Match Report

TTA report

Harvey and Arbroath's No 9 were sent off (throwing punches, 44). Thistle should have won comfortably. They hit the post 3 times and looked to have won it when Fleming scored after Duffy had hit the post (80) but increasingly robust Arbroath scored (85). Hogan was carried off before a vital Niven save (90).
