who exactly are you expecting as a replacement? That not my job that the recruitment team’s job but if they think Jamieson going to be any sort of replacement he won’t be. Will score 5 goal I predict - max Look DGW is the best player I have seen in 40 years supporting Clyde and I don’t expect us to have anyone again of the same standard for the length of time he has been with us in my lifetime Whatever the plan is there won’t be a suitable replacement 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Replays Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 I can’t wait to watch Jones and Tade run for the next thirteen games. I mean, we were watching it anyway but it’s going to be even worse now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haufdaft Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 I'm sure Danny Lennon will be on the phone to St. Mirren as we post.Surely there must be someone left in their academy that we can sign on loan. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giving me nightmares already Just as well we have 7 points on Dumbarton and Alloa but they have both got a game in hand that could turn it into 4 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t actually agree that there are literally *no* positives. For so long, we’ve been a one man club, entirely reliant on performances from DGW. Even when we had decent players around him, it was always the Goodwillie show. Without him we had absolutely nothing. If anything, this forces development in his absence. Don’t get me wrong, it could swing either way and we could end up completely fucked, but we have to live without him someday, might as well be now. Also, it’s quite refreshing to not be the team that has an actual rapist on the books - not that it absolves us. He’s been a great servant to the club though, no doubt. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just about owe our very existence as a club to him, we would be rooted at the bottom of the league this year without his goals and assists, if that’s not leading by example as a captain on the field what is, come on! Of course we owe our very existence to him, and his skills and professionalism were fantastic and we are unlikely to see anyone as good for the foseeable future. He's is going to be sorely missed. But as a motivator/organiser on the pitch he didn't do it for me I'm afraid. His role up front kept him too remote from thick of it to be fully effective. Only my opinion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Replays Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Remember the w**kfest that took place when he said he wanted to stay until he was 40, in the summer? It’s amazing what half a season playing alongside that shower does to you. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think more likely to end up completely fucked which could easily still happen this season as our luck has to change at some points as the points amassed to date is far more than our performances deserve 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Best of luck to him at Raith, I wish we had sorted it a bit earlier than a couple of hours before deadline day, but happy to have Jamieson in.Onwards and upwards…. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally don’t think the role of captain is that important compared to years ago Any player will tell you that a good team needs to have 4 or 5 “captains” in the side 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was never going to happen-but just shows you that players talk a lot of sh*** as he did say that would stay as long as Clyde wanted him too. But I did think we would have him for the rest of his contract so just really a bit pissed off tonight that he has moved on Whether it the right move for him only time will tell but it will just drag everything back up with him surely alienating a portion of the raith fans and given bigger crowds will get stick week in week out which had largely died down with us 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shetto Clyde Man Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 31 minutes ago, Bullyweeno1 said: Basically said the same above To leave it till 10.30pm on transfer deadline day basically shows the shambles of board we have. It should have been done at least a week ago or no deal unless at least £100k which it won’t be It will be less than £50k plus some if they get promoted So you know exactly all the details about the deal and the timings of it, plus you know all the details of fee and Add ons? of course you don’t, but would definitely suggest you get involved and reach out to the board to offer your expertise. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haufdaft Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Any news on Jamison's injury?Hopefully it's not the Jones/Tade combo for the near future.Three league goals between them this season. Balatoni almost has more own goals than those two combined.Perhaps, in the long run, we shouldn't be trying to replace Goodwillie directly. We simply won't be able to do that. Use the Goodwillie windfall, strengthen the rest of the squad. Rather than being a one man team we sign a creative midfielder, good attackers and better defenders. The problem is it's too late this window. It's a case of hanging on to next season and hoping our one man team doesn't plummet down the league to relegation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always said the board was in a difficult position when a players head is turned and they want to move away Most of us would be the same if we were offered a significant increase in our salary to move to another job doing the same as what we do the now Reality is DGW could be the difference to RR getting promoted direct or via the playoff this season and if that happens he can renegotiate on personal terms when in premier league On your point about knowing all the details I didn’t know everything but; 1. Know the person that has been advising DGW over the last month or so 2. Know DGW best friend as he is a client of mine through my day job So had more of an insight of what was happening than your average joe public 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karpaty Lviv Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Going to be a real battle to stay up this season from now. There cannot be any more excuses though during the summer, if the standard of signings doesn’t improve, I honestly don’t think we will ever be able to get it right. If we have this massive pot of money in our player budget it has to be reinvested. Every penny of it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The board won’t reinvest all DGW saved salary next year in the playing budget I would guess 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
