There were mixed emotions among the Bully Wee faithful after a day which saw Clyde stretch their unbeaten run to 12 games but fail to take advantage of the goalless draw between promotion rivals Peterhead and Edinburgh City.

But a philosophical Lennon says the rollercoaster ride will continue until the end of the season and conceded that fourth-placed Annan - who thumped Peterhead 3-0 in their last home game and followed that up with an away win at Edinburgh City - had deserved their point, despite the lateness of their 87th minute equaliser.

He said: “To be honest I didn’t feel we were at our best in terms of fluency.

“It’s been start-stop the last couple of weeks in terms of getting our rhythm, with games being off.

“They hounded fantastically well and it’s a very difficult place to come.

“Yes it’s disappointing to lose a goal at that stage of the game, but I thought when you look at a true reflection of the game it was at least what Annan deserved.

“But the boys are on a fantastic run and we’re still very much up there in the mix.

“There’s going to be a lot of twists and turns, there’s nothing gained or nothing lost today and a lot of football has still to be played.”

Next up for Clyde on Saturday is a home match with bottom side Albion Rovers.
