Match Report
Three goals and three bookings - and its the bookings which will be remembered. Referee Crawford jotted down three names - Walker, Jenkins and Young.
The game was marred by a gale force wind which played havoc with attempts at constructive soccer. It led indirectly to Clydebank's first goal when both centre Moore and keeper Ritchie mis-judged the ball.
Clydebank keeper Madden was also caught out by the wind when Knox scored. Just before the end Russell left the field with an injured leg.
