Toxteth O'Grady Posted August 13, 2019 Report Share Posted August 13, 2019 And it's 3-0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelboy Posted August 13, 2019 Report Share Posted August 13, 2019 Clyde played their first team. Obviously they only rest players in this when they think they'll get beat. Goodwillie, Love and McNiff are good players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purestate Posted August 13, 2019 Report Share Posted August 13, 2019 Very disappointing performance from almost all of the Well team. Basic passing and control absent and too easily beaten in challenges. A harsh lesson and absolutely no sign that anyone anywhere near stepping up to first team squad. We also only had three subs and one was goalie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought Devine showed he was more progressed than most of his team mates and had a decent game. Thought our number 2 also showed a lot of promise. Got a free tunnocks wafer though, so that was good.

wellwell91 Posted August 14, 2019 Report Share Posted August 14, 2019 Very young and inexperienced team with only 3 subs one of which was a goalkeeper ???? The young boys did not disgrace themselves and had a good shape to the team and tried to play football Couple of basic mistakes for couple of Clyde’s goals which Goodwillie punished the boys All in all a good learning curve and good experience for them, all about learning at this stage in their career You heard it here first from his overall performance and the way he moved demanded the ball, his distribution of it and strength he showed agains some good experienced pro’s our next young prospect WILL be MATHEW McDONALD this boy has got something about him ………… and he is only 16 years old 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The African Posted August 14, 2019 Report Share Posted August 14, 2019 No harm in getting a lesson at this, or indeed any, level. As long as the lesson is learned. A shame that we will go no further in this competition as I really enjoyed our decent run last season, but the key with this team is really about developing players for the future.

Neilwell86 Posted August 14, 2019 Report Share Posted August 14, 2019 When you look at the difference in the teams between last night and last season, it's incredible. Last years team had Rohan ferguson, Jake hastie, David Turnbull, James scott, Barry mcguire, Liam Brown, Mbulu, we even seen Alex gorrin, and Jamie semple was the youngster, fast forward a year and it's a team of 16 year old boys. 10 hours ago, purestate said: Very disappointing performance from almost all of the Well team.

purestate Posted August 14, 2019 Report Share Posted August 14, 2019 At no point have I called for managers to be fired, players crucified or punted, etc. Don’t understand the comment on computer game or TV show I get to see a reasonable amount of development level football so feel I have a perspective to differentiate between basic technique and application and fully fledged experience and guile. I recognise it was a young team against more seasoned professionals but since Clyde have had a less than stellar start to their season I don’t see why the result and most of the performances cannot be characterised as disappointing? It is important for younger players to get this experience and there are ways of getting it - this competition being one so part of my personal disappointment is that Motherwell FC didn’t seem to take it seriously enough Evidence only 3 subs - Jamie Sempie (scorer last week and not a likely starter on Friday) was there so why not at least on bench Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilwell86 Posted August 14, 2019 Report Share Posted August 14, 2019 I think regardless of there start to the season, they are facing up against 16 and 17 year old boys, David goodwillie gave our first team the run around only last summer, in fact Clyde gave our first team a very nervous 90 minutes last summer. I understand the Jamie Semple point, but you would have to think there is a reason for this, cornelius as well wasn't in either squad however did Maurice Ross not mention last week that even at the early stages of there career these boys were training with the first team more often than not and weren't viewed as reserves/u21/colts despite there age?

Ross Posted August 14, 2019 Report Share Posted August 14, 2019 I thought the 2 centre backs looked like they could be really good players for usSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siebsbarmyarmy Posted August 19, 2019 Report Share Posted August 19, 2019 See the reserves drew 3-3 today with Ross County. Double for Dean Cornelius and one for comeback man Tanner. Tanner also played full 90 mins. Really disappointing coverage by the club however with not a thing mentioned until the end of the game. Piss poor. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steelboy Posted August 19, 2019 Report Share Posted August 19, 2019 Aye if they want the main Twitter account to be for marketing/CV building then they need to start another account which does match updates. The SFA have already went down that route with the @ScotlandNT account doing updates on all the different sides. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Piss poor. not enough interactions, club media channels are only about profile and statistics now, pretty pissed off at it, but said my piece and they are not interested, in what I regard as the basics website is poor , basics keep getting missed, and football match coverage almost non existent, the professionals have won the argument, marketing profile is raised, some viral hits every now and again are enjoyable, probably offers potential for revenue through advertising shame there is no football product to keep customers involved 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelboy Posted August 19, 2019 Report Share Posted August 19, 2019 Aye the argument seems to be that if the club gives us updates on games people will get bored and unfollow. I'm struggling to see how the club are turning Twitter views into revenue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katie Posted August 19, 2019 Report Share Posted August 19, 2019 Personally, I find the tone of most of the twitter output really grating. Without match updates I don’t see much point in it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superward Posted August 19, 2019 Report Share Posted August 19, 2019 Twitter moans aside...(for me it makes no real difference as I dont use it to follow the games) Great to see Tanner with 90 minutes for sure. Cornelius with a couple is very pleasing to see. Hes got bags of skill. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weeyin Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 I agree about the decline in quality of the Twitter/Social Media output. Maybe something than can be brought up at the next Well Society meeting? Definitely sounds like something the members should have a say in.

Good to hear he scored 2 goals. That will surely do his confidence the world of good. Hopefully Craig Tanner is on the road to recovery although it remains to be seen if he regains full fitness.
