All the platitudes about "the boys have worked hard in training this week" will not stop the inevitable here. FWIW the post match "we will need to work harder in training this week" will make zero difference the following week.

We'll get battered today - even if it's only 1-0 - because the experimental low level juniors and Alloa weans combination is an absolute joke.

At least after today it'll no longer be 10 consecutive defeats in 10 competitive matches. I was getting bored saying that....................

Just back from Fuerteventura - where we were mentioned in harsh jocular banter over there ! - might have been something to do with wearing the Albion top whilst watching Scotland on the big screen ! Anyway this is tough today - if Clyde have been where I was then we have a chance - but soberly think it will be 3-0 home win

Be interesting to see what others made of that today. It was all one way traffic towards the Rovers goal in the first half. Goal came about following a good run from the Clyde guy who wasn't tackled or even remotely worried as he made 60 - 70 yards and won a corner. Short corner not closed down, ball into the box poorly defended but their guy finished smartly.
We defended well if very deep and the keeper had 2 top class saves and a few other really good ones too. Goodwille missed a sitter.
Positives: Keeper looks good. Commands his box. Plays the sweeper keeper role. Is tall as well. One or 2 minor handling errors but a step up at least. Bringing Wharton on changed the game as we seemed to go to a back 3 maybe? We came into the game more after that and looked the more likely to score. Not a bad performance over the piece but we're still lacking quality. It's no longer 10 defeats in 10 games! Decent battling performance away to Clyde who are a fair bit better than Rovers. Sean Fagan looks decent, gave Ally Love (diving git) a bit of an afternoon. Physio looks a step up too - no offence JD.
Not the worst Saturday afternoon I've spent this season. Still nothing to show for it ultimately.

We’re slowly being cut adrift at the bottom of the table, that’s us 4 points away from Cowdenbeath, who we play next

GK had 3 or 4 brilliant saves today, certainly looks the part, pity that cant be said about the rest of them.

Wasn't good again today
Keeper stopped it being 6 some world class saves. Man of the match by a mile
Wharton came on looked more solid
Cant remember a single shot on goal never mind on target
Mclear had a horrible game
Gracie is a passenger. He's not a footballer. Lazy, can't jump, moaned at other players constantly
For me his worst moment was taking a head knock think it Burst his nose a bit, but he walked round the park for the next 15 mins with a Hanley in his hand wiping it. Needs to man up
Brogan has to go. He can't be allowed to do anymore damage.
Played 11 Won 0 Draw 0 Lost 11 For 4 Against 33
Difference -29
Anyone could do better, get him out now.

Keeper was brilliant think he will do well in a career in football
John brogan is a liar if it wasn't for the keeper would have been 6
Nobody ( bar the keeper) played well we didn't push them at all
We didnt have a chance on goal
A liar and a terrible manager

Had to shake my head at Ally Love today. JB and Colin were giving out instructions at the touchline and Ally turns around and is about to have a go at them, still a moany wee git. I thought the first half was really poor today but much better showing in the second half, the players did not seem so intimidated in the 2nd half. Thought Peter Morrison was superb today. 2 one-on-one situations and he saved them both. It is a concern though that no shots were on target and no corners either and should have done better when the Clyde goalie rushed off his line and was still at the touchline when the throw was taken. I will accept a 1-0 defeat though when other predictions given were a lot worse.

OK might surprise some people on here however I agree John's time is up. The team set up just looks so disorganised.
That's all.
