Match Report

TTA report

In thick snow and mud, Clydebank had more than 60% possession but their forwards were feckless. Marshall shot home when a clearance hit the referee and rebounded into his path then Bowie added a 2nd before half-time. Marshall scored again before Clydebank (90) but it was an unimpressive win.
