Battling Fifers claim point
Posted Tuesday, March 09, 2010 by PA
Nine-man East Fife came from behind to claim a 1-1 draw with basement club Clyde.
In a lively first half, both keepers had to produce superb saves, with the Bully Wee's Callum Reidford denying Robert Linn twice and Paul McManus, while the visitors' Michael Brown tipped John Stewart's header over the crossbar.
It was Clyde who opened the scoring on the stroke of half-time when Alistair Park's low 20-yard effort could not be kept out by Reidford.
Any thoughts the visitors had of claiming a first win in five league games were dashed when Stuart Cargill equalised for the Fifers in the 64th minute with a neat 12-yard finish.
McManus received a straight red card for violent conduct in the 77th minute, while 13 minutes later Jonathan Smart was dismissed for a poor challenge on Kris Doolan.
However, East Fife managed to hold to claim a share of the spoils.
