Qos v Clyde this Saturday

[arrol1919]

Clyde have drawn against Falkirk , Dunfermline and Alloa since the sacking of Danny Lennon so I can’t see this being an easy fixture for the South this weekend.
Hope we’ve a new manager in place by then but it’s also important we get the right person in place.
Reilly returns to the squad after illness.

It would be great to see a good few extra punters turn up because it's Hogmanay, but as usual, circumstances have conspired to paint as negative a picture as possible ...... which is just such a huge shame for the club.

A new manager in place might just change that Jardi ?

If that were the case Arrol, I would agree.

There are a few things to be very positive about: 1) a new manager 2) a brand new year is starting 3) we have the bonus of the January window to add the necessary quality and 4) we really aren't that far away from a very decent squad.

However, that is the bigger picture and the paying punter needs a wee bit more than that, as we know, but it would be a huge boost if someone with exciting credentials was to come on board and simply state "I will take this club to the play offs for the Championship"

There’s a supporter on Doonhamer Facebook page asking for an EGM as he’s not happy with the way things are going and the lack of communication again from the board.

Given that we are in the middle of 2 major public holidays and the vast majority of people are off for 2 weeks, - its sounds to me as though this person has too much time on their hands!

Everyone is entitled to time off at Christmas and New Year.

He may want an EGM, - but what would be the point.......no-one would turn out at this time of year!

Good God, I honestly didn't think that the potential sprinkling of good news would be trampled on so quickly, - just who in their right mind would be a Board member?

It's Hogmanay on Saturday and the perfect opportunity to end the old year.....We should get ourselves along for a blow out and shake off the shackles and negativity. .. ...come on folks ask your friends and relatives along for a special day.

As poor a game as you could ever wish to see. Three points gratefully accepted. Clean sheet = no Currie. Coincidence??

Absolutely. Three things stuck out for me in this match. The first was having young cowrie in goals. He came for almost everything flung into his six yard box and was commanding. His kicking wasn’t great but he has shown he deserves a run of games and will improve as his confidence grows. He seems to have filled out a bit over the past year and has a bit of presence about him

The disappointing part is why the hell was young Gibson getting played like an old style full back in the first half. This lad is 17 years old and has all the ability to beat players with his direct approach yet he is played in a position to do the opposite. He was pushed more forward in the second half and low and behold we start putting on the pressure and he attacks the full back with the ball and gets a goal, but was also looking to make runs behind the full back at every opportunity. Why the hell managers insist in stopping players playing to their strengths I don’t know.

The final point is the difference with Ross Irving coming on. Suddenly we had a centre forward who was making runs and looking to defend from the front. He made more runs than Reilly has done in the last three games and was doing it with an enthusiasm that has been missing.

So for all it was a grim watch for the majority, please please keep these young players playing in there right positions as they at least bring a determination to the side which has been missing all season and may give there more experienced colleagues the kick up the arse that they need
