Ah but Racism and Rape isnt a funny matter, is it? But you make light of employing one of each. Soap dodging. You have us mixed up with your pals at Celtic FC. Remember, we are the West End Luvvies.

Good old Clyde😂

[Ignoramus 23]

Another Rangers kid in - midfielder Jack Thomson - on loan. He’s described as ‘combative’ on the Rangers website so there’s that. 
 

Amazing how we have these links to Celtic with Diamond and then sign half of Rangers’ youth team. Not convinced another young player is what we need but not sure what other options we have.

[Clyde85 23]

Great another young boy 🙄

[BullyWeeStonehouse 796]

The boy Palmer is a young guy but he seems to have done well and made a difference when he’s played. There’s no reason Thomson can’t do the same.

[SLClyde 732]

I’ll hold off any opinion until I’ve seen the boy Thomson, if the alternative is the likes of Kevin Nicol then why not. 

[haufdaft 1,737]

Recently we've a pretty poor record of taking youths on loan that impressed.

I can only think of Waddell, Gourley, Cogill and Banks.

The latter two, even though they made a significant contribution, spent a lot of their time on our bench.

Have I missed any?

Jack Boyle was quite good when he was on loan iirc.

Lamont was on loan, albeit not utilised at all until mid January.

How far back are we going? Scott McMann was excellent although unfortunately injured for most of his spell. The same with Craig Halkett. Duffy had a few decent centre halves (Fordyce, Lamie) and goalies (Feely, Mentel), though I'm not sure how old they were at the time we signed them.

I would agree the list of players that I've not named is far greater than that and contains some players that clearly weren't good enough, or grown-up enough, to play.

[Ignoramus 23]

Not technically a loan, but the mere mention Celtic and Scotland youth player Jack Breslin makes me shudder.

I do agree that we have had a poor record in getting good loan players through the door compared to other clubs in the same divisions as us. Montrose are a good example, they always seem to have two or three loanees that make a real difference to their team.

You could argue we done that last January bringing in Livingstone and Cunningham (and Lang I suppose but we already knew his qualities) even though it took a few games for us to see a difference.

Elgin or Ayr away if we get through 

[ScottR96 1,577]

God forbid we ever find ourselves in the L2 relegation play off in the future, they’d probably put us in the Highland League if we lost. 

Assuming Ayr come through the Elgin tie we will lose, and on the off chance Elgin come through, we will lose.

Both would be tough opponents. Elgin thumped us last season 3-0 at Borough Briggs. Kane Hester is very quick, can turn defences and a natural finisher. 

Ayr are clearly a strong Championship side.

Saying that a strong Clyde performance and you've got a good chance 👍
