Nigel Blackwell Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 Regardless, suspect Darren Jamieson will get a break and Curtis Lyle will step in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clyde01 Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 Anyone know why there was no sign of Alex King yesterday? Injury I assume but no mention in the match preview. Not that I’m his biggest fan but the conditions yesterday may have suited him as he’s not afraid to shoot. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It beggars belief that the club are starring the unthinkable in the face and you are asking about a diddy player who has done little to nothing to help with our current plight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamieson and Wedderburn out for the season and we are off the boil in general. Add in East Fife and Elgin to come and Clyde have essentially 3 games against teams who will be playing for nothing and on their holidays. Not that I'd trust McCall much as he has no idea what his best team is surely they can muster enough against 3 teams which should be on holiday? The Bully Wee. In a similar vein, and if I could offer the Bully Wee faithful a glimmer of hope, this Saturday we should be looking to avenge the 5-0 humping we took the last time we were at Stair Park. We are in decent form with four straight shutouts and whilst I think Faz will look to rotate the team now that we are in the playoffs, this creates opportunities for others to impress. I'd certainly start Hilton though as he's looked the part of late and he should know Stair Park very well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David W Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 At least we will have a white kit in the Lowland League. If anyone votes in that Cumbernauld Colts kit as our away strip then it's a worse decision that re-electing Thomson. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the_bully_wee Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Come what may, it's obvious that the club needs a full reset in the summer and we can only hope and pray that these twerps can carry us over the line to ensure that Maitland can oversee it with us still in League Two. Over the piece, I haven't been impressed by McCall or several of the players he's brought in, so I wouldn't say that he should automatically be immune from that reset either. Today felt like a massive missed opportunity against a Stenhousemuir team experimenting with a new formation and six starters missing, their two goals (and several other situations) a very familiar tale this season of a jittery defence handing out freebies in most games. Rennie's been murder for a while now, since every left-back in the league cottoned on to the fact that they can afford to get very tight to him since he lacks any kind of turn of pace to get beyond them. There are a good few I'd immediately parachute Scullion in for next week and he'd be one of them, as the only thing he's offering at the moment is a bit of height. Sula didn't do enough wrong to deserve his dropping for me and if we are looking to offer more of a threat in both boxes then I'd bring he and Dunachie back in, as much as I'm not a big fan of the latter at right-back. Leitch showed once again why he's been a big flop despite his early goal, Kabia makes some hilariously bad decisions at times and it beggars belief that Cammy Ballantyne perpetually manages to be so anonymous. It all just feels so cursed and, as a result, it's impossible to have any belief that we will achieve the results necessary to scrape safety. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
support the underdog Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Ultimately it is who wants it. Next weeks game is very winnable. But it has to be won, no ifs or buts. Elgin away, assuming it still matters, is tough. Again they have nothing to play for but the performances are too erratic to be confident. Sad situation and wishing you 100%. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
support the underdog Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 If Clyde survive one would hope lessons will be learned and yes ex Maitland massive change is needed. There is no point just firing people for the sake without better alternatives but most of the Board should go. If its the worst, and frankly winning the playoffs will be difficult against probably EK who will be confident, massive change is also needed again ex Mailand who I hope sticks around. The loss of income will be massive and unless the mystery donor coughs up it will be a slog. The lesson from the others relegated to the LL is without money rebuilding would take time. That said other clubs have largely held their support and I guess that will broadly continue thus Clyde would be one of the strongest in the league but keeping the donor is critical. I would say Clyde have a 50% chance of surviving - but they must go for it. Draws are now no good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next week is the key one for me. If we can win at home to east fife whilst Stranraer face a long away trip to Forfar that will put us in the driving seat ahead of the last day (assuming Stranraer don’t also win). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamthebam Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Buckie won the Highland League today. Imagine they beat EK in the play off and then decide they don't particularly want to go up. A couple of dodgy own goals in a match against Clyde later... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clyde_MM Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 No change from last week but I'm now thinking it's the play-offs for us. This team just doesn't have the bottle/leadership for the task at hand. Yesterday was a real chance to put points between ourselves and Stranraer. Dumbarton even kept up their end of the bargain, avoiding what looked to be a nailed-on loss. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's the issue...unless they get a massive dose of conscience through self appraisal and resign, the articles of the CIC protect the Directors from being sacked until they are up for re-election every 3 years. Unless the CIC is scrapped, or the articles, written by he who shall not be named, are radically altered, Allan Maitland has a job on his hands to clear out the Boardroom. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clyde_MM Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 Wtf is McCall talking about games running out for Stranraer and Bonnyrigg too in that interview btw hahaha? They'd both be chuffed if the league said to just scrap the last 2 games Ian. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RutherGlen Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 I can just imagine McCall's pre-match team talk next Saturday... "Right lads, *yawn*, erm...who we playing again? Oh aye... that's right. Well, good luck, and mind we're running out of games so don't lose. Where are we in the league again?" Inspiring. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
