Clyde have announced they will continue to play home matches in Hamilton “for the foreseeable future” following doubts over the League 2 club’s tenancy.

The New Douglas Park stadium is run by Hamilton Academical’s former owners, with the both clubs paying rent to use it.

Last month, Clyde had expressed fears that a five-year agreement signed in 2022 was under threat. Given the uncertainty, the SPFL agreed to extend registration details for next season.

But Clyde now say they are “in a position to commit to New Douglas Park for the foreseeable future”.

A club statement adds: “This has been a challenging time for the club and for the supporters. Having navigated it successfully, we must extend our thanks to those clubs and individuals who worked with us on alternative proposals. Their co-operation and professionalism has been greatly appreciated.”

Meanwhile, Hamilton Accies will have their case against a 15-point deduction heard on 1 May.

As it stands, Accies have been relegated from the Championship following the penalty for breaching multiple rules, including the “provision of incorrect information regarding stadium ownership”.

The Championship season ends on 2 May, with Hamilton away to leaders Falkirk.
