macclyde+ Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Don't think Stirling will ever have a better chance, as Peterhead and Clyde 2 of the 3 strongest teams in the League last year, and the third losing a lot of players (although could recruit well again given Murphy's previous signings). Certainly don't think Brechin and Stenny will bring as much to the table Be good to see Stirling in League 1, always a cracking away day (presuming we retain L1 status !). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stenny have McGuigan which certainly help them quite a bit, agree that Brechin won't be up to much though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll need to stop making it easy for the visitors at Forthbank. Making it easy for visitors will be one of the reasons macclyde thinks it's a cracking away day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakeSAFC Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Looks like we're announcing a signing today. Anyone got any ideas? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CM. Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 (edited) Stirling are probably about the only side in league 2 now that I wouldn't class as diddies so decent move and good luck to him. Probably won't be a starter every week but very useful player to have on the tight pitches or to bring on to shore it up when defending a lead. Will be suspended a few times Edited June 1, 2019 by C.

David W Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Kevin Nicoll. A good ball-winner, as in he'll clatter right through people and won't actually retain possession but it'll get the crowd into the game. Can't turn on the ball, or pass it quickly. Might do a job if you're playing a dogs of war, Annan style. He's the sort of player who has spent a career protecting other midfielders but now needs guys who can run alongside him, which means there are people doing his job anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Wilson and Docherty infront of him you'd imagine they'd do all the running. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Replays Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Certainly did a job for us but I thought he was looking quite done by the end of last season. Nonetheless, he was a good servant for the club over the past couple of years. He could probably last another season in League Two but I’m not sure he could last being a starter every week. All the best to him mind you - he’s a good bloke. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FREDDYFRY Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 He is a ball winner, however can’t pass the ball particularly well so tends to give the ball away again. Role for us was purely to come on and help protect a lead last 15 mins. Did ok job for us and divided opinion I suppose.. I wasn’t a fan but as ever just my opinion, time for him to to move on and best of luck to him. Experienced guy at this level 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shawfield shed boy Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Kevin Nicoll is a class act and very under rated. Old school ball winner but what's wrong with that..??!. Wish him all the very best and i miss him already[emoji29] 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
headthebaw Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 I've always thought Kevin Nichol was a dirty b when we played Clyde. Over physical but dominated midfield. Delighted he's signed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cfcuk Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 absolutely sick of reading Clyde fans on here slagging off a captain that lead us to a promotion after 10 years on the divsion. complete lack of respect 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
