Clyde can climb League One, says player of the month Jordan Allan

Clyde star Jordan Allan is confident his side can start to climb the League One table after being named player of the month for November.

The Clyde striker has banged in nine goals this season, but knows his side still face relegation fears with just nine points from their 16 matches so far.

Allan hit successive doubles as Clyde drew 2-2 with league-leaders Dunfermline and 3-3 with Falkirk, and believes new boss Jim Duffy can drive them over the festive period and beyond.

As second-bottom Clyde prepare to host FC Edinburgh in a league crunch at New Douglas Park on Saturday, Allan said: "Many people will see draws against Dunfermline and Falkirk as decent results but where we are right now, we're not happy with just taking a point in games.

"We want three points from every game and that's the level we're trying to aim for.

"We're facing another team at the top end of the table on Saturday in FC Edinburgh and hopefully we can put in a good performance and get a decent result.

"League positions don't lie and we're right down there at the moment but we now have a clean slate since the new manager has come in.

"We're now concentrating on the games that we have in front of us rather than dwelling on previous results."

Experienced Duffy has already made his mark on the Bully Wee, and Allan said: "Training has been good - he's implemented his own style of play and his own tactical and technical methods and I'm really enjoying it.

"We've had a couple of decent results against the top two teams in the league and we felt we should maybe have got more out of both games but that's football."
