- Clyde’s season is over
52: Fifers revived
East Fife have shown more in the first few minutes of the second half than they did for the entire first period. Clyde have to dig in here

Double switch from Danny Lennon - Jamieson and McGlinchey on for Robertson and Lamont
72: Clyde chance
Bit more encouragement for Clyde as Jamieson sends a shot just wide from the edge of the box with Hart scrambling to reach it
75: Nervy Clyde
Clyde understandably looking edgy, lacking the fluency they had the first half. But they need a goal - big 15 minutes coming up
77: Awwwwww
Lovely move puts Bain in space inside the box with time to pick out a team-mate - but he blasts his cross miles beyond the far post. Chance wasted
