East Fife winger Scott McBride has suffered a setback in his bid to get back to full fitness and help the side in their fight against relegation.
The 24-year-old has been missing since his side’s first game of the year with a hip problem and manager Gary Naysmith is not able to put a date on when he will come back.
Naysmith said: “This injury is proving troublesome as we thought that Scott was on the way back in January.
“However. it turned out to be more severe than originally thought. He looked to be coming back as well recently but he suffered a set-back and now we are not sure when he will be available.
