He helped Albion Rovers win the League 2 title in 2014-15 and was part of the Brechin side who won promotion to the Championship last season..

Lennon said: "I was pleasantly surprised to hear that Ally was available and he was keen to be playing regular football again.

"I think for him to come out of the Championship and go to League 2 level, it had to be to a club like Clyde, with the infrastructure and the work that the board are doing behind the scenes. I also worked with Ally before at St. Mirren so he knows what I'm about and that was maybe a factor.

"He's a player that consistently gets goals and assists and that's something we need to add to our recent performances.

"He also works his socks off on the other side of the game and it doesn't surprise me that he has gone on to have success since leaving St. Mirren.".
