Match Report

TTA report

Thistle (much-changed again) scored through Hainey (5). Falkirk missed a pen and although on the back foot they equalised (24). Brown scored from the spot (33) before Duffy made it 3-1 (46). Falkirk had their best spell after that and pulled a goal back (67). A first win but far from impressive, especially up front.
