Match Report

TTA report

The teams only managed to get going with the strong wind at their backs. Thistle took the lead when a long cross/shot by Gray was knocked in by Whittle (20) but Falkirk equalised from the spot after McLachlan had punched the ball off the goal line (22). It was mostly Falkirk after that.
