Clyde captain Barry Cuddihy admits there was a real sliding doors moment on Saturday as a last-gasp goal took his side off the foot of the League Two table – but they’ve worked hard for their breaks.

Jordan Allan’s headed goal two minutes into stoppage time earned Clyde a 1-0 win over Stranraer, taking the Bully Wee off the foot of the table, leaving them a point behind their visitors and two off Bonnyrigg Rose in eighth place.
