Match Report

TTA report

Despite both teams being desperate for points it was a lacklustre first half. Ex-JAG Whitelaw scored while McKinnon was off for treatment (36). Thistle finally got going and Flanagan equalised against his old mates (75) then Duncan prodded in a McParland corner (77) before Roxburgh eased the tension by rounding the keeper (87).
