Mr November Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 Airdrie’s best spell of the 2019/20 season was playing a 4-2-3-1 with the three being Callum Smith and Dale Carrick out wide and Kurtis Roberts in the middle. Three hard workers who track back, win the ball and drive forward. If you can get him in a system like that you’ll love him. I’m still not entirely sure how good he is. He fitted into that Airdrie team really well, he loved to press high up the pitch and drive forward with the ball but he never seemed fit enough. Indeed, in his one solid run in the team I don’t think he ever completed a full 90 minutes. I wouldn’t expect lots of assists from him but he’ll help push the team up the park and he likes a shot from distance. Fans generally seem to really like him, our fans were constantly moaning about him not playing and then being released but he wouldn’t get near our current midfield. He’s an improvement on some of the jobbers that Clyde had this season though and I think he’ll be a good signing. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only one David Marsh Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 Danny has been backed with a decent budget DG won't be back either board saying it's time to move on from that chapter. New stadium in the works with a couple of sites in Glasgow in talks with GCC with a view to having something substantial in 3-5 years Still paying the same as we did for broadwood but more opportunities in the way of income from matchdays We need to raise 162k over the next year to cover the loss budgeted for (would be less if we had cup run, bigger crowds than expected etc) Players that have been offered deals have until this weekend to sign on again so Danny can move onto other targets There's more I've probably forgotten 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No more UK streaming of matches Traditional season book/ card plus digital option Really supportive statement about DGW's wellbeing that should have been made 3 months ago Main area in stand available for punters for drinks and pie beans / curry rice pre-match. Hospitality upstairs. Pauline behind the bar should be our next signing. DL seems happier with recruitment todate versus last year 5 year deal at NDP reviewed After 3 years We will look at Friday Sunday and reverse fixtures where we clash with Accies Training at K Park on Thurs and Hammy Palace on Tuesday. The shows were there behind the wee stand to welcome us 'travellers' No realistic plans for academy set up 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLClyde Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 Would have to say a Friday night fixture has more appeal than a Sunday 3pm game if we clash with accies. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CM. Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 I can remember a Friday night game against St Mirren in 2003 (IIRC was Scotland v Holland play off weekend to avoid a clash), have we had one since? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David W Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 No, we won 2-0. I'm sure we scored the second really late on and there was chaos with the crowd getting in. My abiding memory of the game was that we had moved to a 442 after starting the season playing a back three. The Adam handball was when Roberts was in charge. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pride Of The Clyde Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 I think the only thing no one has mentioned yet is the situation with Norris Inness. When asked about it we were told they could not discuss it due to legal reasons. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clyde01 Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 Wasn't Grant a wide midfielder or left back..,.He was a central defensive midfielder, although he did from memory fill in as an emergency left back on a couple of occasions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was a ball boy behind the goal he scored into after that handball. One of The most blatant handballs I’ve ever seen at a game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
