Can’t really argue with any of the above, I would also add that although Irvine wasn’t great he at least appeared to try hard and care, the defeats seemed to hurt. Ray doesn’t give a flying fudge, or at least that’s the impression I get.

Would you not keep Nditi?

That was horrific today, what must the ‘84 players and management thought. The modern players are probably better athletes but each of those old guys had more skill and football brains than anything on show today. Nditi and Munro were good but the rest were clueless. We looked safe but have quickly fallen into the mire again, can’t see us getting anything next week up north so it’s definitely squeaky bum time.

The wind is picking up, bright and sunny right now but rain forecast for later. It’s fairly mild temperature too.

They were every bit as good as legend has it. I think we should resign Clark, Liddell and McDonald for the day.

I don’t think the Loons are out of danger just yet. That’s not to say they’ll be attacking and positive.

I went to watch Lochee v Kirrie when we were away to Stranraer, really enjoyed it and, as you say, several ex Loons in the ‘Chee ranks. I’d rather pop through to their games than travel to away games right now.

It’s starting to feel like Forfar Athletic are a feeder club for a big Dundee team, that being Lochee United

I hope it’s Ray McKinnon

I wouldn’t be at all surprised if it was our 15th draw in 30 games

For the record, the “Forfar fans” causing the bother referred to in the club statements were not present at the Clyde game or yesterday and have hopefully decided to stay away. The group in question were new faces, not supporters and clearly only there for one purpose. Clyde fans didn’t abuse Forfar players before Andy Munro celebrated in front of them? Eh, no that’s certainly not true.

Sounds about right, particularly the bored part. That said this week’s opposition fans are a decent bunch so we can be comfortably bored rather than watching out for knuckle draggers wanting to fight folk and having to take an alternative route out of the ground for the safety of our kids.

For his celebration alone

It’s been fairly frequent that when a Forfar player or manager wins a monthly award it precedes a disastrous next game

The Clyde fans set themselves right up beside the Fan Zone, which yesterday housed the players from the 2014 Community Club squad. It’s long been tradition in the lower leagues, where possible, to change ends at half time, something I remember doing at Shawfield back in the day. For that reason I would lay the blame with the new Forfar stewarding team. Regards yesterday, yes the young Forfar fan in the white jacket was goading the Clyde fans, his conduct is not for me but it says more about the Clyde fans’ reaction than it does about him. There was one older Clyde fan giving the Forfar fans stick from well before that. We recently had a group of youngsters that came for three games and were intent on trouble, thankfully they appear to have got the message to stay away. Interestingly one young local fan I know was at Stranraer last week and asked their supporters, who were peacefully standing alongside each other, about the trouble with Clyde the week previous. Their version of events was Clyde fans “attitude” was the issue. Which brings me to my final point, most games pass with no trouble but there seems to be a common denominator and it’s a small section of Clyde fans, just saying….
