cfcuk Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 The Clyde team has been so inconsistent this season which is where the frustration and widely different opinions on the team and Barry are coming from. We have looked like league winners in some games and utterly shite in other games. We keep putting wee runs together where we will win most of our games and then lose 3 or 4 in a row. This is our 3rd bad run of the season after two decent runs, the most recent of which got us up to second despite playing Sat , Tue for weeks on end. oh give them a break they are tired Annan played the same amount of games over the same period and loom at there results problem is too many apologists yes we have had some cracking games but when we got to the business end it's either bottle or they simply don't give a s*** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

haufdaft Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 I'm sick and tired of the aimless punts up the park, the unwillingness of midfielders to run beyond the strikers, the unwillingness to hit the byline and cross and Gormley always facing his own goal wrestling the defender then falling over. The defence was all over the place today too. I'm sorry to rip the team apart but when we sign players from the leagues above, I expect them to be better "footballers" , not kick and rush (without the rush) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Spider Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 How's that "biggest and strongest team will win the league" approach working for you? There's absolutely no point in making big signings like Gemmell and then simply hoofing the ball up to him as you're just wasting his main assets of getting on the end of crosses from the byeline, or receiving short range passes at the edge of the penalty area with supporting players just off him. Whilst being acutely aware that we could easily lose our last three games (Elgin away, Clyde at home and Annan away) current form suggests that Elgin are struggling right now, so I still think you'll make the play-offs, and any one of you who says that back in October you wouldn't have bitten my hand off for that outcome is either deluded or a liar. The strategy required for two-leg play-offs are a completely different ball game to that of normal league games (as we've naively found out to our cost in recent seasons) and if you do get there then I think the experience that Ferguson and your senior players have of that environment gives you a slight advantage over the rest of us. However this crazy season ends, all I ask is that it's not a Clyde v QP final................that would just be too intense! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Replays Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 How's that "biggest and strongest team will win the league" approach working for you? There's absolutely no point in making big signings like Gemmell and then simply hoofing the ball up to him as you're just wasting his main assets of getting on the end of crosses from the byeline, or receiving short range passes at the edge of the penalty area with supporting players just off him. Sadly big Gemmell hasn't really been able to get a run of games for us since he tweaked his thigh up at Arbroath, and I believe he was on holiday today, but I agree with this. It does get frustrating to see us hoof balls up to David Gormley with no plan B. Against Berwick at Broadwood, Chris Smith drove into space, crossed the ball in from deep and Gemmell beat the keeper with a header. Since then, when he's played, he's had absolutely no service into him like that and is instead often just used as another battering ram. I think the loss of Scott Ferguson has hurt us badly. He gave us a natural outball, would run at defenders and cross the ball in but since his injury, the team has been far too slow and static, in my opinion. I'd hope that for next season we manage to add some more movement and pace to the team. Obviously, there are other factors, and it's up to Barry and the team to adapt accordingly but I think Fergie's been a big loss for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jambo89 Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 Fantastis result! Thought Johnny and Crane were superb throughout. Also, big blair has taken a lot of stick but has really knuckled down and shown his worth, he is on fire. Positive signs for next year perhaps. Who do we tie down for next year is the next question?

Jambo89 Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 Was also surprised to see McNeil not playing but perhaps that was due to his proposed pre contract with Clyde? However thought Beveridge slotted in and done well also. Very pleased fan tonight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
