Match Report

TTA report

Newly promoted East Fife more than held their own and scored (header, 19) and with a rebound off the bar (45). Although Sharp was the best forward on view, his fellow forwards dithered and wasted good chances. Brown drove Thistle on and brought out some fine saves but his mates were no help.
