Match Report

TTA report

Introduction of red and yellow. Rovers hit the bar then a fine move down the left led to newly promoted Rovers scoring with a shot that left Johnstone helpless (11). Thistle couldn't break down a solid home defence and another move down the left led to the scorer (who could easily have had a hat-trick) rounding Donnelly and picking his spot (70).
