"Football suicide" - After match interview with Sandy McLean

Largs Thistle manager Sandy McLean told the 'News' that his side committed 'footballing suicide' during Saturday's encounter with Vale of Clyde.

Thistle conceded twice in the first half and had Mark McColl sent off, before keeper Stephen Connick pulled off a marvellous penalty save.

Jamie Marks saw red for violence in the second half as did a Vale of Clyde player, and Thistle notched a consolation on 87 minutes from Willie McClure.
