Match Report

TTA report

St Mirren looked to have the game wrapped up at 3-0 (34) but they missed umpteen chances. Kinnell headed home a MacKenzie cross (44) and Davidson launched 40-yard cross from way out on the touchline that was missed by everyone (51) but a goal (77) killed off their revival. It could have been much worse.
