Albion Rovers gained their first point of the season with a 1-1 draw against Elgin at Cliftonhill.

But the home side will be left wondering how on earth they didn't get all three.

They conceded a shock fifth minute goal to the visitors as Stephen Clinton struck the net.

Rovers dominated for long periods but only cruel luck and good goalkeeping by Elgin's Martin Pirie prevented them from equalising.

After the break Rovers continued to control matters and although Elgin had Alan Morris dismissed in the 53rd minute it was not until 14 minutes from the end that Robert Clyde hit the net with a powerful header.
