Alex Younger played under the psuedonym of “Smith”. We stick with the brace for Alex Younger as per OH, though he's billed as “Smith” in the DR/SC.

Match Report

TTA report

“'Firhill for Thrills' could aptly be applied to this encounter“ (DR). A pulsating game with some man to man passing that was a delight to watch. The goalkeeping on view was also top-notch. Twice Clyde went in front but goals by Younger and Sharp made it 2-2 at half-time. Younger put Thistle ahead but Clyde levelled (81).
