Match Report

TTA report

The 3rd game in 3 days was a high-scoring testimonial. St Mirren raced to a 2-goal lead in 10 minutes but McGregor scored on the break for 2-1. 3 more goals put the result beyond doubt although Robertson made it look more respectable before half-time thanks to careless defending. McDonald made it 5-3 soon after the break before Stewart missed a penalty.
