Match Report

TTA report

Lots of spills, thrills and energy but little in the way of skill. Poor marking let Stockdale in for the opener (13) but Saints' equaliser was deserved (48). There was nothing much between the teams but McGeachy got the winner (77). St Mirren never managed to harness the wind.
