Taggart stepped up and his effort crashed off the underside of the crossbar and bounced back out.Eventually, referee Alan Newlands award Wasps the goal and denied Clyde what would have been just their third win of the season.Duffy - whose side are three points ahead of bottom club Peterhead, having played a game more - said: "I'm not convinced it was a penalty in the first place.
