Match Report

TTA report

Cup holders Kilmarnock were the better team for the first hour but inspired goalkeeping from Campbell and a superlative display by McMenemy held things together. 20 minutes from time Niven scored the only goal after a fine run and pass by Kinloch to earn 2 rather fortunate points. Up to 7th.
