Injury Update

Following Saturday’s match against Albion Rovers, the club can provide an injury update on members of the first team squad.

It has been confirmed that club captain Kevin Nicoll, who went down awkwardly in the first half after competing for a header, has suffered a fractured clavicle and will be ruled out for a number of weeks.

Danny Lennon said:-

“It’s obviously a blow to lose Kevin, but he is still going to be an important figure for us within the squad, with the leadership that he brings to the dressing room. It’s a mark of the man that he was at training last night, in good spirits and supporting the rest of the players.

“We wish him well for his recovery and we look forward to him returning for some crucial matches nearer the end of the season.”

The Clyde manager continued with an update on forwards David Goodwillie, who suffered a broken arm against Berwick in January, and Ally Love, who missed the Albion match due to an ankle problem.

“David is making great progress,” he said. “He’s working closely with the medical staff and we are all working together to get him back as quickly as possible, but also as safely as possible.

“Ally is also making good progress and he has a chance of being involved at Hampden on Saturday.

“As we’ve always said, injuries will happen and it gives others an opportunity to come in and impress. I thought both Declan Fitzpatrick and Scott Banks did fantastically well on their debuts on Saturday.”
