Match Report

TTA report

A great run and cross by McSpadyen set up Wallace for a tap-in (36). McGregor went off injured (60) but McKennan beat a couple of men and scored 2 minutes later. It was a drab end of season affair. “Neither side over-exerted themselves” (GH). Thistle were flattered by the score. Falkirk played well.
