A Message From Your Editors
Welcome to the new website! Thanks for your patience over the last few weeks as we’ve worked to get the website live before Sunday’s Challenge Cup Final. Given this unexpected deadline we will have to ask for your patience again as some sections of the site have still to be added but we’ll keep you up to date on the progress.
We’ll also bring you more news soon on how and when site membership will be implemented. Make sure you keep hold of your ‘old’ login details as these will almost certainly be needed to access some or all of the new members’ sections and new memberships will be issued as soon as possible to those wanting to sign-up.
As well as a full revamp of all the old site’s features we are delighted to bring you some new pages which, courtesy of the survey we carried out in the summer, we realised were important to supporters. Already launched is a fantastic journey through Clyde’s history, written by Alan Henderson. As well as a Chat Room (which we’re sure the exiles in particular will enjoy on matchdays!) we will very soon have regular audio clips and the star attraction of Match Highlights thanks to our Video Technician Andrew Muir.
In addition to this we have a number of other new faces to the website team ready to keep the regular content and features in better shape than ever. You can see the full list on our Directory page and, as ever, if you feel there’s anything you can contribute we’d be delighted to hear from you.
We mentioned the Cup Final and we hope to have some great bonus content for you this week which will utilise the site’s new technology. Watch this space!
We’d like to offer some thanks to people who have helped get us to this stage; The Board for their 100% backing of the project and in particular David Dalziel for all his support; The Lorne Greig Consultancy for their hard work; Norrie Jamieson, Editor of the St.Mirren Official Website, for his valuable advice and guidance and all our sponsors who helped make it possible. With regards pictures, the following people are due big thanks:-

We hope you enjoy the site and we apologise for the inevitable teething problems that any new website encounters in the first couple of weeks. If you find anything wrong please contact us as we might not be aware of it.
C’mon the Clyde!
