Brian Cameron struggling to be fit for Elgin

Elgin midfielder Brian Cameron is a major doubt ahead of the Ladbrokes Championship play-off semi-final against Clyde.

Clyde are 3-1 up from the first leg and everyone else in the Borough Briggs squad is available to manager Jim Weir.

Weir said: "This would be a terrific game to get the first goal in even if it does not come until the second half. If we could get ahead it would change the momentum in the tie and give us a real target to aim for.

"Similarly if Clyde get ahead the dynamics will change as they could then decide to lock everything down."

Knee injuries have again ruled out Brian McQueen, Jon-Paul McGovern and Scott Ferguson for the Bully Wee with Scott Durie absent due to a groin injury.

John Gemmell is included despite a niggling calf problem with manager Barry Ferguson back in charge after missing the first game as he was attending a UEFA Pro-License course.

Ferguson said: "I was in regular contact with the coaching staff before, during and after the first leg and I am delighted at how it went. We have the lead but we will go to Elgin and look to add to it as opposed to sitting in and defending."
