“Watty (Liam Watt) has played it to me, and I’ve taken it inside,” he said.
“I just swung my left foot, to be honest, and it’s ended up in the top corner.”
The goal was Hamilton’s third in four games and the on-loan Livingston forward is loving his time in Fife, playing along with experienced forwards Ryan Wallace and Kevin Smith.

“Both are players I can learn a lot from.”
This weekend, East Fife travel to face League One title favourites Falkirk.
