Boss Talk

Following on from today’s news that David Hutton and Dusan Bestvina had signed new contracts, Colin Hendry spoke to the Official Website to give supporters some more insight into the work going on behind the scenes:-

“I appreciate that the fans may find it difficult to understand when there are long periods of no news but I want the support to realise there is stuff going on in the background. However, I will not divulge the names of my targets and conduct the club’s business through the press. That is not my style.

“The exception of course has been James Grady, as Gretna have made him available. What I would say in this matter is that I’ve gone as far as I can. It is now up for James to decide. I believe it is a great opportunity for him and I would be delighted if he was to commit to the club but if it’s not to be then we move on. The reason why I’ve spent some time on it is that I believe it will be good business for the club as I need an assistant and we need an experienced forward up front.”

The Clyde Manager also revealed that the efforts being made to add to the squad went beyond the current situation:-

“In the last seven days we have given notification to two clubs that we are speaking to a couple of players about signing pre-contract deals with us. I hope that, and David’s and Dusan’s signatures, prove that I am in this for the long haul. I am not looking to duck out at the earliest opportunity and I am working hard to get Clyde back to winning ways.”
