Match Report

TTA report

Rovers took the game to Thistle from the start and deservedly scored from 6 yards (14) after several shots were only half cleared. Slowly Thistle gathered momentum and went close several times before Stott scored (58) with a “screaming grounder” (ET) to earn a difficult trip to Kirkcaldy.
