Clyde defender Craig Howie held his hands up for his howler and admitted captain Barry Cuddihy dug him out of a hole in their draw with champions Stenhousemuir.The Bully Wee were tied at 1-1 - with Robbie Leitch's opener cancelled out by an Edin Lynch strike - when the centre-back played a loose ball across midfield and Warriors ace Jordan Kirkpatrick pounced on the error to fire the Warriors in front with a thumping 25-yard strike.So Rutherglen man Howie was relieved to see Cuddihy pop up five minutes later and head home what proved to be a precious equaliser for the league's rock bottom side in their battle to avoid the pyramid play-off final next month."Barry has dug me out of a hole a wee bit," said the 27-year-old."I just have to own up to it.

The first one is a corner where their players got in front of one of the boys and the second one is a slack pass from me in the middle and the boy rifles it in from 25-yards."But we actually piled the pressure on after going 2-1 down and played a bit better."We got the goal back with a great header from Barry and we feel we should have won it with a couple of chances at the end."We just need to put that to the back of our minds now with another massive game coming up."The result left Clyde still a point behind nearest rivals Stranraer at the
