The struggling Scottish League Two side revealed at a board meeting in August that the side were facing 'significant' financial woes with £200,000 needed to address the deficit.

Clyde FC has launched a desperate bid to raise £55,000 as bosses have warned that the club is in 'serious trouble'.

Officials have so far managed to raise £135,000 including a recent donation of £15,000 from supporters. However, they say that a credible late intervention to bridge that gap fell through - forcing the side to launch a crowdfunding appeal. "The generosity of donors to date has contributed £135,000, which includes a recent £15,000 donation by supporters, to reduce the gap but a significant deficit remains. A credible late intervention to bridge that gap has fallen through and it is now necessary to move to general crowdfunding.

"Efforts will continue in the background to obtain material donations to reduce the burden on the majority, but we cannot defer any longer. Owners can be assured that the board are united as never before. We have embraced new members and is working as one to save our club.
