A second half blitz from Stirling Albion ended all hopes the Bankies had of triumph and mades ure the Stirlingshire cup remained in the county it was named after.
In a recent match when these two sides played at Kilbowie, the result was a 0-0 draw - and that was how the score stood at half time last Thursday night at Brockville.
But after the interval, Stirling really went to town - ably assisted by some rubbish play from the Bankies. I say four of the Stirling goals were gifted by Clydebank.
An out of character, slack, headed clearance from Davie Mitchell was picked up by winger Lawson, who ran 35 yards with the ball, worming his way past the defence to score a good goal.
A slip-up by Bobby Love sent Steele away and McMillan took a pass from the inside-man to put Stirling two up.
There seemed some hope of a fight back when Alan Munro headed home a Love free-kick. but five minutes later it was 3-1 after more atrocious defensive play allowed McMillan in with the easiest of chances.
McDonald was forced to give away a penalty after Tommy McGhee was caught in possession. Stevenson scored from the spot. Lawson scored his own second and his sides fifth goal five minutes from time.
To round off a really miserable evening for the Bankies, Dougie Hay was booked. An injury to Jim Fallon in the first half saw him playing most of the match hobbling about the forward line. It could have been a deciding factor in the game but, really, Bankies can have few excuses. The best ream won on the night.
