Airdrie boss Ian Murray reckons there’s still plenty of time for his Diamonds to make up ground on league leaders Cove Rangers after they missed the chance to close the gap at the top of League One.On Saturday Airdrie were held to a 1-1 draw by Clyde as Cove fought back from 2-0 down to hold Alloa, maintaining their five point lead over Murray’s men.There is just nine games remaining of the campaign for the Diamonds to turn their deficit into a winning position.March will be a massive month in determining the champions with Airdrie facing Alloa on Saturday, followed by fifth-place Falkirk, fourth-place Queen’s Park and then Cove before the clocks go forward.But Murray said: “There’s a long way to go.
