Clyde and Livingston were replaying their 3rd round tie tonight, at Broadwood, for the third time, after the initial game was abandoned due to heavy fog with Livi leading 0-1, and the first replay was postponed on account of a frozen pitch. Tonight, after 54 minutes, with Livi leading 1-2, it was abandoned, again, due to heavy fog.

They'll try for the 4th time on Wednesday night. Unbelievably, the ref restarted the game after half time, when the visibility was non-existent, yet called it off once the fog had started to lift, and you could see the entire pitch! Officials on both benches going nuts apparently. Third time the fans will have paid to travel/gain admission, as Clyde are not handing out vouchers!

Apprently Ref gave into heavy pressure from the Clyde fans, constant boos and abuse from the restart.

And abandoned within 15 minutes of full-time, as I recall.

Bremner and Harper the scorers??

And we got beaten in the replay.

We were 2-0 up with about 5 mins left, thing is it would have finished if their fans hadn't come on to the pitch a couple of times causing stoppages.

When the match was eventually played it finished 1-1 IIRC.

Not much doubt of the outcome of THIS replay anyway.

Currently 3rd division Livingston 7-1 Clyde, with 5 minutes to go!

Will Mr Moral Bain be complaining about the injustice here?
