Match Report

TTA report

Thistle were lucky to get a draw and only the defence took any credit from the game. The forwards were either poor or marked too tightly. Gourlay scored on the hour to cancel out a first half opener by Rovers (14). That said, Rovers, with the bulk of possession, seldom threatened Henderson.
