Match Report

TTA report

A bad tempered match. Ness hit the post then a Torbet pen made it 1-0 (15, hotly disputed). Jackson was busy and Falkirk had a goal disallowed but they scored (60), Thistle protesting it was hand ball. Torbet converted another pen (85) resulting in stone throwing and demonstrations at the end.
