Geddes, Jardine, Moffat, Herd etc would be good shouts at a more stable club imho. It'd be fairly mad to give the job of keeping Clyde in the leagues to someone like that. You are thinking of Jim McInally. Jim McIntyre lives central Scotland and if he was to get the job I'd be very happy with it, was doing a very good job at Cove part-time before they sacked them so Sheerin could get his son in law back as manager. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He lives in Dunblane I believe. He's known for popping into Forthbank every now and again to watch games so obviously knows a good number of League 1 & 2 players. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very much doubt he would give that up to take up a 'dream role' with Clyde ! No. He's a personal trainer based in Dunblane. You're thinking of Eddie Howe. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just on Chris Geddes. He has a full time role at UoS as Head of Football, it's his 9 to 5. It harks back to the constant linking of Stewart Petrie to full time clubs but Geds is quite content with UoS by all accounts, he's local, they train during the day and he takes the first team Wednesday/Saturday and the 20s on a Friday night, cannot see him giving that up for a shot at Clyde and having to find a new job. Unless UoS let/support him to progress to a higher level and still continue as Head of Football 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given the budget he had at Cove he done fairly pish and was bagged after a bad run of form that culminated in an absolute shagging off ICT. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottR96 Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 Now that we have the financial backing, there’s no excuse for going for someone currently in the Lowland League or below. Jack Ross and Scott Brown are clearly both mental shouts but I don’t see why we can’t go for some of the other names mentioned who you wouldn’t normally consider as being willing to drop down to League 2. I’ve no doubt Jack Ross will have enjoyed his time at Clyde as a player, but the idea that he’s sitting down in Newcastle misty eyed about our current position and would want to help us out is absolutely insane. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BullyWeeStonehouse Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 (edited) Some of the suggestions on here are class. We’re rumoured to have a bit of cash in the background and all of sudden we’re big enough to attract a coach at Newcastle and Scott Brown who’s managed in league 1 down south. who in the right mind honestly believes they’d drop down to our level and ruin their coaching/ management careers unless they have us in the championship by 2026.

I think the very fact Duffy and then subsequently McLean were appointed (and before money was available) I doubt very much they were on much at all. Doubt it’s a major concern. Also misconception that contract are paid out in full after dismissal it’s percentage of what left seems to be the terms at football clubs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There aren't many managers about that have taken over a squad at the bottom of league 2 like he did with Albion and survived. Albion also noticeably improved from what I can recall and started grinding out results with him as manager. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kempes Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 Glasgow Times is reporting that the greyhound track (Shawfield) could be demolished, as a planning application has been submitted for housing and a hotel.

Any Clyde supporters still living locally should be objecting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
