Don't think any of the fringe players who came into the side made any sort of claim for a starting spot. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon even if you stuck Stuart Cosgrove on Jamie Bain you’d have scored a few more. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clydeside Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Lennon giving the footballing authorities both barrels in his post match interview. We certainly might've made some better choices this past week in team selection and tactical terms but he's not wrong that the deck has seemed stacked against the part-time teams this season. Particularly insofar as we've had to make exceptionally difficult trade-offs between league and cup success. The full-time teams and part-time championship teams haven't had to do the same of course. Good on Saints for giving up the early kick-off by the way. It'd surely have been an added advantage for them. And one which the SFA would've insisted on without their agreement, if I understand rightly. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David W Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 The teams should have had a contingency plan in place before the season started. The SPFL board tried to lead on that and were told to shove it. The teams should not have agreed on a 22 game schedule. I think it's a disgrace that we (Clyde) voted for it. The SPFL board wanted an 18 game season and were told to shove it. He is right to question why the SFA were arranging games for 1145 on a Saturday morning. That's a fair gripe. He has to look closer to home for his other complaints though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 That was a pretty horrific watch. Glad we managed to get ahead because we certainly didn’t look like doing much after the 21st minute. May giving the manager a dilemma now. He’s not scored since October and his form is collapsing off a cliff as well. He definitely doesn’t justify the big wage he’s getting any more and the club shouldn’t pay it based on sentiment alone. It’ll be sad if he’s let go but we can surely do better for the money he’s paid. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bullyweehutch Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Danny is absolutely spot on. The sfa and splf see the lower leagues as a cancer. They would soon rather have 36 old firm matches a season than see that the other clubs are looked after in particular leagues 1 and 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PauloPerth Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Agree with the Clyde fans that this season’s Scottish Cup has been massively stacked against them. I guess it’s the only way to fit all the matches in, despite it being really harsh on the lower league teams. But let’s be honest, unless it’s your own team that win it, it’s going to be a completely forgettable tournament for every other side anyway with no away trips etc. Whilst I agree that in general terms Scottish football is all geared upto serve the premiership clubs, and the big two in particular, I think lower league clubs are lucky they’ve had any football at all this season. In the midst of a global pandemic, lockdowns and regional travel restrictions, the fact that part time football was allowed to continue was pretty generous. Just about every other sport and activity and most businesses were stopped from operating, yet part time football ran for a good part of the season outwith the couple of months in the new year. You could make a case why should any football at all carry on which would be justified, though I think that was in part to give the masses some form of entertainment and keep them quiet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BullyWeeStonehouse Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 (edited) I miss the days we used to travel up to McDiarmid Park to battle it out towards promotion to the SPL. Changed days!

CM. Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Feared a right doing after 2 in the first 20 mins but credit to the guys for sticking in there and that coupled with some poor St Johnstone finishing kept the score line respectable. Could've even had an interesting finish had Jamiesons goal stood. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not even sure May had a shot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't adapt to the manager's system. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Marly Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 What can we take from that game? Stevie May is finished, MOH can run but can't play football and Parish would somehow be a worse option than clownshoes.If Guy goes, and that looks a certainty now, we must find at least one very good striker. Probably two. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akuram Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 May was as poor as I have seen him this season. If he can’t get goals against lower league opposition then no wonder he hasn’t scored since October. Thought Clyde improved second half and they to me looked very fit and if they tired it didn’t show.The only thing Parish had to do he made a pigs ear out off and that should have cost us a goal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
