BrigtonClyde Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 Had a feeling he'd switch it up last night. I understand the thinking but it's the wrong thing to do. We've made an unnecessary accommodation for Annan which ended up playing a bit more to their strengths than ours. Warm night, you want the guys that are good on the ball, move them about all game, they'd have been out on their legs with 10 or 15 to go. Likely the idea was make sure we're still in it for Saturday, which we are, and but for a missed pen would've been a stronger position. Annan are very well organized set up first and foremost not to get beat, rigid and structured. This is where guys like Banks etc are a nightmare for them, they want something more predictable playing in front of them. Home or away in any game, Annan will be Annan and fair play to them, but we know exactly what to expect. Clyde should be a very different animal on Saturday - they'll clearly need to be - but if we get back playing to our strengths at home, still fancy us to win. If it was more than a one goal deficit, maybe a different story. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Annan score first it will make it incredibly hard, suit them perfectly as they'll be able to sit in even more, but with our form this season do you really think we couldn't possibly come back to win 2-1 and take it to extra time, at the very least. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was more than a one goal deficit, maybe a different story.I agree I think Lennon's first thought was not too lose by more than one , which for me is strange thinking considering we hadn't lost to Annan in something like 10 games That said you can't factor DGW missing a penalty inside 10 mins. Totally different game Saturday, We have to start with a high tempo and shift the ball quickly Rankin and Cuddhy are big misses to the team but we still have enough to win the tie Tough game ahead but it's there for the taking up to management and more importantly the players to step up to the plate Big crowd Big expectation so it's basically time to p**s or get off the pot ( as my old man like to put it [emoji23]) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wouldnt be I agree, but thankfully its nothing like that every week. I didn't enjoy those tactics and didn't enjoy the game, two good sides in great form who've been playing some good stuff lately.... should've been a cracker, but was of course a scrappy and frustrating watch. 10 hours ago, Adolfo Rios said: One poorly defended long throw aside there really wasn’t much in it. Neither keeper has had a save of note despite what the stats say. There wasn't much in it no, but the stats are correct. Annan did have a lot of efforts on target but almost all of them were tame and right at Currie. At least 2 Nade headers and his half hit volley for example. I'm delighted Annan have some sort of lead, but fear it won't be enough. An early Clyde goal on Saturday and they have the momentum. Annan could and maybe should have scored on the break late on last night, I hope it's tight enough for long enough at Broadwood that there's a few more breakaway chances, and that this time one of them counts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clyde soccer trendy Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 f**k sake I’ve only read the last three pages and already I’d rather die of aids than share a forum with these Clyde fans next year. Don’t go Annan! Hopefully you do [emoji1360] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nickCFC58 Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 Christ Annan are a horrible team to play. Was 48 mins when they started seriously wasting time, worse than QP under Gus McPherson. Was surprised at the size of their home support, just goes to show how much excitement these playoffs can generate 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
