Match Report
This was a pretty one-sided encounter, with Clydebank forcing the pace and scoring four glorious goals.
It took only seven minutes for Munro to put the Bankies ahead when he headed home a perfect O'Brien cross.
In the 33rd minute. Rovers were again in trouble when Munro hit an upright and Caskie catching the rebound smashed it home.
Clydebank took up where they left off in the second half, and Rovers were lucky to survive a good pass from Caskie that was headed against the bar by trialist Inside-left.
Clydebank hammered home another two goals when Caskie fired in a 25-yarder in the 65th minute and 10 minutes later their Inside left trialist headed home from an O'Brien corner.
Five minutes from the end, McGovern scored for Rovers.
