  1. Live score so showing today's formation. WTF? Danny Lennon still manager?
  2. I went to Elgin midweek, we lost I went to Stranraer, we lost. I went midweek against Forfar, we lost. I thought f**k it I'm not going to Stenhousemuir... I'm starting to think I'm a Jonah.
  3. Do you honestly think signing 35 players, many of which are from the leagues above is sustainable over an extended period with attendances around 200? I genuinely don't think it is. It'll end at some point. Look at Gretna and Edinburgh City for example.
  4. You may be right. However the idea that football may no longer be a live spectator sport but followed on social media or on TV is a sad one. I wonder where EK will be in 20 years time after decades of mediocre league performances. I suspect their support will not come close to Clyde's current attendance. EK's money will run out eventually.
  5. East Kilbride FC 13 years old. Bankrolled by the Kean's. Few supporters. Mostly fans of the Old Firm Stadium in country park Shallow stand with five rows of seating with no back support. Empty shell of a club. Clyde are a proper historical club with proper supporters As are Cowdenbeath, Berwick Rangers and Albion Rovers. I'd be careful what you wish for. League tables should decorate who's in which league but don't pretend the fan experience is better at these empty shell clubs than at "traditional" clubs
  6. Whereas angry Queens Park supporters doff their bowler hats, dirty their spats and silence their rattles.
  7. Is it wrong that I am starting to dislike Rennie so much?
  8. Approaching halftime yesterday I had a wee chuckle to myself when the Stranraer toddlers (ultras) started singing that they wish they played us every week. I found it funny because up to that point it was still 0-0 in a match that was devoid of goals, skill and any entertainment. Why the hell would you want to watch that every week? Anyway, I suppose the last laugh was on me
  9. That will be the first time Cameron has ever squared up an opposition player.
  10. Some considered reflections on today's match from me: Two away games in a row where we've resorted from kickoff to aimless punts up the park. It's bad enough that Allan is slightly taller than a dwarf but at least punt the ball into the same hemisphere as he's occupying. Allan looks as pissed off as I do when another punt rolls out of play or into the goalkeepers arms. Is McCall afraid of real grass? Does he feel that our midfield cannot cope with a wee bobble? Elgin was exactly the same. Taking Allan off at 0-1 to be replaced by Cameron? Surely that's McCall taking the piss. McGinn was my MOTM last week. Benched this week for Lyon. Who was just... Ross Lyon (forever in my house a synonym for abysmal) King, as predicted is back to his anonymous self. Howie, has he left his footballing talent in Australia? If I see another Clyde player blindly hook the ball over their shoulder I may shit myself in fury. Parry, summed up by the predictive texts on my phone changing his name to "pussy". Rennie, hopefully I live long enough to see him once, just once, seriously challenging for a 60/40, never mind a 50/50. That police taser was really sore
  11. When the highlights come out, look where Parry's positions himself before the second goal. He places himself into the right back position WITHOUT the ball. WTF? He then literally sauntered back towards his area as Stranraer picked up the ball. If I was being mischievous I could jokingly suggest he had Stranraer to win 2-0 on his coupon.
  12. More action in the terracing than on the pitch during that first half.
  13. I wish I could tell you about the match but my eyes are still bleeding
  14. I'm not as concerned as many others seem to be. Even if we finish bottom we still have the opportunity of the playoffs and I think we'll smash Brechin or smug Kennedy's mob. Although I'd rather not finish bottom. Just in case
  15. I've tried looking at the Stranraer website but I can't find the info in looking for. Do you pay cash or cashless at the turnstile or is it a ticket office? Can you buy online?
  16. Unfortunately, he was offside or on his arse for 90% of his time at Clyde. Although he was unplayable at home against Ayr that night. What a performance.
  17. How many times does it have to be said, Jimmy Choo is NOT a Clyde supporter. He never had been. He's simply a troll. Mute the bore.
  18. I wasn't optimistic about our most recent 18 year old full back loanee but I thought young McGinn was excellent. Well done!
  19. Disappointed that once again we have not addressed the full back positions to the level I would've hoped. We now have an 18 year old left back on loan. How many of these have we seen over the years before they're dropped, never too be seen again. Hopefully he surprises me but he did look like a skinny, lightweight 18 year old to me on Tuesday night. Dunachie at right back? He did a decent job filling in there but his flaws in that position are becoming more and more obvious. Our last resort will be another loanee. Please God, no more 18 year olds from your Hamiltons or Kilmarnocks of the world.
  20. Allan's touch isn't great for holding the ball up. It's was made even worse last night by the ball arriving at head height. He needs it over the top to run onto or to his feet
  21. If I recall correctly, we also had an opportunity to clear the ball before the cross came in
  22. I feel some are forgetting how bad Parry was before he was dropped. He was flapping at almost every cross and cost us many goals. Both aren't good enough. If Leighfield still gets in the team before Parry it tells you a lot about McCall's opinion on the matter.
  23. I suspect the last couple of signings are to make good the promise of eight signings by our director of football. I can't believe those players are the quality Maitland had in mind when he made the statement at the Q&A. I hope I'm proven wrong but I'm not optimistic.
