Match Report

TTA report

Little to enthuse over. Rovers took the lead (20) but Newall scored from a McSpadyen cross (31) and again (58). Thistle were in control until the end but Rovers equalised (86) when their No 9 fisted the ball into the net unpunished. Thistle protested in vain. 2-goal Newall and Curran were best.
