  1. Utter Shite - 90 minutes of utter shite. How long is it going to be before someone realises the continual high ball up to McGuigan is not working. A low driven ball across the box in 5 minutes and we score. Anderson's shot crashes of the bar and that is basically it nada for the rest of the match. Unable to compete in midfield and unable to clear a ball out of the box. 4 shots on goal in a home match - great stuff. Smith MOTM - unable to catch a ball and only appears interested in argueing with the opposition and and shouting at the crowd. That today was genuinly embarrassing and if it continues McMenamen will be lucky to see the end of September. Our signings look poor, we do not seem to have a game plan other than the hoof up the park which is done slowly with no urgency to our game and there is certainly no plan B. Congrats to City - you wanted the win and played hard and well for it. When you got the ball you knew what you were doing with it.
  2. Surely time for an urgent request to get Conor McBrearty back before all is lost.
  3. Definately need a couple of decent midfielders and another striker as well as defence cover. So much for increasing our budget. I know some of the names that were being bandied about and failed to materialise but so far less than impressed with what we have brought in.
  4. We really need someone from the club to update the 1st team squad to show us exactly who we have at this time. Is Connor Duthie still at the club? Betfred Cup games are only a couple of weeks away so what is the position with the squad.
  5. Spoke with a AR fan at work this week and he seriously fancies them for a top 3 place under Harper. They were dreadful when we played them last year but Harper has apparently turned them round. Will be interesting to see.
  6. Best wished to Clyde hope you stuff this lot. Took the piss time wasting from the 10th minute and the referee was conned on more than one occasion. That said our tactics were poor and we seldom pressed them. Poor defending cost us again. Staring to get concerned by Smith as he beomes more dependant on punching the ball. We really needed to play the ball to feet more than we did. Breadner should have been canned long before he was and was there anyone who looked more diinterested than Morgan Neill. We cannot rely on the punt to McGuigan all next season. Would imagine Reid, Neill and probably Ferry and Duthie have played their last gmes for us and the rumour mill has it that Hurst is on his way as well. Let's also have less loan players as well. next season.
  7. It was an organised march with certain conditions attached and given Council approval. This meant that the march had to be policed and certain roads closed off to facilitate the march and an approval was given for it to be started at a certain time. This has obviously been breached and at a cost to the public post
  8. Good game yesterday full of incident. Felt East Fife were quite cynical at times although the ref allowed play to continue and took no action afterwards. Donaldson's goal was a cracker and probably GOTS. We ceratinly looked a better team when Gibbons replaced Dingwall and Duthie was driving on and looked good when he came on. Great saves from Smith kept us in the gameespecially the penalty. Please no silly penalty late in the game next week. Only concern is Marsh's booking. That takes him to 12 for the season and is it a 1 match ban after every 3? If so does he miss next week or the play off's? All to play for next week and at least a draw will do, Brechin will have to come at us and we should have chances on the counter.
  9. He made a mess of it at the end of last season. The team was fairly reasonable and the defence only needed a few tweaks. Instead it appears he assumed a number of players would be resigning when in actual fact they were making plans to go to other clubs. The loss of Ross Meachan, Ross Dunlop and David Marsh were sore ones and the replacement he brought in especially Reid and Tena were an absolute joke. The timing of and the time it took to make a substitution were also a joke. McMenamen made a first half sub on Saturday as things were not working out - Ferguson would never have done that. Too many times the substitutions were made too late in the game. Under him we never looked like winning two games running.
  10. Copied from SPL Forum as a point of interest to us ES Clydebank's first game in their only Scottish league season, 64-65, which finished in a draw against Stenhousemuir. Crowd was 6000, scorers were Arthur Hamill scoring both for the home side, with Stenhousemuir equalising and then leading through Pat Henderson and Bobby Bryce respectively. That's Hamill's first, the first ever ES Clydebank goal, lower right.
  11. Why does it need to be estimated???????? Actual crime, recorded crime and now estimated crime. Pish!!!! So we are looking at a graph of 3 estimates, Lower Estimate. Best Estimate and Upper estimate and nothing actually factual. You have no idea how crime is recorded and the steps being taken to avoid recording it and this can easily equate to the reduction in officers who are actually on the street. Rather than have an officer call on a victim, the victim is asked to phone in the crime, which costs the victim, or go along to the office if they can find one open.
  12. Hardly surprising given the number of false promises - ending early release, Scottish power supplier etc and the failure to implement any new laws thus far this year. Issues with Police Scotland, NHS and Scotrail not to mention the issues with schools. The will of the People and Scottish Parliament quickly overlooked by Swinney as it does not suit. Sturgeon, at every FMQ, comes away with the same crap every week about how we are better than England and Wales. Will think about that if I am lying on a hospital trolley for hours or waiting over the prescribed time for treatment. Also on virtually every answer she gives a silly wee laugh as if the question is beneath her to answer. A tired government which needs to take a radicl look at itself sooner rather than later.
  13. Well aware of the support the British Gov is giving but we are talking about a party who condemn their actions (uk gov) but are happy to fund a company supplying these weapons
  14. But maybe better than being associated with a group of child killers? https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/politics/cash-bombs-scandal-saudi-air-13103018
  15. Squad starting to take shape. Still light in a few areas and will be interesting to see who comes in. . Disappointed that Ross Dunlop has left as he was a decent defender.
  16. So responsible drinkers now to be penalised for the minority who cannot control thmselves . Lets now have minimum pricing on everything deemed by the nanny state to be bad for us. Let's start with fast food shops and high sugar drinks.
