Match Report

TTA report

Only Henderson (with some magnificent saves), McGowan, Curran and Husband came out of the game with any credit. Falkirk were streets ahead in teamwork and forward play, although it took them until just before half-time to score 2 quick goals (a low shot then a header at a corner). Thistle were well beaten when the 3rd came (84).
